 You Can't beat KitchenAid! September 2, 2006

This is my third KitchenAid hand mixer. My first was a three speed, my second a five speed and now I have the nine speed. Each one has had more power than the last. This is light weight and has an easy to use digital speed control that is not in your way when you are using the mixer. I always wanted the KitchenAid stand mixer, but when my children were home, I couldn't afford it and now that I can afford it, the hand mixers from KitchenAid have made me realize its just not necessary to have the big one that takes up a lot of counter space. The nine speed is wonderful. The lower two speeds are for stirring. My other two mixers didn't have that capability. I was surprised how much power this mixer has. If you don't have the room or don't want to spend the money to buy a big stand mixer, buy this one. It's a great little mixer with a lot of power.
 Great Power and Speeds for a Handheld Mixer March 24, 2006

I just used this mixer for the first time. It is true that the low speeds are very low, and this is a great feature. I really like the electronic speed control. The mixer appears to be able to maintain speed even if what is being mixed is extra heavy. The only drawback is the placement of the cord for a left handed user, which I am. It places the cord awkwardly over what is being mixed. It is hard to understand why KitchenAid allowed this design flaw to happen. If this flaw weren't present, I'd have rated it five stars.
What a workhorse--I love it!! September 14, 2006

This mixer is such a workhorse; it is always up for any amount of mixing you want to do. I have a black one that came with accessories--dough hooks, whisk, and drink mixer rod. What impressed me the most, along with the normal mixing and whisking, is when I used the dough hooks to mix a LARGE amount of ground beef mixture that I was preparing to make a couple of meat loaves and meatballs with. It tackled it with ease.
If you want a hand mixer that you will have for years and years, this is the one. I've had other hand mixers (wedding gifts) but none of them compared to the KitchenAid one.

Superior product--powerful, sturdy and easy to use. Performs a multitude of mixing tasks--handy for small to medium-sized jobs. Plus, Kitchen Aid's rebate system was fast. Overall, completely satisfied.
 It's ok but there's got to be a better one... November 24, 2006

I got this hand held mixer after my Cuisinart died. I had the Cuisinart with the timer and when I went to replace it I couldn't find it so thought it was no longer made (though I think now I may have been mistaken). Anyway, I read the reviews on this mixer and it sounded good so I bought it about a year ago and now I can't understand the rave reviews. I find the handle to be small and uncomfortable and I don't have large hands; it is tilted at a funny angle and it's too tight. The power is certainly adequate for whipping cream and light batters but really grinds away at anything heavy. The cord is at a strange angle which makes storing it in a drawer difficult, not impossible though. Anyway, I find myself avoiding using it--the opposite of how I felt about my Cuisinart timer. I recommend skipping this one if you do a lot of baking.
