Excellent Mixer This is, indeed, a heavy-duty mixer. I received it quickly and it works great. However, it is VERY heavy and tall. You need a counter top that will accommodate the heighth so you do not have to move it to use it. Also, for anyone with an older home it requires a three-pronged outlet. Nevertheless, I’m very happy with this mixer.
Great Item for a Great Price This is an excellent price for this mixer. So far its stood up to everything I could throw at it.Some of my bread recipes call for more flour than the smaller mixers can comfortably handle, so I needed a stronger mixer. Comes with all the default attachments (whisk, paddle, Spiral dough hook)
LOVE IT! This baby is hardcore. I never realized just what a difference a little power could make. This mixer has simplified, improved outcomes and cut time off everything I have used it for. So far I have made bundt cake, cheesecake filling, bread dough, dips and spreads, etc. with glowing results.
