My grandmother gave me one years ago but it got ruined so I knew some day I would replace it! I am in love with this mixer it is so easy to use and works great! With my hands not like they used to be this is so worth it to use! Plus I love that it comes in colors! The bowl is nice size plus stainless steal and the 3 attachments are well made! I also like that it has the plastic cover and pour area so you can add without stopping it! This is so well made!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've had this model mixer for about 5 months and have used it almost daily. It handles well with a few pros and cons. Pros: the bowl size - that extra .5 allows me to double my cookie dough recipe which I absolutely love. It is lightweight - compared to other brands, this mixer is lightweight which allows it to be easily moved if you don't have the counter space to leave it out. Sleek design - the design is appealing and easily fits in with several kitchen designs. Now for the cons: the bowl is wide all the way down but the attachments aren't any wider than a standard attachment. That leaves a lot of unmixed dough, flour, ingredients around the bottom of the bowl. This is especially frustrating with bigger batches of cookies (I like to make bigger batches for freezing). The feet constantly pop out. The bowl lock is at the back of the mixer which means I have to pull the mixer out each time I use it and push it back when done. The feet fall out every time. They grip onto the counter but not to the mixer. The power knob is, well a knob. This is troubling when in the middle of mixing. Your hands have to be really clean to have enough grip to turn the knob so after cracking an egg or adding a stick of butter, of course you need clean hands to make any type of food, but you have to really wipe down your hands after most ingredients to turn the knob. There is a sort of power surge when you turn the power up, it jerks a little then slows. Despite the cons, which are simple inconveniences, I do like this mixer. It came with the pour shield which is a huge plus and it handles big batches of icing and cookies well. It has a soft hum as it works and has a generous sized power cord.

I've had this mixer for about 4 months now, and baking cannot be more fun. I can clean or do other things while the mixer does all the mixing, my arms don't hurt like they do when I use hand-held mixer, aaaand it's pretty to look at.
