I needed to replace my mustard yellow Hamilton Beach hand mixer, circa 1980, so opted for the Cuisinart. Little did I know that these wire whisks would be so magical. In the old days, I would stand there whipping cream endlessly with my old mixer. This time I had a recipe that required my Kitchenaid stand mixer for the cream cheese part of the filling and another bowl for the whipping cream portion. I only have one bowl so whipped the cream in my big Pampered Chef measuring bowl. I started of slow and kicked it up eventually to whip. Wow. It was done so fast that I was afraid I was about to make butter. Well done Cuisinart!

After fewer than a dozen uses only speeds 2, 3, and 4 work, and 2 is too fast to blend dry ingredients.

Very powerful mixer

Comedically powerful. I live in fear of it. This is a weapons grade beast that will splatter your walls with zero care for convince. Rock hard butter, bread dough, frozen chocolate chips, I half believe it could pulverize rock. There is no light setting. Just war. Needs a weaker starting speed and better vibration protection. Exceptionally loud

About this about a month ago i bought this mixer and I'm fairly pleased with it. I do find that this is heavy and a little on the big side. What I don't like about it is, in position 1 it still goes super fast and splatters everything everywhere. One should be slow and then graduate to fast or faster.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Worst Mixer ever! Lower speeds are way to fast and one of the beaters stopped spinning only after a few uses? Tried to find a way to return it or have it repaired but couldn't find a site?
