...but you have to be careful with it,

This review is from: Hamilton Beach 62695V Power Deluxe Hand Mixer (Kitchen)
This is an addendum to my earlier review on this product, which is now "resting in peace" (more precisely, pieces).I burned it out the other night while making a batch of oatmeal chocolate chip cookies (the dough for these is heavier than the tollhouse recipe I tested in my first review). A puff of white smoke was my only warning -- in fact, it wasn't really a warning, but the signal that my mixer would mix no more. I opened the appliance to see if a fusible link had protected the motor. Alas, there was nothing like that, just light-gauge wires and springs that popped out. The motor died, and the motor is the heart of the mixer. Still, I want to let my 4-star rating stand, with the warning that this mixer is really meant for lighter-duty use. It still represents a good value. Just be aware that if you're doing things like mixing heavy doughs, you'd really be better off with a small stand mixer.

Disgusting and dangerous - Chrome plating flaked off the beaters into my cake,

Stay away from this product. It should be recalled. I was using this mixer for only the second time. I made a simple cake and while pouring it into the cake pan, I noticed dark little bits that turned out to be little metal colored flakes. I inspected the beater and saw that it was shedding chrome plating. You get what you pay for but I would think it would be cheaper to NOT plate the beaters and certainly cheaper not to face a recall.

This review is from: Hamilton Beach 62695V Power Deluxe Hand Mixer (Kitchen)
I cook for a family of 5.
I make a lot of mashed potatoes that need whipping. I have gone through my share of hand mixers. So far I don't have any complaints about this hamilton beach model. It is powerful enough to whip up the potatoes. It comes with a case that fits right onto the bottom of the mixer that holds the cord and the beaters. This is wonderful since I no longer have to search through the drawers looking for the beaters. Over all a wonderful mixer for the money if your just looking for a normal household hand mixer.
