Product Description

Amazon.com Review

An old-fashioned hand beater comes in handy even if a kitchen is equipped with electric beaters and mixers. Sometimes the chore is too small or the need too urgent to bother with electric cords and elaborate cleanup. When those times arrive--beating eggs, blending pancake batter, whipping cream or egg whites--this sturdy tool is just the ticket. Its beaters are heavy-duty, 18/10 stainless steel, so they won't interact with acidic foods. The handle and gear are polished aluminum, and both grips are tough plastic. Dishwasher-safe. --Fred Brack

4.0 out of 5 stars Nylon gears, October 26, 2010

Well, the nylon gears work well but I have wonderful nostalgic memories of my mother's hand-held egg beater -- with the metal gears -- that thing was turbocharged in the right hands. So I look at the nylon gears and say -- "when will they strip? Will a piece fly off and fall into the batter unbeknownst to me? Will I be able to get the gears replaced? Do I even WANT to replace the gears???

That said -- well ... what else can I say -- Keep one in case the power goes but your (gas) oven is alive and well and you want to cook by candlelight (set those candles on a safe fireproof petproof surface please) -- this hand-beater does the job.

And you don't have to remember to turn it off and unplug it once the batter has been poured and you want to lick all that tasty sugary stuff that's left on the beaters.

Bought this specific products for the price and that it was metal. First one I had to return because the beaters would get stuck, second one works much better. Still sometimes it hesitates, but for quick and easy mixing I love having it in the kitchen.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good mixer, does the job it was intended for, August 24, 2009

For the plusses, it does its job and it was inexpensive. The only minus is that the wire bar at the bottom is a little taller than my old one, so it does not get down to the bottom of the bowl quite as well. I'm still a bit undecided about the nylon gears. The small gears at the top of the beaters are nylon and I'm a little afraid they will strip or wear quickly. I guess only time will tell.
