4.0 out of 5 stars hand mixer, November 9, 2006

This mixer is fine. I get a kick out of the storage case. It reminds me of a suitcase. I guess they provide it in case I want to travel with it. I never leave the state without my hand mixer! All kidding aside, the mixer is very powerful. The only drawback is the eject button is somewhat hard to use. The beaters don't want to eject easily.

4.0 out of 5 stars Reasonably Priced Lightweight Mixer With Handy Carrying Case, June 23, 2010

This review is from: Oster Inspire 2529 6-Speed Hand Mixer with Storage Case (Kitchen)

I purchased this mixer a year ago and couldn't be happier with its performance. It is lightweight, sufficiently powerful, comes with an assortment of beaters and has a nice carrying case to keep everything together so there is no rummaging about in the utensil drawer trying to locate the beaters.

A hand mixer does things that a stand mixer simply can't do. It is just easier to mash (not puree where a blender or food processor is needed) a pot of pea soup or mashed potatoes in the pan it cooked in rather than pour the contents into a stand mixer bowl. And, for mixing small quantities, it is impractical to use a large stand mixer where most of the small batch ends up stuck on the beater and sides of the large bowl.

My last hand mixer shorted-out in a spectacular blaze of sparks and noisy popping. The mixer was ten years old and it was fortunate I wasn't injured. The electrical cord was not shielded properly at the point where it exits the plastic housing of the mixer chassis. I didn't notice, but over time the rough edge of the plastic cut through the cord. I was lucky, although I remain surprised that this serious safety flaw passed inspection. Obviously I checked to ensure this Oster mixer has protection at that vulnerable point.

When I began shopping for a new hand mixer I read the reviews on the higher priced models, intending to buy one that would last, but they seemed to have an assortment of issues along with a short life-span. This moderately priced unit had everything I needed, along with a carrying case. I made the purchase in a warehouse store.

This mixer is designed for light weight tasks - not mixing three batches of cookie dough which will strain even the most powerful stand mixers. But, if light duty -- mashed potatoes, mashing up some soup, whipping up some eggs, etc. -- is what's required, this mixer will do the job.

I got this for my wife and she really enjoys it. It is very powerful. We haven't had any issues with it. The price is right on this one. I would suggest it to anyone.
