4.0 out of 5 stars Just What I Had Hoped For!, January 9, 2007

This review is from: West Bend 41135 12-Speed Stand Mixer with 2 Mixing Bowls, White (Kitchen)

I have owned and used several different mixers, including the expensive one which I gave away because I didn't like it at all. Another Famous Brand I owned was so lightweight, it would move around on the counter while in use and would not turn the bowl, therefore, I had to stand there and continously scrape the bowl.
I am only giving the West Bend 41135 four stars because it is not perfect but it does come close! The bowl turns, there is room to add ingredients without stopping the motor, and raising the beaters, it is heavy enough to stay in place, it can be used as a hand mixer, and it has all the speeds anyone could want or need. If the mfg. had just color coded the beaters and the holes they belong in, they could be inserted quickly and easily. But that is no big deal--only a minor thing. I have color coded them myself so now, it is my dream machine! I am a proud and happy owner of this West Bend mixer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very pleased. Good buy in stand mixer., June 14, 2007

I have had several mixers, and this is a good one. It is quiet, something that cannot be said for many mixers. It does not spatter. It blends really well. Some reviewers have complained about confusion about which beater goes into which hole, and the instruction manual is confusing on this matter. It appears that the beaters and their holes have been changed to remove the confusion, all since those reviews and the instruction book were written. One beater has a hexagonal metal piece at the insertion end, while the other has a circular one. The mixer, in turn, has correspondingly shaped holes, and this removes all potential for confusion. Very pleased!

4.0 out of 5 stars Better than my Kitchenaid Artisan, March 25, 2008

By

This review is from: West Bend 41125 12-Speed Stand Mixer with 2 Mixing Bowls, Black (Kitchen)

Of the three mixers I bought in the last year this one satisfies me the most. It's got a wide bowl making it thus easier to add ingredients to. It's more like the mixers of the past which were actually better than the ones that are currently being promoted.

It's apparent that commercial interests are seizing on certain products or types of manufacture, and forcing the consumers to be satisfied with the shoddier inferior products being foisted on us. All this comes from China. The exploiters get more profit and benefit from trading with China, thus others options are being suppressed.

I've had some perturbing experiences with products in the last few years. I bought first a Sunbeam mixer. It was junk!

I sent it back and bought next the Kitchen aid. It weighs a ton, and is thus difficult to move around or maneuver into position for various uses. The bowl is tall, which for when whipping cream or egg whites is desirable, but it's rather a tight fit to the machine making it difficult to add ingredients to. The plastic device that is supposed to be used for adding ingredients can't satisfactorily be used for certain things, like adding boiled sugar to whipped egg whites.
