This is the first stand mixer that I have ever owned, but so far I love it. I am planning on making about 7 cakes for my wedding in September ( which is why I got a stand mixer) and I have been practicing and this mixer has made life so easy. My 12 year old daughter and 9 year old son love to use it too.
I bake bread every week. The mixer head wobbles back and forth while kneading the dough. Also, the flange on the dough hook is not wide enough to prevent dough from climbing over it and upward to the mixer body.
I bought this mixer because arthritis makes it difficult for me to move heavy objects. Otherwise I would have bought a Kitchen Aid.
OH MY GOSH...TALK ABOUT A GREAT MIXER. I BAKE ON A REGULAR BASIS FOR MY HUSBAND AND MY GRANDSON... BOY THIS MIXER DOES IT ALL. LOVE THE POWER. THE ATTACHEMENTS ARE GREAT AND MAKE FOR EASY CLEAN UP. FROM COOKIES TO BROWNIES TO PIES TO CAKES & ICINGS THIS ONE DOES IT ALL AND MORE ECONOMICAL THAN THE KITCHENAID.
A new addition to our kitchen, we are VERY impressed with the performance of this mixer. It's extremely quiet, and the very large motor has plenty of power for just about anything. For years, KitchenAid was the only choice in the large mixer market, but since they started making all of them overseas, quality just isn't there, anymore. In fact, we started out with a KitchenAid, and decided to return it to the store where purchased.
The Hamilton Beach 63220 Mixer will not let you down. It is a breeze to operate. It is quite heavy duty, being about the same size as most of the smaller model KitchenAid models. Plan accordingly for storage.
This model has remained essentially unchanged for a few years now. My unit was manufactured in Canada. I feel more confident about quality than I ever would from the current KitchenAid models.
I purchased this machine cause at the time I could not afford a Kitchen Aid. This machine is ideal for mixing frosting made with vegetable shortening as this can become stiff and put strain on your regular mixer motor (I can testify I lost two hand mixers). The other attachments has proven to be useful as well, I used the dough hook to make fondant and was satisfied with the results. I appreciate the fact the mixer is quiet and I mean quiet it does not disturb anyone while I work, clean up is easy as well. The thing that dissapointed me with this product is that it does not have any further attachments,eg. pasta machine etc. But overall I would recommend this product.
