Whether you should buy this Hamilton Beach stand mixer really depends on what you need from a mixer and how you’ll use it. It’s a solid, affordable model that’s great for buyers on a budget. If you want a mixer for occasional use it’s a great choice, though it might not last long if you use it regularly, especially for heavier tasks, such as mixing and kneading dough.

This beater set is the perfect accessory for the busy cook and baker, who has recipes that call for multiples mixtures or when preparing many dishes at the same time. The batter you are mixing may be too thick for the mixer to handle. Bread dough should only be kneaded using the dough hooks, as they are designed to work with high torque.

The fold option is handy for folding in delicate ingredients as well as for the initial mixing of ingredients that might fly out of the bowl at higher speeds. Sometimes you find things in the most unexpected of places. While visiting a friend in Vermont I stopped in a small consignment store in the little town of White River Junction, Vermont (Pop. 2,286), and a box in the corner caught my eye. In it was an old stand mixer, and though it was covered in grime, nonfunctional, and lacking its beaters, I knew I had found a gem. If the recipes you like to make include thick doughs, a more powerful motor will be well worth any additional cost.

Our award-winning eclectrics® Stand Mixers are all-metal, powerful appliances that offer excellent mixing performance and precise control at every speed. All Hamilton Beach® Stand Mixers are designed for tough mixing and can handle even the thickest cookie or bread hamilton beach juicer dough. In the world of baking, there are stand mixer people, and there are hand mixer people. Yes, many stand mixer people have hand mixers, and many hand mixer people have stand mixers, but you know the one you turn to when you’ve got a batter to whip together.

Unlike all the other mixers we reviewed, the Hamilton Beach’s attachments simply went straight into the sockets where they were supposed to go, and you pull them straight out to remove them. With other mixers, we always had to turn an attachment either to the left or right to just the right alignment to unlock it and then pull it out. The lack of locking attachments isn’t a big deal, but in our opinion isn’t as safe. This is an inexpensive mixer, making it affordable for just about anyone who needs to ditch the hand mixer and upgrade to something easier. It’s not the largest or most robust mixer, but it did almost everything we asked it to do.
