Hamilton Beach 3.5 Quart Stand Mixer for Kitchen, 6 Speeds, Tilt-Head, Dough Hook, Whisk & Flat Beater, Black

This mixer works really well, I tested whipping cream, kneading cooky dough and batter with the three beaters. Everything works well. If you want to whip cream, make sure it is cold and the amount is not very much, e.g. 400ml. I poured in 1L and it didn't whip, but it is not the machine problem, just follow the instructions.

My wife loves it. After retiring she took up baking as a hobby. I love that. This mixer has the same orbital mixing function as the much more expensive Kitchenaid and the same three basic attachments - dough hook, whisk and paddle. It seems powerful enough for what we use it for. Hasn’t bogged down yet. The mixing bowl is on the small side but that hasn’t been a problem for family use. Easily accommodates enough batter for two or three cakes. I gave it three stars (average) for durability because e we only had it for two months. Like most people we have limited counter space and this mixer takes up as much room as a coffee maker. At one third the price and half the size of a Kitchenaid it is perfect for our needs.
