Cuisinart Electric Hand Mixer, 9 Speeds, Extra Long Beaters, 220W

Great mixer! Good quality! I love the 9 speeds. I never had a nine speed mixer before and its great because it starts slow enough that it doesn't cause flour dust to go everywhere. Also after mixing the beaters have a lot less batter/dough stuck to them. The whisk attachment is handy and works well in bowls that are a bit narrow at the bottom. The storage container for attachments and cord with mixer sitting on top is very nice. I gave this mixer 5 stars because i feel it is a great value and really good product.

i just got this yesterday. I was tired of lugging out the mix master to make cookies so i bought this. I had made a batch of peanut butter cookies with the mix master 2 days ago. When i got this today I tried to make a batch with the Cusinart Power Advantage 9 speed. The cookies turned out even better than with the mix master. The machine is SO easy to use. I did not have any of the problems people had with the initial slow speed; I guess if you were mixing liquids maybe but i had no problem at all with butter & sugar. It went thru the peanut butter, butter & sugar so effortlessly that i added the flour & let it mix that also. I only had it on 5 and i felt it had power to spare. It really is a pleasure to use. I love how the controls are set up, and the eject button is very cool. It was not loud at all, the attachments are great and when you're using it, its very stable and even.. It does not feel heavy at all, in fact i felt it was very light. I think its a great value. Really could not be happier with it.

Great hand mixer! Actually has different speeds that work. My old hand mixer only did one speed even tho there were different settings. I got this on sale and it was a great deal. Easy to operate and clean. Highly recommend.

I have been using this hand mixer for almost 2 years now. While I may not use it daily or even multiple times each week (depending on the week), I do seem to use it several times a month. I thus far I have not had any difficulties with it. The following are the things I really like about it: - The simple easy to use on/off and speed buttons being at the top - The 9 different speeds. I like how it starts at a slow speed to prevent splattering and the gradual ability to build up the speed. Which the higher up it goes, can be very aggressive. - The solid, non flimsy feeling I have when using it. It isn't heavy but yet isn't too lightweight either. For me it is just the right weight. - The motor has remained strong. I haven't experienced any lagging, whining noises, or the smell of the motor being overworked. The attachments have also always mixed at consistent speeds. - The swivel cord I really, really like! It allows me to position and maneuver the mixer however is most comfortable for me depending on what I am mixing. Plus overall the cord length is nice. - The latch release I greatly prefer. I feel safer having a button that I deliberately need to press to release the attachments. - I like the beaters and chef's whisk attachments. So far there has been no rusting of any of the attachments. - The storage area is nice. I like being able to store the cord and attachments all in one place. While it does still latch easily, I have noticed recently though that there are times when I pick it up by the mixer handle, the mixer comes up off the storage area instead of the whole unit coming together. This by no means is a deal breaker for me, I have just started to grab it by the storage case instead of by the mixer handle. The following are a few observations or things that could be improved: - The dough hooks seem to be most effective with cookie doughs and lighter bread mixes. - The recent inconsistent ability to be able to pick the entire unit up by just the mixer handle when attached to the storage area. As picking it up this way is a preference, however it is still very easy to pick the whole thing up by the storage area and this is like the only tiny pet peeve I have about this product. As I stated up above, this is in no way a deal breaker. Before we bought this, we thoroughly read many reviews and here are a few additional thoughts I have from using it these past 2 years. I in no way feel this mixer is dangerous or that I need to take any extraordinary precautions when using it. As with any appliance, you just have to be mindful of your surroundings and make safe choices. I know some have indicated that the attachments can fall out, I have only had this happen once and it was when I didn't put them into their matching openings. Another reviewer spoke to this and I want to reiterate, there are two different fitted holes for the attachments. Each hole looks slightly different, as do the tops of the attachments. If you correspond them appropriately, I have never had an attachment fall out. When I did make this mistake, the beaters fell out as soon as I pointed the mixer slightly downward, way before I turned it on and then I realized the mistake and just switched them. It was not a big deal at all and just reminded me that I need to be mindful about this before inserting them. Lastly, while getting everything into the storage container can be a little tight, once I figured out how to have everything organized so I could still close it, I've just continued putting everything in there that same way and have had no difficulties with making everything fit. Overall, I have really enjoyed this mixer and would absolutely buy it again!

This review is after the initial use of the mixer. First impression out of the box was impressive. It was well packaged and the product looked perfect. I would have given this 5 stars for the power alone except that I do not like the initial surge this particular mixer has. I am accustomed to starting my mixer on a low setting and going up on speed while the blades are in the mix so not to splatter the mix everywhere. I was quite surprised when I started this mixer in the mixing bowl and the surge nearly sent the contents all over...I managed to pull the mixer out of the mix as soon as I 'heard' the surge. I had to look again at the setting to ensure it was on 1, and then I wondered if I got a defective mixer for all the power on the first setting. Since I had already given my Kitchenaid Architect 9 speed mixer to one of my best friends after her mixer died, I didn't have a back up other than the big Kitchenaid Professional stand mixer, which was too big for this small job. So I decided to tough it out with the new Cuisinart. What I found was it quickly finished the mixing in less than two minutes, if that. Impressive, powerful...even on the lowest setting. I did notice it finally slowed a little as the mixing completed. If you want a powerful hand mixer and are in a hurry to get mixing done, this is the tool...as long as you are fully aware of the initial surge of power as it eventually adjusts to the speed you selected. I would personally prefer a slow start feature like the Kitchenaid Architect has, but this Cuisinart is more powerful and will more likely survive dough mixing better...though the big stand mixer is preferable for dough mixing. Also, storing all the mixing tools and the cord in the handy plastic case attachment hasn't been a problem. (Hint: I kept the original cord tie that the cord was originally packaged.) Place the mixing tools in the plastic case so that the mixing ends are facing opposite each other. With the cord, accordian the cord, and then use the original cord tie that came with the mixer (or get a velcro cord tie from the local hardware store) to tie the cord together. This will keep it as one unit within the plastic case. Set the wrapped cord in the plastic case. The mixer has a fat rounded end that tapers to a smaller flat end; so be careful to turn the same shaped case the right way before attempting to snap it in place. Since the cord is already inside the case, I snap that cord end of the mixer in with the small, flat end of the case before snapping the fat end into place. I don't see this plastic case outlasting the mixer in the years to come, but for the time it remains functional, I am going to enjoy being able to store all it's mixing blades in one location with the mixer.

Great mixer, powerful. I didn't experience the too fast start some people said they did. It mixes well and I like the tool storage box that the mixer sits on. Much better than my prior mixer.

Great hand held mixer! Changing speeds works easy. Easy to wipe off.

We purchased one of these mixers in in brushed silver/chrome on April 24th, 2016, ($79.99 then) and it has always worked perfectly. It is used for cakes, cookies, breads, potatoes, etc - usually once or twice a week. It never had a problem until recently, when the plastic push button on the top cracked into 3 sections and dropped inside the case. I also noted the cord is worn, with the outer plastic covering coming off the wiring at the base of the mixer. So figured it is time for a new one. Since color didn't matter, we opted for one in white at $59, vs $99 for another brushed silver/chrome model. ($20 price increase in 9 years). While waiting for the new one, I started thinking about possibly repairing the old one. The re-wiring wouldn't be a problem, but the button looked like a potential issue. An on line check found a video showing a reviewer taking the mixer apart for a comprehensive review of the components , and was very helpful. BUT, it described the electronic design and components as fairly cheap, with a number of shortcuts taken in motor and circuit design. Not very encouraging, but then, it had lasted 9 years, so I plunged ahead. Surprise! When I got my 9 year old mixer apart, everything was in the same place as the video of the newest version - same model number - but the old version components were much more robust, and had more elaborate circuit designs than the video of the newest version. In fact, all the concerns listed in the video review were completely absent in the old mixer. More sophisticated electronic circuitry design, apparently different motor, more robust appearing beater ejection mechanism, etc. It was so much more impressive than the video review of the latest version, that I resolved to keep the old one working, reserving the new one as a spare. (If in 9 years the contents had been cut so much while the price went up $20, a spare mixer at today's prices seems reasonable.) I haven't opened the new mixer to see if the insides match the video review of newer versions because of warranty concerns. Cuisinart REALLY doesn't want you inside. Four plastic plugs have to be drilled out to get to the assembly screws, making it obvious the mixer case has been "user opened". After blowing out all the flour and dry ingredients from inside the old mixer housing and gears, the rewiring was easy, and the swivel mechanism for the cord in both models is a very nice feature. The original instructions didn't describe the action of the cord mechanism. It will swivel freely unless you force it to click into a locked position at either the right or left side - handy! The button repair consisted of super gluing the 3 chunks back in place, wrapping the outside of the button with a thin layer of HVAC metal tape, and using either 2 part epoxy or a mix of super glue/styrofoam beading (youtube trick) in the void spaces on the back side of the button. Seems pretty strong, at least for now. Re-assembly was prolonged, as some of the wiring ribbon cable and the beater mechanism could only be re-assembled one way - with a circuit board going through a slit in the middle of the ribbon cable by the beater ejection mechanism! (If you ever do this disassembly, take pictures first!!) But eventually it was done, and has been happily mixing cookies and cakes to this date. If the button on the old mixer fails in the future, I might just swap in the button from the latest version (Identical case and controls on both versions). But if it fails electronically or mechanically, it is old enough that I will just use the new dumbed down version. The trend these days seems to be disposal after boredom or minor issues occur, in everything from cars and phones to jobs and relationships, and doesn't seem to be reversible, so....

Looks like a nice product cannot be used in the UK. Purchased on amazon.co.uk in the uk. What is the point of selling a US wired produce without warning people???

I bought this for a gift to be used in the UK, and when my daughter went to use it it had a USA plug, she used an adapter and it blew up.

Me encanto y me ha sido muy util

This baby is practically perfect in every way. I am in love. This was my splurge; my gift to myself that will last a lifetime. All I wanted was a mixer that won't die when I am mixing cookie dough and has a good graduation of speeds. This ticks every box. And may I call your attention to the additional accessories WITH AN ATTACHEABLE STORAGE CONTAINER? 1000% worth it to get this over the 7-speed, and don't even consider any other brand for a hand mixer.

Adorei!! Produto excelente, potente e bem acabado. A entrega também foi bem rápida.
