Customer Ratings & Reviews

This hand mixer is light weight and does an amazing job on heavy duty 5 quart mixing items.

I purchased this as a replacement for my Hamilton Beach mixer, which finally broke after 20 years of hard work. Out of the box, beautiful color (I chose blue), and super lightweight. The arms were a little tricky to insert (one of the holes is more recessed than the other), and it took me a couple tries to make sure they were in securely. Once I got everything going, I made a batch of lemon bars, and this little mixer did a great job. Operation was quiet and shifting power levels was incredibly smooth. From breaking up the butter into a shortbread crumb (hard work), to fluffing up the lemon curd (delicate job), this mixer did an excellent job. I think I’ll find myself using this more often than it’s big bro, the kitchen aid stand mixer, as cleanup is so much easier, and I love this blue color. Super happy with this purchase.

I recently purchased the KitchenAid KHM512IB Ultra Power 5-Speed Hand Mixer in Ink Blue, and it has been an absolute game-changer for my baking and cooking projects. Here’s why I love it: Powerful Performance: Despite its compact size, this mixer packs a punch. It easily handles everything from whipping cream to mixing thick cookie dough. The 5-speed settings offer excellent versatility, allowing precise control for any recipe. Ergonomic Design: The mixer is lightweight and easy to hold, even during extended use. The comfortable handle reduces strain, making it ideal for big batches of batter or multiple tasks in the kitchen. Quiet Operation: I was pleasantly surprised by how quiet it is. Even at higher speeds, it doesn’t create excessive noise, which is great when cooking while others are home. Stylish Appearance: The Ink Blue color is stunning and adds a pop of style to my kitchen. It’s a perfect blend of functionality and aesthetics—something KitchenAid always gets right. Easy to Clean: The beaters are easy to remove and clean, saving me time and effort. The compact size also makes it easy to store when not in use. Overall Experience: This KitchenAid hand mixer is perfect for everyday use and easily handles various tasks. Whether you’re a seasoned baker or need something reliable for occasional use, this mixer delivers exceptional quality at a great price.

As my dessert is baking in the oven, I thought I wouldn't waste another minute to let you know how tickled I am with this mixer. I checked out many hand mixers and read LOTS of reviews. This mixer doesn't disappoint in any way...It is lightweight, QUIET!!!!, low speed is VERY LOW, sturdy construction, and just plane delightful! The beaters are much thinner than my other mixer, but very powerful in delivery. This mixer will get a LOT of use!

Sturdy and handy - it fits in the cabinet nicely. Powerful for beating eggs and blending-creaming with butter for cookies. Makes a nicely whipped frosting. It fits in my largest mixing bowl without the beaters. I put those to the side. Compact.

Beautiful design as well as color , great craftsmanship. Has multiple speeds so it’s good for all your needs . High quality performance

I can't explain how pleased I am with my new mixer! Even when using the highest setting it's easy on the ears. Very powerful, light in weight and works great! Thank you,

I love my new mixer! It's light weight and easy to use. Makes baking a breeze - should have ditched my old hand mixer a long time ago as the motor was not working properly. The cool blue color is just and added plus.

Our hand mixer died and we needed a new one, ASAP. This was on the deal of the day and I bought it. It's been a lifesaver since this purchase. It's quick, powerful, and it's small enough to store. I'm a huge fan of this and would totally recommend this purchase.

Excellent hand mixer for the quicker jobs when you're not in the mood to haul out the large Kitchenaid mixer. Good performance with 5 speeds and it's a lightweight appliance. Only wish it included another accessory with a different type of mixing beater.

Quiet!! Lightweight. Only criticism is that the beaters seem shorter than previous mixers we’ve owned. It seems like we buy a hand mixer every December, our family makes holiday cookies, and the mixer either burns out in 12 months of light duty or is excruciatingly loud. We literally trashed the last one for its ear piercing sound. This KitchenAid mixer is pleasantly quiet and easy to use. Hopefully it lasts more than 12 months - but so far so good.

Lightweight, easy to use. Spins fast enough beautiful color

It's a beauty, we like the blue and silver color combination and it works great. speed selections and quality really good.

Perfect for making goods! I have been on the hunt for something small like this and its perfect ! Lightweight and gets the job done!

I can definitely recommend this mixer. It's easier to maneuver, doesn't make my arms tired, and easy to clean. Very pleased with my purchase and excited to have a mixer that actually does some of the work for me.

This mixer doesn't have very many frills--it's basic. But it does the job. It doesn't have a slow start, but the slowest speed is manageable. Used this for pancakes, cakes, and rice-cakes. I love the color too! Hope the machine stays reliable. Prices were higher due to Pandemic and folks staying at home, but have to live with it.

A great option for the price. It doesn't take much space, it is easy to clean and powerfull enough for a hand mixer.

Love the color and ease of use but not pleased with highest speed compared to previous Kitchenaid mixers I've had

I purchased this for my wife, and she used it right away and absolutely loves it! She says it works with ease, and not very heavy..

I love the ink blue color, the simplicity and the power this mixer has. I found an older jar of natural peanut butter in the cupboard. All the oil had risen to the top and the peanut stuff was really firm. This mixer had no problem recombining the mixture into a smooth and creamy consistency.
