    The mixer is good, if you do not need a professional one, but just use it in everyday life, then this is the very thing - the price is adequate , I advise.

    this was bought as a replacement for one given to me about 20 years ago. They are well built and can handle all that you put it through, and it will probably last just as long as the first one.

    This is my second purchase of a KitchenAid hand mixer. I have had one for about 15 years and it has served me well but thought it was time to get a new one just incase. Thanks to Best Buy's great reward program I was able to get it with reward points I have earned with other purchases!!!

    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.

    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'm a senior and this is my first hand mixer. As I get older, hard to carry the full size heavy mixer. So I've been beating cake mixes by hand for years but noticed they don't raise like they use to. It's been wonderful using my new KitchenAid 5 Speed Hand Mixer. Easier on my wrist and the cakes are no longer flat. The cakes raise and seem lighter. I did try to make buttercream frosting and it did the job, but it was harder and took longer. I will probably get out the full size KitchenAid in the future. Easy to figure out which beater goes in which hole since there is a pic on mixer where you pop in the beater. I purchased this on sale.

    Light weight but powerful mixer

    I had a very inexpensive hand mixer and decided to upgrade. After reading the reviews I choose the Kitchen Aid plus it matched my Kitchen Aid stand mixer. I was surprised at how light the hand mixer felt when I took it out of the box. After the first use, what a difference! It has the power to mix heavier dough and also to whip egg whites. The beaters are east to clean due to the wires not being so close together and batter stays in the pan and not all over the beaters. I am very pleased with my Kitchen Aid hand mixer

    I love the color and the feel of this mixer. It is easy to assemble and clean. I use my hand mixer for easy household baking (cakes, muffins, frosting, etc) and this is perfect for that. The sound is so much quieter than my old mixer that I had to shut it off and turn it on several times to make sure the beaters were working. . . they were, I was just so surprised it made little noise. It has five speeds and the top speed doesn't go very fast. I haven't tried, but I have doubts about being able to fluff egg whites with this machine. I could just be skeptical because this mixer is so quiet.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    This is my best baking buddy for small jobs! I have a big KitchenAid mixer for the bigger jobs but this I use because it's lightweight, doesn't take much counter space, and is so easy to use. I highly recommend this for those quick jobs.

    I absolutely love this mixer. Ive never had any issues with it and i've had it for a few months and I know that itll last since my mom had hers for about 13 years. I highly recommend ordering this as its easy to use, the speed levels are great and super easy to add/remove the mixing parts. Pretty color too!
