Default Mixer (here we go again)


I know this topic was discussed recently but at the time my
Kitchenaid was going strong. It died last night in the process
of whipping cream. It lasted over 10 years. I need a new one.

Any recommendations?

I had a problem with mine. One of the beaters wouldn't stay in after
a few years, the motor was fine though. I didn't replace it with
another kitchen aid hand mixer.

Based on you saying your kitchen aid only lasted 10 years, I'd say
don't replace it with another kitchen aid.

That would depends on how often and how hard it was used. Once a day? Once
a month? Once a year?

Depending on how often you used it in that time, it may have either served
you well or not well at all. Our hand mixer is used maybe once a month
while the stand is used a couple of times a week.

We have a KA and it still works well and I'd probably buy another with no
hesitation. Most hand mixers are made in China, including a Dualit I saw
last week. Get the one that feels comfortable in your hand.

I wonder if that's true for hand mixers too. Oh, well. It's gone
now.

With modern mixers it is usually a gear in the mechanism that goes out
or the motor burns out due to heavy use. Is hubby a handy man? I've
repaired mixers, etc. for herself many times. Now that I'm the house
husband I repair them for me.

Color me tight with the dough.
