When shopping for a new mixer, one question you may ask is how does a Hamilton Beach Mixer compare to a Kitchen Aid Mixer? This first thing about a Hamilton Beach brand stand mixer is that it is considerably less expensive than a Kitchen Aid. With that in mind you may ask if it is than comparable in quality? When money is not a question than a Kitchen Aid may be your choice because of all the attachment possibilities it has. When you are on a budget and want a comparable stand mixer than this Hamilton Beach mixer is a great choice.
This 6-speed stand mixer has the same mixing action as a Kitchen Aid mixer. Instead of the 2 beater mixing that we are used to, this one comes with the single beater, dough hook or whisk just like the Kitchen Aid. It actually as a fold setting which is great when doing a lot of baking. The 300 watt motor is almost as powerful as the 350 watt motor in the Kitchen Aid. It comes with a 3.5 quart mixing bowl too.
If you are just starting out in the kitchen and need a mixer that will not break your budget, than this mixer is a good choice. With a price way under $100, you will be getting a great appliance for your money. It would make a great gift for a new cook too.
Compared to the large and heavy Kitchen Aid mixers, this one is a compact sized appliance and is not too heavy which is a plus for someone with limited strength or mobility. It is a good choice as well due to the smaller size if you have limited storage space in your kitchen or home.
I am returning this mixer (the one in the picture) to Amazon tomorrow. After washing it in the dishwasher twice I can smell mold in the bottom of the bowl. There are holes in the bottom that collect water. It's disgusting.
