High-Power Boost Blender Plus – Smoothie, Shake & Ice Crushing Kitchen Essential

For several years I have had a VERY heavy and large Kitchenaid stand mixer that I've used many many times over the years that has been great yet at the same time, for me, a pain in the ass! I do bake, on occasion, and I do cook pretty much daily but the Kitchenaid unit wasn't worthy of taking up that much counter space. And that thing is soooo heavy that, when I put it away in one of my lower, taller cabinets... I found myself deciding not to use it because I don't need a hernia! and opted to use my lightweight hand mixer sometimes to get the job done. But sometimes you want a good mixer to do the job. Ugh So I decided finally to do something about that and found this little beauty here on Amazon. I really love this mixer! It's much much lighter weight and smaller. And what I love even more is that you can take the top unit off and use it as a hand mixer if need be. I bought this in the blue color. It's perfect for me! And the price was fantastic! I think I paid like $50. It's actually small enough that I can leave it on the counter if I choose to but it's lightweight and I can easily put it away or retrieve it without hurting myself. Yeahhh!! I received this only just earlier today but washed all the components right away and put it straight to use on a cake mix. It works fantastic and has plenty of power for what I like to make. I did mess around with the settings and stuff. Runs great! I saw some reviews about some who didn't like that the beaters don't go to the bottom of the bowl. I understand that, but it's an easy fix to place a small plate underneath the bowl while your mixing if that's a problem for you. It does lift the bowl up just high enough. I checked it out, and that does work. The beaters are not that far up away from the bottom. Only slightly. Honestly I didn't need to do that I just used my spatula to scoop as always. I'm not a professional baker. I'm just a grandma who likes to bake sometimes. Now I will actually bake more because this mixer is so much more user-friendly!My husband has already gave me a list of things he wants me to make. And now, because of this wonderful mixer, I won't mind. I wish I had bought this a long time ago but I had felt obligated with that $400 Kitchenaid macine sitting there in my cabinet... kept me from buy something like this. Like I would be a traitor or something. I'm selling my Kitchenaid machine and keeping this one! We'll see as time goes by how well this machine stands up. From what I can tell now it should last me a long time. It's well made and has great attachments. The mixing bowl is big enough for regular sized stuff like cake mixes or the like. I hope my review helps you if your on the fence. I mean, what's not to like? It's a great little machine and sturdy. If you're baking huge batches of cookies for the whole neighborhood all the time or for a business I doubt this would ever come close to what you need. Because this is your average light use mixer. If you're like me and you just whip up a cake or some homemade goodies sometimes, definitely get this! Even for stuff like whipping egg whites, this will be great! Now I'm excited again about making things I haven't made for a long time. It's great!

I’ve had the Hamilton Beach Classic Hand & Stand Mixer (4 qt, 6 speeds) for a few months and it’s been fantastic! Switching between stand and hand mixer is super easy, and it tackles everything from cake batters to cookie dough effortlessly . Highlights: • Versatile 2‑in‑1 design—attach the bowl for stand use or detach the mixer to use handheld. Saves space and adds flexibility . • Good power for home baking—handles creaming butter, whisking egg whites, and basic doughs without a hitch . • Compact and easy to clean—the 4‑quart stainless steel bowl fits in most cabinets and is dishwasher-safe . A few minor drawbacks: • Build quality is lightweight—it’s mostly plastic, and the stand can wobble at higher speeds . • Not for heavy-duty tasks—bread dough or very thick batter can make it struggle or slip . • Bowl isn’t auto-rotating—you need to rotate the bowl manually for even mixing A stellar value for casual bakers and everyday use. It’s not a KitchenAid, but for $50–60 you get solid performance, versatility, and space-saving convenience. Just go in with realistic expectations: pretty good, not pro-level. Ideal if you’re baking cookies, whipping cream, or just don’t want two separate mixers

Got this for my wife since she has been eyeballing every cake mixer out there. It comes with a ton of pieces like a mixing bowl, you can adjust the speeds, it can go slow or fast depending on your preference, once you’re finished with it then it’s easy to clean and all the pieces fit in the bowl….in the bowl. The stainless steel is nice and easy to clean so you don’t have much trouble there to worry about. Honestly it’s fun watching her make bread, cake, and heck even made her own whipping cream using this machine. I highly recommend getting one now for your kitchen.

It works well both on the stand and independently, making it useful for different preparations. It has good power for mixing light doughs and whipping creams, and switching speeds is simple. The bowl rotates evenly, which helps achieve more consistent mixes with little effort. For home use, it works perfectly and makes cooking much easier.
