i dont have a lot of extra money so i couldnt justify buying this while i had a handmixer that worked.
needless to say, last saturday, my hand mixer finally beat the dust... meanwhile i did a little happy dance...
...and bought this.
i do a lot of cookies. that's my specialty.
the only gripe i had is maybe the bowl could be bigger so i could do my triple batches, but whatever. i cant afford a more expensive one just so it would have a bigger bowl.
i got to use it for the first time tonight on my oatmeal raisin. yeah a little noise, but not unexpected or scary. there was a little movement too, but again not unexpected considering how thick the mixture is.
i had to lift it every once in awhile to make sure that all the mixture was getting beat in but didnt really need to- everything got mixed very thoroughly; much easier than having to stand there with the hand mixer and fight with it.
i havent messed with the dough hook simply because i use a breadmaker for that, and i havent used the whip because i really never have needed that either.
i am looking forward to getting some of the attachments, especially the ice cream one and the meat grinder. we try to eat as "natural" as possible, and i am looking forward to doing ground chicken and other things.
i know its not an investment to enter into lightly, but its well worth the money because i know this will last me into my middle age.
i love the heft of this machine also. i am one that buys the most durable things i can; i have a sewing machine that was made in switzerland, and i can tell this is the same type of construction- all metal.
