You need to give me a little more time... So far I only used it to bake some cookies.  I found that the butter, later mixed with one egg is not mixing well with the flat beater.  I have to stop the mixer often to scrape the side and bottom of mixing bowl.  I'll soon try other things, like mashed potatoes, get used to the mixer, and only after having used it for a while can I tell you if I like it, if I sort of like it, or if I am not satisfied at all.
