The 7 speed professional hand mixer works great and is very easy to use. it has a slow start so as to prevent splatter but if you push the quick burst button you can get a burst of power when ever you need it. I love the swivel cord because it makes it easy to move around with in the kitchen. The 7 speeds allows you to whip up anything and everything effortlessly. This is super easy to clean as well, just hit the release button and empty the beaters into the sink and use soap and water to clean. This hand mixer may be my newest favorite kitchen appliance. i highly recommend this hand mixer!
