It's a bit cumbersome, but maybe because I'm used to using a hand mixer slightly smaller. The attachments are slightly longer and slimmer than other hand mixers but seem sturdy enough to get the job done. It's a bit heavier than what I'm used to but I think that's to be expected considering this one seems of better quality than my H. Beach one. Overall I do love it and I'm excited to keep using it. The only con is that I don't like the attachment release button on the speed button.
