I LOVE my new mixer!!  I’ve had a Kitchen Aid for a few years but I hated it!!  I finally decided enough was enough.  This one is not as loud, has 12 speed settings and doesn’t make a mess on the mixer, my counter top, floor or underneath my cabinets!!  Plus the bowl is bigger and has a handle for easy pouring.  It has plenty of power, too.  

The KA advertised 10 settings but the lever goes up by 2.  So, really it only has 5 settings and makes a huge mess spraying flour and then batter.
