I own a kitchenaid stand mixer but sometimes I need something easier than pulling out the heavy stand mixer. (Especially as I get older) This mixer fits my needs from whipping cream to making cookies. It has two clips on the bottom to hold the beaters so I am not losing them in the back of my drawer. The beaters have a soft rubber edge so they don’t scratch up your bowls. It also comes with a whisk attachment to use instead of the beaters when needed.
