I am so glad I got this KitchenAid hand mixer just in time for the holidays! The flex edge beaters made this so easy to not waste extra batter or have to scrape off the beaters, made it very easy to come off! The 6 speeds were perfect for each different dessert I made. It is lightweight and was very easy to handle. It feels good in your hand, like good quality! Will be giving this as a gift for my friend buying a new home!
