even I can't burn this out!!

The Bottom Line: this is a great hand mixer that doesn't take up much room for storage and does a great job mixing all types of dough.
Since I love to bake, I needed a electric mixer that would be durable and not burn itself out the first time I added the chocolate chips to the dough. I checked out several hand mixers and a few stand ones as well, but since I don't have alot of counter space, I wanted something I could toss into a drawer when I wasn't using it.
This kitchen-aid mixer was the one, the price was a little more than I wanted to spend, but considering how much use I would get out of it, and also considering I make cheesecakes and other desserts for extra money, I knew it would pay for itself rather quickly.
After leaving the store with it, I knew I had to try it out, I went home and quickly mixed up a batch of chocolate chip cookies, and had absolutely no problem mixing the thick batter. Since then I've used this mixer several times, ranging from cheesecakes to bread dough and have had no problems.
Cleaning and storage is easy, just wipe mixer off with a damp sponge and dry with paper towels, storage is easy as well, it fits in a drawer.
I would recommend this mixer for anyone who loves to bake.
