I bought this about 2 years ago, and use it all the time. It's great, comes with dough hooks, beaters, and a nice deep bowl. It comes off the stand if you need to use it as a handheld. It has good power, good enough to beat through heavy cookie dough. I love this for basic mixing and bread/pasta dough making.
dont have to worry about hand mixing anymore; works great
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best for most boxed cake mixes

We got this as a gift. Having grown up with my mother's ancient Mixmaster, I was very disappointed in the minimal speed control - speed is either fast, faster, really fast, egg whites and splatter.
However, my brother's 9 year old is learning how to bake, and for the most simple mixes and basic cake recipes it's perfectly adequate. I wasn't sure how it would handle an old-fashioned pound cake recipe, but it did well enough. She and I joke about the smoking electronics smell - this really isn't the model for years of service.
If you have a young person who's learning to bake and nobody's sure if he or she will stay with their interest, this is a decent starter model. If you just blew the gears on your Cuisinart, your cat or puppy just chewed through the cord on your Hobart or 5 or 6 qt. pro and the birthday party's the day after tomorrow, or you need a cheap Passover model for those 8 days only, this is probably what you want. If it isn't an emergency and you need a good mixer with dough hooks for more types of mixing needs, save the cash, get something with better speed control. That's probably my biggest gripe - but I'm a semi-pro baker and was spoiled for a few years with pro models big and powerful enough to break your arm off.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have had this hand mixer with stand for some time and the regular beaters are starting to rust is this a common problem? I am rather disappointed my mother has the a hand mixer she has used for 20 yrs and her beaters have never rusted.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from Sun BeamBy Sunbeam, Customer Care, July 19, 2016
To prevent rusting, it's important wash your beaters after use, and dry them thoroughly immediately after washing. We will be happy to help you with getting new beaters! Give us a call at 1-800-458-8407. We're available Monday-Friday, 9am-6pm Eastern.
