Bad Points

  • Heavy motor head, not spring loaded.
  • Bowl has a small base area and can be unstable when placed on bench.
  • Mixer head jolts when mixing a heavy load.
  • No eject button to remove beater, twist and unlock from position, hand can get covered in mixture.
  • Using the glass bowl requires some wrist strength to lift and pour out the load. May not be suitable for persons with weak arm and wrist strength.

  • Mixing bowl is large and may not fit comfortably in a domestic sink.
