Hamilton Beach Electric Stand Mixer, 4 Quarts, 7 Speeds Description
BAKE WITH EASE: Effortlessly mix thick batters and doughs for bread, cookies and more. With a powerful 300 watt motor, this Hamilton Beach stand mixer will easily handle the ingredients for all your homemade baked goods from cupcakes and cookies to bread.
VERSATILE — 7 SPEEDS, SLOW FIRST SPEED & MIXING GUIDE: A helpful guide on top of the electric mixer helps you choose the right speed for the job. The slow first speed is great for kneading bread and reducing splatter when adding dry ingredients to wet ingredients.
COMPLETE BOWL COVERAGE — The planetary mixing action rotates the beaters around the 4 quart stainless steel bowl for even and complete hands-free mixing. The stand mixer has the same rotating mixing action as other leading brand stand mixers.
INCLUDES EVERYTHING YOU NEED: In addition to the stainless steel bowl with handles, the stand mixer comes with a splash guard, dough hook, whisk and flat beater. The bowl and the stand mixer attachments are all dishwasher safe.
EASY TO LIFT, MOVE AND STORE WITH BUILT-IN HANDLE: The top handle gives you a better grip on lifting the mixer’s head to add ingredients or swap out attachments. When you want to store the stand mixer away, use the same handle for easy moving.

I really do like this mixer- don’t get me wrong, but it does have it’s flaws.
Pros: – It mixes really well – Multiple Attachments make it nice to mix a multitude of items – Suction does work… temporarily – Multiple speeds – Tilt function is a great addition – Very lightweight and easy to move
Cons: – Because it is so light weight, the suction doesn’t really hold up while mixing dough or cookies. It will move across the counter, and if you’re not careful, it will jump off the counter – The numbers on the knob came off after wiping it down with just a moist cloth to clean. – The cover for the mixer doesn’t really work well. It’s hard to add flour to the slot in the front, and even when you can add flour there, it just spits the dust out of the back and still creates a huge mess. – Gets really hot if you’re mixing dough or something thicker for several minutes.
Overall- I still like it and find value in purchasing this over the KitchenAid, as I don’t use it very often. If I used it more, I’d definitely invest in something a little sturdier, as this does get frustrating when you’re using it.
UPDATE – after a year, I’m upgrading to the KitchenAid. This is an okay mixer if you’re doing brownies, maybe some cookies, and whipped cream, but otherwise, it’s not really for heavy duty mixing. It smells hot when you do bread or cinnamon rolls dough, and it’s too light to stay in place. Those are my biggest complaints.

Oh my gosh, I wish I had gotten this sooooo much sooner! My daughter has one that is like industrial super heavy duty, weighs a lot, and I’ve used it a very small bit, but not much. I’m aging, I’m having problems with my hands/wrists/arms, ok, body in general, and I decided it was time to get one. I have a tiny kitchen that I hate, so I already knew I had no room to put one of these, hence not having one. I chose this particular mixer because it has a handle. I don’t know if others have a handle or not, I just saw this one with it’s handle and all beautifully shiny blue and fell in love. I used it the first time the same day I got it, and I’ve used it multiple times since. I litterally do not have counter space enough to have all 4 suction cups stuck at the same time during use, so I stay right with it and to date, ok a dozen or so uses later, it doesn’t travel, but I have no intention of walking away from it while in use. I actually didn’t know it even had the suction cups on the bottom until I went to get it off my dining room table. All I have to say, is if you’re a little older and your body isn’t so good, those suction cups stick well enough to risk putting your back or a should joint or something out if you go to grab it and don’t know it’s suction cupped to your table. But it’s ok if you do. The other deal sealer for me was that this one does not weigh anywhere near as much as my daughters mixer does. I thought I had managed to clear an under cupboard spot to keep it, but it’s too tall. So like so many other things I like to use, it will live in the basement when not in use. I am currently considering converting part of the basement to a much more user friendly kitchen with much more counter and cupboard space, as most of my kitchen stuff is down there anyways. And in closing, the important stuff: I’ve only used the paddle piece, the instructions said that would be the one most used, and so far that has been true. My numb fingers have no problems putting on or taking off any of the attachments, and the paddle has been amazingly easy to clean. If the batter hasn’t dripped off, a quick swipe with a spatula takes most of it off, super easy to was. I use a damp swedish dishcloth to wipe the mixer down itself, dry it off, as well as the bowl, so it stays shiny pretty too. i put all the attachments in the bowl, tuck in the cord and put, Oh yes! it also has a spatter guard! I’ve creamed sugar into melted butter or shortning, whipped eggs, added liquids, and or flour. I was concerned about spatter, but have discovered that this mixer doesn’t, or at least hasn’t yet spattered anything. The bowl height/beater depth seems to be perfect for mixing, which is as it should be! I have not used the whisk attachment yet, I’m guessing the potential for spatter will be much higher then, but it’s ok, because this mixer comes with a spatter guard. So far I’m totally satisfied with this mixer, and my hands/arms/body in general wish I’d done it sooner.

The media could not be loaded.
It might not be the most expensive, but I do not own a bakery. My first test was on making butter. It wiped the cream at max speed for about 20 minutes. Did every stages with ease. The wiper is almost touching the bol and it’s a good thing. It does mix great and scrape all as needed.
I was expecting more noise but no. It’s actually prety quiet to. I mean it’s not silent but less noise than my manual 2 beater 300wats.
Also it never moved and never I felt it was wombleling or about to fall down. Even at full speed. Not sure why some critiques stated that. I full speed it at 7 for 20 minutes it was all good and safe.
Not sure how many years it would last but for the usage I do. Here and there. It should do good. I also gave a bread maker so no need to force it of no need for the hook for now.
The quality of the whip is amazing.
For this price range. Wow.

KitchenAid is the Best! Blah! Blah! Blah! Well, not in my opinion. I purchased a 5.5 quart Bowl Lift KitchenAid mixer and had nothing but problems. First, the thing weighed nearly 30 pounds. OK, so it’s all metal and that’s fine and good, unless you have to lift it or move it or God forbid ship the stupid thing back, like I had to.
The first main problem was that the Whisk attachment was scraping badly on the bottom of the bowl. Fine, you just adjust the screw to lift the attachment height up. Only, and this has happened to a lot of reviewers, the stupid screw doesn’t budge. AT ALL!! Contacted KitchenAid and they gave me an incident number and directed me to watch a video that shows you how to turn a screw! DUH!! Do they think people are so stupid, that they can’t turn a screw?? Anyway, I then proceeded to REMOVE the Whisk attachment. Only, like the screw, it was frozen. It would not budge. OMG!! After 10 minutes of us trying, I gave it one gigantic yank and it came loose. When that happened, my arm got pinched in the whisk and I got a gigantic bruise on my right arm and welt. GRRR!! The other 2 attachments seemed to go on and off OK, but I wasn’t about to try the old Whisk again. I fought it once and it beat me…lol Target had a great sale on these at $249, but I had my fill and it went back. Don’t get me wrong, KitchenAid mixers have a lot going for them. They’re very powerful, they are beautiful and all metal. They’re made in the good old USA & you can purchase a mountain of attachments for them. Nonetheless, I’m too old to have to fight with my appliances.
So, I checked out everything. One of the features I liked about the KitchenAid, is their Planetary Action. That’s the way the attachments travel around the bowl or make an orbit, as compared to being in a fixed position. I believe Cuisinart mixers have that, too. Don’t even get me started on the Cuisinart company and the quality control issues they’re having.
So, after searching and reading hundreds of reviews all over the internet (I disregard the incentivized reviews), I decided on this Hamilton Beech. It had the Planetary Action, pretty good power for my breads and mixing, was attractive, had a lift head, was really reasonably priced, had a good amount of metal in it, but only a fraction of the weight of the KitchenAid.
After I received it, I was pleasantly surprised at the power of it. It was much more attractive than it appeared on the product page. While some people have said it didn’t get all the ingredients from the side of the bowl, I haven’t found that to be much of a problem. The one thing I do, that I’ve learned from influencer cooks on YouTube, is to always give my ingredients a quick stir in the bowl BEFORE starting the mixer. That helps prevent dry ingredients from staying on the sides or bottom of the bowl. The plastic Shield cover is great to have. I’ve only used it a couple of times, but that’s something that KitchenAid doesn’t even include. They include it, if you buy one of their really high dollar professional models. Another thing this has that KitchenAid doesn’t, is some RECIPES. Come on, KitchenAid! Stop being so cheap, that you can’t even include 4 or 5 recipes. I don’t need them, but they could at least include a few, for the prices they’re asking.
Another thing that is great about this mixer, is that the Tilt Back Head Locks in place. That’s important while you’re using it, changing attachments and really important if you’re lifting it by the top handle. It’s a great safety feature, that most stand mixers don’t have. It also helps prevent you from getting hurt & that’s important to me. The top handle makes it easier to lift the head up and down. I really like that, as compared to other mixers without a handle.
The main and probably only thing I don’t like about this mixer is that it WALKS and SHAKES at higher speeds. The shaking isn’t so bad, because you can hold the top of the mixer, to stabilize it. On the other hand, if you’re not careful, that shaking can walk it right off the counter. When I purchased the KitchenAid, I also bought a bamboo slider to go underneath it and it fits perfect for this. For $10 to $12, I would advise investing in a slider. They are designed to easily slide your mixer around the counter or center island, in my case. But, they also stabilize the mixer and help keep it put. If you buy anything for your new mixer, buy one of those. They come in different materials. I like the wood, but check the reviews and see what works best for you.
Now, this mixer only comes in a few colors and you’re not going to get all those designer colors you might want. But, who cares really? I’m looking around for matching covers for this mixer, my 4 slice toaster, Ninja Blender and Air Fryer Oven. So, everything is going to be covered up, anyway. This also doesn’t have many attachments. Again, I only need the main ones. And lets talk about attachments. OMG, the attachments on this mixer are so EASY to go on and off. No fighting at all. The Whisk is not as heavy duty as the KitchenAid, but it’s plenty sufficient. If it eventually breaks or wears out, I’ll just purchase another. It also only has one bowl size. If you purchase another bowl for it, it will be the same identical thing. KitchenAid has several different bowls and materials to choose from. Again, that wasn’t a deal breaker for me. This is only a 4 quart bowl and I wasn’t sure that would be big enough, but it has been. It’s large enough to make my large Pullman loaf of bread and that’s about 1 1/2 the size of a regular loaf.
It has 7 speeds and I’ve never had to go past 5 for anything, even whipping cream. It goes from soft peaks to stiff, pretty fast. The mixer handles dough fantastic and that’s the main reason I need a stand mixer. You can’t do it by hand and it was getting messy, trying to use a hand mixer. The stupid dough would ride right up the attachments and some of the dough was always getting into the attachment holes and the underside of the mixer. YUCK!!
WARRANTY? This baby has a 3 year warranty. I purchased it with my Mastercard, giving me an additional 1 year warranty. Now, I have 4 years of Warranty. KitchenAid has a 1 year warranty!
Another thing I wasn’t too happy about? Target always advertises a PRICE MATCH guarantee? Well, guess what. It’s WORTHLESS. I would have saved $37.50, because the day AFTER I purchased my KitchenAid mixer from them, I could have gotten the same mixer for less. But, they said it wasn’t valid, because their PRICE MATCH GUARANTEE, means it has to be the EXACT SAME ITEM and advertised in an ad. It also has to be THEIR ad and within 14 days and the exact same thing has to be PICTURED!!! That is ridiculous! They DO NOT have a price match, but by advertising that they do, they fool people into purchasing from them. Then, the few people that try to get a price match, they just deny. I will never buy any type of electronics from them again. They have terrible customer service and they’re not honest at all. It was also on sale at KitchenAid.com for the same $249, but when you sign up with them, they give you 10% off. So, I would have saved $25 by purchasing it at KitchenAid, instead of Target. Something I’ll think about, when I order my next big appliance. Check the manufacturer first and see if they’re actually cheaper.
I highly recommend this mixer. Eventually, I may purchase another KitchenAid mixer. For now, this is my pick and I’m sticking with it!
Thank you for reading my review. If you found any of this helpful, please let me know.
