Yomelo 9-Speed Electric Hand Mixer, 400W

My specialty is cheesecake and you might be surprised how many I end up making throughout the year. You checked on our cats while we were out of town? Cheesecake. Flying to visit my parents? Laptop, shoes and cheesecake through the x-ray. Christmas with the in-laws? Big family, two cheesecakes. Trying to indoctrinate new followers? Let cheesecake be their first step on the path to enlightenment. It’s George Orwell’s “1984”? Big Brother is watching you eat cheesecake. Marie Antoinette would still be alive if only she’d said, “Let them eat cheesecake.” I think you get the idea.
But to make all these cheesecakes, each time I would have to hoist the boat anchor that is our KitchenAid stand-mixer onto the counter – passing out ear plugs to my husband and the cats in preparation for the sounds of industrial revolution in our kitchen – resigned to later exhaustion scrubbing out the Stanley Cup of mixing bowls.
This was unsustainable. Something had to change, and it wasn’t going to be the number of cheesecakes. I needed a hand-mixer. It had to be affordable but not flimsy and with limited counter space, it needed to be compact – something I could just reach over and grab. After a thorough search and much due diligence, I found the subject of today’s glowing recommendation. Perfectly-priced, well-reviewed, and quite the looker (we can say it doesn’t matter but all things being equal, aww look how cute it is!), this hand-mixer has the compact size I require while offering up a benefit I didn’t even know I needed: built-in storage for the beaters! No more digging through drawers or cabinets, no more dead-lifting the world’s wonkiest shape with the density of a bowling ball.
All that was left, was to put it to THE test: Mashed potatoes.
I’m kidding, I made a cheesecake. Firstly — ermarged it’s just so CUTE. Okay okay, so I absolutely love the digital read-out – it’s just another feature I didn’t know I wanted. I like that you can adjust the speed before turning on the beaters. Admittedly, I haven’t cranked it up to 11 (there’s only 9 settings, but you get my point) or used the Turbo button because unavoidably, higher speeds will do my hands in pretty quick and I don’t see myself needing to beat anything at mach 5, besides maybe an intruder coming for my infamous cheesecake. (They can wait until it’s ready like everyone else!) Having said that, the width of the handle is uniform so you can choke up on it without feeling like you’re fighting to hold onto it. It’s quite comfortable, especially for something like cheesecake batter which can take a bit to come together when there’s 32oz of cream cheese to power through. And a special shout-out to the boxy shape and weight distribution, making it possible to set the mixer safely on its…uh…butt?…between rounds of beating without it succumbing to Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle while I’m trying to add ingredients. Cleaning is an absolute breeze – just wash the beaters, towel them off and back in their little compartment they go. It’s like they’re staying at one of those Japanese capsule hotels – adorable! Its kitchen footprint – or lack thereof – really can’t be overstated. Well, it can be but it’s understated and that’s the point. It wasn’t so much finding a place for it as, “oh, it can just stay right there” and with limited counter space it’s like getting the line block in Tetris just as your head’s about to disappear beneath a stack of L- and Z-shaped appliances.
Nothing in this world is truly perfect (except for my cheesecake), but this hand-mixer gets 5s all around because we live in an imperfect system and within such a system, this hand-mixer is perfect for me.

Product was sent in plastic bag and didn’t look new on receipt. Product felt very light. Item did not have a CE mark and only had an American plug…not UK adapter. Very difficult to return for a refund as item has to be returned to the US at my own expense…this was not clear on purchase. Update : Refund received from seller but required a lot of effort on my part. I was sent eventually sent a pre-paid label
which turned out to be invalid ( I visited 4 drop off points). After complaining again they issued the refund but no new pre-paid label so still unable to return item.

I am having so much fun using my Mothers Day gift!!! I’m recently gluten intolerant and have begun baking my own breads, muffins, pancakes, waffles, cookies, brownies and SO much more…doing all of that mixing by hand leads to uneven distribution of the ingredients AND very sore hands!! So when I saw this neat Lil machine…I could not help myself…it’s so light…so durable…the attachments go in and out very easily…and there are so many speed settings…it’s simple and fun to use…I already ordered another one for my Sister for her upcoming birthday!! Anyone who loves cooking, experimenting, baking…give yourself a treat…it’s affordable and a good little machine which I hope to enjoy for a long time!!!!

Purchase this hand mixer as I was looking for something simple after my KitchenAid mixer broke. I like this this mixer comes with a whisk, beaters and dough hooks. The whisk attachment feels flimsy but it works well. The dough hocks were great. You will need to move the mixer closer to the side of the bowl to incorporate any remaining flour. The beaters worked great. It was a bit challenging to push the attachments into place but I got the hang of it after a few tries. I found the turbo setting is way too fast and speed 1 was sufficient. Had to get used to where the start/stop button was located. The dough and beaters attachments are sturdy. A bottle brush helped with cleaning the edges of the beaters. Overall, this is a great affordable hand mixer. Hoping it will last a while.

First of all, the main thing is that the color of this hand mixer attracts me, it is convenient and simple to operate, there are 9 speeds, it is very powerful, I like it.
