The mixer is a lot smaller than I thought it would be, but fits on my counter nicely. It has a lot of power for a small mixer. I wish the lowest setting would be a bit slower, so there would be more control and less splash from the batter. Also, I wish the bowl had a handle on it for pouring and to easily place the bowl on the mixer and take it off the mixer stand.

Bought this because I love to bake......nope, unless you're making something so small you could do it with a fork this thing is garbage (threw it out in the yard last night) I was making 12 dinner rolls, you have to "feed" what's in the bowl to the beaters/hooks, the bowl just sits and spins and mixes only what's right there and over works the dough there while the dough 1 inch from the hooks doesn't even get touched. (very soft sticky dough, not thick at all) unless you're beating eggs for a omelette pass this piece of trash up. It failed on cookie dough, bread, dinner rolls, and pasta dough.

The bowl does go around and the beaters spin. Really wish the description had included the fact you can't run it for more than 3 minutes. It's a stand mixer, it's supposed to continue working while you add more ingredients. Of course the packaging went to recycling before I actually used it. So it's mine until I have a yard sale. I have several other Dash items that work fine so I didn't expect any issues. Very disappointed in this product.

I was always looking for a stand mixer but because of its size and all the space it occupies in the kitchen I had not bought it but now with this stand mixer I feel very happy because it is a suitable size, it works excellent and it does not take up much space in my kitchen.

Is this supposed to have a slow speed? Because mine doesn't. Just fast, faster and way to fast. It sounds like it is trying to take off. I love it for its size and weight which makes it very doable for me. However, I could really use a slow speed for almost everything I make. So for that reason alone I give it only 3 stars, and because of the speed, I don't use it as often as I had hoped. So far everything else I have purchased from this company I love and use often - Waffle maker, Griddle, and Pizzelle maker.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I only use a stand mixer for making bread. My old mixer died, so I got the Dash stand mixer. I was surprised at how light it was, which makes it much easier to move in and out of the cupboard; but I wasn't sure how it would handle kneading dough, and the dough hooks looked too small to do the job. However, I was impressed. The hooks worked very well, and it had no problem with the dough. Having to turn it off to rest every three minutes was annoying, but not seriously. And I really liked the locking bowl and suction cups on the bottom, which kept it in place on the counter while in operation. Very satisfied with my purchase.

I'm sad actually! Used it one time and was only mixing cake mix and the beaters are already off track and hitting each other. Very frustating. Not sure if I just picked the defective one on the shelf but I won't exchange for the same thing. You can't lock the bowl so u have to manually hold it or it will just spin by itself continuously. It had a chintzy feel to it when I pulled it out of the box. Now I have to clean it up just to take it back since we still need to make the frosting. This was my first stand mixer and I may just go back to the hand held.

My travel van never smelled as good as with the fresh bread and cakes I make with my new mixer...Entertained new friends at the campground and it was a hit...No ore wasted breads and fresh daily, for my family...Amazingly powerful for a little guy...And compact to boot...Cleaning is a breeze...Every baker should own one, for it's versatility and portability...Great size for kids too...Culinary school students in dorms would love one, too...Anybody need a gift idea?...LOL

I recently got the Dash Everyday Stand Mixer and it's amazing for anyone who loves to multitask in the kitchen. This mixer is lightweight and easy to move around which is great if you don’t have a lot of counter space. The different speed settings help with mixing everything from cookie dough to whipped cream. I also love that it’s super quiet. Cleaning up is simple because most parts are dishwasher safe. Overall it’s a great mixer for everyday use and I highly recommend it.

This is my first stand mixer EVER and now I understand why people love them! It did a good job mixing cream cheese and sugar; However, the beaters had small rust spots on them when I took them out of the box. That is disappointing and I’m not sure what to do about that.
