I bought this for my self. Very lightweight. Low speed is pretty fast. I made bread dough and while I had to scrape the bowl often it got the job done. I ran it continuously for 10 minuets, maybe more, it was fine. No guts no glory. Overall a fine mixer for the price. If I burn it up, Ill get one that is more heavy duty.

This mixer is very cute and small, but it really is only cute to look at! I used it to make cake batter in and ended up taking the bowl and finishing mixing the batter with my hand mixer. The bowl turned at first and then stopped and does not turn anymore. I have only used it ONCE!! I did not expect this mixer to be a big professional type such as a kitchen aide stand mixer, however I was hoping it would at least work as it said it would! I will from now on stick with my kitchen aide hand mixer, it may not be as convenient as a stand mixer, but at least it is reliable! This mixer is just a cute useless accessory on my counter!

I wish I had known you could only run the motor for three minutes at a time. To be fair, the first thing I tried it for was making mashed potatoes. I cut them in about 1" cubes. Maybe if I had cut them smaller, it would have worked better. The turntable did not spin until the potatoes were partially mashed, and I ended up overworking them. They still had good-sized lumps. One beater goes on the left and one on the right, but I couldn't find any markings to tell me which was which. You can only fill the bowl 2/3 full of the maximum capacity. It's pretty and it has a small footprint and if I figure out that these issues are something I'm doing wrong, I will post that. So far, not impressed. I bought the mixer specifically to make mashed potatoes, so that was disappointing. Live and learn.

I used it one time the head in it broke when I was lifting it its on a rubber belt inside which lifts its up and down and it tore and broke the mixer itself is made of very cheap plastic and I paid 45.00 for mine with shipping of course I threw away the box when I got it so now I'm out 45.00

plastic... small... i do scrap the side when making dough and cake.. making dough the largest batch i made is like 8 cups of flours and of course the liquids, but too large so i cut it in half and perfect!! this does a great job actually... for kneading manually everything sticks in my hand, so it doesn't bother me even if i scrap the side while working, its better that doing the kneading myself, make sure to just use the lowest speed when kneading... for those who have high standards on stuff pls buy the expensive mixer... this one is lightweight, has suction on the bottom, but sometime it still moves,.. and make sure to clean it roughly lol, or you will see rust on your attachment, for $29 bucks don't expect too much.. this one still does a great job maybe for small families like ours :) hope this help :)

[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 bought it as a gift to myself before moving into my new house. I got so busy that I hadn’t had a chance to use it so yesterday I Christmas I thought it was a good a time as any to use the mixer for the first time since purchasing it. The day was already rough from the pipes bursting at our studio to the power being off at the house for over 24 hours starting the morning of Christmas Eve. I opened the box to hurry and cook Christmas dinner and save the day and there was no bowl. 😩 perfect color and size but could mix anything.

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.

I got this for the size, i didn't want a big heavy duty mixer for small tasks. The lowest speed is so fast, instead of blending ingredients it whipped them. The bowl doesn't start turning when first started. This is not what I wanted. Returning after one use

It depends on your expectations of what a mixer should do. It did not meet mine! I was mixing cookies. The mixer was going but pushing the ingredients to the side of the bowl. I had to stop the mixer to move the contents back to the middle where the beaters were.
