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.

Bought this mixer for making baked goods. Mixed wet cookie dough fairly well. Mixed my cupcake dough well too....but when it came time to make the frosting that was a no go. It wouldn't mix well at all and stripped the beaters out almost instantly. I would have thought that something that came with bread hooks would have been able to make a powdered sugar frosting. I was very disappointed, but I guess you get what you pay for. If you are only mixing egg whites, cake batter, or maybe mashed potatoes it would be fine. But, don't try mixing anything that has the least bit of resistance...even on high!

I love my new mixer! I cook a lot of things from scratch and it has been a time saver. Not to mention the fact that it's as cute as it can be! I was pleasantly surprised to see how user friendly it is, considering the modest price . If you are looking for an everyday helper in the kitchen, this is it. Easy to set up, easy to CLEAN up, which for this girl is exactly what I needed. Way to go Dash Go!

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 love this mixer and its beautiful color. I baked a coconut cake the other day and it turned out perfect. Takes up very little room which I like and it looks like the larger ones by another name. Has enough power as any handheld mixer (250 watts) and great if you live in an apartment with little counter space. The price is great and the different colors are nice as well. You can whip, mix, make pizza dough-- do just about anything you can do with a hand held mixer. Clean up was a breeze. Great mixer for older teenagers learning to cook and bake. Dough hooks included along with recipes.

I had a Hamilton Beach stand mixer that I lost while moving. I found this one online and picked it up so I could have one for the holidays and this mixer is really nice. I can put my ingredients in and walk away. Very powerful too. I've only used it on anything higher than 1 once since 1 works just fine.

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.

I used my stand mixer first for homemade bread: it handled the flour like a champ, with the “paddle” attachment. It didn’t bog down or sound stained as my previous stand mixer did(decades ago!) but blended the yeast, liquid, egg, oil and 4 cups of four beautifully. After four cups of flour, I wasn’t about to add more flour but did as I’ve done for years: mix the rest by hand, which is not a problem. (That’s just bread making!) . The following day was cupcakes. After showing my husband how the mixer worked, he said it performed great and was easy to use. Our kitchen is quite small with little counter space. For now it’s on the counter tho and has done a fine job. The next test is gluten free bread in two days, and I’m not afraid!!

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.

Nice looking but too small. Don’t even plan to use bc it’s so small. Waste of money even at Black Friday deal price.
