Small and reliable

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.

I bought this for my 12-year-old daughter and it is perfect for a child. She wanted to KitchenAid but I wasn't in a spend that much! It does work but the speed is very fast no matter what setting you put it on and it is of cheap quality. Works though to make a beginners cake or cookies.

I have been wanting a mixer for quite some time now and I finally bought one. Instead of spending $200 plus on a Kitchen Aid, I decided to give this one a shot first, and I'm glad I did! It saved me a lot of $$$. I used it for the first time yesterday to make peanut butter cookies and it worked amazing! Can't wait to look up recipes that require the use of a mixer.

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.

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!

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.

bought this maybe 4-5 months ago just to see if I would like a stand mixer. I did write a review that was 5 stars.....now im back to purchase a new mixer. making cookie dough the other day and the beaters started hitting each other and then locked up. I thought they were bent but they have already burned up the gears.....my husband said the motor is still good but the gears? that hold the beaters are stripped. so in the garbage it goes...I did get 4 months use out of it but I only used maybe 6-7 times....so im back to purchase a stand mixer that is quality. I know for sure that this style of mixer is what I need. I do like the bowl so not a total loss.

This mixer works great. Love the color. Looks great next to my Retro red microwave. Use it about 3 times a week with no problems. Great price. And if it does break I'll will buy another one. But it does the job for me like making cakes, cookies, brownies ect. Love it. Thanks Walmart.

[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.
