Finally, a hand-mixer with a slow speed slow enough not to spew flour everywhere! My mom still has her very old mixer from when she was a teenager. When you have it on the slowest setting, it slowly incorporates the dry ingredients in. But every modern mixer that I'd bought had such high speeds that even the low would just blow the flour out of the bowl, making a huge mess everywhere. Higher speeds and the turbo boosts were never even needed! It was always frustrating for me to use this as I never could seem to find a bowl tall enough to keep everything inside. This mixer's slow setting actually is slow enough to be useful, though. I can gently mix the wet and dry ingredients without making a big mess! I've only used this a few times so far, so I can't speak to its durability, but I'm very pleased so far. It balances well on its end when you need to set it down and is such a pretty color too. When I looked at the manual I was a bit sad to realize that other models came with extra attachments, however after looking them up it seems that those extra attachments, which can be purchased individually, are also compatible with this mixer. Since these beaters can be used for most things, I felt reassured that this was the right model for me, since I might as well not pay for the extra attachments unless I end up actually needing them in the future.
