Believe the bad reviews!!!
I probably should have read more of the previous negative reviews. Upon arrival I gave it a test run. Beaters were inserted per instructions... several times to confirm no error...and the non-collared beater wobbled horribly every time it was turned it on. Like - HORRIBLY. The one saving grace is if you were to get hit by a wobbly beater flying off, the motor has such incredibly poor power it’s unlikely you would notice. At top speed it is probably half the strength of the 20 year old hand mixer I planned to retire. Also, I didn’t keep the mixer long enough to know how the body would hold up but the piece where the beaters attach oddly seemed to be very thin plastic. So disappointed! I expected MUCH better quality from Kitchenaid! Amazon handled the return and refund quickly. Shopping for a Cuisinart model now.
