Know before you buy
The Soft Start feature automatically begins the mixer at a lower speed regardless of the setting you choose. This gradual acceleration helps prevent ingredients from splattering out of the bowl when you first turn the mixer on.
Yes, the 9-speed motor is designed for versatility. It includes dedicated stainless steel dough hooks specifically for kneading yeast doughs, and the Turbo Beater II accessories are engineered to handle dense cookie batters with ease.
The blending rod is primarily designed for cold applications like smoothies or shakes. We recommend using it for room-temperature or cold ingredients to ensure the best performance and safety.
The cord is designed to lock into either the left or right side of the mixer. This allows you to position the cord away from your workspace, preventing it from dragging through your ingredients or getting tangled while you move the mixer around the bowl.
Yes, all included stainless steel attachments—the beaters, dough hooks, and whisk—are dishwasher safe for easy cleanup. The main mixer body should simply be wiped down with a damp cloth.
The unit weighs approximately 2 pounds. Its ergonomic soft-grip handle is designed to reduce hand fatigue, making it comfortable to hold even when you are whipping ingredients for an extended period.
