This a nice egg beater. Easy and comfortable to hold. The only complaint I have is the way it was shipped to me - in a paper shipping bag. Somewhere on the way to me, one of the beaters got bent and I couldn't crank it with the handle, so I had to work out on it until I got freed up so that it would spin, which brings me to the reason I chose this one over all the other ones. I thought the beaters were made with stainless steel. The the only thing I saw that was stainless steel (since I was able to bend the blade to straighten it out) was the post inside each beater, the outside guide that keeps the beaters off the bottom of your bowl, and maybe the rotary gear that turns with the handle (it seems sturdy). Overall, it works now, and since the beaters are thin metal that I can bend if I need to. I guess it's good, but I really thought that the entire beater would have been made from stainless steel. That is what I wanted, but not what I got. They need a better shipping method for these in some kind of a box with packing around it (instead of a cheap paper shipping bag), so that as it makes it way to it's destination and gets thrown around in a UPS truck, the product does not arrive bent. At least it wasn't so bad that I couldn't save it. I really like it and am looking forward to using it, but disappointed that it wasn't shipped better.
