This is probably the best stand up mixer I have purchased. I've had a few, including one's that are significantly greater in price but I have to say this one has been the most durable and best functioning overall. Despite it's lower price it has all the same amenities as a pricier stand up mixer and I compared to others it is more powerful. It does not heat up quickly like some I've had before and I'm able to use attachments on it such as pasta noodle attachment and vegetable spiralizers on it that are made for more expensive stand up mixers. I'd recommend this product to anyone who is looking for a very reasonably priced stand up mixer. Great quality and great price!
