This mixer should be renamed to Black & Decker jet engine. On the lowest speed, it is as fast as any normal mixer. Settings 2-5 (as well as the extremely useless “power boost”) are worthless. Save yourself the time and trouble and buy one that has a full range of useable speeds. As far as build quality, it does have decent construction. That doesn’t make it useable, though.

I took the mixer out of the box, inserted the beaters and turned it on just to try it out. I was shocked at the “lowest” speed. It was like the highest speed on my old mixer. Upon first use I learned was right. I placed the beaters in the bowl to cream butter/sugar. I had butter flying all over the kitchen. Then I tried adding the dry ingredients. Flourstorm!! I had to mix it in by hand until it was wet before I could use the mixer again. I wondered if, at that speed, I was completely overworking the flour and my banana bread would be too tough. Definitely returning. I imagine it would be great for the hard to mix things like doughs, but there’s no useable low speed.

I purchased this from a local discount store. I made cookie dough once and it pooped out on me. I returned it to the store and they replaced it with the same mixer. Again, I took it home. I use my mixer at most once a month for cookie dough or cake mixes. I have had it for over 6 months, but it has quit on me again. I give up!
