Comment:
I purchased this mixer less than a month ago and I have used it about 3 times to mix brownies and cookie dough. At first it was fine, but now the beaters are clicking together when mixing. I am using the mixer and inserting the beaters as directed by the instruction manual. I suspect the beaters are going to break so I am going to return the mixer.

Comment:
This replaced a 250W model from a different manufacturer. We gave up on it after the first use - trying to whip up some cream. It is way underpowered. Can't imagine how it would do mixing a dough or similar.<br />Not recommended.
