Sunbeam Burst of Power hand mixer
This mixer is powerful, comfortable to hold, has a nice long cord....BUT.... the placement of the cord is in the worst possible place. Instead of it being on the side, it's right on the bottom and every time you sit the mixer down, it falls over. As a custom cake decorator I've been through countless mixers in the last 25 years, and even though I have always loved the burst of power mixer, this newest design is by far the worst. I don't know why they changed the design in the first place, the old one was perfect. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. In this case, it might be a nice looking and strong mixer, but it's the most frustrating. You're working with batters or doughs which is messy enough, but when a heavy mixer falls over and takes the bowl with it... imagine the frustration.
That one small adjustment in the placement of the cord, and I would have given this mixer 5 stars instead of 3.
An OK mixer
I purchased this mixer when my older one (identical model) died after about 10 years of service. I loved my older one and never had a problem with it. The new one, however, has a sitcky "burst of power" button. When you push it in, it takes a while for it to return to its original position once released. Until it is back in its original position you cannot turn off the mixer! A bit frutrating and potentially messy! I still love the "burst of power" feature and would probably look into the newer style Sunbeam is makeing that has the "burst of power" button separate from the speed selector switch.
