BLACK+DECKER MX3000W vs KitchenAid KHM926

I'M going to try to do this with one hand see the spring there. We want to put it in this lower position right now. It's in the top position so put it...

"I've got it!" said one. "Let's make the beaters a different size than everyone else's, so you can't use the beater from an older mixer!" "I'll do you one better," cried another. "Let's make it so this is the only hand mixer in the world where you have to read the damn instructions to see how to put the attachments in! On top of that, let's make our beaters different, so they will only go in specific holes!" "Genius!," said the Design Squad. "What an improvement! Won't someone who is replacing, say, an old Hamilton Beach mixer they've had for 20 years, be surprised when none of his beaters and dough hooks and whisks fit, and he can't figure out how to put our new ones in!" "Let's also call them 'Turbo Beaters," suggested one, who was immediately hoisted up on the shoulders of the team and, to the tune of 'For He's A Jolly Good Fellow," was carried to the break room for a coffee and a Danish

this weighs about 2 pounds but I really don’t see it as being ergonomic and comfortable to hold. It is rather bulky. I tried shredding chicken with it and it did not work as well as the other handmixer that I have which is over 30 years old. those beaters are starting to get a tiny bit rusty and that’s the only reason I was looking for a replacement It has power but not enough for doing the job of shredding the chicken

It's big and heavy. So when I was thinking about what I might want for Christmas this year, I decided a hand mixer. Then I started to research hand mixers and ended up choosing this one. I really like it

Get a nice big bowl. First I'll cream two sticks of softened butter and my white sugar and brown sugar. We'll cream this together at speed 3. I'll sta...

it is faster, hotter and more even. We love it! In fact, it has started the chain of replacing ALL of our appliances with the ones from this line. It looks professional and high end. I love the handles and boxy look

I don't use a hand held mixer often but when I do I like for it to get the job done quickly without too much hassle. This does a great job mixing. The only nuance I need to adjust to is the different sized attachment holes. In my pic, you can one is larger than the other

not sure what happened since i've only used it for simple frosting and cake mixes, but by the time the issue arose, my Amazon warranty was expired. However KitchenAid still covered the situation. I was impressed at how quickly amazon customer service connected me to kitchenaid warranty dept, and i had a brand new mixer in my hands 2 days later with a prepaid return shipping label - all at no additional cost. Despite having an issue with the product, both amazon and kitchenaid were terrific at resolving it immediately

This economical blender is completely adequate for my needs, easy to use (I have no problem inserting or detaching beaters) and with all the power/speeds I need. The bowl rest doesn't work on smaller bowls, and I use mostly small bowls, so that was somewhat of a disappointment. And no, it's not as light as some others, but I use it for such short stints that this isn't much of an issue. In short, for those of we who aren't home chefs and get most of our meals from the microwave or take-out, this is a very good buy for the occasional, easy tasks

I was more than a surprised, I was amazed! First time using it, WOW I now understood this 'New Age Hand Mixer' as it was the best Hand Mixer I'd ever used in my life and oh so easy to clean, and better yet no loss of batter! The old-fashion hand mixtures I previously owned (from days gone by) was much harder to wash/clean as well as my having to lose some of the batter as the batter would 'stick' to the wider blades & grove. Also taking into account the fact that you'd have to 'manually dial up or down w/only 30-Speed (Low, Med & high) which never really worked as All 3-Speeds were quite high, splashing all over the place w/me practically having to wrap my one hand and forearm to keep splashes from going all over the place. This KitchenAid hand mixer w/much thinner blades is fantastic and once you hit Off it automatically stops, and then when you turn it on it starts as a nice controlled 'slow' speed which you simple press the Up Icon to increase the speed w/out any hassels. I can't believe I resisted trying this newer KitchenAid mixers for so long (foolish on my part) but I guess I just didn't believe the thin blades would really mix the batters well (it's better than fantastic) and I absolutely Love it! I bought the Empire Red color as 'Red' is my happy color and it's absolutely a true (blue/red) color… and not an orange/red color

As an autistic with stress issues I often find loud noises raise my blood pressure and get me anxious. Vacuums and such, ugh, awful. But this isn't that bad. Its sound is not very high pitched, which I believe is what I find stressful in a loud noise

The amount of torque on my wrist from both was the same and the noise generated from both was identical and not as quiet as some have stated in their reviews and is still noisy. The beaters ejected easily on both and both units cleaned up quickly after use. The bottom Line. The only improvement I personally found between the new 9 speed and my old 5 speed was the lower speed on #1 setting

The cost to replace the attachments was close to the cost of this unit. There is plenty of mixing power. Controls are logical and straight forward. We have given it a good workout without issue, I do not see the reason to buy a more expensive machine

It was applied crooked, but I'm afraid I will tear it up if I try to correct it. My previous Kitchen Aid had a sturdy, bendable metal for the banner and the appliance seemed to be built out of sturdier plastic. The overall new appliance seems to be covered with a lighter plastic. Since this is the way appliances and everything else is made now, I don't have any recourse in a hand-held mixer in this price range

There is no slow speed on this mixer, the dial is so touchy, you barely tap it & it goes to high speed right away.

Not as powerful as my older kitchenAid. The attachments aren't as good as the older models. I thought 9 speeds would give me more power. Not great for cookies or creaming cold butter

It quit in the middle of me beating egg whites. I was happy with it while it lasted. I now am looking for another brand with two whisks

UPDATE: 1 year later - I have had this mixer now for a year and I can’t tell you how many times I say “I LOVE THIS MIXER!” Every time I start mixing something I can’t get over the ease of holding this mixer (extremely light) and the left handed swivel on the cord- perfect. After a year it’s still quiet , sturdy, smooth Transition on the speeds and a tremendous workhorse. Best mixer I have ever owned. Still loving it!
