Finally!! I took back the Sumbeam tht didnt work and bought a kitchenaid. I am so impressed. My hubby thinks I am crazy for paying 200.00 for a mixer. It is made so much better and seems to be alot sturdier.

You will be happier. Sunbeam doesn't make them like they used to. My FIL bought me a sunbeam. It only lasted 5 years and I am only a hobbiest.

I've had my sunbeam for 2 years now and use it alot. The only problem i have is finding attatchements for it, paddle, whisk. It does get a lil hot when i mix up a batch of buttercream... maybe if i wish real hard my DH will buy me a kitchen aid for christmas.

I got my KA last year for Christmas from my parents and I cried. I love it and don't know how I lived without it! Great investment!

I got a 300 watt KA at my bridal shower 3 years ago and have loved it. Now that I'm doing more baking (and MMF) my DH just got me a KA Pro 600 for me for Christmas (he wanted to get the free bowl while they were still offering it- it's all wrapped for Christmas...) I'm so happy! I'm still going to use my original and use the Pro for MMF and larger batches of cookies, double cake batters etc. I can't wait!!!

my hubby finally sucummed to my not too subtle hints and i got a pink KA 500 series mixer for christmas. they cost over $650 here in australia, so i think he was on the verge of losing his mind if I asked for one anymore!!!

I did finally use it last night. I can't believe the difference!! I loved my 5.00 second hand store mixer, but I can't believe the difference in the cake batter!!! I always thought a mixer was a mixer!!

Cjstor, I just stumbled across this post of yours and saw that you are from Washington CH, OH. I can't believe that - that's where my in-laws live! I have a KA, and I LOVE it also. I don't think I would ever buy another brand of mixer again (if I ever have to, they last so long!)
