Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Black & Decker MX250 Power Pro Hand Mixer, White

Customer Review: Ultra 00ber speed! .. but plenty of torque
Summary: 2 Stars

I got it to replace an older, weak Sunbeam or summat that was rated at 100 watts, I broke that mixing some Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. I agree on the other reviews about it's speed, OMG it's so fast at 1!! I can't imagine why you would need the other 4 speeds (2-5) OR the POWER BOOST!..well maybe the BOOST on #1 for abit more torque/power on really thick dough. Try mixing up some flower and powdery stuff alone..you can do it, but I was worried that it would go flying everywhere.

Don't get me wrong, it worked through some Gingerbread cookie dough & another batch of C.C. cookie dough just fine...but OMG it is so fast.

These newer wire type whisks work great and clean up quick, hardly any of the dough stuck to them after a quick spin in the air. But I noticed when cleaning these B&D wisks that they seem to be a bit flimsy. I almost pulled one out of the socket/hole on the wisks shaft.

Other than that, it's a decent well built hand mixer. Just if they (B&D) lowered the speeds, and made the wisks more robust (and maybe with stainless steel), this would be a great buy.

If you want speed control, spend afew extra bucks on a Cuisinart or Kitchen Aid.

Description of Black & Decker MX250 Power Pro Hand Mixer, White

With 250 watts of power, 5 speeds, power boost and professional chrome plated wire beaters the MX250 makes easy work of the heaviest cookie dough. The included spatula attachment conveniently scrapes the sides of the bowl as you mix. The unit features a comfort grip and convenient bowl rest.
