Review on Hamilton Beach Electric Stand Mixer, 4 Quarts: Dough Hook, Flat Beater Attachments, Splash Guard, 7 Speeds with Whisk - Black with Top Handle: A Comprehensive Review and Buying Guide by Ana Walker

I am very disappointed with this product. Doesn't seem to be that durable. The mixer literally shook violently when I tried to knead the cookie dough. The shield is useless. It has a very small opening in an awkward spot for adding ingredients while the blender is running. Every time I wanted to add more ingredients I had to stop the mixer and tilt my head and then carefully inject because the mixer got in the way. The shell is small at the top. You only get one bowl. I need multiple bowls for cooking and baking and you can't use a regular bowl. I couldn't find it on the web either. Eventually the mixer just wouldn't start. I'm just shuffling the receipt and it won't work. At one point I tried unplugging and then plugging it back in. I will return this product, it doesn't work. What a disappointment!
