Just What I Had Hoped For!
By Colleen Slaton
I have owned and applied assorted dissimilar mixers, including the costly one which I gave away because I didn’t like it at all. Another Famous Brand I owned was so lightweight, it would move around on the counter while in use and would not turn the bowl, therefore, I had to stand there and continously scrape the bowl.
I am only giving the West Bend 41135 four stars because it is not perfective but it does come close! The bowl turns, there is room to add ingredients without stopping the motor, and raising the beaters, it is heavy sufficient to stay in place, it may be applied as a hand mixer, and it has all the speeds anybody could want or need. If the mfg. had just color coded the beaters and the holes they belong in, they could be inserted quickly and easily. But that is no big deal–only a minor thing. I have color coded them myself so now, it is my dream machine! I am a proud and happy owner of this West Bend mixer.

Very pleased. Good buy in stand mixer.
By J. Koschmann
I have had various mixers, and this is a good one. It is quiet, something that can not be said for numerous mixers. It does not spatter. It mixes actually well. Some reviewers have complained when it comes to confusedness regarding which beater goes into which hole, and the instruction manual is mixing up on this matter. It appears that the beaters and their holes have been changed to remove the confusion, all since those reviews and the instruction book were written. One beater has a hexagonal metal piece at the insertion end, while the other has a circular one. The mixer, in turn, has correspondingly shaped holes, and this removes all potential for confusion. Very pleased!

Better than my Kitchenaid Artisan
By Erik
Of the three mixers I purchased in the last year this one satisfies me the most. It’s got a wide bowl making it thence requiring little effort to add ingredients to. It’s more like the mixers of the past which were actually better than the ones that are presently being promoted.
It’s apparent that mercantile interests are seizing on sure merchandise or types of manufacture, and forcing the buyers to be satisfied with the shoddier inferior merchandise being foisted on us. All this comes from China. The exploiters get more earnings and gain from selling with China, thence others choices are being suppressed.
I’ve had a good deal of perturbing experiences with merchandise in the last few years. I purchased firstborn a Sunbeam mixer. It was junk!
I sent it back and purchased next the Kitchen aid. It weighs a ton, and is thence difficult to move around or maneuver into position for respective uses. The bowl is tall, which for when whipping cream or egg whites is desirable, but it’s rather a tight fit to the machine making it difficult to add ingredients to. The plastic device that is supposed to be employed for adding ingredients can’t satisfactorily be employed for sure things, like adding boiled sugar to whipped egg whites.
