Good mixer, folds down well and is a great storage saver. It is a shame it isn't that durable. The bowl has to be held in place if the mix is on the thicker side - when creaming butter and sugar together the mix is always thick - if it isn't held the bowl sometimes comes off the base. The mixer also stops working if the mixture is too thick: I think it overworks the engine and it just doesn't turn on again until you let it rest for 10mins. Quite frustrating whilst baking so make sure your ingredients are soft.. On the plus side I love the pallet knife it comes with, the colour and it really doesn't take up much room.
