SunBeam MixMaster,

This review is from: Sunbeam 2371 MixMaster Stand Mixer, White (Kitchen)
I refused to pay $300.00 for a standmixer, and am glad to have found this one ! The glass bowls are very roomy and the height of the mixer allows ample room to work. The assortment of beaters should allow everyone to mix away ! The 350 watts of power helped blend a peanut butter cookie which can become thick. I found clean up quite easy with the glass bowls and the shape of the beaters, not alot of crevices for sticking.
The only negative is I was expecting a metal cast mixer. This one has alot of plastic/pvc to it. This makes me nervous as far as durability over years of use, as mentioned in the other reviews I was looking for one just like my Mom had. So far it has performed as I expected.

After hard thought, I just bought this to replace a Sunbeam 2366 purchased a couple of years ago, which looks identical except for the size of the motor. My 2366 became unusable as a stand machine because I was too rough trying to attach the mixer to the stand and broke the rather fragile plastic thingies in the stand that supported the attachment lever (so I'll be more careful with the new one). If I'd paid $500, I would be deeply disgruntled.
But I didn't pay $500, I paid $79, and my simple math tells me I can buy 6 of these for the cost of one KitchenAid with metal gears (do read the reviews about the plastic gears if you are seriously looking at the less expensive KitchenAid!). If this machine is as good as its predessor, it will do as fine a job of mixing as my daughter's KitchenAid, it's head tilts, and you can add ingredients while it's running, all of which are important to me. I do not do bread with it, I use my incredible $39 Sunbeam bread machine for...Read more

Mixmaster Stand Mixer, White,

This is a nice basic mixer if you do not plan on tripling your recipe, etc.
Amazon was wonderful when I had to replace the first one within 30 days because it burned out when I tripled by cookie recipe. So even though it was more powerful than my previous mixer, it somehow doesn't do well in thick dough. And I had not even put in the last 1/3 of the flour. So be careful what you mix. It is what you pay for.
