BHM800SIL Handy Mixer for Baking, Silver

Powerful, quiet, and extremely versatile. I use it for shredding meat, mixing small batches, and even kneading dough. The speed wheel, built-in light, and quick-eject attachments make it very easy to use and clean. Pricey, but 100% worth it.

Great replacement for my last hand mixer that died. I appreciate the silicone-coated beater - much less racket! I've use all three beaters for various things and all work well. I like the design - the thumbwheel for speed adjustment works well, and I like an on/off button. Beaters insert and pop out easily. The light is a great upgrade from my last mixer. All parts store nicely in the provided container. Well designed and pleasant to use.

Every once in a while, you get a gadget that is, like, the ultimate tool for the job. This is it. Quiet, powerful motor. It adjusts to keep its speed when it gets a little bogged down by thick stuff. The beaters are very sturdy and work great with cookie dough, and the additional whisk and dough-kneaders are good. The rubber coatings on the bottom of the beaters keep them from scratching up your bowls. The light is a nice feature. The timer on the display is useful too. I guess it could only be better if it also changed the TV channel. It's a little pricey, but I feel like this is probably my "forever" mixer. Definitely would buy again.

I never write a review on things I've just received, but I'm making an exception for the Breville hand mixer. The Breville is the #1 recommended hand mixer on the internet. But given its price, it wasn't my first choice. I'm 63 years old. I believe in buying the best that you can afford. You'll save money in the long run. For instance, my cookware is solid, multilayered, stainless steel. It'll last my lifetime. I apply this philosophy to everything, researching each purchase beforehand. But, the Breville at $150, seemed awfully expensive for a hand mixer. I've been through 3 Kitchenaid hand mixers. My first one lasted 20+ years. The second lasted 2 years, but was the classic 5 speed, so I bought the digital 9 speed, 5 years ago. It started vibrating an awful lot a year ago, and it finally through a beater out while I was making whipped cream, a bad sign. Kitchenaid has gone downhill since Whirlpool bought it. Determined to avoid Kitchenaid, I went to online, professional reviews. The vast majority graded Breville as #1. I had no doubt about the quality, since I own 2 other Breville appliances. But, the $150 price tag about made me gag. I made a huge mistake by buying a Hamilton Beach "professional" hand mixer. With a 1.3 amp DC motor, it should have been more powerful than the .8 amp Kitchenaid mixer. It wasn't. It not only was slower at the highest speed, I easily stopped the beaters by putting my hand on them while the mixer was on speed 1 (I can't do that with the Kitchenaid). It went back. Mixer #2 should have been a great mixer. I bought a Braun MultiMix. At 350 watts, it's the most powerful one of the bunch. It's made by Braun in Romania. I really liked it, that is until it threw one of the beaters into the bowl while I was mixing cake batter. It started vibrating badly, indicating it was out of balance. At first, I requested a replacement from Amazon, but changed my mind after thinking about it. The Brawn was almost $100. A Kitchenaid 9 speed is $110. I decided to pony up the money for the Breville. Just the heft of the box told me that the build must be very good. The Breville outweighs all of the other mixers. I'm disabled and I've just had rotator cuff surgery, but I had no problems handling the mixer. It's very balanced, with the weight being over the beaters. It's whisper quiet. The light is a welcome addition and lights up what's being mixed very nicely. The beaters fit nicely in the unit; they don't clank or hit each other, even at high speed. Pushing the speed wheel put it into turbo, which is speed 9. The up counting timer is a welcome feature for timed beating. You simply know that you're holding and using a quality appliance from the get-go. I made some old fashioned peanut butter fudge from my grandmother's recipe (the cooker kind). The secret to good fudge is in the beating at the end. Grandmother did it by hand. I use a hand mixer. Fudge turns heavy and stiff, so weak mixers won't work. The Breville didn't slow down or react at all. This is a minor test of the Breville. It's late today. Tomorrow I'm going to make real Bavarian soft pretzels. I usually make bread in my stand mixer, but I'm going to make it with the Breville and dough hooks. I'll update this review. So far, I don't regret spending the extra money OM this mixer, if it lasts as long as my other Breville appliances.

I had a cheap hand mixer from Walmart for 15 years. It sucked and I knew it- it eventually died and I bought this as a high end replacement. This is so fantastic and I can’t believe more manufacturers haven’t made upgrades like this. The light is game changing for seeing what you are mixing any time of day. I can mix whipping cream in minutes with this - no stand mixer required. I like the timer function and pause button for recipes that set specific times. This mixer is slightly heavy but it is worth it to me. I have no issues with the attachments like some. I’m going to guess it is user error, not matching them to the correct side or aligning them properly before seating them in place. Also love how functional the plug is to use. I am not a chef by any means but make a variety of tiered cakes and other baked goods. This mixer is much easier to pull out and clean up than my stand mixer. I highly recommend this hand mixer.

I bought this for my wife less than a year ago and it has been a hassle. She is enjoys making cakes and cookies but apparently that is too much for this mixer. The Kitchenaid does all the heavy lifting in the kitchen so this was only occasionally used. First it started with the beaters coming apart. They have the rubber coating to make them silent but they are really cheaply constructed. I should have taken that as a warning sign. So far, two of them have come apart at the welds. If you try to mix stick butter, they are not going to last long. Then while making frosting, a white plastic piece came out of one of the holes where the beaters insert. Now none of the attachments can lock in. I should have stuck with a better brand but I thought maybe if I paid more I would get better quality. Well, not in this case. I will say that when it worked, my wife did like it but a functioning mixer is better than a constantly breaking one. If you do any real baking, pass on this one.

Great mixer. Love the light that illuminates the bowl while mixing and the built in timer. The beaters are rubber tipped so it makes it easy to mix all contents in the bowl and is less noisy. The attached case that encloses the cord and beaters makes storage simple and compact.

Im not a huge baker but I like to have quality tools when I do bake! I am totally impress! I’ve used it twice. Last time it was for mash potatoes. Never had such fluffy mash potatoes in my life!!! It’s sturdy, beautiful and very well made. I love the pull out ring for the « blades » also reproduce for the electric cord! Brilliant! The light is a very nice add on. And the electronic timer should help greatly when instruction gives you a duration for « beating » .

Muy buen producto para cocina, de muy buena calidad

My old faithful Braun mixer finally gave it up so, after much research, I finally landed on this Breville mixer. It is a lot more powerful than what I had previously so took some getting used to, but it is fairly lightweight, quiet and very easy to change the speed. The scraper beaters do a great job (but you do have to be careful - I covered my counter and backsplash with whipped cream) and they have held up well. The mixing light is actually more helpful than I expected I love the storage compartment so everything is together in a compact space. Overall a great buy.

¡Me fascinó! ¡Excelente producto! Funciona super bien, buena calidad, bien construida. Me encantó que tiene luz, buen tamaño y peso, a parte de ser un diseño elegante y súper manejable.

Best beaters I’ve ever used!
