Hand Mixer Features

The KitchenAid®Classic 3-Speed, Classic Plus 5-Speed and Ultra Power

5-Speed Hand Mixers offer a host of conveniences, including a powerful yet lightweight motor, intuitive speed control, and easy-to-clean design. An electronic sensor automatically adjusts the mixer power to maintain a steady beater speed when the firmness of your mix changes.

The Turbo Beater™ Accessories that come with your mixer have an open shape with no center post: this design permits thorough mixing with no clogging, little splashing, and minimal food collection.

Your mixer is designed to mix cookie doughs and cake batters, mash potatoes, and whip heavy cream and egg whites. With the optional dough hooks and liquid blender rod, the mixer can also knead yeast bread doughs and blend smoothies, milkshakes, soups, and sauces.
