Specifications side by side

Hand mixer or stand mixer?

A 9-speed hand mixer handles cakes, cookies, whipped cream and mashed potatoes, stores in a drawer and costs far less than a stand mixer. For regular bread dough or big batches, a stand mixer is the better tool; see our other lists for those.

Worth it if

• You bake occasionally and have little counter space
• You mostly whip, beat and mix batters

Skip it if

• You knead bread every week
• You would rather walk away while it mixes

Why this list became hand mixers

The original list was meant for 9-speed stand mixers, but none in the hub's data list exactly 9 speeds; every product here was already a hand mixer. We retitled it to match. Braun's HM5130 was dropped as a twin of the HM5100, a Cuisinart HM-90 bundled with a toaster was removed, and a renewed KitchenAid with almost no listing detail was trimmed. Ranking follows listed specs and features; we did not test these.

The hub checks offers daily.

Choosing a 9-speed hand mixer

1. Look for a slow start

   Cuisinart's SmoothStart, SMEG's Smooth Start and Yomelo's soft start ramp up gently to keep flour in the bowl.

2. Check the beaters

   Breville uses rubber-edged beaters; Cuisinart's have no center post; Braun uses a combined MultiWhisk.

3. Storage

   Cuisinart, Breville, STELLAGRO and Yomelo include a case or compartment for attachments.

4. Warranty

   Cuisinart lists 3 years and Yomelo 18 months; check the others with the seller.
