I used this mixer for the first time just last night. I like the features on the mixer, even thought it is a little big. While it seems to work ok, there is an electrical smell when in use. I will use it some more while the holidays coming. If the smell continues, I will return for a refund and select another (new) mixer.

I ordered a mixer and was sent the wrong color. The box was damaged and could not even send it back because the shipping label was not readable due to shipping damage. The mixer is scratched all over and smells like burning oil when in operation. I wanted/ordered the silver one and was sent a blue one. I have since thrown the thing in the gargabe.

I was searching for a new hand mixer which was powerful, yet had additional features, when I came across this Bravetti. The Bravetti has a 250 watt motor & extra beaters & a dough hook - a great added plus! I LOVE IT! It is more powerful & heavier duty than what I was even looking for - I can't wait to put it to a tougher test than what I've already used it for. This is the first time I've ever purchased a refurbished item & so far it seems great. The only thing I don't like with this refurbished item, is that I was unable to specify my color choice.
