Hello to all the mommies out there. I want to buy the Beaba but was wondering if the two mixers is needed? Also if it mixes good.? Thx

I find the dual steamer very convenient as I like to make a few things at a time then freeze. So far every thing has turned out pretty good and I'm happy with my purchase.

I have the Pro2X and have owned it for about 4 months. I really like having the two canisters, since I tend to make food and then freeze it. I like being able to steam two foods at once. Makes the whole process go that much faster. One thing, you can't blend/mix on both sides, just on one, so you steam the food then blend one after another on the primary side. The blending works well. I have been able to get the smooth consistency needed for babyfood, so no complaints there. My opinion is if you want/need to save time, the second cansiter in the Pro2X is definitely worth the money. I estimate it saves you 20 minutes of overall time per two foods you are planning to cook, since you are steaming both foods at once. If you don't care as much about saving the time then it's not as worth it. BTW - my opinion is the larger canister in the PRO is definitely worth it over the std so you can make food and then freeze the rest and don't have to be making food all the time.

I was looking at this mixer.. but saw on topten reviews of this mixer.. IT DOES NOT HAVE planetary action. Looks like some conflicting info here so I'll research more.

I finally bought the new BBCCX20 and could not be happier. Have you tried the basic white out of the recipe book? I started with that one just to be sure it worked and then started making whole wheat with cereal, nuts, fruit, everything and I can't believe it always works. Some loaves are short and sq

Yes, it comes with a couple pans and a couple mixes. I bought additional mixes so my kids could use it more than 1 time right away. There's also a recipe book that shows you his to make treats with regular ingredients, too.

No you need to do that separately but if you have a kitchen aid mixing machine use that or mix by hand

I think Hamilton beach has always been a good brand.Iam very pleased with my mixer..Have used it about 10 times so far and love it...Have made cheese cake about 4 times,and it did good,although I think it does better when cream cheese is soft, and to add 1 pkg. at a time..Have mixed cookie dough and cake batter,and it does wonderful..Iam not disapointed at all.I just couldnt see spending what they want for kitchen aid, and I do think kitchen aid is overrated...read alot of reviews, very happy with the Hamilton Beach...good luck to you

So what's the answer? Either the company is shipping these with two different power supplies, (120v or 220v) or people are responding to this question inaccurately. I just received my mixer and the power supply is definitely 120v. This is the second mixer that I have had to return for this problem. Is there any chance that the company can hop on here and give us an authoritative answer to this question?

I can't say for sure which mixer is better but I have had excellent results from the Yamaha MG16XU. It has worked flawlessly and we have even had some gigs where it rained and the board got wet and the table it was on blown over. I just wiped it down, let it dry out, and it is back in business. I think the Yamaha rocks!

I've never experienced unmixed bottom ingredients, as my mixer seems to "dig in" and "get down." Sometimes I have to scrape the sides, but no more than I had to with my KA. Perhaps considering the order of ingredients added might help - with wet ingredients added first.

Hey Sam,We have both the big version and the small version of this product, and we have been happy with both. If you have a frother, the two cup version makes two perfect sized mochas; we've only used the bigger version to make up to four cups, but it works great for that. Hope this helps!

The mixture does mix well. The noise level is about a 5 or so ( no louder than our old Sunbeam. The only complaint I have is that if you are using the plastic "guard cover" it is very difiucult to add additional ingredients with the mixer running. So I just cut it off and raise the guard and add them. If you decide that you want the smaller mixing bowl for this unit be sure and check with the Oster people for the new bowl. I understand the small bowl will not fit the new model.

I buy regular cake mix and use 1/4 cup mix and 1 tablespoon water. works good and tastes better. and saves money. My daughter doesn't like the taste of the Hasbro mix

you can make multiple batches, it makes them small, so you would get multiple batches if you made the full recipe of anything. this machine gets scorching hot, so you have to be careful with the bottom burning. if i'm honest i don't really use it because it is more of a hassle than it is fun.

I have taken it all apart. That is the only way I could get it clean. I am a bit disappointed with the mixer as a whole. I hope you enjoy yours!

You don't need a mixer if you have this item. You can use a mixer along with it for some more options but I've gone out with just the laptop, Hercules and powered speakers.

Hi! I bought it and no it didn't come with a mixer. Its the container with the powder and a scoop. I use my blender with ice and its awesome!

It does not mix so you would need to stir afterwards. We have twins so this machine was a life saver. We've saved so much time and can make formula whenever it is needed.
