Does it come with a whisk attachment or do you use the beaters for heavy whipping cream? Do they work the same as a whisk?

I use the beaters for frosting and such but I suspect they would work for whipped cream

It's designed to also use one beater as a whisk. However you would need both beaters for whipped cream. It also has a single "turbo" beater for milkshakes, soups and such. All work great.

It does! I use mine for this all the time. I like that the beaters are are of good quality, and sturdy! Hope this helps you!

there is an attachment that comes with the mixer for that kind of mixing, good for ice cream and milk, (not ice)

I have not actually used the beater this way, but the attachments are secure when I use them for anything else. I think it would work well to make your sauce.

It comes with a whisk, dough hook and a paddle attachments. Easily interchangeable.

Yes, and it is made for kneading dough and really does a nice job in the appropriate speed and mixer. Start slow. I have the Cuisinart Hand mixer 3 speeds (CHM-3), and it came only with whiskers (beaters), so I click these kneading hooks in and works perfectly! And do not try to adapt any whisker (beaters) to knead any dough (light or heavy whatsoever), because they will pull up the dough to the posts holes and clog it/

I have been very happy with my mixer. I did purchase a beater than has the rubber "spatula" finish on it that works great to scrape the bowl as you mix.

I have not used it for this purpose, however, my old mixer had the same kind of beaters and worked just fine on egg whites or cream. My one complaint about the mixer is that it did not arrive with a small bowl. I'm sure meringue and whipped cream would turn out better in a smaller bowl. If I order one from Sunbeam, I'm going to specify that it has the attachment on the bottom so that it will turn at the correct speed.

Yes, I got 3 attachments with the mixer...bread hook, egg beater, and paddle. I love this machine!

I think the flat 3 blade beater would be better. The whip is for lighter batters or mixes.

No. It comes as the picture looks. 2 beaters. Very good ..very strong mixer and ive really enjoyed mine. I feel for the price you really cant go wrong. Im sure you can find whisk beaters for it online or take one out of the mixer and take to a local store..hardware stores sometimes stock them ..as well as Walmart..Kmart..Sears or the like.

The mixer itself is approx. 2 lbs. without beaters. It ships with the beaters, whip and a blender end along with a storage bag. They always estimate on the shipping with it double boxed. It isn't any heavier than any other hand mixer.

I've only used the beater with the glass bowl thus far, so I'm not sure how the other attachments would work, although I assume they would be fine. I actually think the glass bowl is a better shape than the metal one. Perhaps it is the large circumference, but I find that my liquid ingredients don't spit back at me like they do when I'm adding them to the metal bowl. I finally removed the metal bowl and now keep the glass bowl on the mixer all of the time. I, also, love that it has a cover and can remain dust free. I wish the mixer came with the glass bowl. I bought my daughter a mixer, and I'll probably be purchasing the glass bowl for her, too.

The beater blade attachment is the open flat paddle style that works great for cake batter and most things like that. I find myself using the whisk attachment more often just as a matter of preference.

I think the beater blade works great. It doesn't completely clean the bowl every single time, you do have to scrape from time to time, but not nearly as much as I used to have to scrape the bowl with my KA mixer. With the KA mixer I really needed a third party beater blade. With this one, I have not felt the need. I haven't had to scrape nearly as much with this one. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this mixer. I use it every single day sometimes twice a day. Awesome!

The beaters are very secure, but with a firm push, they eject as they should. I have enjoyed the mixer and recommend it!

No, it comes with the three shown: whisk, beater and dough hook. I use the dough hook for cookies.
