is the beaters rotate in opposite direction & if the bowl simultaneously spin around its base

The bowl remains stationary. The KitchenAid stand mixer uses a planetary gear system to mix the ingredients in the bowl using any one of several attachments - a whisk (they call it a wire whip), a dough hook, or an edge beater. The best way to see how it works is to go to youtube and search for "Kitchenaid mixer in action". If you do much baking or cooking, you will find the KitchenAid Stand Mixer very handy and worthwhile.

The "beaters" is actually a single attachment. It spins from the center and the whole attachment moves in a larger circle. The bowl does not spin.

The beater moves in an off-center circular manner which creates an alternating beating affect around the bowl which remains stationary. It is very effective at beating, whisking, and kneading with the different attachments.

No, this unit is not made to be bi-directional. However, once you turn it off, it spins down pretty quick.

I believe it secures with a small turn/rotation. One direction secures the bowl and the other releases it. It's basically a thread but only rotates about 5 degrees.

Read the description. This is a bowl-lift model. The mixer DOES NOT tilt back.

The description says, "Unique mixing head orbits around bowl as beater rotates in the opposite direction". That sounds planetary to me.

Hello Cindy, The bowl locks into the base by giving it a quarter clockwise turn.

No, the bowl has a twist lock system that keeps it in place which keeps it from spinning when you are kneading dough which is a good thing, thanks for asking...Randy

Mine did the same thing when I first got it. You can adjust the height of the beaters. Lift the top up, like you're going to remove the bowl. There is a screw underneath where the top attaches to the stand. Use a screwdriver to adjust the beater. You turn it to the right to lower it. That fixed mine.

NO. The bottom rotates because if it didn't it would be heated up too much in one place and warp. That is mentioned in the instructions, and they also say to allow the heating element to cool down for a minute before stopping the platter, or it could warp.

Yes, and it "spins" very well, a smaller version I bought for spices was disappointing, it turns, but does not spin,

I believe it spins clockwise. It broke like two weeks after I bought it. I cannot spin it and let you know for sure. It has a switch just for on and off not spinning direction.

without knowing exact measurements I'd say the mixer is standard size compared to other mixers & yes the bowl turns as it mixes.

The bowl does not rotate, but the bladed do and stop when little fingers poke them. It is small, so will fit in a small play kitchen.

No, the bottom always rotates. But it would heat a single slice pretty fast, even rotating.

Only one has a rotating base. I believe you can have them both as round bases but only one will twirl. Hope this helps.

What do you mean by rotate not by hand? If you put a hot dog on it you can flip it and heat each side

It can be turned to face whatever direction you need but I would not say it "spins".
