How heavy is this machine? I'm a contractor and always on the road. I don't want to lug around a heavy mixer.

The machine is very light and relies on suction-cups to keep it in place on your counter/surface. The entire unit is pretty much plastic - and as such I would question its use in a portable contractor situation. This is not a very powerful unit in my opinion.

It is about 8 pounds I think - I don't know in what capacity your travel would include the mixer, but, If you put it in a rolling cart/basket, it is probably easy to take along to wherever you are baking...Easier than a massage table - I have some experience with that!

The floor is completely fixed, do not move. Lighter than I thought. But the bowl is too small The dough is well

It's not all that heavy, but I really wouldn't want to take it on the road with me

The glass bowl is quite heavy, but the mixer is not that heavy (in comparison to kitchenaid I would definitely say lighter)

Mine is a very low mileage model. But I can say it is a pleasure to use after having some low cost sanders in the past. I think, even with extended usage, the vibration level is low enough to not cause any stress from using it.

I just purchased this mixer, works great for cookie baking. Sounds like you need a heavier duty mixer.

According to my wife it handles frosting quite easily.....also handles heavy dough very well...it is a workhorse at 800 watts.

This is mounted on the sides the contractor added 5/8wood to brace it. The mixer is pretty heavy so wood that can bear the weight is mecessary. My guy also installed a plug so I just lift it & mix. Love the way it is out of the way but just at your finger tips

the heaviest part is the motor/blower assembly and guessing it is close to 60 - 70lbs but this is one fine machine. I have an entire woodshop including a planer and there are no problems with its performance.

It is not heavy at all. It is excellent and easy to use. I use it on cement and blacktop. I love it. I even bought one for my brother. He has all cement. I have recommended it to others. If mine ever broke I would buy another one.

It's not heavy at all. I don't know how much it weighs but perhaps you can call Amazon and perhaps they will have your answer. If you have any more questions please don't hesitate to get a hold of me through Amazon.But personally I hate the machine as I would much rather walk then use this device. Catherine

I don't know what it weighs - I haven't needed to weigh it. What I do believe is that Amazons freight cost (and the machine is heavy) were reasonable and their service was fantastic. My KitchenAid mixer arrived exactly on the date they said it would.

not heavy and you don't use alot. I love it any many of my co workers are using it too.

If you are going to be doing minor repairs , it probably will be overkill. If you are going to be working on older vehicles removing rusted brake caliper bolts and other hard to remove bolts etc, it may be justified. It doesn't seem to be to heavy, it can handle any job. A lot of techs would like to own it, I am in Dealerships on a regular basic.

It is a big machine, very heavy, but it is pretty easy to drive.I have not used it in snow yet so can't say how that would be.

I haven't weighed it but yes, it is pretty heavy. To me, it's not very mobile. I have mine sitting on a rolling cart that I push around the house rather than having to carry it. Heavy and awkward. But well built as others have stated.

It is not lightweight; but I can manage it all right. It does not move from where it is positioned when at work. Very sturdy; well made. I am guessing it weighs about 6-7 pounds; not sure. If you are looking for GOOD workmanship, then this is your machine. I have been thrilled with the results it produces from the first moment I used it.

You are talking about a hand mixer. I don't mix bread dough with it. I have never had a problem with power. I have had to replace the beaters a couple of times.
