I have a KitchenAid 9 speed hand mixer with two wire beater attachments. What advantage does the Braun have over this for beating egg whites? (I think, although I'm not positive, that I can use the KitchenAid with just one beater attachment, if I...

I recently purchased this equipment after reading many reviews on Amazon most of which were positive. I used the chopper few times already but used the wire egg beater only once and have not used the hand held mixer yet. I love the chopper. It is small, portable and easy to use. The motor is powerful. It chops evenly due to its grooved design at the bottom part of the jar. It grinds into coarse or very fine paste. My 19 year old son loves to use it because of its portability, speed, and fast results. However, he did not think that the wire egg beater is very strong. The wires are not very strong but feel very fragile and does not beat fast to give desired results. However, we have other Indian style strong instruments to do the job so I do not mind. I bought this equipment especially for the hand held blender and the portable size chopper, which is an excellent purchase. I have used chopper grinder with various makes including Oster, Cuisinart, Proctor, Cuisinart Mini etc. but nothing can beat Braun. I am very happy with my purchase. I am glad they still make it compatible to use in USA.

Egg whites increase in volume about eight times. There are approximately eight egg whites in a cup. The 4 quart bowl on the mixer should be plenty large enough. The plastic bowl has not been a problem although it will take a bit longer than glass or stainless. You can buy a stainless steel bowl but they are pricey. If you want a mixer than can handle heavy dough then the Bosch is the way to go. If you never mix heavy dough then a 40 or 50 dollar mixer is all you need. The Bosch mixer has been far nicer than I ever imagined!

Mechanically, nothing. Appearance is the difference. With the white mixer you can see the labels, the lock knob, and the speed knob all are black. Whereas with the white on white, those things are all white.

I have an old 5qt mixer (the lift design like the 6qt) and that is what I got this sideswipe blade for.I have to tell you I do not like it as it is hard to get mix off.I never use it.If you want my opinion,don't get it as you will not be happy with it.

2 blades only no attachment but to be honest it seems to be enough. The Motor is extremely powerful and you will have no problem using it to puree baby food. I'd wish to have this one when my kids were babies. I use it for pancake or cake mix. It features a variable speed and a supra power option. It washes very quickly. The only downsize for me is that you have to hold the button while mixing which can be tiring.

The one thing that has stood out to me about this hand mixer was the slower speeds. It is still able to mix anything I have thrown at it, but at slower speeds then previous ones I have owned.

My Bosch mixer is wonderful on mixing cake batters, angelfood cakes, etc. The way the beaters work, it takes less time than other mixers, and the batter comes out more light and fluffy. I love, love love my Bosch, and am so glad I have it. I can also make two loaves of bread and have it ready to place in the pans, in less than ten minutes. You should really buy one, you will not be sorry V. Anderson

Egg whites and whipping cream do very well in large amounts, but if I'm doing only 2 or 3 or just a cup of cream, I use my Kitchen Aid. The smaller bowls are more efficient. I haven't tried using the blender for egg whites or cream, so can't speak to that issue.

I don't remember which model I bought it for, because it was a gift. I matched it up on the ad for the model my daughter has. Try looking up the mixer model number. Maybe you can find it on the Kitchenaide site.

No better or worse than any other mixer. It is the nature of the process. Have had a Kitchen Aid in the house for 30 years, great appliance. Accept the process, you have to break a few eggs when you bake a cake!

I don't have info on the motor, other than both use 60 Hz frequency and 120 volts. For those wondering about the need for attachments, I have the full set, but the immersion blender stick (with mainly the blender attachment, instead of the wire wisk) does get used the most. I will use the wire wisk attachment (for small batches of whipped cream, for low fat mayonaise and whipping egg whites) and the chopper attachment for small jobs. Yet, if you already have a small chopper that you use, then I don't see the need for this attachment. Also, if you don't make small batches of whipped cream or mayonaise or egg whites, then this may be a useless attachment for you.

I haven't personally done it, but I believe so. I used it when I was in a hurry once and made mashed/whipped potatoes. It was actually faster than using the regular beaters.

Hello, Thank you for your email. You can whip one egg white in the Poly Beater Bowl. Have a wonderful day! Michelle

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 have a Kitchen-Aid 2-beater hand mixer and it works beautifully. You just insert the whisk and turn it on. Amazon is great about returns if it doesn't work out.

I really do not know. I tossed the mixer because it is a piece of junk.I ended up buying a Cuisinart 9 speed that was more money but a outstanding mixer. More speeds that I need but a very reliable.

I am not a KitchenAid Rep, you would have to contact KitchenAid regarding your warranty. I can assure you, the New Metro Design Beater Blade is by far the best for mixing dough, frosting etc. I would recommend this product to anyone.
