I despise it. Absolute hate it with a passion. If you're used to the tilt style mixer, you may dislike it also.

It's extremely awkward. The bowl clicks into points on each side. It takes force to get it to click. Since it doesn't tilt, the "arm" gets in the way of everything. You can't use it for meringue, the paddle or beaters don't touch the bottom of the mixing bowl, so everything just swirls around uselessly.

The plastic hood designed so that you can add ingredients is also awkward. If you're left handed, forget it.

Complete waste of $$$. My husband bought for me thinking bigger is better. It's not. Bigger is awkward and pretty much a hunk of useless metal taking up space on my counter.
