Cuisinart HSM-70 Review

Stand Mixer  8/10

By

Cuisinart HSM-70 ReviewA special feature of this Cuisinart mixer is that it combines the stand and the handheld versions together for a versatile appliance. The head easily tips back so you can change the accessories or remove the bowl. In its stand form, the mixer does a good job of mixing together the ingredients, but I found it was especially helpful to detach the mixer and hit any spots that were missed. All the parts are dishwasher-safe, and the beaters don’t get clogged because they lack a central post. The simple, compact design makes this a nice addition to the kitchen, small enough to fit on the counter or tucked in a pantry. For $69.95, this Cuisinart mixer offers a lot of value. .
