With practice children can safely whip cream, beat eggs, and mix light batter using this standard-sized classic egg beater.
The gears are enclosed in the handle, safely away from little fingers. The mixer can be rested on the bottom of the bowl, so the child's arms don't get tired.
The non-slip grip and handle are easy for a right- or left-handed child to hold and turn, and the motion is easy and smooth.
The two stainless steel beaters remove for easy cleaning. 12" high overall; handle 1½" dia. Ages 4+.
Please note: This item is not child-size, however, the shape of the handle it is easier for children to use than other hand mixers.
Your satisfaction is guaranteed.
You may return any item, for any reason, and receive an exchange, replacement or refund.
I actually collect hand mixers. I have several over 100 years old. I was gifted this one and love it! OXO products are great and this one is too. It cranks smoothly and easily. It's fun to use and easy to clean. Perfect when you just have the little job when you don't want to drag out the stand mixer or the cord mixer. Kids like it too.
My kids have lovingly named this the “super mixer” and now want to help me make recipes. It’s such a great kitchen tool for fun and also very functional! I also used it for non-kid involved recipes and it’s great.
I bought this hand mixer for both my daughter-in-law and my four year old grandson who loves to bake with his mom! She had given her electric hand mixer to her mom and told me she wanted a hand- cranked mixer. When I saw this mixer I knew it was the perfect gift for the two of them to share their baking time together. This mixer is made by a well known kitchen gadget company and is not a flimsy toy!
We bought this for our 3 year old that loves to do the stirring when we cook. Normally she makes a mess when stirring as she splatters the batters etc all over the place. This hand mixer is easy for her to use and keeps her from splattering the food everywhere. She also loves that the beaters are able to be removed for her to lick.
Not sure if I missed this in the description, but this mixer is not really suited to small hands. I purchased this as part of a group of kitchen supplies for my budding chef (almost 3). I expected this to be similar in size and utility to the spatula and mixing bowl I purchased. It is not. It's a very good mixer, but not for children's work unless they are older -- 8+ I'd say. We will still use it in our house, but the intended recipient will need help.
Purchased this for my almost-5 year old daughter for Christmas. She loves to help in the kitchen, but needs tools that don't overwhelm her. She LOVES this mixer. She mixed up fluffy eggs for omelets yesterday and had so much fun that her 10 year old brother asked to borrow the mixer to make his own! Cleanup is also very easy. The beater head part detaches from the base with the handle. We hand washed this piece and it was quite easy to clean up.
I gave this to my granddaughter for her birthday and she has helped her mother make several things. She is 3 years old and her mother says she does well with it . The protective case is marvelous. Her mother said she has even used it herself with great results.
