“For whipping, puréeing, and a host of other food prep tasks, a reliable mixer is essential,” says Consumer Reports. “Just about any stand or hand mixer will do for simple chores. Hand mixers cost less but don’t do as well at heavy-duty tasks such as mixing dough. Stand mixers are more expensive and take up more space, but a good one can save you a lot of muscle power.”
Here is the Consumer Reports’ selection of recommended mixers. The maximum overall score is 100, and “Best Buy” models offer more value.
