Should You Buy a Kitchen Aid Hand Mixer? 

First of all, if you don't have a standing mixer and you don't use them very often, if you are hoping to save a few bucks, getting a Kitchen Aid hand mixer instead is a great way to go inexpensive. You can get the same quality at a lower price, you are just a little more limited with what you can do.

On the other hand, there are those of you who already have a stand mixer. Why should you get a hand mixer? Hand mixers are not just a cheaper version of stand mixers. They allow more portability and are easier for several situations. If you are mixing something quickly and in a rush, it's much easier and faster to just use a hand mixer because you don't need to go through getting out and getting ready your stand mixer.
