I use it all the time. They last forever, too, so I think they've worth the investment even for fairly casual use. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer/page/2#post-363959 Sat, 27 Oct 2012 12:12:05 +0000 pinkcupcake 363959@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>no, but i want a kitchen aid mixer soooo bad! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer/page/2#post-363948 Sat, 27 Oct 2012 11:56:38 +0000 shopaholic 363948@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dagret - He CUT your shower curtain? wth? </p> <p>I also have a hand mixer that I got from Target for cheap. Under $20 and it comes with a case to hold it's attachments. I highly recommend it if you want a replacement or someone wants a space-saver!<br /> <a href="http://www.target.com/p/hamilton-beach-hand-mixer-62695v/-/A-694192#prodSlot=dlp_medium_1_5&#038;term=hand%20mixer" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/p/hamilton-beach-hand-mixer-62695v/-/A-694192#prodSlot=dlp_medium_1_5&#038;term=hand%20mixer</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer/page/2#post-363942 Sat, 27 Oct 2012 11:49:53 +0000 singingbee 363942@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never thought to use it to shred chicken before, though!!! Great idea!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer/page/2#post-363914 Sat, 27 Oct 2012 11:12:33 +0000 mrsjyw 363914@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>nope, i'm not a huge baker so the handheld one i already had works well for me.</p> <p>i haven't even touched my food processor from wedding shower... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer/page/2#post-363709 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 22:17:15 +0000 KT326 363709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got one as a wedding gift from my BFF. It's Martha Stewart blue and I love it! I don't use it as often now that I have DS but I will definitely use it for the holidays. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer/page/2#post-363690 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 21:52:31 +0000 singingbee 363690@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a kitchen aid and I use at least once a week.

I do have a hand mixer, but it's just not the same as having something with a good dough hook... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer/page/2#post-363658 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 21:19:16 +0000 Grace 363658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lovejoy: You used a mixer for tomato soup? I'm confused - was it to take out lumps or to mix up whole tomatoes? If it was, you should try an immersion blender. Most beloved appliance I've got. </p> <p>@Ash: That is freakin' BRILLIANT!! I would never have thought to shred chicken like that!</p> <p>I have a beautiful bluey-purple Kitchen Aid stand mixer. It was the number 1 most important thing to get off my wedding registry. It is indispensable for Christmas baking alone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer/page/2#post-363078 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 13:39:10 +0000 sunny 363078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>KitchenAid is having a sale on refurbs right now. 30% off the listed price with coupon PGA30:</p> <p><a href="http://www.shopkitchenaid.com/more-ways-to-shop-1/outlet-2/factory-refurbished-3/-RRK150ER-400154/RRK150ER/" rel="nofollow">http://www.shopkitchenaid.com/more-ways-to-shop-1/outlet-2/factory-refurbished-3/-RRK150ER-400154/RRK150ER/</a></p> <p>I bought one a few weeks ago when Kohls was having a great sale.

I'm going to do this for sure when I need to shred chicken next! Thanks for passing on the knowledge! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer/page/2#post-362474 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 08:56:08 +0000 Ash 362474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: I've heard the paddle attachment works well too. :) I haven't tried it - Just the bread hook! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer/page/2#post-362467 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 08:53:27 +0000 loveisstrange 362467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>YES! I love my kitchenaid!\</p> <p>@MrsBrewer: You use the paddle attachment! You just thrown the chicken in and it will shred it beautifully. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer#post-362465 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 08:52:11 +0000 Ash 362465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsBrewer: I use the bread hook and toss the chicken into the bowl... I use a medium speed and just let it do it's thing. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer#post-362446 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 08:46:31 +0000 MrsBrewer 362446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ash: How do you shred chicken with it?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer#post-362442 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 08:43:38 +0000 Ash 362442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a kitchenaid stand mixer and it is seriously my favorite thing in the kitchen (tied with my chopper!). I use it to mix meatloaf, make desserts, shred chicken and now with our newest attachment... make ice cream!! Yummmmm! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer#post-362439 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 08:42:52 +0000 MrsBrewer 362439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I have a red stand mixer, and a white KitchenAide hand mixer also. I loooove baking so it gets used pretty frequently. I bought it myself a couple years ago. It's really fun come Christmas time, and my SIL, MIL and I bake cookies, we normally have all 3 of our mixers going at one time!! :-) I'm suprised we don't blow a fuse! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer#post-362434 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 08:41:09 +0000 Mrs. Blue 362434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My Kitchen Aid is one of the most used items and definitely the most loved item. I love baking, and a hand mixer isn't tough enough for some dough, so I think it's essential. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer#post-362429 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 08:37:39 +0000 Mrsbells 362429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we dont have one but when I want to bake, or make waffles then I wish I did and i have to whisk everything manually. I may buy a hand held one </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer#post-362415 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 08:29:47 +0000 PurplePumps 362415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, I have no use for it. Maybe if I picked up baking, which is unlikely. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer#post-362412 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 08:27:32 +0000 MediaNaranja 362412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, but I want one so badly. I do bake quite often, and I have a small hand mixer that works fine most of the time, but I still want a nice pretty one, ha. We don't have the space to keep it out all the time now, but in my fantasy world I have an awesome kitchen where the pretty kitchenaid can sit out all the time and when people come over they will ooh and aah about how gorgeous it looks. This will totally happen someday, right? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer#post-362376 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 08:07:31 +0000 dagret 362376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: Grgh I know..How's this for random: DH's dad's friend owns a food truck and DH took OUR hand mixer to his parent's house so they could test donut recipes. And now it's gone. Along with my nice microplane zester. (Don't even get me started on the time DH cut my fabric shower curtain...instead of raising the bar.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer#post-362330 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 07:37:33 +0000 T.H.O.U. 362330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a kitchen aid. Maybe I will break it out this weekend. Homemade bread sounds great this weekend! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer#post-362320 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 07:26:56 +0000 SugarplumsMom 362320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I kinda want one, but I don't bake. DH does, but he only bakes occasionally. Plus, we have zero counter space for one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer#post-362316 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 07:24:34 +0000 Mrs. Lovejoy 362316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just a handheld! We tried using it one time to make tomato soup though, and it was a disaster. We still have tomato spots all over our kitchen walls. Those are the times that I long for a stand mixer! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer#post-362313 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 07:20:40 +0000 heffalump 362313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I could not live without my mixer. I wish I had a hand mixer too though..... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-own-a-mixer#post-362309 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 07:14:50 +0000 mrs. bird 362309@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@dagret: why would he take your hand mixer somewhere? That's so random! I hope he replaces it with an upgraded one! Boys! </p>
