    I've had my eye on this product lately, mainly due to all the good reviews it has in addition to it's relatively low price.

    It's just under $80, vs. the KitchenAid mixers which are in the $300 range. I also like the more compact design of it. Do any of you on here have one of these? If so, I would be curious to hear your thoughts on it.

    I am mainly looking for something to make pizza and bread dough with from time to time, I really don't make very many cookies or cakes or other sweets. I'm fine with the fact that it's got a plastic body, all that metal on the KitchenAid seem kind of unnecessary and it likely just drives up the cost. Plus, from what I've heard, if it breaks you need to send it back at your expense which can be quite costly given the weight of those. The Hamilton Beach model here doesn't look as heavy, but I also noticed it has suction cups to help keep it from moving around your counter.
