Best hand held electric mixers
7 Best Hand Mixers for 2023
We updated this story in December 2022 to ensure all picks tested and vetted by the Good Housekeeping Institute Kitchen Appliances & Innovation Lab were available, in stock and correctly priced.
If you love to bake but don’t have the space for a full stand mixer (or if you just don’t feel like pulling it out), a handheld electric mixer is just the thing for whipping up an easy baking recipe or your family’s favorite holiday dessert. A hand mixer is an important tool for home cooks and bakers because of its versatility: It’ll whip, blend and mix a variety of foods, including everything from mashed potatoes to buttercream frosting to egg whites. It can also make a great gift for a new baker looking to get into more serious recipes who might not want to splurge on a pricey stand mixer.
In the Good Housekeeping Institute Kitchen Appliances & Innovation Lab, we’ve tested 22 models of hand mixers over the years in the Lab and at home and run them through a range of tasks. While testing mixers, we assess their performance beating egg whites, whipping cream and mixing cookie dough, as well as how easy it is to use the mixers, change their attachments and clean them.

How we test hand mixers
During our most recent test in the Good Housekeeping Institute Kitchen Appliances & Innovation Lab, we assessed the variety of speeds, the ease of attaching the beaters, the comfort level when holding the hand mixer and how easy it was the use the controls and clean the mixer. We tested 22 hand mixers in the Lab and at home by mixing oatmeal cookie dough, beating yellow cake mix, kneading white bread dough and whipping egg whites and heavy cream.
We also consulted online reviews to see which hand mixers consumers love, in addition to which ones they have difficulty with. When making our picks, we also considered how intuitive each model was to use, as well as ergonomics and any useful features and included attachments.
What to look for when shopping for a hand mixer
✔️Comfort: Since you’ll be holding up the hand mixer for an extended period of time, a heavy mixer can tire your arm out quickly. Look for lighter mixers with a comfortable grip. We suggest shopping in person and lifting and holding the hand mixers on display, if possible.
✔️Accessories: All hand mixers come with detachable beaters, but only some models include other attachments, such as whisks or dough hooks. Although additional attachments do usually increase the price of the model, they give your hand mixer more uses.
✔️Cord vs. cordless: If you’re short on outlets in your kitchen, or if they’re in inconvenient locations, you may want to consider a cordless hand mixer. You do have to remember to charge them regularly, but they allow for ease of use by both right- and left-handed people. If you’d rather not leave your hand mixer on a charger, you can look for a model with a swivel cord so it stays out of the way.
✔️Storage: Extra accessories are nice to have, but they can get lost in drawers easily. Then, before you know it, you only have one beater hanging around. Look for models with storage options, like a bag, to keep all of the pieces together. If you’re looking to save space, some models have snap-on storage cases to house the accessories with the mixer so they’re all in the same place when you need them.

Best hand mixer 2023: tested by our experts
(Image credit: KitchenAid)
Love to cook? You deserve the very best hand mixer. An essential for baking and more – you can make the best mashed potatoes with a hand mixer – the wisest buys are lightweight and easy to use, but powerful enough to get the job done fast.
Keen bakers often opt for a hand mixer when they can't justify the expense or countertop for a full-size stand mixer, but we love the flexibility cordless designs give us in the kitchen.
Our Ecommerce staffer Molly Cleary put each of these hand mixers through a rigorous testing process in our testing kitchen (more on that lower down the page) to discover which will suit your culinary needs best. In doing so, not only was she able to ensure each hand mixer was meticulously tested, but she was also able to compare like-for-like to bring you honest results.

Only one attachment type
Why you should buy it: Good looks, great functionality; outstanding power for a cordless.
The KitchenAid Cordless Hand mixer is our top choice thanks to the fact it combines aesthetics and functionality absolutely perfectly. It has the polished retro look that the brand is famous for, the convenience of being cordless, and the performance that you need to get your smaller baking tasks done efficiently. 'The cordless element makes things even more aesthetically pleasing,' says our tester Molly. 'But don't fall into the trap if you know you're horrendous at charging things, as this mixer needs more attention than usual.'
Why we love it
It's just great quality, our tester Molly reports. It has two sturdy beaters which sit somewhere between traditional balloon whisk and beater shapes, meaning they're good substitutes for both. That saves on storage space and meant it aced cookie dough and cake batter, despite the lack of added attachments.
Features
With seven speeds to choose from, you can fold as well as a whisk, so whether you want to keep your mix dense or fill it with as much air as possible, there is a speed setting for you. We're fans of the blue velvet color, but there are seven to choose from. And as you'll know if you've read our KitchenAid Artisan review, you can get it in Empire Red or stay classic with a matte black or clean white.

With just one look, we think you'll find it easy to agree that this Smeg hand mixer is the essential choice for those looking to spruce up their kitchen with their purchase. Available in a series of glorious bright and pastel colors, this mixer marries together style and speed, with nine options for various baking tasks.
'In terms of performance, I was doubly impressed with how powerful and user-friendly this mixer was. It takes mere minutes to do what you need it to when it comes to batter,' says our tester Molly. 'The price tag of this mixer might put some customers off, but if you love the aesthetics on offer here, then you'll be glad to hear the performance matches up.'
Why we love it
It has a full range of attachments, with two dough hooks, beaters, and whisks, and each of these performed excellently in our tests. Another standout feature of excellence with this mixer is the seamless digital control panel, which also features a very handy timer. The finishing touches are all there with this mixer, from the included embroidered dust case to the iconic Smeg lettering on the exterior, and there's no doubt that this is the prettiest mixer you could opt for.
Features
As we found in our Smeg 1950s Stand Mixer review, the nostalgic design here is a crucial feature. Looks aside, we loved the user-friendly display, easy controls, nine speeds to use, and non-slip feet to help the mixer stay in place on our countertop.

This Dualit mixer is a standout choice thanks to its practical design, genuinely useful features, and the fact it performed adeptly in our tests. Perfect for occasions where you don't need the capacity or power of a stand mixer, this pick will let you get the job done without prior fuss. 'This Dualit mixer is high-quality, with a focus on pragmatism and straightforwardness,' reports our tester Molly.
Why we love it
The main reason this Dualit mixer is such a success is its focus on practicality. There is a year-long guarantee available if you purchase it straight from Dualit, and the parts of this mixer are replaceable, meaning you can carry it with you for many years of your life. This emphasis on quality that lasts is excellent in terms of value and sustainability.

Less aesthetically pleasing than rival mixers
Why you should buy it: Ergonomic design a triumph in performance stakes; aced all of our tests.
Why we love it
The MultiMix is very powerful, with a 350-watt motor that matches some of the most popular food mixers on the market. This was very much so reflected in our tests, with this mixer breezing through all of our mixtures, regardless of the density. It also has a design that promotes easy cleaning, with a sealed body that won't let any mixture seep inside. 'I loved this hand mixer performance-wise as much as the KitchenAid; the only reason it's further down the list is the KitchenAid's looks are so much more alluring,' says Molly, our on-staff tester. 'That said, this is much more affordable.'
Features
There are two dough hooks included with this mixer too, which are excellent for mixing pastries or bread doughs. The controls are also cutting edge, using a dial turn system that you can operate with one hand, whilst you use the other to steady your mixture. Whilst it might not be the most aesthetically pleasing mixer in the world, it contends with the best when it comes to a stellar mixing performance.

An expensive option
Why you should buy it: Nine speed settings; great power; good looks.
If you want the best corded hand mixer and have a larger budget, the KitchenAid KHM926CU 9-Speed Hand Mixer is our top pick. With a cord to help pack in that extra power, and with a stunning design, we think this mixer is very much worth the splurge. Our tester Molly was very clear that this model is just as good as our top pick, also a KitchenAid: 'You get more for your money with the additional attachments, and the controls are a little smoother to use. ' Why is it further down the list? We simply find cordless hand mixers more practical to use.
Why we love it
Why? Well, for a start there are nine speed settings. These use a slow start (to prevent spills and messes) and range from speed one, which is great for folding, to speed nine, which is perfect for meringues.
Features
Speed is adjusted using the buttons at the top of the mixer, and is clearly displayed on an LED screen. There's also a beater ejector button that keeps fingers from getting messy when you're done, and a lockable swivel cord that keeps it from getting in the way when cooking.

Why you should buy it: Affordable; managed our tests well; cordless.
We like the Cuisinart RHM-100 EvolutionX 5-Speed Cordless Hand Mixer with its five speeds, stand-up display, and impressive runtime.
Why we love it
There are so many reasons to go cordless when hunting for a new hand mixer. It gives you the option of making swiss meringue without worrying about finding a place nearby to plug in, and if you have a kitchen island it can sit on the counters without all the clutter of a cord.
'Though it performed well in all of our tests, it didn't quite feel like it had the push behind it that some of the contending mixers did,' says staff tester Molly. 'However, with an RRP of $79.95, it will remain in my favorite kitchen tools line-up for a long time yet.'
Features
We noted that you cannot use this hand mixer while it's charging, so be sure to charge it ahead of time if you plan on using it.

On the heavy side
Why you should buy it: Great mixing power; heated technology; seven speeds.
The Oster HeatSoft Hand Mixer has one of the smarter designs in our lineup of the best hand mixers thanks to its heated technology. Gone are the days of waiting for your butter to reach room temperature with this baking gadget, which also has great mixing power.
Why we love it
Recognizing an issue that home bakers come across far too often, this mixer warms butter as you mix it to bring it to the right temperature for incorporation by blowing warm air into the bowl as you mix. The result? Fluffier cakes and cookies, without the hassle.
'It performed well in all of our tests, and has a solid range of speeds and the best pick of attachments from all of the hand mixers we tested,' reports our tester Molly.
Features
It has seven speeds and a burst of power button, as well as a button to activate and disable the heated features.

How we test and review the best hand mixers
(Image credit: Future/Molly Cleary)
At Homes & Gardens, we know that how we test products is crucial to whether you can trust our evaluations and our rankings. That's why Molly extensively tested the hand mixers within this round-up side by side in order to truly evaluate which model was the top performer, as you can see from our photos.
Molly tested each of the hand mixers in this guide simultaneously at the Future testing facility in Reading, England, in order to gauge which models are worth spending your money on. There were various elements to the testing process including three different tasks to evaluate the power of each mixer, and additional time is given to testing out various additional attachments that came with each mixer. A series of tests were devised in order to establish their abilities, from whipping up cream to mixing cake batter. The tests were made as quantifiable as possible, with recordings of time taken to adequately mix as well as decibel readings. In each of the reviews linked here, you'll see the testing process behind the stars awarded to these mixers.
Below you'll find more information on Molly, who tested these mixers, and why she has the expertise to tell you which model to buy.
Ecommerce WriterMolly is an Ecommerce staffer for Homes & Gardens, and spends her time testing out the premium appliances you need for your home. She is a long-time baker and set out to test every single one of the hand mixers within this guide in order to tell you exactly what you need to know as you purchase one. Though the best performer was the KitchenAid Cordless Hand Mixer, Molly's personal favorite has to be the Smeg 1950s Retro Style Mixer thanks to its unbeatable look, especially in the pale blue shade.
What is the best hand mixer?
(Image credit: Future/Molly Cleary)
Our top pick of the best hand mixers goes to the KitchenAid Cordless Hand Mixer . It's designed to incorporate all your ingredients and adjusts its power by detecting the attachments you use automatically.
There's also high praise for the Cuisinart RHM-100 EvolutionX 5-Speed Cordless Hand Mixer if you're looking for a top cordless option to allow free movement around the home as you bake. The range also features one of the best immersion blenders we tested, which is also cordless.

Our top pick of the best cordless hand mixers is the KitchenAid Cordless Hand Mixer . It aced all our tests and also adjusts its power by detecting the attachments you use automatically.
Features to consider when choosing a hand mixer
(Image credit: Future/Molly Cleary)
Speeds
Hand mixers offer anywhere from 5 to 9 preset speeds. Lower speeds are ideal for integrating ingredients without overworking a batter, and a higher speed can beat egg whites or heavy cream to stiff peaks.
Every hand mixer in our guide has a speed setting for any task you may wish to use it for, but it's no surprise that the more premium options offer more speeds. These will give you more flexibility in the kitchen and offer a wider range of functions for keen home chefs.
Storage
Many of the best hand mixers come with cases that contain the machine itself as well as all of its attachments in one easy and convenient space. This makes storage simple and prevents clutter when not in use.
Weight
None of the best hand mixers are very heavy, but if you plan on using it for prolonged periods of time it's worth making sure it won't become cumbersome.
Attachments
Every hand mixer will come with beaters as standard, but some offer extras including dough hooks, balloon whisks, and even spatulas for increased functionality.
Considering buying a stand mixer instead? We compared the hand mixer vs stand mixer to see which made a better batch of brownies.
Can a hand mixer replace a stand mixer?
To understand whether one of the best hand mixers can replace one of the best stand mixers in your kitchen, you need to know what each is capable of and which is most suited to your cooking needs.
Hand mixers – light and small, as we have seen – can be used to whip, beat and mix small batches and, if cordless, can be really practical for the occasional baker or anyone with little room for a traditional stand mixer.
Stand mixers are bigger, so can take on bigger batches and, because they have more speed and power and are hands-free, are much more suited to regular bakers who cook for a crowd or freezing ahead. Most stand mixers have more attachments than most hand mixers, so always interrogate what you are getting for your money when comparing.
The final difference? Price: hand mixers are much cheaper, generally, than stand mixers. So, can you replace one with the other? You can buy a hand mixer instead of a stand mixer if you don't cook too much, too often.

How to choose a hand mixer and what to look for?
The main selection criteria are as follows:
- Equipment and accessories . All hand mixers are equipped with whipping attachments and a central stand for attaching beaters. In addition, current 2022-2023 models contain double and single whisks that are suitable for whipping egg whites or puree.
- Power . The more powerful the hand mixer, the less effort you need to make to whip the products. That is, you need to accurately determine the scope of the device. The average power of hand mixers is considered to be the range of 200-350 watts. Devices with less power are impractical and are practically not found on sale.
- Body material . Most hand mixers for the kitchen are made of durable plastic. When choosing, pay attention to the quality of the coating and impact resistance. High-quality case material will be resistant to scratches and mechanical damage. It should not leave fingerprints or water stains. nine0012
- Speed and control . The standard range of speed of rotation of the working elements is considered to be from 5 to 10. It should be borne in mind that a high speed combines the ability to control the intensity of mixing the product, while for a small one this possibility is limited. Control is usually represented by indicator lights, buttons, quick modes or digital gears.
- Weight and comfort . Hand mixers are designed specifically with lightweight motors and gears. Such devices always have a convenient design for manual grip. Some models can be stable on a flat surface. Other modern mixers are equipped with curved, curved handles, pads, and more. nine0012
- Storage space . Manufacturers provide for the possibility of careful storage. Since the device is compact, this does not create problems. Bags, ergonomic cases with hard walls or snap-on bases are popular.
- Colors and Warranty . Standard colors of hand mixers are black, white, grey. But, sometimes there are multi-colored models on sale, bright, dark or other trendy options. The warranty period for hand mixers is approximately 1 year for all devices. nine0012
