Customer Reviews

It was two weeks before Christmas and all through the house there was a horrible wailing. From our old stand mixer there arose such a clatter that we surely knew what was the matter.... Looking around for a replacement, we really didn't want to spend a lot on a mixer just before Christmas. The Westinghouse SA61950 has almost no on-line reviews yet, but it looked good and seemed like it might be up to our use which includes making bread at least weekly.
So far so good, plenty of power to finish up kneading the bread without hand work. The bread hook is a great design and easy to get on and off. The mixer has what they call "Planetary mixing action" which means that the beater moves around in the bowl to get to all sides. This a good thing, I can't imagine why anyone would make a stand mixer and not have either the mixer head or the bowl move.
The box does have a big disclaimer "for home use only" so it does suggest that they at least don't want to warranty the mixer for heavy use. So we will see over time how this lasts. But for now it is a great stand mixer at great price. I do a food blog [...] so this mixer will get a good workout, hopefully for many years to come.

This review is going to fly in the face of everyone who said in their reviews, "I wanted a Kitchenaid" or "It's not a Kitchenaid"... One thing is for certain, it's not a $300 Kitchenaid.
Here's what I have discovered so far. I just received this and used it already and will modify this review later if I see it necessary.
1. It's beautiful. It doesn't take up a full acre of counter space. I plan to keep mine on the counter as soon as I whip up a cover for it.
2. It's heavy! The sheer weight of it tells me that this machine is not messing around!
3. SUCTION CUPS! That's right, I said suction cups. There are four suction cups on the bottom that suck right onto the counter. Because of that, there's not even a hint of a wiggle when it's working.
4. It's sounds great! It's not whisper soft, no... but it doesn't sound like a helicopter taking off in my kitchen, either. It has that "I'm not a pansy piece of crap" appliance sound. It means business. It's a smooth hum... I don't want you all thinking it's going to break windows. When you've had appliances break like I have, you get an ear for that dreaded "I'm about to fry out" sound.
5. The instructions don't take a 4 year degree in communications to understand. Very straight forward, very easy to understand, and there are pictures. I haven't watched the DVD yet, and I know I should, but I couldn't wait to get this baby out of the box and use it.
6. All removable parts are extremely easy to install/uninstall. There's no fuss, no muss, and no tools. You hear a nice, clear, definitive "click" when you press the release button to lift the beater. You know it's up, and it's going to stay up until you press the button again and move it down. This comes with a whisk, flat and dough hook attachment, that fit easily and securely. Do not worry about the attachments coming off during mixing. It's simply not going to happen.
7. After using, when you turn it to zero, it takes a moment to turn completely off. Oddly enough, I like that. It winds down instead of coming to an abrupt stop. I would think that's easier on the motor.
8. When the bowl is in place, it's very secure. It isn't going to move until you move it. Same with the splash guard and the flour feeder.
Now, for my review on the shipping...
Amazon, you guys are the greatest! I received my item the exact day promised. The packaging as well as the product box itself were in pristine condition. All items were in the box as described, although it took me a moment to find the splash guard. Folks, look really hard at all the styrofoam pieces. Since it's a clear splash guard, I had trouble seeing it. But it will be there, trust me.
And for all those Kitchenaid people, remember what Betty Furness said back in the 50s..."You can be SURE if it's Westinghouse!" I have yet to ever have a bad Westinghouse product!
