The Breville Mixer

I currently use a Breville mixer.  Why?  Well, they gave it to me for free.  But, I seriously love it and would highly recommend it. Here are two of my favorite features of the mixer:

• It comes with a blade that scrapes down the side of the bowl as you mix.  This is fantastic and saves a ton of time.
• It has a built-in timer.  If the recipe calls for five minutes of mixing, I can set it and walk away.

Prior to my Breville, I used a Kitchen Aid mixer.  Two advantages of the Kitchen Aid mixer over the Breville mixer are:

1. It comes in fun colors that match any kitchen.
2. It has lots of attachment options - like an ice cream maker, pasta maker, and meat grinder.
