not great
It mixes cake ingredients ok, but is not very powerful. I find the beaters very hard to extract. The most annoying thing is that the mixer won't stand on it's base when the beaters are in . I've never had a hand mixer before that wouldn't do that.
Too fast!

I bought this mixer several months ago to replace a trusty but rather geriatric Phillips one from many years back. I was prepared - and hoped - to find my new mixer to be faster and more powerful but not to find that even at its lowest speed it sends any food that isn't already liquid spinning off and as another reviewer has said, sending splats of food everywhere. I've also struggled to see very much difference between it's slowest and fastest speeds, so don't see the point of it having six! Having recently bought another hand mixer, made by a different company and within general the same price range, I can finally relax and enjoy my baking again, as this mixer genuinely has speeds that begin quite slow and gentle, and move to very fast and powerful. I'm afraid I can't recommend the Russell Hobbs mixer at all and feel reluctant even to donate it to a charity shop! A further detail that has been missed is that when you try to put the mixer down while you, for example, scrape the mix down into the bowl, it won't stand up so you have to lean it on the whisks. What a silly detail to get wrong! Sorry, Russell Hobbs.
Great mixer

I've only recently started to get into baking and this has been a wonderful addition to help me take my baking to the next level. Great quality, easy to use and to clean up afterwards! Would certainly recommend

This hand blender is better quality than the one I had previously which only had three speed settings, this one has six speed settings. However, I don't think it's the best you can get, as most of the six speeds are quite similar to eachother in speed. And the first, slowest setting is much too fast, n my opinion for setting number 1. I still do prefer it to my previous model and it is a good quality and very sturdy item, I also find the beaters very easy to clean in comparison as they're wider, which is a bonus. I just feel the speeds let it down a little..

This nippy little hand mixer by Russell Hobbs is brilliant! Love using it for mixes and soups for the winter. Up to 3 years guarantee choice of 6 speeds which caused quite a mess but hey ho I have to find out which spees works best. 125W. Heavy duty chrome-plated beaters, Easy release button, amazing item
Good quality at a decent price.
A RUSSELL HOBBS Customer
A great hand mixer at a decent price. Quality build also. I've brought a few of these from other brands that were just awful. With this one you can tell the speed differences and it's going to last a long time too. Our Victoria sponges do feel lighter

This whisker does the job. Perfect for mixing cake mixture like you did as a kid and these things haven't changed much over that time. Speed settings as essential. Perfect bit of kit of you can't justify a fixed mixing machine.
Love this

This Russell Hobbs - Food Prep - Food Collection Hand Mixer is amazing. So easy to use, wash and store away. I love baking and bake all the time. This just makes it so much more easier for me to use without any hassle.
Great whisker
A RUSSELL HOBBS Customer
This mixer is lightweight and compact enough for easy storage . It is great for eggs and a heat baking companion. The speed is just perfect and fast enough to whip up a good meringue. The attachments are easy to clean and ready for the next mixing. Easy grip handles makes it all easy to use.
