Mix Up Memories

Discover new ways to make precious family memories for your loved ones by carrying on the tradition of special baking moments and joyous celebrations.

Bake Memories With Oster Mixers

Oster helps you prepare treasured family recipes for all to enjoy. Nothing shows fondness and devotion to sweet moments more than delicious treats baked with love and care.

Chrome Beaters and Balloon Whisk

The ruggedly built hand mixer comes with durable chrome beaters and a balloon whisk. Use the beaters to combine liquid and dry ingredients, beat eggs, cream butter and sugar, to prepare frosting, and more. The beaters promise quick and thorough results.

Switch the beaters out for the balloon whisk when it's time to make fluffy egg whites, hollandaise sauce, whipped cream, or anytime you need to beat air into mixtures. The beaters and the whisk attachments up the fun factor of the hard-working hand mixer, and they clean up easily by hand or in the dishwasher when it's time to call it a day.

6 Speeds, Plus Burst of Power

Equipped with a 250-watt (2.1 amp) motor, the reliable handheld mixer takes on a wide range of mixing tasks with blissful ease. Choose from six variable speed settings; a prominent lever on the mixer's handle makes it easy to change the setting anywhere from speed 1 to speed 6 with a simple press of the thumb.

For added convenience, the mixer's Clean Start function on low speed starts the hand mixer off slow, which helps prevent flour puff and unnecessary splatters. There's also a 'Turbo' Burst of Power button when needing a powerful surge of strength--great for getting through those heavier mixtures and dough. A flat heel rest allows the mixer to sit upright on the counter, and when it's time to remove the beaters, the speed lever doubles as a handy beater-eject button.

Retractable Cord

Uniquely designed, the hand mixer provides the added benefit of a retractable cord. Simply pull the power cord out to use, then, when finished, push the button to automatically rewind the cord up into the mixer and out of sight. The retractable power cord means neat and tidy, compact storage when not in use--and hassle-free removal from the cupboard, too--no unruly cord getting tangled up in other appliances or caught on cookie sheets and cooling racks.

Great Mixer - Terrible Blades

Great Mixer - Terrible Blades
**Updated review - I purchased this in 2014 and it is now 2017. I've use this mixer less than a dozen times over the course of each year I've owned it. The functionality of the unit itself is great - I love it. However the blades have just started chipping away. The metallic coating began peeling off and getting into my food! I went looking for replacement blades, but they are not on Amazon. I found them on Oster's website for $9.99 each plus the cost of shipping. They currently have 1.5 stars due to many customers complaining about rusting which mine would probably experience too if I kept using them with the coating chipped off. I love this machine, but do not expect to need to invest $25 on blades in the first 4 years of ownership. So, long story short, I just bought myself a Kitchen Aid mixer as a replacement. The reviews are better and I expect a higher level of quality, so I'll take a chance on them.I've had this hand mixer now for several months and it's been great. As others have mentioned, the weight of the unit distinguishes it from other mixers. It is a little on the heavy side but I don't think it's anything a grown adult can't handle. I've had light weight units in the past and they also happened to be cheap models that died on me, overheated, or struggled to keep up their speed in thick batters. This unit is strong, and hasn't let me down.The retractable cord has never really retracted all of the way. I'm always left with about 5 inches sticking out. I don't know if it has to do with the red and green tape indicators that are on the cord, because I haven't taken them off to see if that would make a difference. Another poster said their removal allows the cord to retract all of the way. I'm not too bothered either way. "Mostly" retractable is better than dealing with twist-ties.
