Not me, I use the stand mixer at least four times a week to make bread dough or pizza crust. It has a permanent spot on the counter so it's weight isn't an issue.

I am at the point I don't cook much anymore. Next road trip it might go to my stepdaughter.

Do I need to keep my electric hand mixer if I have a Kitchenaid and an immersion blender?
Plenty of posters on this thread have indicated their preferences. If you still find that you use both mixers and space isn't a pressing issue, keep them. For many people, though, the stand mixer is overkill, so if you're an infrequent user keeping the smaller one and saving a lot of space by eliminating the big one might be the way to go.

My Kitchenaid stand mixer stays on the counter and is not in the way at all. There's no way I would have one if I had to keep it under the counter somewhere. That's cray cray.

I received my stand mixer for xmas and just used it today.

(((((love)))))


Did some "baking" and it really helped.

Guess I'll keep them all until space is an issue.

My food processor broke today and I was so happy!!!! Had it for like 15 years and was so excited to buy a new one.

Noticed I have two immersion blenders.

Use the KA standmixer ( 5 qt) very often. Love it! Hand mixer is a Sunbeam from the early 70s. Used maybe once a year. Food processor gets used but is not that much of a problem to store.
