My hand mixer burned up today (and of course, I'm making the desserts for the Thanksgiving get together) - what brand do you all recommend? (this was a cheap Toastmaster, not used very often but at the time I was really watching my pennies).

I bought two $45 Cuisinart hand mixers within 2 years, both were duds. So I bought a Black and Decker hand mixer at Target for $21 and it's fantastic, and has it's own carry case. Winner.

Thanks QuilterChick - 2 of my FB friends from H.S. also recommended B&D - it's the winner so far!

Huh... I was going to recommend Cuisinart.
Mine is seven years old and going strong!

I have to wonder though if brands that "used to be good" are now manufactured in China? - How many of us remember when things used to last for yrs. and yrs. - seems like all/most are now made to be temporary. I'm still researching, I don't personally want to waste money and add to the landfill on something that will quit working in a short period of time.
