You get what you pay for

My trusty GE Stand mixer went out of commission and they no longer make it. I tried to cheap out by buying this but just taking out of the box I could tell it was cheaply made. The beater and whisk are made of a light metal. And, oddly enough, it faces the wrong direction. I make icing regularly and your the powdered sugar directly into the mixer from the bag and it was not easy for me to do with my left hand. The suction cups at the bottom are necessary because it is light and would vibrate off the counter otherwise. But they are highly annoying when trying to move the mixer on the counter. Got returned the next day and I coughed up the money for a KitchenAid, which I should have done in the first place.
