Hamilton Beach 63395 Red
Score: 66/100Rankings
The Cuisinart SM-50BC delivers a powerful 500 W motor and 12 speeds within a sturdy die-cast frame, making it capable of handling heavy doughs. Its weight and lack of built-in accessory storage are drawbacks for users needing easy mobility and organization. Suited for home bakers who prioritize performance over ultra-lightweight design.
The Hamilton Beach 63395 is a compact, budget-friendly stand mixer with a 300-W motor and a 4-quart stainless-steel bowl, offering planetary mixing and seven speeds. Its lower power and smaller capacity limit heavy-duty or large-batch baking. Best suited for beginner or casual home bakers with limited counter space.

Professional reviewers and editors note that the Cuisinart mixer delivers a rare combination of high motor power, precise speed control, and a sturdy die-cast build, making it capable of handling heavy doughs and a range of tasks, though the lack of in-depth third-party testing leaves some performance claims unverified.
Everyday users consistently highlight the mixer’s strong motor, ease of cleaning, and useful splash guard, while occasional comments point to its weight and the absence of integrated attachment storage as minor drawbacks.
