The competing manufacturers are trying to improve this device, equipping it with new additional nozzles and various new functions. After analyzing customer reviews and expert opinion, I am ready to present my rating of the best hand mixers in year.

Lumme LU-1815

The mixer is convenient and easy to use, it has an ergonomic design of the body made of high quality plastic. Unlike Marta, this model has 7 speed modes: you can choose the optimal speed of rotation of the attachments for any product. In terms of power, Lumme is inferior to Marta - only 250 watts.

The model has 7 speed modes, like the Lumme LU-1815, but inferior in power to the Scarlett - only 200 watts. Included - a whisk, hooks for kneading dough, which was not in the Lumme model.

Polaris PHM 7016
The handy Polaris PHM 7016 handheld mixer has 700 watts of power - higher than the Scarlett SC-HM40S03 and Lumme LU-1815. 5 speed modes, including special (Turbo).

Benefits:

Disadvantages:
- does not match the declared capacity;

In terms of quality and power, this model clearly outperforms the listed competitors.

This figure is clearly overestimated by the manufacturer. Price - ... On the Yandex. On the market, this product is recommended by 89% of buyers.
Bosch MFQ 3010
The mixer of the German company Bosch with a power of 300 watts continues to review - this is 2 times less than what is stated in the Polaris PHM 7016, but Bosch does its job no worse.

Disadvantages:
- only 2 speeds;
- plastic inserts on the nozzles;
- need power adjustment. At minimum speed sprays everything around.
The German company launched a very high-quality, powerful mixer on the market. I believe that 2 levels of power are too little, but even for them, power adjustment is needed: at low revs, drops very often fly out, splatter everything around. Price - ... On the Yandex. 96% of buyers recommend this product.
Philips HR3705 / 00 Daily Collection
The next rating model from the world-class manufacturer Philips with a power of 300 W, as in the Bosch MFQ 3010 model. But unlike Bosch, this model has 5 speed modes, there is a turbo mode.

Cone-shaped corollas make 20% more movements, covering a larger area in a shorter time and kneading air into the dough for a uniform lush texture.

REDMOND RHM-M2104
Redmond's modern, powerful mixer: very durable, lightweight, made of stainless steel and sturdy plastic.Maximum power - 550 W, 5 speeds, Turbo mode, as in the Philips HR3705 / 00 Daily Collection and Polaris PHM 7016 models.

Disadvantages:
- short power cord;

In all other respects, this is a good device, with an excellent power reserve, five speeds, and protection against overheating. Price - ... On the Yandex. On the market this product is recommended by 91% of buyers.

The device is very powerful, although in terms of power it is inferior to REDMOND RHM-M2104 and Polaris PHM 7016. But this does not prevent it from coping with any task. Even at low speeds, it shows excellent results, although it makes a lot of noise. I also didn't like that the vents are in front: if you bring the working mixer, for example, to the flour, it will fly in all directions. I think this is a design flaw. Price - ... On the Yandex. Market This product is recommended by 100% of buyers.
Bosch MFQ 4020
Another model in the ranking from Bosch. The mixer of the Styline series with a power of 450 W, like the Moulinex HM 4101. They are identical in the number of speeds (there are 5 of them).
