A hand mixer is a handheld electric device that blends, whips, beats, and mixes many ingredients for baking or cooking. Some have whisk attachments, dough hooks, or flat beaters, which are removable to clean. Most hand mixers have different functions, like accelerating or decelerating the speed; and some are corded or cordless.
