I'm still using a 1948 Hamilton Beach Mixer, Model G. In fact I found another one at the thrift store for just $5 including the 2 original bowls that come with it. The beaters were always the hardest to find as they're a double beater in 1 piece. I was able to find 3 of them for just $.50 each so I'm set for the rest of my life. This is a stand mixer and you can take the mixer off and use it as a hand mixer. You can move the location of the bowl so the beaters are working along the side or the middle and anything in between. All I've ever had to do is replace the power cord as my mother used it way back when and she liked to just yank the cord out from the wall.
Of course my dream is one of those fancy dancy Kitchen-Aid mixers like my sister's but that will never happen in my time so I made a cover for my mixer with a saying on it.
Also no dimples on the bottom of these bowls either.
