Very good, some caveats
We got this for our daughter who is a fairly new but really excellent cook with some formal training. She initially wanted a Kitchenaid, which she has used in cooking classes, and she liked the Kitchenaid model that raises the bowl up to the mixer unit because it's easy to add things to the bowl. We researched user comments at Amazon.com, Consumer Reports recommendations from their testing, and other info. The Kitchenaid (at least one model) is a top-rated unit but expensive and we were put off by the more-than-occasional reports of poor quality, failed gears, gear oil leaks, poor customer service, etc. The Hamilton Beach unit was at least as well-recommended, and had more consistently good reviews (albeit fewer user reviews than the ubiquitous Kitchenaid) and a much longer warranty period. Bosch makes a heavy duty stand mixer but it's rare and even more expensive than a Kitchenaid.

It has been one year and I like this machine. I use it mainly for kneadling bread dough. I have used 3 bread machine before, grey stuff stained the dough around the shaft paddle. This mixer knead the bread more elastic and the texture is much better. NO grey stuff staining my bread dough anymore.
The color I have is red.
Very good mixer
My wife loved this mixer. She has used for all kinds of preparations, and it makes it so much easier for her.
