Cuisinart 5 Speed Hand Mixer with Storage Case

The scoop

Spotted a Cuisinart 5 Speed Hand Mixer hitting the clearance racks at $27.97, and this one’s worth a closer look if you’ve been putting off replacing that ancient hand mixer collecting dust in your drawer.

This is Cuisinart’s straightforward 5-speed hand mixer that comes with the essentials: a whisk attachment, beaters, and a slide-on storage case to keep everything together. It’s a no-frills workhorse designed for everyday baking tasks—whipping cream, mixing cookie dough, or blending cake batter without dragging out a full stand mixer.

At this clearance price, you’re looking at solid value for a name-brand hand mixer. Cuisinart typically delivers decent quality in this category, and finding one under $30 with attachments and a storage case is genuinely competitive with what you’d find online or at other retailers. This isn’t some jaw-dropping markdown from $100, but it’s a fair price for what you’re getting—especially if your current mixer is limping along on its last speed setting.

Hand mixers often hit clearance in early January as stores make room for spring merchandise, though it’s also possible this particular model is being discontinued in favor of a newer version. Either way, clearance pricing on small kitchen appliances means limited stock. If you’re even remotely interested, don’t assume it’ll still be there on your next trip—these tend to disappear quickly at this price point.

If you’ve been making do without a hand mixer or yours is held together with hope and ancient batter residue, this clearance find checks the boxes without breaking the bank. Anyone else feel like hand mixers are one of those things you don’t appreciate until yours dies mid-recipe?
