Lumina (Aldi) Stand Mixer

This is a great mixer, leaves my Sunbeam for dead. Ease of cleaning great, and what a great idea to have a light shining into the bowl.

I actually love this mixer!!....ONLY it is such a pain with the left hand beater unlodging every few seconds!! I have written to Aldis a few times ....sadly ...no reply :( I would dearly love a replacement it is so good in every other way... maybe...

I've only had it a short while and I'm tempted to return it as it is quite difficult to use as a stand mixer due to the speed issues. The beaters as a hand held device work fine though.
