Compare the Top 3 Hand Mixers in Australia 2026

For most Australian bakers the Breville the Mix & Store Turbo Hand Mixer at around $79 is the right buy. It is the well-rounded everyday choice — a recognised brand with twin beaters, dough hooks and a stainless steel wire whisk all in the box, a Turbo Boost button for thick batter, a snap-on storage case that holds the lot, and a retractable cord that tidies away at the touch of a button. Five variable speeds cover everything from a gentle fold to whipping cream, and the whole thing lives neatly in a drawer. The default best-for-most.

The Sunbeam Mixmaster Hand Mixer Pro at ~$58 is the budget pick from the iconic Australian baking brand. Seven speeds, a Burst of Power button for stiff mixtures, a Super Aerator whisk that folds in more air for faster whipping, and a full stainless steel attachment set with its own storage case — everyday baking sorted without spending much. The best value if you want a trusted local name for less.

The KitchenAid 9-Speed Artisan Hand Mixer at ~$169 is the premium pick for serious, frequent bakers. Nine speeds, an 85W DC motor with a clever Soft Start that brings the beaters up to speed gradually to avoid flour clouds, plus extra attachments including a pro-whisk and a liquid-blending rod, all wrapped in KitchenAid's build quality. Worth it if you bake often and want a tool that lasts.

One honest steer: a hand mixer is the right tool for almost all home baking — cream, egg whites, meringue, creaming butter and sugar, cake batter, mashed potato. It is not built for stiff bread dough; for regular kneading and big batches a stand mixer is the better, far more powerful buy — see our best stand mixer Australia guide.
