Soft Start Eliminates Food Splatter at Start Up

Older models of food mixers would start up instantly as soon as you flicked the switch. With loose food ingredients in the bowl, this usually meant that there was a sudden activity among the food that caused some of it to splatter up and out, making a mess. With  the Sunbeam 2371 Mixmaster Stand Mixer you do not have to worry about this problem. It uses a soft start features, which means that it start mixing very slowly and gently. Food splatter is thereby eliminated, saving you the time and effort of cleaning up afterwards.

One of the other difficulties encountered with older mixer models was if you needed to add fresh ingredients in to the bowl you would have to stop the mixing action, tilt back the head, or remove the bowl, and add the ingredients. With the Sunbeam 2371 Mixmaster this is no longer the case. It has an off-center mixing head, which means you have more space at one side which allows you to easily add further ingredients or water, easily and safely, while the Sunbeam 2371 Mixmaster continues to mix.
