This mixer is amazing! You definitely need a sturdy table, I chose a wooden table, as it is heavy. It is easy to use, very powerful, and gets the job more than done! I am a soap maker and I use this for my Shampoo Bars, my 2nd best selling product. My batter is super heavy and thick and this mixer powers through it. Sorry I didn't purchase years ago!
My only complaint is the packaging! It is impossible to open. We actually needed a saw to cut the wooden box as it uses steel corners and sides to connect, not screws. It took us a good 30 minutes just to open it, and it was super messy. I would recommend different packaging to make this easier for the customer to open, so if you are buying, just know this is the case and be prepared with the appropriate tools.
