Hamilton Beach Electric Stand Mixer 4-Quart (63390)

4.4 · 4,463 ratingsCompact4.8/10

Reviewed / updated: Aug 29, 2026

A light, inexpensive tilt-head mixer for occasional baking. The 4-quart bowl and plastic body keep the price and the 10-pound weight down, and it ships with all three standard attachments plus a removable splash guard. Planetary mixing is included, but it is not built for regular bread dough.

    Our take

    The Hamilton Beach 63390 is the mixer you buy when you are not sure you need a stand mixer. It is inexpensive, light enough to lift and store with one hand, and it comes with a flat beater, dough hook, whisk and splash guard, so there is nothing else to buy for cakes, cookies and frosting. It uses true planetary mixing, so the beater sweeps the whole bowl.

    The compromises are what you would expect at this price. The housing is plastic; suction-cup feet help, but under stiff dough you will often keep a hand on it. The 4-quart bowl is a batch or so smaller than the competition, there is no attachment hub, and the 300-watt motor is aimed at light and medium tasks rather than daily bread.

    Owners who use it for everyday baking are largely happy; the one clearly negative review in the sample came from someone replacing a worn-out KitchenAid and expecting the same class of machine.

    Strengths

    • Lowest price and lightest machine in this comparison
    • Comes with all three standard attachments plus a removable splash guard
    • True planetary mixing action
    • Suction-cup feet and simple 7-speed dial

    Weaknesses

    • Plastic body; can move under heavy dough despite the feet
    • Smallest bowl here at 4 quarts
    • No attachment hub
    • 300-watt motor is not intended for frequent bread baking

    Ideal for: Occasional bakers and small kitchens that mostly make cakes, cookies and whipped cream.

    What owners say

    Reviewers repeatedly describe it as light, easy to store and better than expected for the money, with several using it successfully for pizza and bread dough in small amounts. The negative feedback comes from people comparing it directly to a heavy-duty KitchenAid, which it is not meant to replace.

    Ginger

    Buy it, you won't be sorry

    Light enough to handle easily and small enough for a small kitchen. Easy to clean and more powerful than expected. The unit doesn't move around when mixing thanks to the suction cups on the feet.

    Angie

    No more kneading dough by hand

    Bought this to make pizza dough. Garlic knots turned out perfect, way better than kneading by hand. Reasonable price, sturdy mixer.

    Meredith

    Great mixer for everyday baking

    The 4-quart size is perfect for everyday baking and it comes with all the attachments you need. I love that it has 7 speeds.

    For occasional bakers, it does everything you need

    Not complicated to use. It's your basic mixer, and you can bake many cake recipes with it.
