Hamilton Beach 4-Quart 7-Speed Stand Mixer with Easy-Carry Handle (63391)
Reviewed / updated: Aug 29, 2026
Almost the same machine as the Hamilton Beach 63390, but lighter, at 8 pounds, with an integrated carry handle on the head. The one to pick if you store the mixer in a cabinet and lift it out to bake. Same 4-quart bowl, 300-watt planetary motor, 7 speeds and three attachments plus a splash guard.

Our take
The 63391 is Hamilton Beach's answer to the most common complaint about stand mixers: they are heavy. At 8 pounds it is the lightest full-size mixer on this site, and the head has a moulded carry handle so you can pull it off a shelf with one hand. It uses true planetary mixing, so the beater sweeps the whole 4-quart stainless bowl.
Everything else is standard budget-mixer: a plastic housing kept in place by suction-cup feet, a 300-watt motor aimed at cakes, cookies, frosting and small batches of dough, seven speeds with a printed guide, and a flat beater, dough hook, whisk and splash guard in the box. There is no attachment hub.
With more than 10,000 ratings at 4.5 stars it is one of the most-reviewed sub-$100 mixers on Amazon. The reviews are dominated by people who downsized from a heavy KitchenAid, often for age or hand-strength reasons, and are happy with the trade.
Strengths
- Lightest mixer here at 8 lb, with a built-in carry handle
- Over 10,000 ratings at 4.5 stars
- Flat beater, dough hook, whisk and splash guard all included
- Suction feet keep it from walking; very inexpensive
Weaknesses
- Plastic body
- Small 4-quart bowl
- No attachment hub
- Some owners find the 7 speeds barely different; US 120V only
Ideal for: Occasional bakers who store the mixer in a cupboard and want the lightest, easiest-to-move option.
What owners say
Light weight and value dominate the reviews. Many owners, often older or with wrist or hand problems, moved down from a heavy KitchenAid and say this does everything they need without the bulk. It stays put on the counter thanks to the suction feet. The recurring criticisms are limited speed differentiation and that it is a US-plug appliance.
Light weight and easy to use
I have been using a larger KitchenAid mixer for years, but as I have gotten older it was getting too heavy for me to move around the kitchen. This one I can lift with one hand.
Great stand mixer, especially for the price
I previously owned a KitchenAid which I loved, but it got damaged, so I researched less expensive options since I don't use one often. This works well for what I need.
Does not slide around on the counter
Works very nice. Has 3 paddles, handles heavy-duty jobs as well as small mixing jobs.
Reliable performance for everyday baking
It handles mixing, whipping and kneading with ease, and the different speed settings give good control. The motor is strong enough for everyday recipes.
