I used my mixer for the first time last night and I am in live! This was the easiest, most effortless meat mixing I have ever done. Also, it was very easy to assemble, disassemble and clean! Excellent product. I would highly recommend it. Read more

I give the 15-pound Hakka direct drive mixer 4 stars. The mixer worked well mixing a batch of meat for snack sticks. It was a bit hard to turn and made me think the gear driven model would have been a little better. Another reason for the 4-star review is the wingnuts that hold the mixer paddle to the end shafts are hard to work. Very tight for old fat fingers. I made a tool to help with that. It seemed to be at capacity with 10 pounds of ground meat, and 2 pounds of cheese chunks. Overall, for the money it worked well. It did the job in half the time of mixing it by hand. And it was easier than hand mixing. Down the road when my budget is more flexible, I will get a larger unit that has some gear reduction. I would recommend this for anyone that needs a mixer on a limited budget. Read more

Used my new Hakka mixer today.. Worked as well as I had hoped it would. Made 11 pounds of sausage and mixer was pretty much full.. Maybe would have taken another 1-2 pounds.. Clean up is time consuming but any meat mixer will be. Easy to dismantle and clean.. Very happy.. Read more

it claims to be a 15 lb mixer but there is almost no way it will do more than 10 lbs at a time , with that said its built like a tank , very heavy duty , you shouldn't have to worry about bending the paddles , with the gear box its very easy to turn when fully loaded with meat , it mixed the seasoning very well , its hard to get the meat out without taking the paddles out but thats easy to do . overall its a really good mixer , but i will attach my cordless drill to it for our next batch of sausage instead of cranking it by hand ( easy to do ) just to keep from doing all that cranking Read more
