How heavy is the actual mixer to hold, and does your arm get tired? The shipping weight says 7 pounds.

Just like any other hand mixer. I think cuisineart one was heavier but no guarantee. I think it depends on how long you hold and how thick your batter is.

It is not heavy to hold. The actual mixer weight is no where near seven pounds. It has a nice sturdy feel and is comfortable to use.

The mixer itself is approx. 2 lbs. without beaters. It ships with the beaters, whip and a blender end along with a storage bag. They always estimate on the shipping with it double boxed. It isn't any heavier than any other hand mixer.

It's quite light. The 7 pounds includes all the packaging, paperwork and accessories. My old Cuisinart hand mixer was heavier than this KitchenAid.

Mixer with beaters is not 7 pounds. The mixer is lighter than our old one. Not tiring unless using for prolonged times.

The mixer is not heavy. I would guess around 2 pounds, it's powerful and easy to use.

I weighed it, it is 2 lbs 15 oz. But I have little trouble using it due to a shoulder problem. Im 72 but work out so in fairly good shape... its just the shoulder . It was a lot bigger than I expected when it arrived.

Not sure of weight but it is very well balanced so it really puts no strain on your arms

I never noticed the weight as heavy or light. I use it for a good 10 minutes and my arms don't feel tired.

The weight of the entire unit including the beaters and the case weighs 4 lb. The body alone weighs 2 lb. It is however extremely easy to handle as the weight is not overbearing.

Have owned this mixer nearly a year and have not had difficulty with it moving or 'wobbling'/shaking while mixing heavy doughs or batters. Have mixed 8+C. bread dough as well as other stiff batters for cookies plus kneading of bread dough without difficulty. It is a solid mixer!

I would guess it weighs 5-7 lbs as I can lift it with 2fingers. Should come up 4 steps ok I over fill mine & pull it up 2 steps. It does have handles on the sides to lift the whole thing if you need to.

It says the shipping weight is 7.3 ounces. I will say that it is extremely light weight and if I needed it I would have kept it because it worked flawlessly.

Not sure about the exact weight but its fairly easy to maneuver. Slightly heavy but the way its made makes it easy to hold without hurting your arm

Cannot state actual weight but it is quite heavy (and very sturdy). I have arthritis in my hands and always use both hands to lift it. I love it and always use it more than other lighter weight pots

I bought this as a gift for my daughter. I bought this as a gift for my daughter. When I visited her and saw her food processor, I was disappointed that it was not as heavy as mine.The weight might be a factor, but I have not asked her if hers is working well. My KitchenAid is an older model. Don't think it's your fault.w

I would say around 10-12 pounds. It is somewhat heavy but well worth it for what you get. I love mine and have had no problems.

Good question. It's not super heavy, like my Rowenta Professional was. Probably a couple of pounds.

I don't think it's heavy at all. However, it is not a frail little thing! It is a sturdy hairdryer but I would not consider it heavy. My arm is not at all stressed or tired after blow drying my hair. I honestly think you'll like it.

I no longer have the box but the main blender piece weighs and estimated 3-5 pounds. Easy to hold and not over-weight in feel. I have lost half my arm strength temporarily to an accident and find it not hard to hold the appliance when it is in full use. Still highly recommend it.

It only weighs a coupld of pounds. It is very powerful with excellent attachments. I have had several immersion blenders and this one is the best I have ever had.
