- Experts say that a swiveling cord makes ambidextrous use of this mixer easy, and the handle design is comfortable. The Cuisinart CHM-7 performs well in mixing, mashing, and whipping tests.
- With owner-written reviews numbering less than a dozen, long-term durability is an open question for the Cuisinart CHM-7 hand mixer. We read a higher-than-average number of reports of early death for this mixer.
Professional reviewers say the Cuisinart PowerSelect CHM-7 performed well in nearly all their tests. Experts liked the digital touchpad display, swiveling cord, handle design, and overall balance. Owner reviews are mixed, with some owners praising the unit's power and others criticizing the design. Some owners say that their mixers were short-lived. The PowerSelect is moderately priced for a top-rated mixer. The Braun MultiMix 4-in-1 M880 (*est. $40) performs nearly on a par with the Cusinart PowerSelect in testing, but experts find its design less ergonomic. The less expensive Cuisinart PowerSelect CHM-3 (*est. $30) is similar, but with three speeds instead of seven; it's recommended by Good Housekeeping editors.
The Cuisinart PowerSelect CHM-7 has been included in professional tests at Cook's Illustrated. Several owners have posted reviews of this hand mixer at Amazon.com and Epinions. The CHM-7PK is the same model with a pink housing.

Editors at Cook's praise the Cuisinart PowerSelect's on/off switch, which they consider an important safety feature. A balanced design and swiveling cord are pluses. A stiff peanut-butter cookie dough caused the PowerSelect to hesitate, but it passed all the other tests.
