purchasing to...? ...give as a Christmas gift?
My family draws names for Christmas and I got one of my sisters this year. I found out that her old hand mixer "doesn't beat very well anymore" (her words) and she'd like to receive a new one.
I checked a few of my favorite stores online today, just to see what's out there -- and I was amazed that some of these little gadgets are in the triple-digit range! I always thought you could get a good one for about $30 or so. (At least, I think that's what mine cost -- and I've had it for at least 5 years now.)
Do you have a favorite brand you recommend, or are there features that are new/helpful I might be unaware of that you would recommend looking into? Am I missing something about the quality of the product if I choose to buy one in the $35-50 range instead of the ones that run $75-100? What one would you buy, and why?
Thanks!
P.S. I'm already planning to give a gift receipt with it, so she can return/exchange it if she doesn't like it!
