Query: price doesn't ensure quality

After years of burning out cheap mixers I upgraded from the $.. specials to the kitchen aid 7 speed. I thought I would never need another hand held. Wrong. The lock on 1 beater broke after fewer than one dozen uses. I admit to abusing my cheap mixers, mixing plaster of paris and mud pies, but my only problem was having the motor sieze. When I spent major bucks for a mixer my reckless mixing days ended. I swear I only made cookies and cake batter, nothing that should cause the beater holder to break. I am very disappointed with the quality of this product. Having had both, I recomend any cheapo over this one.
