What it is
Average grade from independent test sites, magazines and video reviewers, 1–10.
How we count it
Grades: Each review's own score is converted to 1–10; without one, we grade the review ourselves. Big test sites count more, short reviews half as much as full tests. A video review counts half.
Score: The average grade is 80% of the review mark; the number of reviews is the other 20% (1 review = 5, the typical number in this category = 8, the most-reviewed model = 10).
Enough data: With few reviews, the average grade is pulled toward the typical grade of this category. No reviews yet: 7.7 for now.

Third-party reviews

What customers like about Instant Pot Stand Mixer 140-1566-01

  • Affordable price point compared to premium brands
  • Generous 6.3-quart capacity is great for large batches
  • Lightweight construction makes it easy to move and store
  • Dishwasher-safe bowl and mixing attachments make cleanup easy
  • Includes a helpful handle on the mixing bowl for a secure grip
  • Planetary mixing action provides thorough bowl coverage
  • Suction-cup feet keep the unit stable during operation

What customers don't like about Instant Pot Stand Mixer 140-1566-01

  • ABS plastic exterior housing feels less premium than heavy-duty die-cast metal alternatives
  • 400-watt motor can struggle or strain with very dense bread doughs
  • Shorter power cord requires close proximity to electrical outlets
  • Lacks advanced digital features like a built-in countdown timer found on higher-end Pro models

Verdict

The Instant Pot 6.3-Quart Stand Mixer (Model 140-1566-01) features a 400-watt motor, a lightweight yet sturdy ABS plastic housing, and a spacious 6.3-quart stainless steel bowl with a handle that can mix large batches up to 100 cookies at once. It offers 6 adjustable mixing speeds plus a pulse function, planetary mixing action for complete bowl coverage, a tilt-head design for easy ingredient access, non-slip feet for stability, and an auto-shutoff safety feature. Main pros include its lightweight portability, easy-to-clean dishwasher-safe attachments (non-stick ceramic-coated paddle and dough hook, whisk, and pouring shield), and stable operation; however, notable cons include a lower motor wattage compared to some heavy-duty heavy metal competitors, a maximum continuous runtime restriction of 5 minutes for heavy doughs to avoid overheating, and a plastic motor base interior that may feel less premium.
