I have the Sunbeam portable mixer 2486. I was making Parker house rolls with the dough hooks. After blending the dough, the mixer just stopped. The motor will no longer be turned on or off. I want to know what happened to the mixer and then my options at this point. Janis Zaveri

    We do have the manual; and read it. It recommended we take the mix master to a local repair shop to see if they could fix it.


    PROBLEM WITH LOCAL REPAIR SHOP:
    There isn't one. We'd have to mail it in to a shop who would charge for their analysis. When we called, they weren't sure they could fix it. We called three different repair centers. We'd incur costs for shipping and the analysis. This is before the cost to repair the mix master. And it still may not be able to knead dough, even though it was sold with dough hooks.


    PROBLEM WITH BUYING ANOTHER SUNBEAM PORTABLE MIX MASTER
    Based on this experience, a portable mix master may not have enough motor power to knead dough. If this is true, I need to know. I want to know what options I have. For kitchen space purposes, I need a portable; but, I need to knead dough on occasion.

Hi Janis.

You have likely burnt the motor. That is the most common fault when the mixer is used for a prolonged time on a compact dough.

The best thing to do is ringing Sunbeam at the number listed on the owners manual, and checking what conditions for repair are offered.

If you have misplaced the manual, then track the number using Sunbeam website: Sunbeam.

Regards.

Mixer won't start after mixing dough.

There is a good chance you burned up the electrical Connectors to the motor or you have have blown the FUSE that is located inside the housing. The Motor has a Self Shut Off when it overheats but if you have over taxed the motor more than once, then there is a good change you need to repair/replace it with something that can handle harder work. My sister got a Mix Master the same time I got my Kitchen Aid, My Kitchen Aid is running strong since 2003 and her Mix Master died in 2005 and I bought her a Kitchen Aid. Sorry but I am not fond of the Sunbeam Mixer's.... Quality has gone down hill over the years to keep their prices low.

Bread hook use

Use it to the side. This will pull the dry ingredients off the bowl. If the dough is coming out lumpy, make sure you follow the recipe exactly. Putting dry into wet will give different results than putting wet into dry. If this doesn't end the lumps, try a different type of flour.
