Description
Judge 400W twin blade hand mixer with dough hooks
A 400W hand mixer with six speeds and a turbo boost, supplied with beaters and dough hooks for everything from light batters to heavier dough.
The Judge JEA98 is a twin blade hand mixer built around a 400W motor, with a stainless steel barrel and a black plastic body that sits comfortably in one hand. It comes with a set of beaters for batters and creaming, plus dough hooks for heavier mixtures, and a storage clip to keep everything together in a drawer.
Six speeds cover everything from a gentle start to a fast finish, and a turbo button adds an extra burst of power when a mixture needs it. The dial sits under your thumb on the handle, so you can move up or down through the speeds without changing your grip or stopping the motor.
Ideal For
With beaters for batters and dough hooks for bread, one mixer covers most everyday baking jobs without reaching for a larger stand mixer to do the same work.
The dough hooks handle heavier mixtures than beaters alone can manage, useful for bread and pizza doughs without needing a stand mixer's bowl taking up space on the counter.
At just 957g, it is light enough to hold for a full mixing session, and the storage clip keeps the beaters and hooks together in a drawer.
Key Features
A 400 watt motor takes the effort out of mixing thicker batters and bread dough, without the mixer feeling like hard work to hold.
Six settings cover light whisking through to heavy mixing, and a dedicated turbo button adds a short burst of extra power on demand.
The speed control sits under your thumb on the handle, so you can adjust pace mid-mix without changing your grip on the mixer.
Two stainless steel beaters handle batters and creaming, while two dough hooks are supplied for heavier mixtures like bread and pizza dough.
A clip holds the beaters and dough hooks together when they're not attached to the mixer, so nothing gets lost loose in a drawer.
Light enough to hold through a full mixing session, at 957g it sits closer to a compact hand mixer than a bulkier alternative.
Two attachments, one motor
Most hand mixers come with a single pair of beaters, which is fine for batters but struggles once a mixture gets heavier. The JEA98 is supplied with both: two stainless steel beaters for creaming butter and sugar or whisking eggs, and two dough hooks for bread and pizza dough that would otherwise need kneading by hand. Swapping between them takes seconds, and a storage clip keeps the spare pair together in a drawer instead of loose.
Six speeds under your thumb
The speed dial sits directly under your thumb on the handle, which matters more than it sounds. Rather than stopping the mixer to reach a separate switch, you can ease off the speed the moment a mixture starts to splash, or push into the turbo button for a short burst when creaming cold butter. It keeps both hands doing their job: one steering the bowl, the other controlling the mix.
Built for regular use, not occasional baking
A hand mixer that only gets used once or twice a year can get away with being basic, but the JEA98 is built with more regular baking in mind. The 400 watt motor is strong enough for bread dough as well as light batters, the beaters and hooks are both supplied rather than sold separately, and the storage clip is a small detail that only matters if you're putting the mixer away and taking it back out often, week after week.
How It Compares
| Kitchen Need | Judge Feature | Practical Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Creaming butter and sugar | 400W motor, 6 speeds | Enough power to cream cold butter smooth without the motor stalling partway through the mix. |
| Kneading bread dough | Dough hooks included | Two hooks take over from hand-kneading for straightforward bread and pizza doughs. |
| Whisking eggs or cream | Turbo button | A short burst of extra power for the last stage of whisking to soft peaks. |
| Mixing while adding ingredients | Thumb-operated dial | Change speed without letting go of the mixer or reaching for a separate switch. |
| Storing mixer attachments | Storage clip | Keeps the spare beaters or hooks clipped together instead of loose in a drawer. |
| Long mixing sessions | 957g body weight | Light enough in the hand that a full mixing session doesn't tire out your arm. |

The Verdict
Strengths
- 400 watt motor handles both light batters and heavier dough
- Six speeds plus a turbo button for extra power
- Comes with two beaters and two dough hooks
- Thumb-operated dial adjusts speed without changing grip
- Storage clip keeps attachments together between uses
- Weighs 957g for extended mixing without arm fatigue

Considerations
- It's a handheld mixer without a stand or bowl, so you'll need to hold it steady through the whole mix.
- The beaters and dough hooks aren't stated as dishwasher safe, so it's worth checking care instructions before washing them.
- The storage clip keeps the beaters and dough hooks together, but there's no separate case or bag for the mixer body itself.
