A Kmart shopper has discovered her stand mixer can only be used for seven minutes at a time before needing to “rest” for 20 minutes.

includes a description for the seven speed bench top mixer, which says it can “whip up mixes for cakes, pastries and make fluffy doughs for bread”.

But the manual warns “the maximum continuous operation time is 7 minutes. Allow it to rest for at least 20 minutes before using it again.On the woman’s Facebook post dozens of commenters urged her to return the product and called the instructions “ridiculous”, according to the“I wouldn’t risk it. If you’re planning on using it lots with similar recipes that require a long time of mixing, invest in one that are more reputable higher quality brands,” one woman advised.

“Yeah I’d return that … just to get a decent buttercream you need to beat your butter for 15 to 20 minutes before adding icing sugar,” another said.“I have had this one for over a year now, use it three to four times a week for definitely more than seven minutes and it still works a treat for the price,” one person wrote.
