Product Description
Rev-A-Shelf introduces the latest break-through in kitchen convenience, the NEW HEAVY-DUTY chrome mixer lift. The ideal way to conceal small appliances and BIG KitchenAid Mixers when they are not in use. With an easy pull of the shelf, the heavy-duty lift mechanism gracefully raises your mixer to counter top level giving you the kitchen accessory you need in a matter of seconds. When you're finished, gently pull on the release levers and the lifting/lowering mechanism smoothly returns the mixer to your cabinet for convenient storage. The RAS-ML-HDCR also features built-in shock dampers, adjustable spring tension, and holds appliances up to 60 lbs. See the links below for details, over 45 lbs. requires considerably more effort to raise and lower. Please Note: Contains Lifting Mechanism ONLY. Shelf & Mixer not included

 appliance lift July 14, 2006

This is a good product, and makes it possible to get those big mixers and food processors off the counter. The appliance lift is a rather big mechanism, but it works smoothly without the need for superior strength. It will, however, take up more room than you think. We were worried that it might be wobbily, especially when holding a heavy mixer. But it seems to be remarkably stable and does not move from side to side when using. It has worked for us.

Lift is sturdy enough but allows quite a bit of side to side movement. This is not a limiting factor just an annoyance. In my opinion it is somewhat over priced.
Heavy-duty mechanism, difficult installation December 13, 2005

This shelf hides the huge stand mixer that I love, but do not love sitting on my countertop. With the pull of two levers, it lifts very, very easily and smoothly up to countertop height and locks with a audible clank so that you know it is secure. Pull the two levers again and it lowers into your cabinet in a very controlled fashion.
It loses a star because the setup was very difficult for my husband and the carpenter working on our kitchen remodel. It took them three hours to figure out how to install this. Of course it was almost midnight when they started so being a bit exhausted may have contributed to their difficulties.
The mechanism requires a bit of cabinetry space. We mounted the hardware onto a store bought cutting board (you must supply your own shelf-this kit is only the mechanism) and had to trim it to approx. 15" for an 18" door opening. So both sides need about 1.5" of clearance for the hardware. This was installed in a base cabinet without a drawer. I don't know if it would work on a cabinet that had a drawer at the top. We put a sliding shelf under it and there should be just enough height to stack a couple of mixing bowls. I would look very carefully at your measurements first.
I'm extremely pleased with this very heavy-duty, smoothly operating mechanism. The assembly was problematic and it does eat a bit of cabintry space. But of course you recoup countertop space so it depends which is more valuable in your household.
