Old-fashioned egg beaters have long been relied on for perfectly aerated egg whites and fluffy whipped cream.  Now the OXO Good Grips Egg Beater combines the same dependable results with innovation and ease.  The smoothly rotating gears are enclosed in the upright handle for protection and easy clean-up. The base detaches by simply pressing two side buttons and can be tossed into the dishwasher.  A stainless steel bridge extends slightly longer than the Beaters to rest against the bottom of the mixing bowl to reduce arm strain. The two stainless steel Beaters can be removed for individual cleaning or to offer a taste of whipped confections.
