A Silver Heavy-Duty Mixer Lift Built for Compact Base Cabinets

This Rev-A-Shelf ML-HD appliance lift raises a heavy countertop mixer from a base cabinet to working height and lowers it back out of sight, all in a silver metal finish sized for a 12-inch cabinet opening.

Key Features

• 60-pound weight capacity handles a full-size stand mixer and its attachments without straining.
• Soft-close mechanism controls the descent so the lift settles down quietly rather than dropping.
• Fits a 12-inch minimum opening width so it works in narrower base cabinet runs where larger lifts will not.
• Silver metal finish coordinates with stainless appliances and contemporary cabinet hardware.
• No tray included — the mechanism ships ready to pair with a separately sourced tray or platform to match your mixer base.
• Minimum opening requirements of 23-1/2 inches height and 23 inches depth keep the unit clear of cabinet structure through the full travel range.

Bringing a Heavy Appliance Up to Counter Height

A stand mixer stored at cabinet-floor level puts real strain on every lift. The ML-HD mechanism uses a heavy-duty lift arm to bring that weight smoothly up to counter level so the mixer is ready to use without hauling it onto the counter by hand. When the job is done, the lift lowers the appliance back below the counter and the cabinet door closes over it. The 60-pound capacity covers the mixer body plus a bowl and common attachments, so the lift does not need to be loaded thoughtfully for each use — it handles a realistic working weight.

Metal Construction in a Silver Finish

The ML-HD series is built from metal throughout, which gives the mechanism the rigidity it needs to cycle a 60-pound load repeatedly without flexing or loosening at the pivot. The silver finish pairs well with stainless appliances and works in kitchens where chrome or black hardware would read as a mismatch. Because this SKU ships without a tray, the platform that meets the mixer base is specified separately, which lets the installer match material, color, or wood species to the rest of the cabinet interior rather than working around a preset tray color.

Where This Lift Fits the Job

The 12-inch minimum opening width makes this one of the more accessible fits in the ML-HD family, suited to kitchens where base cabinet runs are tighter and a wider unit simply will not go. It works well in a dedicated appliance cabinet in a kitchen remodel, in a custom cabinet shop spec for a client who bakes regularly, or in a new-construction run where the designer has allocated a narrower bay for the mixer. Contractors and cabinet makers sourcing lift mechanisms for multiple cabinet configurations can use this unit to fill the narrower openings in a run while specifying a wider lift for larger bays. The minimum opening height of 23-1/2 inches and depth of 23 inches are the cabinet dimensions to confirm before installation.

Common Questions

A Narrow-Bay Lift That Does Not Compromise on Capacity

Choose the ML-HD in silver when the cabinet opening is tight and the mixer is heavy — this mechanism handles both without asking you to give up one for the other.
