Life is full of experiences and objects that are both a blessing and curse. Β  Is there a single word - adjective or noun - that indicates when something is a blessing and curse? Β  I've been searching reverse dictionaries and Β the internet Β with no luck.

Ambivalent may come close.

How about bittersweet? Or possibly muddled?

And if you just want a synonym, and don't restrict it to a single word: double-edged sword.

Or even Β mixed blessing.
