What Others Say
If you love top-of-the-line, you will LOVE this Kitchenaid!!!
This Kitchenaid mixer is really a top-of-the-line work-horse for your kitchen!! It is sturdy, powerful, and heavy-duty. Get a second bowl right away, if you will be using this for Holiday baking, or even for an easy meal. This will be the centerpiece of your kitchen. I love the licorice color, it is a flat black color, but has a sheen to it. Shows NO fingerprints, cleans super easy. I like using just hot water and a micro-fiber cloth for easy wipe-ups. I personally don't use the pouring shield, but you may like it. I have all white kitchen appliances, with a vintage flare to the kitchen, with 50's colors. The licorice goes great, is really a show-piece. I would never part with this machine, I sort-of want another one, lol!
Power baby!
I purchased this specifically to make my New Year's tamales. I use it to mix the masa (dough). Now I don't have to mix the masa by hand like I used to. My wonderful baby does it for me. It can mix up to 5lbs of masa at a time. For cooks who prepare large batches of food, this is your mixer! The more powerful motor makes a big difference! What a great value for this mixer. I made 200 tamales without breaking my back.
Love It!
This mixer is absolutely the best mixer that I ever owned. It works magnificently! I have made cookies, cakes and even dough with ease. The bowl with handle is a great feature and clean up is a whiz. I would recommend this to everyone!
Ultimate Mixer
My husband bought this mixer for me for xmas this year. It was more than what i had expected. I already have a Classic model that i have owned for 10 yrs, but i have really dreamed about owning a "lift" model. Wow, was i surprised when i got it as a gift! I have been using it every weekend since i got it. I love the splash shield, the lower mixing speeds and the hi speed whips. Highly recommend this model to anyone that does alot of baking - even my teenage son likes it more. My Classic is now in our Pole Bldg kitchen for summer baking needs (i'm not getting rid of this one either) KitchenAid by far is a superior product.
14 dozen cookies!
While I have not tried to make the 14 dozen cookies the literature says it can make in a single batch, it is great for multiple loaves of bread and everything I prepared for the holidays. Especially like the plastic rim attachment for the 6 qt bowl, allows you to add ingredients with ease. This is a major difference compared to the 5 quart KA I had for 20 years. Happy New Year and forget the diet, start cookin'!!!
