BEST MIXER
You will have this for life. Has wonderful attachments and makes cooking particularly baking easier and with fabulous and consistent results.

Does the job for me.
Why I bought it:

I make a lot of cakes from home.



Pros:

I can make a very big batch of buttercream. I love the options for all of the attachments.



Cons:

It bogs down a little when I really load it up but I haven't had it quit on me. I have to handwash the attachments because for some reason, the dish detergent crystalizes and sticks to them.



Well worth the wait..
My husband ordered this for me for my birthday in the very lovely caviar. I used this well for Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas baking. I made I don't know how many dozens of cupcakes for my daughters birthday party, several standard cakes for Thanksgiving and roughly a dozen cheesecakes for Thanksgiving with no issues what-so-ever. It cleans very easy, looks wonderful on my counter and as the title states, well worth the wait!

Great product, Better Company!
We purchased this mixer last year before Thanksgiving. We got a wonderful deal on it, and decided to purchase it although I'm not a professional in the kitchen! I've ended up using it more that I could have imagined! We did have the mixer start making a knocking noise once, and contacted Kitchenaid. Even when we could get the noise again, the service representative quickly stated that is not acceptable and shipped out a replacement. It was by far the BEST service I have ever received! I am extremely happy with the product and the company's service.

Don't throw away your box...
I owned a 375 watt 5 qt stand mixer for 13 years. I have wanted this mixer for probably 5 years now. I finally found it on sale at a local store with a good rebate. Unfortunately, I forgot and threw away the box right away--it was huge after all! Kitchenaid would not honor the rebate without the UPC from the box. No other proof of my purchase would suffice. So be careful not to throw away your box before cutting off the UPC if you are going to be submitting a rebate to Kitchenaid.



But, the second reason I have given it 2 stars is the actual mixer itself. It does not mix as well as my 5 qt mixer. I cook for a family of 5--2 adults and 3 children. I use my mixer all the time. I have to use the shield with it every time I use it because it spits out flour, etc. if I don't. This means one more thing to wash every time I use it. This mixer also is not as flexible--it does not do smaller recipes as well as my old mixer did.



And finally, I wanted this mixer because I thought my old one rocked unneccessarily. Wrong!! This one rocks as well. And you are only supposed to use the dough hook on speed 2.



All in all, I would not recommend spending the extra money on this mixer. Save the extra money and buy the 5 qt. I think you will be much happier in the long run!
