Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've had this stand mixer for a few months now and I was very excited when it came in the mail. It looks great in my kitchen - very sleek and a nice size. The mixer is very easy to operate and very powerful, I never really mix above speed 5 or so. The whip, dough, and paddle attachments (included with the mixer) secure very easily and stay secured when in use. After everything is secured in place, the lever on the right side (as pictured) is turned to bring the mixing bowl up and in place. The mixer works very well in mixing all ingredients together even if there is very little inside - but sometimes takes a while. The attachments mix all the way to the bottom of the bowl. A cookbook is included with instructions and recipes. The Kitchenaid brand is reliable and it compliments other Kitchenaid items in my kitchen!
The reason for the 4 stars:
The mixing bowl can be a little tedious to put in place, however. There's a little ding in the back that has to fit into a hole. Once it is secured, then the side holes go in. If the back isn't secured first, the mixing bowl is not in place and swings - and would shake loose while mixing. Also, some of the metal coating on the attachments come off (I had to peel back a little so it wouldn't get into my food). After soaking the dough hook (so I could wash it) for a couple hours, it stained with some splotches. When mixing dough with the dough hook for bread, the mixer works very hard (the bowl rattles and the machine gets hot). A few times while kneading dough, the mixer shorted out and stopped working. I had to turn it off, unplug it, let it cool, then start kneading again. The fact that it just stopped working is disconcerting because I'm scared it will just stop working one day.
