Bought one as a gift on 11/26/2025. Turned on for 30 seconds and died. Returned and purchased another on 11/28/2025. Turned on for 30 seconds and died. Son and Daughter in-law now have to drive 3 hours to pick up the receipt to try and find a mixer without the speed control issue. KitchenAid ultimately has one job and failed. Won't recall an obvious speed control issue. Letting customers go through the process of diagnosing their manufacturing shortfall instead of being proactive to maintain their brand's good name... Optics indicate GREED. The expectation is simple, KitchenAid: I give you money, you give me a mixer that works. Not one good one in 3, 4 or 5 tries. To Sam's Club: Stop selling these defective units IMMEDIATELY. Return pallets of products back to KitchenAid. Your brand is being tarnished as well; silence is approval!

I’ve always wanted one of these stand mixers. Finally decided to get one while it was on major sale. I wish I would have got one years ago. I just got started in sourdough and hand mixing almost deterred me for good. This was a game changer!! The bowl is a little tricky to figure out at first but it doesn’t take long to figure it out. Pro bakers would probably give 3 stars but if you’re just a regular person looking to save time and your arm this is a fantastic buy!!

I am very happy with my purchase. I do miss the head that tilts but it is fine. You just lower the bowl. All the extra accessories are so helpful! It is very heavy so if you are older it may be difficult to move without help. However the work it does is amazing!

The workers over the chiristmas holiday took the time to help me with this mixer because i wanted a black color one. They needed to get the forklift in a bush store because no black color ones were on the floor. After getting their help with getting the perfect gift they have earned my business for good.

What's not to like? A great powerhouse in my kitchen. Baked hoards of cookies. Not having to use a hand mixer saved me a lot of time and headaches. This is an upgrade to my other mixer (also a KitchenAid) More power, larger size bowl, loved having the lift arm plus the bonus getting the smaller bowl and utensils! What a deal!

I hate this thing. After 30 years of using my KitchenAid 5 speed hand mixer (and never really needing a stand mixer) I treated myself to this piece of plunder in summer 2024. Try to cream butter! Just try! All the butter lands on the sides of the bowl out of the reach of the paddle! It does absolutely nothing. Constantly having to stop and scrape the sides. Adding ingredients is a pain in the rear. I wish I never bought his thing. I got a new hand mixer for Christmas and this thing will be a very expensive space-taker-upper.

This KitchenAid replace my old one that is 42 years old and still works.I really wanted a new one and this model is just wonderful!! I love the color (Mineral Water). All the extra bowls and attachments are a dream!! I am SO happy with my new KitchenAid aka Bertha!!!

Really disappointed in this mixer. I set it up for the first time to make cookie dough. Two minutes into using it on the lowest speed it turned off and won't turn back on. After looking it up I found more people that have had this same issue. Wish I'd seen that before buying it.

I am not crazy about the lift arms. The bigger bowl doesnt fit on it until its lifted up but you have to lower it to put the attachments on and off. I like my previous mixer better where the top or head part goes back and the bowls secure to the bottom.

I was really excited to us this mixer and felt extremely disappointed when, right out of the box it did not work. Pluged it in flipped the switch and nothing happened. Figured it might be a bad outlet moved mixer used a different outlet and again nothing happened. I didnt want to get discouraged and wanted to give kitchenaid the benefit of the doubt. I returned to sams club and exchanged the mix for another one. The joy could be felt in the room when this second mixer roared to life yet the joy was quickly filled with a sense of dread as the mixer started to overheat I know some of you may be thinking that this could be operator error but when using the dough hook at level one setting for less than 4 minutes. There's no reason for This mixer to overheat. I looked up how to reset the mixer after I followed the reset directions, the mixer roared back to life and i was able to return to baking. unfortunately the second time I attempted to use the mixer The mixer would not work. It would roar to life. But it would not spin the dough hook now I must return two sam's club for a second time.
