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!

I love the way this looks in my kitchen, it’s very classy and the color is beautiful ( I got the silver/gray ) Purchase the extra insurance 3 year warranty. It’s more powerful than my old kitchen aid mixer bought over 15 years ago. Will definitely enjoy a lot of baking this year for Christmas. Sam’s club had the best price especially when I got it on sale. Thanks Sam’s ♥️

Love my KitchenAid 5.5 Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer. It has great power to get the job done. So far, I have made a pound cake, a cheeseball, and mashed potatoes twice. (Christmas & New Years Eve) This mixer made the process so easy. It is also surprisingly quiet, runs smooth, has plenty of speed selections, and it is easy to clean. However, it is heavy, so plan to leave it out on your countertop, but it is so nice looking you really won't want to hide it in a cabinet. Also, the bowl can be a challenge to snap into place, but you get used to it real fast. I am so glad I chose this model and I am very happy I bought it from Sam's Club at a great price!

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.

I sold my tilt 4.5 quart so I could buy this one because I need a little bigger bowl and I thought its the new design has to be better right ? nope worst purchase I have ever made, I hate using this thing, the handle to raise the bowl is very cheaply designed and not smooth at all, you have to take the mixing spatula out to remove the bowl. almost impossible to add ingredients without making a mess, I could go on and on.... This design makes using it so much more difficult and I really really hate using it, now I am stuck with a piece of junk when I had a perfectly good and awesome tilt head mixer that I got rid of because I believed all the hype about this piece of crap, seriously see no advantages to this at all, none, buyer beware. I have had this for 3 months and find myself using my hand mixer because I hate this thing so much....

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.

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!

This is the real thing. Whoever runs the kitchen workshop needs real professional level tools. In our case it is my wife. She has owned prize-winning restaurants, but never wanted to spend the money for the same quality tools she had in her restaurant kitchens. Christmas was the breakthrough moment. While baking something she just couldn’t any longer mix the heavy batter by hand. At last we finally out a kitchen aid mixer at home. The down side is now my wife wants me to get down to the shop and make a proper work table for it. It’s now part of our family. Fair warning

I love KitchenAid products! They appliances last and last. This mixer is made with real metal and not plastic. I had a small cake business for 35 years and started out with a cheaper mixer. It didn’t last anytime at all. So I bought KitchenAid and there is a huge difference. It’s the only thing I will buy now.
