Works great, I use it for anything that needed mixed. Still experimenting, but is superior to my mixing by hand.

It is excellent, I used it during the Holidays to do the food and bakery. Everything work very well and smooth. Easy to use and all the extra parts were perfect to work with them. I am happy with my purchased.

I love making my bread dough with this! It makes the job of kneading so easy! I can also whip up a batch of cookies very quickly. I should have bought a lot sooner.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While I always need reliable equipment for my regular sourdough baking and daily kitchen prep, this KitchenAid ended up being more of a hurdle than a help. The machine itself is incredibly heavy, making it an absolute chore to move or adjust on the counter. ​My biggest complaint is how rigid and stiff all the moving parts are. Getting the bowl to properly lock into the support arms is a constant struggle that requires far too much force every single time. On top of that, the top mechanism doesn't lift smoothly and feels stuck half the time. When you are frequently mixing heavy doughs, you need an appliance that operates seamlessly. Fighting with stiff, clunky hardware just to get the bowl attached or the top lifted simply isn't worth the frustration. ​Pros: ​Heavy-duty build quality ​Cons: ​Unnecessarily heavy to move around ​Bowl is extremely difficult to snap into the arms ​Top mechanism is stubborn and hard to lift

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 1. There is no excuse for making this model use different bowls than the previous model. Poor decision that only favors you, not the customer. 2. The quality of the new 5.5 quart bowl is poor. It does not have a smooth, polished finish and is made of thinner material.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my KitchenAid mixer! It's so convenient and easy to use. The bowl lift design is so nice because I can leave the mixer where it sits under the cabinets while I use it instead of having to pull it out to tilt the head back. I've had other brands of stand mixers but nothing compares to KitchenAid!

I wanted this beautiful mineral water blue one forever. Finally saved and bought it. Get it home %26 all ready tp make something. Yep ot won't even turn on. Check different outlets %26 nothing. Return it to Sam's. They swear they've had no complaints. Get another one. That evening I try again. Same thing!! No power!! Heart broken to say the least. Can i possible have the only 2 that didn't work? Do I even want to try this again? Decided to call Kitchenaid. 1st person i talk to tells me that the mineral water blue is a Sams exclusive. After checking on line Kitchenaid does offer the color I want!! Call back and they sent me a replacement. 3rd time was the charm!! I have put in overtime on this mixer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a 30 plus year old Mixer that works perfectly but has gotten tired. My new stand mixer is egually as good. However I have kept the old mixer because the attachments for the new stand mixer are absolute crap. The new stainless steel cheese grader, slicer, etc four piece set is a total waste of money. I have returned 2 set back for a full refund which I received. They jam, clog, and make task i9mpossible to accomplish. The same is true for the meat grinder attachment. They are of an inferior design. I continue to be a big fan of the Kitchen Aid Mixer but will continue to search for better attachments. Mike D

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Always wanted one of these mixers, so happy I finally purchased. It has all the power I need to do whatever I try to make, the versatility is wonderful, however, I still need to purchase some of the attachments that I would like to try

Negative stars! Wish I had read the reviews before purchasing because the same thing happened to me. First one we bought died after one revolution. We returned it for an exchange second one did the exact same thing. This is not a cheap or easy item to lug back-and-forth to the store. Sam should not be selling this particular item given how many people have commented that their mixer died on arrival. It makes me lose trust in Sam's and the quality of their merchandise. Buyer beware!
