I love it. I don’t know how I lived without it. I love the extras, the small bowl, scraper and whisk. I made pizza dough last weekend and will be trying fresh pasta next. It is easy to use and there is a lot of information that KitchenAid provides in their manual, their YouTube videos and recipes online. When you make it yourself, you can control what goes in and I believe it will always tase better.

Strong, dependable, versatile. I have owned a number of stand mixers early in my marriage, and it seemed like they would last for 3-5 years. Then I bought a Kitchenaid and it lasted forty years. When it finally needed to be replaced, there was no question about what to replace it with. This new mixer is perfect for me now that I am a senior citizen as I still make a lot of bread, but I also find the small bowl/whisk handy for making dips, sauces, (mayonnaise!) or half-recipes of cakes, cookies, etc. I anticipate that this mixer will live longer than I will at this point and my granddaughter will inherit it when I'm gone. I am confident that it will serve her well for many, many years.

I decided to upgrade my mixer when this one went on sale. The smaller one I had before wouldn't shut off (the slide lever needed repairs). I have a small home based cookie business so I use my mixer to make alot of dough & icing. My 5 qt is probably 15-20 yrs old and still works but could use a tune up. I love that this new one has slower options. I no longer have to deal with flour flying out of the mixer because the lower level lets me slowly incorporate my dry ingredients. This also came with an extra smaller bowl and a cool spatula with a clipped tip that makes it easier to clean off ingredients off the blade. Very happy with my purchase. I also love the color. I chose "Ice" which is aqua. The picture looks like it has a more sparkly/metallic finish, but its actually matte.

My father and sister put together to purchase this for me. I’m a Savory and pastry Chef. I trained on Kitchenaid when I was in school. One of the best mixer ever made. Tilting head mixers don’t have the life span of these. The delivery was great. The delivery lady made sure it was the right address and person before bringing it out of the vehicle. Very nice and professional. I didn’t order it, so I can’t say how the ordering portion was. But, it arrived early and tracking was a breeze. I’m a Walmart+ member, so I love Walmart and Sam’s service.

I purchased this KitchenAid Mixer as a backup for the 2 I already have. I'm an in-home baker & use my mixer quite often. One that I currently use was my Moms and is probably over 30 years old, but still works great. KitchenAid is a brand that you can trust and will last for a very long time if treated well.

Made a double batch of bread and no problem kneading for 10 minutes! The bowls and whisk in 2 sizes are an excellent addition. I researched this across multiple forms and hands down the best price was Sam's Club! Recommend by me.

The 5.5 qt mixer has plenty of power and the larger bowl means ingredients don't spill over the top. However, since the head doesn't tilt you have to remove the attachment by twisting and lowering it into the bowl of ingredients, even with the bowl lowered. Also be sure to read the instructions on how to remove/insert the bowl. It fits over a peg on each side and a spring catch in the back. It's easy once you see how it's done but not necessarily intuitive.

The kitchen aid mixer is still nice, however, the quality seems to have gone south. I actually have 3 other kitchen aid mixers and all are of excellent quality, even my very first one I ever bought 50 years ago. Not sure what happened or what is going on, but please keep your reputation as being the best mixer and quality construction. The mixer bowl handle is not rounded out like the others I have, which is a bit on the sharp side when holding it in the palm of hand. The mixer itself(silver) is nothing like the silver 5 qt I bought a few years back, it almost feels like plastic. Hopefully, kitchen aid mixers are still made in the US. I have become a bit suspect because of the lack of quality. It will serve the purpose, but am disappointed with quality of how it is built. the additional small bowl and whip etc. is nice, price was fair.

This is a beautiful mixer. It is very sturdy. However, i returned it because it's big and very heavy. It's more commercial. I didn't realize the weight. Again, this is not a negative review.

I bought this several weeks ago, washed all of the bowls and utensils and just stored it due to being out of town. I used it for the first day today and in the middle of my mixing it just stopped working. I tried a different outlet but that did not help. Not sure what happened but my previous Kitchen Aid that I had for almost 10 years never had an issue. Glad I bought the extended warranty.
