[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so happy with this KitchenAid 5.5 Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer. It is strong and sturdy. It has plenty of power and has worked great for the things I have mixed with it. I was surprised at how simple and easy it is to operate once you become familiar with it. The bowl firmly snaps into place and is held very securely but also pops out with little effort when you are ready to remove it from the stand. A lever moves the lift up and down. There is also an adjustment screw to fine tune the bowl placement so the beater or whisk just barely clears the bowl to maximize mixing without hitting the bowl and causing wear and damage. It is simple and easy to attach and remove the various attachments. There is a wide selection of speed settings so you can work to your needs. The color finish of the stand is beautiful and very high quality that will not be easily damaged. It is easy to clean. The materials and build of the stand are very high quality. This is a very sturdy mixer that will last a long time. This set comes with many pieces. Having the smaller bowl as well as the regular size bowl is really nice when I'm working with small amounts. The different attachments are great for different jobs and the spatula is shaped just right to work perfectly with this set up. All of the included items are high quality, function great, and are very durable. This mixer really does make things easier and more convenient. I am happily surprised at how much difference it makes. I am so glad I tried this mixer. I highly recommend it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I find it very difficult to add ingredients in when the bowl is on the stand. Its to hard too constantly take it off and on when i need to add ingredients. Also I miss having the handle like I had on my old kitchen aid mixer. It does the job, but miss my old kitchen aid.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This mixer is amazing, it's big and very sturdy. I love how easy it is to use. And the different attachments make is easy to mix anything. The bowl can be raised and lowered to get the bottom of the bowl with ease.

I bought this mixer a year ago. Very shortly after(like weeks) the mixer attachment had a paint chip, but nothing could be done so I let it go. The mixer itself is amazing. I bought the shredder/slicer attachment and use that all the time instead of buying shredded cheese. It’s black and looks beautiful on our countertop.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've never had a mixer like this. It's so simple to use and takes the strain off my already achy body. I've used this to help mix my cake batters and frostings with ease. It blends evenly, better than any I've had. The whip attachment makes the fluffiest toppings and cookies I've done in a long time. It is simple to clean and it looks great even if I leave it out- it is very stylish for cookware!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought it on black Friday , I make lot of bakings it’s helpful and shorten the time of work. I have problem when doing bread and like 2 or even 3 cups of flour the big bowl is very big and the beater doesn’t touch the bottom, and for the small bowl that comes with it, it doesn’t have beater. It drives me crazy for this reason

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't like that the head doesn't lift up. It's inconvenient to have to take the paddle and the bowl off every time that I need to scrape the bowl down. I don't like the way the machine sounds like a ufo however, I do like the capacity of which I can make my batters.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my mixer but I'm pretty upset that I've only used it a few times and the paint is already coming off the paddle it is the powder coated paint one I would have thought it would have lasted longer so much for quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The KitchenAid 5.5 Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer works great. I have made several things in it that turned out great. I love that the mixer lifts for easier access. I like that you can buy different attachments that you can use to make pasta, pastries or even grind meat. It comes with a flat beater, dough hook and 6 wire wise. The color is nice also.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There is nothing quite like a kitchen aid. I am convinced this is the best stand mixer in the market. This appliance makes me feel like I am a professional at baking and cooking. Mixing, whisking, or making dough-- this mixer does everything
