[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've only had my mixer for a week. I've used it twice to make homemade ice cream. My first attempt was a failure at my own fault. My second attempt was a success. Delicious South Jersey homemade strawberry ice cream. I'm looking forward to using this mixer for much more. Will update my review when I do. Thank you Kitchenaid.

I've had my KA for a year and a half. I use it once a month or so. I have loved it - and purchased multiple attachments including the 2 pastas attachments and the ice cream bowl. Suddenly, in the middle of making a bread dough, the head stopped spinning. Considering the price point of the KA and the expected quality, this is very upsetting. My KA is no longer functional after maybe 20 or so uses.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for myself as a Christmas present. Used it a couple of times mashed potatoes, mixed pancake was great. The first time I made bread I was kneading it on setting "2" and it started squeaking intermittingly. Not sure if it was just a one time thing or not. Waiting to make bread again before i get too concerned.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this as a gift and love it so much. I’ve made cupcakes, cookies, fresh pasta and mixed meatballs all in ONE WEEKEND. It’s extremely easy to clean and powers through whatever challenge I give it. I can’t wait to make more with it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had this mixer for nearly 2 months and use it more often than expected. It really speeds up my work in the kitchen. I store it on my counter top so I frequently use it with no hassle. My husband said that I’m like a kid with a new toy at Christmas. Clean up is simple too. I haven’t tried the shredder attachment but look forward to using it soon. So happy that I can easily shred chicken with the batter attachment.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this mixer the end of November. I love, the fact I don't have to stop mixing to add other ingredients. It keeps going. I used it to make gingerbread cookies (that's a real thick mixture) and they mixed up great. My husband used the slicer/shredder attachment to make slaw and he loves it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I made a vegetable salad and used the shredder and slicer I LOVE IT! It was so easy to use and did a better job than my food processor. Then I made peanut butter cups and the mixer did a great job. The peanut butter mixture can be dense and the mixer had no problem at all. I also like that you can remove the splash guard.

Beaters don't mix the ingredients that get tamped down or caught around the "divet" in the bottom of the bowl.The divet is too deep. Must scrape the sides multiple times in a batch. Beater often falls off the mixer head. Latching on isn't tight enough. My old KA mixer from 1951(yes!) did not have this problem. The old KA beaters are worn so thin that I fear the metal will break off in the batter. It was a work horse for me. I am disappointed you do not make the beater replacements for my 1951 model. They should be universal beaters for ever.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this mixer! What a helpful tool for a home baker! I'm in love with the fact that I can whip up several batches of cookies in no time at all. This mixer saves me so much time and energy. The shredding attachment is wonderful for grating zucchini for homemade zucchini breads. I can't wait to see what else this baby can do! Definitely would recommend this tool in your kitchen. :)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I waited a month for my kitchenaid to arrive. I ordered the ice cream attachment with it. I've only made ice cream so far and it's been a learning process but my attempt at homemade Jersey strawberry was delicious. This morning I made fresh pineapple ice cream and waiting for it to freeze.
