[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently retired and discovered I wanted to learn how to bake. This is my first stand mixer and I knew I wanted a Kitchenaid. It is so simple to use and is truly a work horse. I am loving my new hobby of baking and am so happy to have my Kitchenaid helping to make it so much fun.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used my new KitchenAid to make rolls and loved how well the machine kneaded the dough and how powerful it was. I had another brand stand mixer that I literally had to hold down to the counter when it started mixing batter. I love that my KitchenAid is sturdy and doesn't move even when kneading dough.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this as an early Christmas gift for myself and my son. We love baking and this has been the best addition to our kitchen. It made our holiday baking so much easier and we actually made a lot more than we have in the past.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I never thought I needed a stand mixer. I had a hand held one. Boy was I wrong! I love using my new kitchen aid. Now when cooking or baking I set the timer and clean up the kitchen as I go. Meanwhile the product I'm preparing comes out just right! Haven't used the attachments yet but I'm thinking I'll love them too.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I would like to see you putting the spring and washer on the attachment shaft again. Without it the attachments are very sloppy and since they are aluminum in my opinion all the wobble and movement are going to eventually make the hole much bigger. Otherwise it is a great appliance.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve made cookies-grated cheese-mashed potatoes- bread mixes & more so far. I try to find different ways, so I can use all of my attachments. It stays on my counter with a cover when not in use. Great present I received!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought my red kitchen aid mixer to make the greatest cheese cake ever. Could not make a great cheese cake without it. I can cream the cream cheese for 4 minutes until smooth and blending in the other ingredients in a single bowl making it Quick and Easy to end of job.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had my mixer for 6 months now, and have used it nearly weekly for different projects. As much as I want to be able to give the mixer 5 stars, I can’t. A 5 rating equates to perfection, but it hasn’t been perfect for me. Each time I use it I have stop in the middle of mixing to scrap the sides and bottom of the bowl. I understand that a scrapper beater is available, but for the cost of the machine, I feel it should have been included as a standard attachment. In addition, I’ve had some difficulty attaching the shredder attachment. However, once attached it worked great, I just wish the feeder spout was a bit larger. I just purchased the meat grinder attachment and am looking forward to using it, I just hope that I don’t have as much difficulty attaching it as I did attaching the shredder.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this mixer when my stand mixer quit. I received what I felt was a good deal and the mixer came with the slicer/shredder attachment. I have enjoyed this mixer and it does an excellent job. It is easy to use, but be warned, it is heavy. It has not moved on my counter while in use. I have only used the shredder attachment. It was easy to attach to mixer and shredded my cheese easily. The attachments were easy to clean and mixer easy to wipe off. I feel I scored big time with this purchase. You, too, will enjoy this mixer.

[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.
