[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought my mixer about a month ago & finally used it yesterday to make cinnamon rolls. It worked like a dream. I got all the attachments with it. I have never had a dough hook & it took all the work out of kneading & the roll had a wonderful soft texture. Love it. I had been using my mother’s 1940’s Kitchen Aid & decided it was about time to upgrade. What a difference. My only complaint would be that it is heavy but I am 77 so that may be the cause. Kitchen Aid is the best.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am thrilled beyond belief with my new Kitchenaid Artisan Mixer! I have been baking bread, pies,cookies and trying new recipes almost daily since purchasing my new Red Kitchenaid! I love how easy it makes bread and cinnamon rolls! Not to mention Hot Water Crust pastry and more! I don’t know how I managed for 50+ years without one, but I do know I will own nothing else after finally getting an artisan Kitchenaid! I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!

[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.] This was bought to replace my 20 year old classic KitchenAid stand mixer. After 20 years going strong, it still worked but was getting 'wobbly' and loose. I wanted the newer model for the added features and to have a newer/tighter model. I handed the first one down to my wife's aunt (who will probably have it for another 20 years). These things are amazing and indestructible!!! I have made countless cakes, batches of biscuits, batches of mashed potatoes, and meat loaf's using the original and have already broken in the new one with the same. An amazing product for sure, made just as good or better than my old one. I love the attachments. it makes cheese shreds as soft as clouds!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m really disappointed with my purchase. I absolutely love my previous artisan mixer but ordered this item specifically for the color to match our new house decor. While using it the first time, it sounded like the motor was already going out. I will say customer service was fantastic to work with! The lady heard the motor and agreed it should not sound like that. A new one is on its way to me. If you don’t have this issue then you’re golden.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband has been wanting a KitchenAid for years. This year we decided it would be the gift to ourselves. Boy of boy, we were not disappointed. Our prep time has been cut in half, clean up is quick and easy and we love the machine.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this as a Christmas present for my wife to make things easier for her and free up some time for her. Well it made things super easy, didn't free up any time because now she is making more goodies. Great machine and she loves it. Will be purchasing more attachments for it in the near future.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 40 years ago I spent my wedding money on a harvest gold KitchenAid tilt-headmixer. I sold it and bought a white one after about 15 years. I then bought a pink one and had two at the same time. I could keep going, but none have broken down. I sell them or give them away. I bought new ones just for a color change. This aqua sky ones looks awesome on my kitchen counter. I expect it to give me the same great performance as all of my previous ones. I don’t plan to ever be without one and always recommend them to others. I haven’t tried out the Fresh Prep attachment yet. Love my KitchenAid mixers!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received what I thought were hints my wife wanted a mixer, but the party balloons all deflated when it was unwrapped on Christmas day. She could not justify the space it takes up on the counter based on the amount of baking she does in the kitchen. I thought that Kitchen Aid provided me a machine with great build quality, an inexpensive replacement warranty and additional accessory bonus at an amazing price, but it's being returned.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this as my older one is starting to make different noises when I use it, however this I one quart smaller. I didn't think it was a big difference but it is. I was able to make a triple batch of cookies in the old one but now I'm lucky to make a double batch.
