Q: Does the ksm55 have replaceable gears, and is one of the gears nylon?
A: Hi BestbuyCustomer, This model has all metal gears and is repairable.
Q: Are these new ir refurbished? What size motor?
A: Mine came brand new in the sealed factory carton. That was my concern as well. It's brand spanking new. It's much better than a tilt head model. (That's my subjective opinion.)
Q: What flex edge beater is compatible with the KSM55SXXXCU?
A: The double-edge flex beater (Model KDF7B) works perfectly.
Q: What country is this manufactured?
A: Hi Doodmom, all stand mixers are assembled in Greenville, OH.
Q: Does this mixer come with attachments, edge beater?
A: Yes and No, NOTE: it comes with 3 attachments and one of them is steel beater but not the edge one.
Q: Does the top lift up like other KitchenAide mixers?
A: Hi Lifttop, This model does not offer the tilt-head feature.
A: The cranking noise might be a quality control issue with some looser than others. I exchanged my first and replacement was actually clanking louder - sounded broken. Thinking about a different brand now.
Q: what are beaters coated with?
A: Hi darcilu, the coated beater and dough hook planetary shaft attachments provided with KitchenAid stand mixers consist of a cast aluminum base material coated with a food-grade polyester-based powder coating.

Making homemade baked goods just got easier. The Hamilton Beach® Stand Mixer effortlessly mixes ingredients for every baking recipe from thick batters for cake and cupcakes to dense bread doughs and more. Go from slowly folding in ingredients to whipping at top speed. The stand mixer has 7 speeds and a mixing guide that helps you choose the right speed for the job. The slow first speed is great for kneading bread and reducing splatter when adding dry ingredients to wet ingredients. High speed perfectly whips cream or meringue. The stand mixer's planetary mixing action rotates the beaters around the sides of the included 4 quart stainless steel bowl so you don't have to scrape the sides. It has the same rotating mixing action as the higher-priced brands. The mixer performs better than two-beater stand mixers and features the tilt-back head design for easy access to the bowl to add ingredients. The tilting action also makes it easy to quickly change attachments. The stand mixer comes with the 4 quart stainless steel bowl with handles, splash guard, dough hook, whisk and flat beater that are all dishwasher safe. The built-in mixer handle makes it easy to lift, move and store.
