Product Manuals

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: What color is INK BLUE? Is it bright or more muted like a navy blue--5.5 Quart Bowl-Lift Mixer? Also, why is this mixer $100.00 less than the KitchenAid - Artisan Series 5 Quart Tilt-Head Stand Mixer

A: Ink blue is a deep, dark purplish blue. Very pretty. Usually this mixer is more costly than the Artisan tilt heads. The bowl lift mixers have a stronger motor than the tilt heads. They supposedly can handle thicker mixtures.

Q: Hello, I actually have two questions. First, how do I lift the handle and how far does the handle tilt up? Second, during mixing I’ll want to get my scraper along the edges, will that be possible? It was not possible on the Aliesson mixer.

A: ALL YOU DO IS ROTATE THE HANDLE IN THE BACKTO RAISE THE BOWL. YOU TURN TIL IT STOPS !/2 ROTATION I STOP THE MIXER & LOWER THE BOWL TO SCRAPE THE SIDES OR ADD INGREDIENTS

Q: is the KitchenAid 5.5 Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer a AC or DC motor? And if AC is it as quiet as the Artesion?

A: Hi lee, The 5.5 model is an AC motor with all metal construction and will be louder than the Artisan Model.

Q: do you need cover bowl?

A: You do not need one...but a cover is very useful.

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.
