Great for double recipe
|Posted .I really like the item it helps me a lot for whatever recipe i want, specially making bread dough I can double the recipe because it’s huge enough. Actually I already had one before therefore I got 2 now because I’m doing some bread dough for I had a lot of customers ordering some of my different kinds of bread.

Used machine sold as new
Posted .I ordered my Kitchenaid Pro Stand Mixer from a Best Buy Cyber Week sale and waited one week to receive it. It arrived today and when I unpacked it, it was clearly a used machine, complete with butter smeared on the side, chips in the painted paddle attachment, a bunch of scratches on the base, and an oxidized whisk attachment. Clearly, Best Buy didn't check this machine out when it was returned and just reshelved it for my purchase. I'm very disappointed and probably won't buy online from them again. I'll just stick to the products I can see in the store.

Pretty good
|Posted .Pros mentioned:PowerfulI have used this mixer on several projects. I have made muffins and bread mostly. This unit is pretty strong. It moans a little on the french bread dough. The attachments were nice at first but the blade and dough mixer are starting to pit. Not very good for having this only a couple months. Would i buy this product again.....yes. I wish the attachments were better material.

KitchenAid does it again!

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Purchasing this KitchenAid mixer was a "dream come true". It is a powerful, versatile, and critical mixer for any committed cook. The attachments work well, especially with the POWER. The only drawback is that the mixer is not "fun" of small batter size. Nevertheless, it is a worthy investment.

It's Kitchen Aid, what's not to like.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I had my old Kitchen Aid mixer for over 40 years. It was still working but it needs an overhaul. The new one is larger and has a larger bowl. The slide switch has a delay to it that I don't like but I might get use to it. After I ordered it, "The deal of the day" had the same model but different colors for a lot less. Called up to get the discount but the plandemic had just started and I couldn't get help. Mixes five pounds of flour for bread not for the scared.

What experts are saying
Q: QuestionI have had a tilt head for many years but just recently broke. Cannot decide to get another tilt head or the bowl lift. Any opinions on which one to get please
Asked by Lisa.
- A:Answer Lifts are much sturdier. No joint, heavier motor housing, stronger motor all translate to more power and longer life. The lift is less convenient to use than the tilt, but is much more reliable. I've seen thick mixes cause the joint on a lift to wiggle loose, causing the head to wobble back and forth and fail to get an even mix at the edges - not a problem for a lift.

Q: QuestionWhen comparing mixers this unit comes with two beaters. The description states the wire whip, flat beater and dough hook are included. Also didn't see number of watts included in description or compare. Verification of this information would be helpful.

Q: QuestionCan the attachments from a series 5 be used on this one?
Asked by saj.
- A:Answer No. Different bowl sizes need different attachments to get the coverage touching the edges of the bowl. Small attachments for a large bowl won't mix the edges, large attachments for a small bowl will ram into the sides.
