KitchenAid - Professional 5 Plus Series Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer - White-on-White

I have been wanting one of these KitchenAid mixers for a very long time. Thanks to the nearly 50%-off sale that BestBuy was running, I picked one up. The mixer is solid, the color is great, and the convenience these mixers bring to cooking and baking is huge. We haven't even scratched the surface on what this thing can do, nor have we picked up any of the attachments that add even more capabilities. The one drawback, if it can even be called a drawback, is that this model is not the tilt-head type, it is the bowl-lift type. Make sure you read the description before ordering if you are wanting the tilt-head.

This Kitchenaid out of the box was was such a gorgeous color, better than I thought it would be. The flat beater, the wire whip and dough hook are all substantial, perfect for the generous sized 5qt bowl. It has a Powerknead dough hook!! What more do you want!! OK fine- it has a powerful 450 watt motor, a direct drive transmission and 10 mixing speeds this baby can handle some flour! The only thing this beauty can't 'beat' is the price!! Thanks Best Buy!! I'm very happy with her :-))

The disadvantage of taking up counter space is more than compensated by the units performance and durability. I placed the mixer on my portable dishwasher and place a shelf above it to hold the basket full of all the attachments. The basic attachment kit is a must if you like cooking. However heed the warning that the wire whip is not dishwasher safe. I forgot and put it in the dishwasher and the finish came off. Now I remember to hand wash and dry completely to avoid rust.

I purchased this Kitchenaid Professional 5 Plus mixer based solely on Kitchenaid's reputation. I was very excited until I began to unbox the mixer. The attachments were painted white and the paint was already chipping. Imagine that in my food! I didn't waste my time unboxing the mixer itself after I saw the attachments. It was returned immediately.

The mixer has more power than ones I had looked at in stores and for just a few dollars more. However with my reward zone reward money it actually cost less. The order was processed and delivered when promised even amide the busy Christmas holiday shopping season.

I have wanted a Kitchen Aide Mixer for years and finally was able to purchase this one. I am looking forward to the holidays to be able to do some great baking including breads and cookies! The mixer will make the work much easier and will make my finished products much better!

I've been wanting one of these since I can remember and I can honestly say that I was not disappointed with this purchase. I've only used it a few times so far, but it is more than worth it and will definitely come in handy in the next month or two when I start doing all my holiday baking.

This is it. This is the mixer that everyone wants and deserves. Is it a bit pricey? Yes. Is it worth the price? Yes. This mixer is all you will ever need, in whatever size you decide to get. It is strong, and well built. This should be on every kitchen wish list.
