A:AnswerEvery kitchenaid stand mixer made in the past 45 years uses one beater attachment at a time. This comes with 3 attachments. Paddle mixer (spatula edge), whisk, and dough hook. Artisan has a 325 watt electric motor versus the 300 watt here. We have worked with both. There is no appreciable difference in performance.
A:AnswerAfter hours of searching what i have gathered is that this model (which doesn't have a name on the Kitchen Aid website ) is the model below the artisan series but the model above the classic series. It has a 300 watt motor and it does not come with as many attachments as the artisan; however if you buy them separately they are compatible with this model. If you are looking for any additional info just type KSM105GBCMC into google.
A:AnswerThe bowl is glass but you can also buy plastic and other material bowl for it. This mixer also has 10 different speeds which it has in common with other models such as the classic and Artisan series.
A:AnswerIt does similar to the artisan. The only difference is that the artisan actually comes with some of the attachments whereas this model you would have to buy them separately. It comes down to if you want to buy some now with the artisan or buy them all later when you get this model.
A:AnswerThere are printed numbers on the bottom. Then look up: 5 QT Glass Mixer Bowl replaces KitchenAid, W10154769. (this is the number on the bottom of my glass bowl with this model number.) There are options on amazon and also by 3rd party sellers. I had no luck on the kitchenaid website but they have just been out of stock. Hope this helps.
A:Answerno. You would need to buy a power converter. Italy uses 230v at 60 htz. Power in the United States is 120v 60htz. And running it on an converter will likely void the warranty.
