• A:Answer I certainly hope the bowl lifter version is not being discontinued! I consider that to be an indispensable feature on my decades old Pro Line mixer with a 7 quart bowl. If it ever dies it will definitely be replaced with another bowl lifter model. The bowl lifter feature attaches the bowl very rigidly to the lifter frame, ensuring rock solid stability during use with simple detachment when done. My mixer, like many others mentioned in these posts, Was too tall to fit under our 1970's vintage kitchen cabinets when we first bought it. So when we remodeled several years later an important spec was clearance between counter top and upper cabinet bottoms. We specified this at 1/2 inch greater that the height of the mixer. We never store the mixer on the counter top but the clearance is handy when we need to push the mixer back out of the way temporarily during food preparation. The mixer is stored in a large floor-to-ceiling pantry cabinet with four shallow slide-out drawers in the bottom section. Height from the top of the top drawer to the bottom rail of the upper cabinet is, you guessed it, 1/2 inch greater than the height of the mixer. Making the height of the mixer any less than it is would definitely sacrifice utility of the machine.

Q: QuestionCan I use a standard mixing bowl with this model? That way I don't have to wash the bowl that comes with ro mix the frosting or something else

Asked 9 years ago by Roxana.

• A:Answer No. An ordinary bowl would not work with this mixer. The manufacturer bowl is designed with fittings on the side that secure it into place on the mixer. The bowl-lift feature then raises the bowl to the proper level for mixing, where the beaters clear the edge of the bowl at exactly that height and width. You can purchase additional bowls, however.

Q: QuestionI'm comparing between KV25G0xxx (Pro 5 Plus, this one) and KG25H0xxx (Pro HD). Pro HD is claimed to be all metal, but it's cheaper than this Pro 5 Plus model. Also, I can't really find a downside for Pro HD, but why it's cheaper?

Q: QuestionIs this the best one made is this the strongest one add photos and what color that's all

Asked 8 years ago by Less.

• A:Answer Kitchenaid makes larger and more powerful mixers like their 600 Pro series, 6000 series and their commercial series mixers such as the 800. This mixer is the introduction to the Pro line series. Their motors are all metal and if the motor over heats it shuts off to protect the motor before it over heats. If this happens, you have to keep the mixer off for 45 minutes to cool it down.

Q: QuestionIs this machine a better option than the Classic Stand Mixer? Isn't it better that the bowl is supported on a solid flat surface?

Asked 8 years ago by Eureka.

This question was asked about the related product: KitchenAid - Professional 5 Plus Series 5 Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer - KV25G0XSL - Silver

• A:Answer The standard kitchen aid mixer, is a tilt head, that is very heavy. This is to help keep the mixer head from bouncing around, while mixing stuff such as bread dough, or cookie dough. With the bowl lift mixer, the base is a little longer and wider, to allow a better foot print, and the bowl lift system, locks in place, to hold the bowl in place while mixing. I have mixed bread dough, with NO movement from the mixer, or the bowl.

Q: QuestionDoes this mixer come with metal or plastic gears?

Asked 4 years ago by Bird.

This question was asked about the related product: KitchenAid - Professional 5 Plus Series 5 Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer - KV25G0XSL - Silver

• A:Answer I believe the newer ones come with metal gears. Easy way to tell is if it says it has the smart detect thing where it automatically shuts off when the motor is overloaded, then it has metal gears. The plastic gears are the alternative to that so they shred before the motor gets damaged when it's overloaded.
