Excellent l don't know why l didn't buy it earlier..very happy!

It's great .works perfectly. Now wont have a problem baking.. lol

This stand mixer is a great versitile unit. It comes with the wisk, dough hook, and paddle plus a large mixing bowl. I've used this mixer to make sauces, mix spices in to meats as well as making some dough and it did a great job on all of it with out getting bogged down.The ingredients were mixed thoroughly too. The one draw back I don't understsand is that only the wisk and bowl are dishwasher safe. I'm not sure why since the wisk is the most delicate because of it's design. The attachments connect easy enough that you don't need to fight them but they aren't loose enough to come off when the unit is running. The splashguard comes in handy for mixing sauces and other ingredients that can splash. I definitely recommend this stand mixer for anyone who likes to cook on any level, but the unit is very heavy of course so you'll want to pick a mostly premanent spot for it to sit on your counter. I'm looking forward to the holidays when I can make all kinds of delicious cookies, cakes and bread.

Excellent from A to Z. We’ve made bread and cookies dough. It came out exactly as expected. Ty

My daughter loves this!! Use it all the time to make different pastries.

I am not a fan. I did have a kitchen aide professional that broke so I got this thinking it would be just as good. My biggest problem with this is that it moves all over my counter. I make homemade bread 2-3 times a week and when it is mixing the dough I have to hold the mixer in place or it will “walk” away. The other day I got distracted when it was mixing dough and when I looked back the only thing keeping it from falling off the counter was the cord that was plugged in. I don’t want a mixer that I have to stand there for the whole time it’s mixing. I plan to return this.

Good product; good value; shipped to store timely; ease pick up

Looks - It is compact and will fit easily in any corner of your kitchen counter without occupying too much space. It is not too heavy and you will be able to move it back and forth to adjust it accordingly while you are using it. User friendly - It is pretty easy to use. The lock/unlock buttons are not neither too tight nor too flimsy. The attachments can be easily fixed to the knob and removed without much hassle. Parts - There is a lid with a small opening which is supposed to help you to add things inside the mixer while not letting the ingredients fly out when the mixer is on. But I did not see much use in this as the opening is not positioned right. While the blades are moving, it restricts you from adding ingredients inside the mixer. So I had to take the lid/covering off and add the ingredients directly into the bowl. I had to ensure to reduce the speed of the mixture while adding other ingredients. Whisk is pretty good. It beats the ingredients pretty well and seems to be sturdy too. I had to beat about 6 eggs for my cake until the mixture got foamy. The whisk did a pretty good job and gave me the right consistency I was looking for. It works well in low, medium and high speeds. Paddle attachment works well on high speed. But on low speed, it hardly churns or mixes the ingredients. Some recipes demand for the ingredients to be mixed on low speed. It might be a challenge to use the paddle attachment on low speed as it coats all the ingredients to the sides of the bowl and just keeps rotating in the middle of the bowl. But on high speed it does the job right. I made butter cream frosting for my cake and it started out slow as I had to stop and scrape the sides of the bowl every now and then while running it on low speed. But once I could get it to high speed it worked well. Dough hooks seem to be of good quality. They also work well from medium-high speed but on low speed the same batter which gets mixed initially keeps getting churned constantly while the remaining dough gets mixed only if the speed is increased. The mixing bowl is sturdy and deep enough to hold a good amount of ingredients. However it would be more useful if there was an additional bowl provided with the set. Most of the recipes have more than one part to it. Different ingredients might be required to be beaten separately for the same recipe. Under such situations having just one bowl makes it a cumbersome process to finish one part, wash the bowl, dry it and use it for the next part and repeat. Speed - There are up to 8 levels of speed. I did not have to go through till the highest level for the maximum speed I needed for beating the ingredients. Speed is pretty good from medium-high. But for low speeds, especially the first 2, it is as good as keeping the beater at 0. For low speed you will have to go up to at least ‘3’ to get the job done.

It works like a charm. I love everything about it, and how quiet it is.

I've wanted a stand mixer for awhile but other similar products on the market like Kitchen Aid can be quite pricey compared to this alternative. Other mixers are also quite bulky and this one is a bit smaller and better for people who are working with less counter top space. This mixer has a 5.3 quart metal mixing bowl and has the tilt head lock feature so you can easily add ingredients while baking. There are seven speed settings so it's great for all types of cooking or baking. The grey style is perfect for any kitchen design as it matches with stainless steel or black appliances. It's also compatible with different attachments so you can make the most out of your mixer. The box also includes: the mixing bowl, a dough hook, a wire whisk, a flat beater, and a pouring shield to avoid messes. I found it extremely easy to use and it's effective for things like fluffing egg whites or baking doughs. It has a 'soft start' function on every mixing speed so you don't have to worry about flour poofing out or liquids spinning out of the bowl. The build is sleek and sturdy so it's great for even the clumsiest of cooks.

This is my first mixer to own and I have to say its been a pleasant experience to use. Traditionally I’ve mixed most things manually and have always wanted a less tiring and tedious way of doing that. This GE mixer has exceeded my expectations for just that. The mixer is a high quality from the second you open the box, and quite heavy. The color is neutral, not too flashy, which I think will be a good fit for most kitchens. First things on my list to try out with this mixer was mashed potatoes and brownies. I guess I’m not familiar with how wattage motor strength compares for mixers, but this 350 watt motor didn’t look phased at all while mixing and mashing. For a newbie such as myself, its was straight forward and easy to use. The knob controls the 7 speeds, the arm level lock lifts the unit up, and attachments go on super easy. The bowl, being stainless steel, is easy to clean and locks into place with a slight turn. It can be put in the dishwasher along with the whisk attachment, but the other parts need to be hand washed. The bowl is also 5.3 quarts which seems to be plenty large for my needs. The bowl lid is a nice addition as it helps prevent splatter and provides an easy way to add ingredients without having to lift the mixing head or even stop the mixing. Next on the list is making dough for some homemade bread and I look forward to that experience. Overall it runs well, fairly quiet for having strong motor, and is easy to clean and manage. I’d recommend this to anyone looking to purchase a mixer.

This GE stand mixer is better than I expected, especially with all the other competition out there. The dough hook works well for making bread and pizza dough. This mixer has enough power to make pretty much any type of dough you want, no matter how tough or unyielding it may be. It's surprisingly quiet. 7 speeds instead of the 10 you see on others, however 10 on this machine would be overkill. The 7 different speeds is more than enough. In addition to doughs, it makes lovely meringue. 3rd party attachments fit and work well. With a grinder attachment you cna make homemade ground meats- Beef, pork, poultry, game meats, etc. Plenty of power to run it. You can even make sausage. A 3rd party spiralizer also works well on this for making veggie noodles. The GE mixer is surprisingly heave at nearly 20 pounds, but that keeps it from moving around when the mixing bowl is unbalanced. It's well built enough you could probably use it every day for years. The main complaint is the whisk has plastic for attaching it on the mixer. My concern is it may break over time. There's a depression in the bottom of the mixing bowl that doesn't seem to always get hit by the beaters, leaving some of what you're mixing on the bottom and dry. It's not much, but it is annoying. I'd still recommend this mixer. It's easy to use, just the right size and perfect for all the things you could use a stand mixer for.

Works like charm and looks like a million bucks! We are very happy with our mixer and would highly recommend it!

This GE stand mixer is great. It is nice and compact for storage and very simple to use. It comes with some mixing attachments, a lid for the bow with a hole big enough to pour your ingridients in with out the fear of ir splashing out. It is very simple to clean. It does have an auto shut off just incase you forget to turn it off. However the granite gray is very nice color, the bow is not excessively large so it is great for those smaller baking needs. It is very simple to use as it is just a turn of a knob. It is very nicely packed and very secure. It does have the extra front port for additional attachements such as a pasta maker. I am overall very satified with this mixer amd it is the perfect size. The top portion lifts up to make it easy to get the mixing bowl out. So if you are in the market for a small enough yet powerful mixer thia would be a great choice for your kitchen, and you should not have an issue finding a great storage place for the times you do not use it. It would be nice if it came with additional items but like i said i am very satified.

Literal Garbage, Cheap plastic fitting broke about the second time I used it

The GE stand mixer is a well-built, heavy duty machine ready to take on your best recipes. The mixer arrived securely packaged, and the first thin I noticed was the weight of the box. Unboxing revealed a sleek silver cast aluminum machine, that feels very solid. the attachments and bowl also appear well made and have a solid feel. Preparing for first use was just a quick wash of the bowl and attachments with soap and water, and a wipe down of the rest of the machine with a damp cloth. The top then easily tilts back and attachments are inserted with a push up and quarter turn. The bowl locks to the base in a similar fashion, by just indexing the pins and a slight twist to secure. The first thing we tried was whipped cream. We installed the whisk, added our heavy cream, vanilla, and sugar, and gradually increased speed to high (7). The speed knob feels substantial, and gives a satisfying click for each setting. The motor accelerates smoothly and quickly whipped our cream into fluffy goodness ready to top a key lime pie. Next we did a heavier cake batter. Again the mixer handled it without a hiccup, and mixed the batter to perfect, smooth consistency. The thicker batter had no noticeable effect on the speed of the mixer. I was hoping to try a bread recipe before posting this, but time got away from me... but I cant imagine any drop off in performance. One note. The instructions use the words attachment and accessory in a way that can lead to some confusion. Everything that comes in the box attaches to the bottom of the mixer head, and the "attachment release" is not used with any of them. Other than the slightly confusing instructions, I thin GE has designed a beautiful product, and I don't hesitate to recommend it.

My wife does a lot of baking, so a stand mixer is important to her, she has another mixer – the famous and more expensive well-known brand which she was gifted. When I had the opportunity to get the GE Stand Mixer, I took it, the Granite Grey color is appealing in modern day monochromatic kitchens. If you leave your mixer out and you have cheery, bright kitchen and prep area this may not fit in with the aesthetics. In any case on to unboxing and using the mixer, first thing you notice is this is fairly considerable in size and weight. This unit is built to last, and it feels like it. The fairly lightweight 5.3-quart bowl is nice with a handle attached to the side and a lid. What I found very appealing about this mixer was the lock feature, which prevents the top portion of the mixer from slamming down when you have the mixing attachments partially out of the bowl. Controls are simple with a basic dial controlling the mixing speed with seven different settings, nothing advanced, just does the trick Pros: - Love the lock in place feature when stand is in upright position, so it does not slam down. - Dial makes is easy to set the speed of mixer. - Bowl is light easy to handle. - Nice and quiet when running. Cons: - Not enough room to add ingredients as you go on the side of the bowl (like eggs). Adding dry ingredients like flour while using the plastic shield requires you to turn off mixer, then add shield. Slot could be a little bit wider to add dry goods to bowl. - Needs an attachment with a spatula added. Ingredients do not combine as well without one.

The GE stand mixer is a great kitchen appliance that does its job in a very satisfying manner. Even though there are more “popular” products out there that a lot of people vouch for, I found this GE mixer can do similar things with the same capability. The first thing I noticed is how well-built this is. GE went with a “traditional” design, and thus it has a large footprint and carries a lot of heft. However, that also means when using it, the mixer is very stable. In a kitchen environment I’ll always take an all metal appliance instead of a slick plastic one. The accessories that come with it covers all the regular operation I need - both the dough hook and the flat beater are coated, so cleaning them is quite easy. A wire whisk is there too. The quite large 5.3-qt stainless steel bowl has a handle, and can be locked in place to the mixer base. The locking is not as tight as I’d prefer, but it gets the job done. A plastic bowl splash guard with an integrated feed port makes life easier in some cases - this is the only flimsy part I found in the entire package. One good thing is that an accessory port in the front is compatible with 3rd party attachments. The controls are fairly straight-forward. The tilt-head locks into place in both up and down condition, and when unlocked the head can be moved with one-hand which is super convenient. A single dial controls the 350-W motor in 7 steps. For my needs so far I haven’t pushed past 4 though. The “mixing” operation is smooth - the motor seems to work fine with mixing and egg whisking work, and the slow-speed dough making was done perfectly. The motor is not the quietest out there, but it’s not deafening by any means. As I mentioned before, the mixer is very stable. Cleaning up is not that hard - only the bowl and the whisk are dishwasher safe. Everything else needs to be hand washed/cleaned. The beater, even though it’s coated, is sometimes a bit engaging to clean. Overall, I’m very satisfied with the GE stand mixer. It’s simple to use, and churns through whatever is thrown at it with ease. The large dimension and weight maybe something that needs to matched with the overall kitchen aesthetics, but for me it fit’s in nicely with my other appliances.

If you are looking for a good stand mixer without dishing out a lot of money, then this is for you. I have an expensive popular named stand mixer but since I do a lot of baking I decided to test this out. I was not disappointed. This mixer comes with a 5.3 quart bowl, a flat beater, dough hook, wire whisk and a pouring shield. All of this is perfect to get started on any baking journey. It has 7 speed settings and an accessory port for all kinds of third party attachments you could purchase separately. The mixer has a tilt-back head and moves easily with the lever. Just move the lever and the top tilts back to add your ingredients, scrape the bowl, etc. and it holds in place. You need to move the lever again to have the top tilt back down to mix your ingredients. This comes with a powerful 350 watt motor which takes care of most baking needs and is made of sturdy die cast metal, so it should last for many years to come. I must say that in comparing this to the popular more expensive model and they are very similar. I could do all of the same things as the other mixer I have and the attachments even fit on this mixer and work with it! I really recommend this stand mixer, especially for those that want a good mixer for the price. Since I intend to do a lot more baking, having an extra mixer will definitely come in handy.

I definitely want to start by saying that as a baker’s daughter, and baker myself GE really did a great job with this one. There are other name brand mixers that we all know, and GE has entered with a great alternative, and great overall product. Out of the box you’ll nice it comes with a pretty large 5.3 qt bowl that it included. Plenty of space for your ingredients to thrive. It also comes with a flat beater, wire whisk, dough hook and my personal favorite a pouring lid! That was a first to me, usually it’s an additional attachment you have to pay for. It comes with 7 speeds, and pretty powerful motor. I baked a batch of Leto cookies, and had no sloshing of ingredients, and the batter really was mixed to perfection and smooth. The operation of the mixer is very easy, and used friendly. I let my 65 year old mother use it as well after gifting her another brand years ago, and she also enjoyed it and had no problems operating it. I’m very pleased overall with this mixer and I personally haven’t experienced any cons. If you’re looking for a great, high quality mixer GE has provided a great option and you won’t be disappointed.
