The only thing i dont like and agree with is the one in store that was on display was red and since they was out at store i agree too received one through mail and it was silver not red

Great product and amazing for pastry I really love it.

Ordered new & just unboxed it. However, it came with what looked like icing smeared on the outside.

I purchased this for a vacation home. My 30 year old KA mixer is more solid. The edges of the thin, flat, non-ergonomic handle on the new mixing bowl are so sharp the I want to wrap the handle because it digs into my skin. (I’ve attached pics to show the difference between my old mixing bowl with the superior handle and taller sides). Also, the new beater that is coated has bumps and flaws under the coating.

My wife used this less than 10 times, and in less than a year the teeth from the internal gears crumbled inside the machine. Every time she was baking she never put the speed above 3, which is even more upsetting considering the outrages price. If anyone is looking to get this for their significant other, high price does not mean high quality. I just hope none of the metal shavings dropped into our food! ⚠️

Got it 50% off for Black Friday. I'm glad I did because the mixing paddle started chipping on its second use. Hope it's not in the sourdough I was making. Hook and paddle both of bubbles and cracks in the ceramic coating. Never been dropped or handled rough. Hopefully there's a stainless replacement out there. This should not be happening in a $500 product.

The KitchenAid 5.5 Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer has been a game-changer in my kitchen. It’s incredibly powerful and handles heavy doughs and large batches effortlessly. The bowl-lift design feels sturdy and stable, even at high speeds. The mixer is not only functional but also beautiful—the Contour Silver finish adds a sleek, professional look to my countertop. The 5.5-quart bowl is perfect for baking in bulk, and the included attachments (like the paddle and whisk) are high quality and easy to clean. One thing to note is that it’s a bit heavy, so it’s best to leave it on the counter rather than moving it often. But that weight also reflects how solid and well-built it is. If you love baking or cooking from scratch, this mixer is totally worth the investment. It saves time, performs beautifully, and looks amazing.

This stand mixer is absolutely excellent. It is powerful, quiet, and works smoothly for all types of baking and mixing. The build quality feels very solid and durable, and it handles both light and heavy dough with ease. It saves so much time in the kitchen and makes baking more enjoyable. I am very satisfied with this purchase and would highly recommend it.

This stand mixer is simply incredible. It is very powerful, quiet and easy to use. I love how smoothly it mixes dough, creams and kneads liquids. It saves so much time in the kitchen and makes baking so much more enjoyable. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves to cook and bake.

What’s Good 1. Big Capacity, Heavy Duty Mixing The 7-quart bowl is large: in real tests people have used it to make ~13 dozen cookies, knead over 8.5 lbs of bread dough, or mash 7.5 lbs of potatoes in one go.  This means less batch dividing, which saves time. If you often bake for large groups or double/triple recipes, that’s a major plus.  2. Sturdiness & Stability Because it’s a bowl-lift design (versus a tilt-head), it locks the bowl more solidly in place, which helps with heavy doughs. The unit is heavy (so it doesn’t wander or vibrate much under load).  3. Power and Versatility It has a powerful motor, capable of handling demanding tasks (kneading, whipping, etc.) without overheating. It also offers an expanded speed range, including a half-speed (“½ speed”) for more delicate work (folding in ingredients, egg whites, etc.).  The mix of attachments is useful: flat beater, flex-edge beater, whisk, dough hook, pouring shield, etc. Some designs reduce how much manual scraping is needed thanks to bowl-scraping edges.  4. Design / Usability Despite its size, several reviewers say it doesn’t take up as much counter space as you might expect.  The bowl-lift mechanism is considered more stable and more durable for heavy usage. 

Excellent quality & design that you can always count on from KitchenAid! I love the new options & all the different attachments you can add, very easy to use! The tilt head & large bowl makes sure you get everything in the mix & having a gentle folding option is beyond fantastic! I highly recommend this brand & design to anyone!

Strong, versatile, well made. Just overall a wonderful addition to the kitchen. Saves time, makes things a lot easier. Plus, it looks great on the counter top.
