Customer Ratings & Reviews

Not only is this Mixer beautiful and adds a pop of color to the kitchen, it is a work horse. Great addition to my kitchen & makes baking and food prep a breeze. So glad I purchased vs using my old hand mixer

This is my first Kitchen aide mixer and must say it works well. More power than my older mixer and makes my homemade read with ease.

The first order I received the machine was faulty. It was easy to do an in-store exchange. The item wasn't in stock so I had it shipped to my home. It arrivedn a few days later and on time. So far the new has worked beautifully. Taking all the hard work out of baking. It has really mixed different dessert recipes, kneaded bread dough perfectly and whipped mouse and frosting wonderfully. All why I simply watched and waited. I was on the fence for awhile but I'm glad I finally made the purchase.

Got this for my wife for Xmas, she absolutely loves it! High quality and very easy to use. It came with three attachments but there are a ton more available for anything you can think of making with it.

Was a Christmas present and was received with surprise a joy. Make less sound than other models. And has a lot more power!

This mixer seems to be built to the same quality level as the 20+ year old 4.5 qt model it supplements, and will eventually replace, in my kitchen. Having to mount the bowl and raise it rather than raising the motor assembly takes some getting used to but it works just fine. It comes with a corkscrew-type dough 'hook', which doesn't work for small loads; an L-shaped hook is not available for it. Mixer is very stable and takes up only a little more room than the old one.

This mixer is slightly larger than the one that doesn’t have the bowl lift but the bowl lift actually seems to be a more sturdy feature. There are 11 mixing speeds which is really nice for everything from my making pizza dough to whipped cream. It’s the perfect appliance when you need an extra hand or two in the kitchen but also just enjoy being in the kitchen working alone. I love how KitchenAid makes different colors and designs to fit not only the need in the kitchen but also the aesthetic. The matte black and stainless look fits right into my kitchen. It came with three accessories and recipes already but I have ordered a few more and learned how to use them with the easy instructions and recipes that come with each item. This mixer does have less options for changing out the bowl because of the way you sit the bowl in place. There are two holes in either side of the bowl which fit over two studs and behind the bowl it clips in also. (This creates the stability I mentioned previously). I know some people like the ability to change out the bowls or have multiple on hand so definitely keep this in mind if you are that person. I personally recommend this product if you are the one hosting large holiday meals and the smaller version just won’t cut it. You can make small batches still but the extra quart with this one compared to the smaller one is definitely a plus for me because of the larger meals I cook a few times a year.

The mixer is very good. This is my first mixer and it was pretty easy to use. Has lots of power and does not seem to have any issues with thick dough that I have made. The mixer has quality components and seems durable. I might have chosen the tilt head as I feel it might be easier to put the ingredients in, but I still am very happy with this mixer.

It saved my arm, my daughter and I made 34 boxes of Christmas cookies. All different kinds and without this machine, we would’ve been so sore. Highly recommend. It works amazing.

The KitchenAid 5.5 Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer works really well. It feels strong and mixes doughs and batters smoothly. The bowl-lift mechanism is a bit different at first, but you get used to it quickly. It’s a bit heavy to move around, but overall, I’m happy with it. Great quality and looks nice too.

This was a birthday gift for my wife and she absolutely loves it! The color is beautiful and the upgraded size and functionality are amazing conveniences. We are excited to purchase all of the available attachments!

Great addition to my baking show case. This is to use. I have one without the lift bowl. This one helps to make sure everything is mix in the bottom of the bowl.

I was skeptical at buying this model because the last one i had broke shortly after i purchased then the replacement did as well so i went another route. I do alot of baking in my spare time and need something to last. This was my savior. The big bowl is great to cut down on multiple batches and all the accessories are tough and well made. I havent owned it for long but it has definitely outmatched it predecessor for sure in every way. I recommend this highly if you can spare the extra money. The biggest draw back is the price of 450 so i recommend getting it during black friday. I got it for 299.99!

One of the most favorite items that I have purchased in the last few years. A great price, quality, ease of use and looks stylish on my kitchen counter.

very easy to set ip and very powerful and edau to wash. i can make 10 people desert

The mixer performs well with this new design and this is a more practical approach to engage with the necessary steps with your baking. The tilt design could become a challenge in certain situations where the mix can spill. But that issue is fixed with this new one.

This is a robust, nice looking mixer! The bowl seats well into position, it takes some force but then you know it's secure. It's quiet and operates smoothly. Overall it's a great mixer.

This mixer is powerful and on the quieter side. Having the arms lift makes it easier to remove the mixing bowl if your hands are oily. I make a lot of bread and pizza dough, so that fact that I can easily remove the bowl is a huge plus. The only drawback for me, is that it does not come with the pouring shield. Other than that, this really is perfect. It's also worth stating that my local Best Buy got my order ready for me with in thirty minutes of purchase online.

My last mixer is from the 80s or it may have even been older from my grandmother. It works like a charm but i needed a new mixing attachment. Decided to order a new one instead. Eneded up ordering the new attachment anyway and goving it to a friend. Who loves it by the way. These mixers never die. I love the new one, too. Much quieter than the old one. I expect to use it forever. Highly recommend for all uses. Have almost all of the attachments. Mine is used for baking, dough, shredding, meat grinding, ice cream, snow cones.

Love it!! Makes everything easy and I've taught my grown children how to make bread and home made pasta. They are very excited and have made their own... (Not to mention Cheesecakes) I own one and have bought two more as gifts for them.
