    Very powerful, it hasn't had a problem with anything I've made in it, even making bread was easy for it to handle. The half speed setting is AMAZING for mixing ingredients slowly so nothing spills, it's very heavy and high quality, the bowl is very big and it makes it easy to make large batches of things. Highly recremend this kitchen aid if you make a lot of different food or bake, it makes everything way more fun and easier

    This absolutely raised our cookie game. My daughter went from a non-cook to a cottage baker in less than a year. The lift mixer takes up less room on the counter because the lid does not tilt back. It is powerful, efficient and a true daily use appliance. The color is beautiful It is easy to clean and it does not show spots. Overall, the best gift that I have probably ever given to my daughter. No regrets. This was a great buy!!

    Love this mixer! The Empire Red is adds a nice cool factor to my already beautiful kitchen. It is BIG, so make sure you have counter space and high cabinets it can tuck in or under. It’s literally inspired me to craft homemade breads, cookies, and brownies. Just used it to whip up a homemade cheese ball for a holiday gathering. I’ve wanted one for a long time and I got this culinary delight on sale. No regrets! Thanks Best Buy!

    A Game-Changer for Home Bakers!

    The KitchenAid 5.5 Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer in Ink Blue is hands down one of the best investments I’ve made for my kitchen. First off, the color is stunning—a rich, deep ink blue that adds a bold, modern touch to my countertop. It’s not just a mixer; it’s a statement piece. Performance-wise, this machine is a powerhouse. The bowl-lift design gives it incredible stability, especially when mixing heavier doughs like bread or pizza. The 5.5-quart capacity is perfect for both everyday baking and larger batches during the holidays. It handled double batches of cookie dough without breaking a sweat. What I really appreciate is how quiet and smooth it runs, even at higher speeds. The attachments are easy to switch out, and cleanup is straightforward. I also love the versatility—there’s a wide range of additional attachments you can get to turn this into a pasta maker, food grinder, and more. If you're serious about baking or just want to level up your kitchen game, this mixer is worth every penny. Stylish, sturdy, and reliable—it’s everything I hoped it would be. Highly recommend!

    Absolutely Worth It! This stand mixer has completely upgraded my kitchen experience! It’s powerful and stable, even with heavy doughs — no shaking or moving around. The mixing speeds are perfect and it blends ingredients evenly every time. The bowl is spacious enough for large batches, and surprisingly, the machine is quieter than most mixers I’ve tried. I’ve used it for pizza dough, cookies, and even cakes — and everything comes out perfect. Super easy to clean too. Definitely one of my best purchases!

    The bowl-lift mixer was an excellent value when we decided to upgrade from our old mixer. The size fit well in our builder grade kitchen (this is probably a big factor for those upgrading from artisan or classic like we did). The stronger motor will make it easier to mix tamale masa (dough). Best Buy even had the right color and the drive-up service was smooth.

    Our old 4.5 qt Kitchenaid from the 1950s wasn't big enough. So we bought this one with the meat grinder attachment. If you have never made your own hamburger at home, you owe it to yourself to give it a try. The new KitchenAid handled the grinding job with ease. As a bonus, the Contour Silver color is gorgeous (my photo does not do it justice)

    Much bigger, and more powerful than the last one we purchased! Wish we had purchased it sooner! My wife loves it! All of the attachments from the smaller one work with this one too! Anyone in the market for the smaller size just let us know, they are bulletproof machines! :-)

    Great mixing bowl size. Made Divinity with the wire wisk while running the mixer on max speed. Machine held up and didn't overheat. Plus made pizza dough with dough hook and kneaded beautifully.
