What can I say…. I love it! My son also enjoys using this when baking his cakes

This was an amazing gift looks beautiful in my kitchen and makes cooking easier.

I have a Kitchen Aid mixer just like this one that I have had for many years. It still works great and I love it. My in-laws and my husband and I are giving this to my sister-in-law for Christmas. She will love it. I use mine for making numerous loaves of pumpkin bread, cakes and cookies at Christmas. I use it throughout the year, but at Christmas the most. This machine is a work horse.

KitchenAid Professional 5 Plus Series--who knew i would be buying kitchen stuff from best buy! was on sale & got $200 off. this is my second kitchenaid. last one lasted ~ 10 years.

I got into baking this year and quickly found myself wanted a stand mixer to knead bread dough easier. This by far has let me try so many more bread types so much quicker. Easy to use and clean.

I have been wanting one for so long yet the sticker price held me back. Now that I got one, well the family, everyone has something they want to cook, bake, and even make slime. I cannot wait until shopping for the attachments to open up even more options for use. This will be a great work horse for all my kitchen needs and provides confidence to be able to tackle more homemade meals.

I never thought I would buy a Kitchenaid mixer until they came out with the lift model. This is very tall but, fortunately, I don't have to tilt it so it fits under my cabinet. I have a moderate kitchen and this isn't the elephant I was afraid it would be. It takes up its fair share but the corner of my counter never gets used anyway. I love that its a solid piece and there's no joints to wobble and jump and lock and unlock. One lever lowers the bowl and that same lever locks the bowl. I've seen people struggle with removing and snapping on the bowl but it actually goes on and comes off with ease and no jolt if you put one side peg on and then press the bowl inward and snap it down over the other peg instead of trying to force the back of the bowl down or yank it up after both pegs are in. I also love that these are easy enough to repair as they age and internal gears need replaced. I have one criticism and its one that really irritates me. Finding kitchenaid parts for specific bowls can be a maze and, in some cases, a financial risk. I don't like that every bowl doesn't include a pouring shield. I know it's for "pouring" but I think its a safety feature, considering the power of this thing. Hunting for accessories and replacements can be inconvenient and maddening but having to hunt for safety features is just absurd and shouldn't happen when you are buying a quality product. The guards should snap on securely and come with the bowl to keep fingers from being sucked into the beater just because you have fingers near a powerful motor. If you do find the right cover, it just sits on the bowl and is easily knocked out of position, increasing the chance of you instinctively rescuing it and getting too close to the beater. That's truly my only complaint about this product. Anyone that has 16 and 1/2 inches in height between countertop and cabinets and an empty corner they haven't filled would be able to accomodate this. Its convenient, straight forward, doesn't require a lot of hand strength if you put the bowl on and take it off without trying to pop it over the back piece and it does have some cool attachments that are easy enough to find, although there's only one that appeals to me. I'm completely satisfied with my purchase and consider myself a routine cook but not a relentless cook. If you cook enough to have any kind of stand mixer, this is a nice one to have.

It is heavy but that is what keeps this powerful mixer from moving around on the countertop with a heavy load. I recommend dropping the bowl with the lift/lower mechanism prior to adding additional ingredients to allow more room around the bowl and beaters. Remember not to put attachments in the dishwasher, hand wash to keep them looking like new or they will get an ugly dull finish.

Easy to use and powerful. Fairly heavy so doesn't move around in use but also something to consider as might want to leave it in a location instead of moving it frequently.

We have been using hand mixers, and a very old bread mixer, that was hand crank. My husband saw this in the store, and said he was tired of us using archaic devices, and said this would make life better. Was not too sure about that statement, but now that we have used this several times, I must say that we were using archaic devices, and now wonder why we waited so long to get one.

This is a great mixer. It has professional quality, and the fact the bowl is in an area to where it is not sitting on the bottom is great. Comes with a great assortment of attachments. Beautiful color which matched perfectly with other accessories in kitchen.

This is a great mixer, durable and powerful. It can mix small or large batches in no time!

Just in time for the hollydaze! Haven’t used it yet but it looks great! Packed well. Can’t wait to multi task while the machine does the work. Yeahhhhh! And more importantly zoodles! And someone else to slice the veggies and grate the cheese? Wow! My new buddy! I heard on the news today a lady married her chandelier. Well, this mixer sounds more useful than my husband. Just saying.

This is a great mixer and just the right size and power to Do about anything

Love it perfect for baking whipping and just great quality product for any type of baking aspect in life. Love the easy access to mive the bowl in and out especially with it being so heavy.

I love the KitchenAid 5 quart mixer. I had it in white and wanted to change the decor in my kitchen so I gave the other one to my daughter and purchased this one. Works great.

KitchenAid makes the best mixers: stylish, durable and powerful enough to make a bread.

This is my very first KitchenAid Mixer. I have previously used others and always wanted to get myself one but didn't want to spend that much money. The Black Friday sale on this was incredible and I can't wait to use it! Definitely, wash the utensils though very well because it has some kind of film on it which will turn things black if not washed for the first time properly.

The mixer is easy to use and very versatile if you get the other attachments. It is heavy duty and great quality. I don't have much counter space so I don't keep it out unless I am going to use it and the machine is pretty heavy.

Love it easy to mix my masa for tamales and making cooking easier
