From professional chefs to aspiring novices, no kitchen is complete without a KitchenAid Artisan Stand Mixer. These versatile machines can knead bread, mix cake batter and whip up a delectable cream topping without the cook breaking a sweat. Additional accessories can also create anything from sausages to homemade pastas and with an extra mixing bowl, an entire meal can be made with no fuss and minimal mess.

About This Great Mixer

In multiple eye-catching colors, it is designed to look beautiful in any kitchen. However, this is a case of form meets function. With 10 mixing speeds that range from a slow stir to a fast whip, recipes can be created by simply adding the ingredients and turning on the mixer. The 5 qt stainless steel bowl locks onto the base to prevent messes and a flat beater, wire whip, dough hook and pouring shield are included.

They have been so successful since the original introduction that the original attachments will fit a modern mixer. This success has made this Artisian Mixer a staple in any well stocked kitchen.

KitchenAid Artisian Mixer Care

To care for your KitchenAid Mixer, simply wipe down the unit as needed. This portion of the machine should never be submersed in water. The work bowl is dishwasher safe and the attachments should be washed in warm soapy water. To prevent overheating, unplug the appliance when not in use. The attachments should also be cleaned immediately after use to prevent rusting or damage. There is a 1 year hassle free warranty if the product should fail, an 800 number to call for problems and there is live support on the KitchenAid website.

5.0 out of 5 stars "What are you waiting for??"

"love this thing! I have friends who've had KitchenAid mixers for years and they've always raved about their quality and durability. Well, I finally went for it and I have absolutely no regrets. You want to talk about a solid piece of kitchen machinery? This is the epitome of what "Made in America" used to mean! Unlike all the cheapo mixers out there, I'm completely confident that this thing will even outlast ME! The only problem is now I'm wondering why I waited so long!"

"This may help some of you - I read a review somewhere in which the reviewer gave this mixer a poor rating because it left dry ingredients in the bottom of the bowl - read the instruction booklet, people. It clearly states that if this occurs (or if the attachments scrape the bowl), there is an adjustment screw that raises or lowers the mixing assembly. I had to slightly lower mine and it now incorporates everything into the mix. The KitchenAid mixers are well worth the money....or you can keep buying junk mixers every couple years...the choice is yours"

5.0 out of 5 stars "Best Mixer Ever! Love, Love, Love it! A+"

"This KitchenAid mixer is an excellent investment! I just love mine! The dough hook attachment is the greatest invention ever. No more kneading! I used this wonderful machine to make 4 pounds of Pizza Geina dough without breaking a sweat. Add your ingredients, turn it on and it does the rest! It has a very powerful motor and every part of this mixer is excellent quality and well made. It is simple to lock in the mixing bowl and it is also a breeze to clean. The different attachments are very easy to attach and remove. It would be impossible not to love it! Did I mention how easy the clean up is? I love it so much I bought the KitchenAid quilted cover for it. Once you use this mixer you will never want to use anything else! The Best"

This is an awsome looking machine, kind of the Harley Davidson of Mixers you could call. Looks very familiar to my Grandmothers mixer which is still working I'm pretty sure, a testament to the quality of these very cool and high quality machines.

Cool Hub!
