Disappointed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used a Kitchen Aid Mixer for 33 years & was very happy with it, but it is about worn out - most speeds don't work anymore. I was excited to buy this new one, since the bowl is bigger & it is supposed to have more power. The first thing I noticed when I took it out of the box is that the silver band on the motor head is installed crooked. (It could be a problem keeping clean.) I DO NOT like the fact that Kitchen Aid no longer puts the spring on the post. When running the mixer, it sounds clunky & I'm concerned about the motor wearing out soon because of so much play in the post & the part that goes up into the mixer head. When kneading dough, it sounds like the mixer is working harder than my old one that I made dough with for 33 years! My grandmother loved her kitchen aid, my mother loves hers & I loved my old one. But, I am disappointed with the new one.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not Worth the Money

Got this mixer for Mother’s Day and a week later it wouldn’t turn on. Fast forward a month, I go to make banana bread and it turned on for about 2 minutes. What a waste of money.

Got this as a gift brand new. I couldn't use it till 2 years after I had it since I didn't have space. Finally got to use it this month. Used it 5 times to make cookies. Never used it on a higher setting then 6. It just stopped working in the middle of me trying to make cookies.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

ISSUES!!
on June 22, 2020
Posted by: Poor
from decatur, il
The top part moves and shakes so it seems to unlock itself and the whole machine shakes and the bowl moves and it comes off. I literally have to hold it down to make sure it just doesn’t come apart. I am not sure why this is happening? Did not expect this kind of issues with brand name like kitchen aid!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Poor Broken Appliance

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been wanting one of these kitchenaid stand mixers for years. Finally I received one. I was so excited to finally have one and couldn’t wait to use it and become the baker I am not.LOL. I registered my product, got it all cleaned up, read my instructions, and got it all up to use for the very first time. I couldn’t wait. So, as I start to use it, it was making a funny noise, Checked it, all good and started it again. This time a dark grey cloud of smoke started to out back from the back motor and burning smell. I quickly turned everything off and unplugged. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED to say the least, that this highly sought after and supposedly wonderful appliance of mine That came highly recommended was a flop and not what I was waiting for as it was burning up in my face.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Worked great but broke much faster than expected

These are supposed to be very durable, but my two-year-old mixer has started making terrible grinding noises and dramatically overheating - it's clearly about to die. I'm not even a heavy user - bread dough maybe twice a month and occasional egg whites or whipped cream. I would not have paid this much money for a premium stand mixer if I had known it would only last 2 years.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Difficult to use

Bought the extra paddle with side scraper, only to have it throw oil outside the bowl when added to eggs, on the stir setting.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Best Mixer Ever
on July 28, 2022

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was our Second mixer, the first one lasted 18 years. Pretty sure we wore it out. There was never a doubt that we weren't going to get another KitchenAid. We still have several attachments and they are amazing. And my wife wanted this Blue, and she was right.
