I have wanted to purchase a stand mixer for quite a while but kept putting it off. I finally found an offer I couldn't refuse - a rebate that included the grinder attachment. I love the mixer and the grinder - my husband says we are no longer purchasing ground beef at the store after my first batch of ground beef. Have also made bread dough, pie dough, batters and meat loaf with mixer. All I can say is why did I wait so long?!
Nothing like great tools to make you feel fearless in the kitchen. This stand mixer was on my wish list for years and now I am unstoppable! It dies so much that my hand mixer wouldn't and clean up us a snap. My favorite additional attachment so far us the pasta maker, yummy tortellini is becoming my specialty.
I purchased this back in March of 2014. I have always wanted one and I love it. I bake alot and the mixing just kills me. I put everything in the bowl and turn it on and walk away. It comes in so many colors which is awesome as well.
I got my Kitchenaid Artistan Series 5 quart tilt stand mixer as a gift. I love all the things it can do, the stainless steel mixing bowl and the beautiful canopy green color . Wish I had got one of the before now!!! Everyone needs one in their kitchen !
I replaced my mixer circa 1979 with the Kitchenaid Artisan and am so happy with it's performance. I make about 3000 cookies at Christmas time and need a mixer that can handle the load and this one can!
