[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got my kitchen aid for Christmas and I use it one or twice a week to bake. I’ve noticed the top of the machine is starting to come loose and the attachments are already scratching. I’ve used old kitchen aids before that didn’t have this problem, so I’m unsure why mine feels like it’s already wearing and tearing and I haven’t had it for a month! Other than that it works fine! I just had to tighten the back screws myself, as for the attachments, it’s not a big deal, but the product is expensive, it should already be scratched? I love my mixer either way!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve put off buying one of these mixers as it’s essentially a luxury item. I can do the same thing with a spoon I thought, or a hand mixer. Why spend the money. But over the years and through the hand mixers I always kept my eye on the stand mixer. Finally saying, I don’t bake that much so why bother.
And yet here we are, I saw a machine I decided I have a grown up Le Creuset, Staub, Zwilling kitchen now and it’s time I get a grown up mixer. Oddly, I made everything I was doing better. Which is sad, because I’ve always loved my cookies and breads but have no them mixed this well and having so much less clean up has been more than a luxury but an essential. Not everyone needs this and not everyone will use it and all of its features. But if you are hand blended or spoon mixing once a week then it’s really an item to consider. After the first use you’ll feel like it’s money well spent. Now I’ll still make the occasional pizza dough by hand as that’s the best way, but my cookies and breads and everything else just blend better than ever and come out of the oven with better results. Less mess and clean up, and the attachments have been nice. I use them to dice veggies and such.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband bought me the stand mixer and it has met all my expectations. I really like the grip it has on my counter and doesn't move around. I've been trying lots of new recipes!
