[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Finally, the Artisan Series 5 Quart Tilt Head Mixer arrived. Other than staring at it, I have turned it on, picked recipes and waiting to join the legions of others who have had theirs for years.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a red Artisan Mixer and just purchased the Caviar Artisan mixer for my second home. The color looks so nice in my kitchen. I have a black and silver oven, stove and coffee maker. This mixer works so well with whatever I am making. Even the thickest cookie mixes or breads are handled easily. I use the attachments that are included for making bread and whipping cream. This is absolutely a good, well made product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this as a much wanted addition to my kitchen. I had been wanting one for quite awhile but the prices were too high for my budget. Finally found one in the right price range, read lots of reviews, and bought online. The good:. It is a beautiful, solid mixer. Seems to have plenty of power, easy to use, not too noisy, and does not move when in use. The bad: I especially wanted it to make bread and yeast recipes but the dough hook does not do a very good job. I have tried putting the ingredients in in different order to see if that helps but it seems to make no difference. My mixer came with the stainless steel bowl which has an upraised dimple at the bottom and I am wondering if that is part of the problem? Have to research online to see what others have to say. And now the ugly:. I was really excited about the collar but either I got a defunct one or they just do not fit right. I have clicked it in so that all three nubs are on the outside of bowl, start mixing and while adding flour it comes off.... It is just easier to take it off, shut the mixer off, add the flour, drape a kitchen towel over the mixer and turn it back on until flour is mixed in....I think this part could use some re-work. So there are things I love and things I can't stand...
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wife has been making cinnamon rolls for years (which have been excellent!) but she has surpassed even excellent with using her new KitchenAid Artisan Series 5 mixer. She remarked how easy it was to mix the dough and knead it, and how much better they cinnamon rolls turned out! She said she never knew what she was missing unitl she had this great product!!!!! We highly recommend it!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have wanted one forever and so happy I finally got one. So much easier to mix for my cookies at the holidays.. love baking!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love it but wish the attachments were more reasonably priced. Also, the pour shield doesn't quite fit on the bowl, keeps popping off, so I don't use it.
