I love my new Artisan Mixer! It is so much easier than the old hand mixer that I had been using and it handles anything! I just made cheese balls for Christmas, I used to dread this job, but my KitchenAid made it so easy! Why did I wait so long to own one???
I am so happy with my KithcenAid Artisan Series Mixer. I have been wanting a Kitchenaid stand mixer for years, and I finally was able to purchase this item. This mixer is very easy to use, and the instructions provided are very easy to understand. My grandchildren and I have been busy making breads, cakes, cupcakes, and cookies. I am looking forward to purchasing some of the attachments.
My husband bought my apple cider stand mixer as a Christmas present, but couldn't wait to give it to me. And I am so glad! If I had a complaint, it would be that the head does not lock when tilted up.
I didn't really "need" a new mixer, but I am so glad Santa got this for me! My old mixer didn't handle the heavy doughs very well. With this one - that is not an issue. Unfortunately I "need" to get some of the cool attachments now!
It's my first stand mixer and I love it. I have not used it much yet but I plan on purchasing some of the attachments (food processor, pasta maker). The fact you can use the attachments make this mixer really versatile. I also love how many colors there are to choose from.
