A great mixer!

I bought this one when recommended by a friend. It does a great job and has made the 'mixing' process very easy. It's very heavy and although I'd like to store it in a cupboard, it has to stay on the counter all the time. I find that the beater is hard to disengage, especially when there is batter all over it - a bit messy! It would be nice if there was a lever to disengage it. The bowl is quite deep and hard to get the last scrapes of batter etc. but overall it's a super appliance and I'm glad that I purchased it.
My mixer was given to me as a birthday present about 4 months ago. I can't believe how easy it is to use and how great i feel not having to mix everything by hand. It is powerful and has easy to use features. Very very happy!
I'm a pro chef, and I tend to shy away from appliances. I just like to do things by hand. I do most of my test cooking at home though, and I love this thing.. Its great for making dough, whipped cream, creamed butter, mixing things like meatloaf, on and on. It works well, it had a great deal of compatible attachments, and if its still made as well as the one my parents had, it should be the only one I ever have to buy.
I have had my stand mixer for several months now. I do a lot of baking, my love for cheesecake is my best offer, and this mixer is awesome! Mine is the orange color and matches my kitchen décor - no way is this beauty going in a cabinet...
I bought my Kitchenaid Artisan Series at Christmas time and I absolutely love it. All I have ever owned is a hand mixer. This is like moving into another world of mixers....I made the same cookies I make every year but everyone said they were better this year and I truly believe it is because all the ingredients get mixed more evenly. I will never go back to a hand mixer and now want to order different attachments.
Have always wanted a stand mixer. Looked at reviews and always saw that people were happy with the Kitchenaid - sometimes in generations of a family.
Thought that said something about the product - and it truly does. Easy to operate in getting the hang of the speeds - and does an outstanding job. Also like the fact that you can funnel down the dry ingredients while it is still running.
