[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this to replace a 5.5 qt lift stand mixer and I am disappointed with this model. The first one I bought, the fuse blew out the first time I used it. KitchenAid was great with customer support and sent a replacement out ASAP. Now that I’ve used it a few times, I find the bowl extremely difficult to get in the bowl cradle/lift. When everything is aligned perfectly, you have to push so hard forward that the mixer moves and the bowl easily becomes misaligned with the nub on the back and the two brackets on the side. It is more frustrating than not and I end up angry with the purchase more often than not. I never had an issue with my older one. Once the stars align and the bowl is in place, the mixer works fine, although the same power level seems less powerful than my older mixer. Moral of the story, I shouldn’t have replaced my older mixer for what I thought was going to be an upgrade.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this KitchenAid mixer and on second time using it, it quit. Just stopped mixing and nothing would happen. For the price of these mixers their quality is crap. This is the 3rd KitchenAid mixer I've had and have had trouble with all 3 of them.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is not my first Kitchenaid stand mixer, I have purchased many others for family members, and atleast 4 others for myself...as an at home baker, I relied on the power and consistency of my kitchenaid mixers. I have gifted many to family members and friends who could not afford a Kitchenaid.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought with high expectations as my 6qt mixerbwas given to my kids. This new one literally gets stuck mixing basic bread dough. My old one was fabulous. I think KA changed motor types as this one is high pitched.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this new mixer. Great functions and is so quiet compared to older models. Makes double and triple batches of cookie dough. Cuts work time.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for mixing my bread dough. It works great and because of the bigger size I can mix 2 loafs at a time.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] “Annie” aka my pistachio bowl- lift Kitchenaide mixer is fabulous addition to my kitchen. Christmas cooking and baking was so fun and easy this year with her help. The color is so pretty too!
