True Heaven!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have the 6 quart but without the tilt. I purchased this one specifically for the tilt mechanism and to be able to keep it on my counter (the first is too tall). Love this machine!
Made Butterhorn Rolls for Christmas…will be making them again & again! So simple!
I would recommend this to a friend!

My favorite kitchen tool

I received this as a Christmas present from my husband and I literally have not purchased bread from the store since! I only make one loaf at a time and it handles it well, no more sore arms from mixing! Can’t wait to get some attachments for it!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Wife is overjoyed.

I was going to surprise my wife, but decided to check with her before I chose a color. She picked Pistachio, and was absolutely overjoyed when it came in. We debated between this and the original 4.5qt but the extra attachments (and 3 qt bowl) we got with the Artisan get used all the time, so I think it's worth it to upgrade. In particular, the flex edge beater is a winner that helps keep ingredients incorporated much more efficiently. Another concern was space under the cabinet, but it tilts up just shy of the 17.5 height clearance we have under our cabinets so we don't have to move it to use it.
Lots of people complain about the lack of the spring where the attachments connect, but if you look at the design, the spinning force keeps the attachment at the correct height. I've never seen it jump up under torque, so if you want to add a spring, feel free, but I don't think it's critical. I suppose it feels reassuring if you grew up with these mixers (I did), but you are paying for peace of mind more than function.
The biggest upgrade over the one I grew up with is the flex edge beater. I don't know how many times as a kid that I'd almost get a spatula stuck while I was trying to push down ingredients. I know you're supposed to stop it, but..... Anyhow, the flex edge beater addresses that for a large part.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My new mixer sits on the counter because it is used so often, and the floral bowl is so beautiful.
