Calling all Cooks Does ayone out there have a Kitchen Aid Mixer and which one? There are like all these different ones to choose from and they range in price. Do you think it was worth the investment? |
how much baking or cooking will you be doing with it?? If you cook a lot and will use it often... then it would be worth getting one a little more $$... (remember, you get what you pay for) if you wont really be using it.. then it wont make scents to get a $$ one. |
I have the Kitchen Aid Artisan stand mixer and I LOVE it. I do cook and bake a lot, though. Since starting my dog treat business, I wish that I bought the professional one (because it has a larger bowl and more power) but the artisan has served me well thus far. I have a lot of the attachments to go with it. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: Having said that, they are a bit pricey so if you are not going to use it a lot you might want to consider buying one cheaper. I used a bunch of coupons when I purchased mine so it wasn't too expensive. Ebay may also some that are cheaper |
I love love love my Kitchen aid mixer. I have the professional 5 and I use it all the time. My advice to you is get the best one you can get for your money. You will use it all the time |
I have the Kitchen Aid Professional 6 quart. The advantages of the 6 quart are you can make a double batch of cookies or pizza dough with ease. I love mine and think it is worth it to spend more up front for the extra size and features. I didn't do this with my food processor and regret it. |
I have the Kitchen Aid Artisan Pink (I love pink). Hubby bought it for me a couple of years ago for Christmas. It has been great. It does such a good job. I don't do alot of baking but use it when there's any mixing to do. |
I bought a huge reconditioned Epicurean Kitchen Aid mixer off Ebay for a steal, it looks brand new. Got it originally to do my daughter's wedding cake 3 years ago and have used it maybe 5 or 6 times since. Do a search for reconditioned ones and see what pops up.;) |
I have a Kitchen Aid Proline Mixer. It is the heavy duty slate gray model. I have had it for 15 years, use it almost daily, and love it! My kitchen wouldn't be complete without it. If anyone reading this thread has a grinder attachment that they aren't using and would like to trade (maybe for some yorkie clothes) or sell, please let me know. Mine has a crack in the grinder body after 15 years of hard use. PLEAASE..... |
I just got a Kitchenaid Mixer for Christmas! It's the chrome one and think it's a 5 quart size. I cook and bake whenever I can so it should come in very handy. I've been wanting one for a few years so I'm excited to use it. |
Thanks I love to cook, Bake and have friends and family over. Thanks for the advice. I really wanted one just was unsure of which one to get. I like the idea of being able to also get the attachements for making ice cream and pasta! |

I have the one where the top tilts up. I use it for baking and I do like it. The problem that I have is that when I add flour or powdered sugar, the opening to the bowl is not big enough and then when you turn it back on it throws flour EVERYWHERE. So, if I were to do it again I would get the more expensive model that LIFTS the bowl up and down. I think that would be easier to add ingredients to. Still, I'm thrilled just to have one. It's great for making pound cake and cookies and whipped cream, I just have to clean up all the flour when I'm done!! |

Erin, I have the ProLine model that has the head that lifts up and down. You have to be careful about adding flour and turning it on -- or you will have a white flour cloud..... I have learned the hard way after cleaning up many messes on my hardwood kitchen floors to add a little flour at a time :) |
