Red KitchenAid Mixer - Valerie L. Schlagal - West Texas
I've waited what seems like a lifetime for a KitchenAid and it lives up to all my expectations. The seller was great - item was delivered as described - no hitches - very quick and easy transaction.
3rd time is a charm????? - M. Blazavich - Pennsylvania United States
I purchased this product new from Target in December 2007. By November 2008 the gears from levels 6 through 10 were gone. I did not subject it to heavy use, just your normal cake mixes, icings, mashed potatoes, etc... I engaged the warranty and Kitchen Aid sent me a new one. Just recently we realized AGAIN, the gears from 6 through 10 are gone. I called Kitchen Aid again to use the warranty and told them that this mixer kept losing the gears. After dealing with a rude customer service representative, I called back again. The new representative informed me that I could get the same mixer as a replacement free of charge or I could pay more and upgrade to a different mixer. I thought that was a good idea until I realized that even though they were advertising the new mixer I wanted at 0 I would still have to pay difference between what I originally paid and the MSRP. So instead of a better mixer for approximately which they have advertised on their website, I (because I am trying to be a loyal customer) am being punished and told I have to pay 5 more to get a better made machine. Talk about outstanding customer service. I thought this would be a similar machine and the company would be similar to the service and credibility that my Grandmother experienced when she purchased her mixer 70 years ago. However it is not the case with the new Kitchen Aid. I will definitely think twice before I purchase anything that is Kitchen Aid or Whirlpool!!!!!
What a work horse. - Kirstin Mason - Franklin, TN
I used this product so much over the Christmas holidays that I don't know what I
would have done without it. It is a work horse. Is consistently useful and does
exactly what it is supposed to. It is very heavy so if your lugging it around
that is bothersome. But I take that to a flimsy mixer any day. Easy to clean
up and really no down side that I have yet to find.
This model comes with three attachments: a flat beater for making batter, meat loaf, and all textures in-between; a wire whip for egg whites, mayonnaise, and more air-infused creations; and a hook for mixing and kneading yeast doughs. All three are solid in construction and easily secured to the beater shaft with a simple twist; untwisting them is a bit trickier because the attachment stems are short and can be hard to grasp, especially if they get the least bit greasy. This model also includes a pouring shield for guiding ingredients to their proper destination, and the bowl itself locks tight to the base.
Standing 14 inches high, jutting out a foot, and weighing more than a grown woman's bowling ball, this stand mixer isn't the sort of appliance you'll wipe down and put away. Better to find a square foot of free counter space for easy access; besides, this machine is as pretty as it is rugged--you'll want to show it off.
To complete the package, KitchenAid includes a spiral-bound guide with instructions, mixing tips, and 67 recipes, from crispy waffles to a caramel walnut banana torte. --Betsy Danheim
Heavy duty workhorse - C. Aurich - usa
These mixers are used in manufacturing environments here and abroad for blending batches of textile-related chemicals for testing and quality control purposes.
They work well, last long, and do a difficult job under fairly severe conditions.
So it should work well in your kitchen, I think.
the only mixer you will need in your lifetime - Cathy S. Barczak - Michigan
2 years ago my children gave me a kitchenaid for Christmas. You haven't lived until you have one!!!! Everything is so much easier to do with this appliance. Set it and let it mix. After my wonderful experience with this I decided to get my daughter and daughter in law each one for Christmas. They were excited beyond belief and can't wait to start using them. They both have young children that will grow up with them, hopefully the children will realize how important this appliance is when they grow up after using it during their growing up years. Absolutely would recommend this product to anyone.

Disappointed - maiden voyager - Colorado
I'm disppointed. As others have said, it's lousy for breadmaking: the mixer jumps around when you mix bread and afterwards the bowl is next to impossible to remove. It's okay for cakes, I guess. I haven't tried cookies, but I suspect I may have similar problems with any stiff dough. A previous reviewer said KitchenAid said this model wasn't intended to use more than 4 minutes and wasn't intended for bread. At nearly 0? I'm thinking of selling it -- Anyone want to buy a used KitchenAid Classic?
A Classic that still has the quality - Glenn -
Fantastic mixer. My mother had one just like it. It amazes me because iy still has the quality of the original of many decades ago.

Just awsome - - Best of the best, I get cookies everyday now.
This is the deal, the price, free shipping, and you can not say enough for this product.
Having lots of fun... - looking around - Centennial, Colorado As soon as I got the mixer I took it out, hand washed the bowls and the attachments (everything is dishwasher safe, except the whip attachment) and I was ready to go. So far, after 5 loaf of bread, 12 pizzas, and dozens of cookies I�m still looking for more stuff to do. The set includes a handy booklet that has some great recipes. Go ahead try it, you will not regret it!
I always wanted to check one of this things out, but found that the price was a bit steep� that�s until I got an Amazon �Gold Box offer� and I decided to take the plunge.
