3 out of 5 stars NOT for Professional or Everyday Use.   July 3, 2008
E. Nadal
My dad has been using the Kitchen Aid Mixers way before they became popular (When they were Hobarts). He buys them because he needs the 5qt+ capacity - no more no less. He uses them almost daily and has gone through several after it switched from Hobart to Kitchen Aid. Kitchen Aid customer service is excellent and they've replaced a few of them.

If you are looking for a mixer you can abuse and use professionally, get a more expensive machine if you can. These are built for the occassional home kitchen use and for years now have not been built to last. If that's their track record I doubt they'll go "back in quality", but just keep getting cheaper. I recently ordered a Electrolux DLX2000 for him based on their solid reviews, but would always have liked a $1500-1800 Hobart N50, but could never justify the $$$, since to him that equals 5 or 6 Kitchen Aid 600s every 2-3 years each!




3 out of 5 stars gearbox is poorly made   June 24, 2008
G. Maxwell
mixer worked great for several years, then someone put bread dough in it. now the gearbox is completely shot: the plastic casing cracked, allowing the gears to misalign, ripping some of the teeth off of one of the gears and cracking one of the bushings. great mixer, just not for anything thicker than cookie dough.

I love my mixer.It is a little loud but not enough to complain about. I have a 4.5 quart and love it but the professional one I have now is awsome.


5 out of 5 stars FABULOUS Mixer!   June 23, 2008
Kim Boyko
Wow...my husband got me this for my birthday and I am just floored. The quality is outstanding and it will literally last a lifetime. I don't think there isn't anything this mixer can't do. Highly recommend it for anyone who does a lot of cooking/baking.


5 out of 5 stars Great for Making Bread   June 19, 2008
Mary Mixer (San Diego, Ca USA)
I was worried because some reviews talked of a part breaking when mixing bread, but further research showed that KitchenAid had fixed that problem. I have owned my KitchenAid for 8 months, made countless whole grain breads and I love it! Had a problem with the dough hook releasing, but called KA and they had me fix it with a drop of oil-and they were so nice. What a great company!
