This is a wonderful mixer. I use it for standard baking, candy making and for heavy duty uses like kneading bread. It is strong and extremely versatile. The whisk is an especially nice attachment for adding air and fluff as you would whipping cream or making meringue. I have had this mixer for years. Family members have used my mixer while visiting me and later bought one. I have the food processing attachments, but I only use them for applesauce. For more regular uses, I think it is too much hassle to attach them for use and then clean them, but I feel this way about most other kinds of...

I grew up with my Mom's KitchenAid mixer and when I got my own place about 12 years ago I got one of my own and still have it.  These things last forever! 

My KitchenAid mixer is well used, I can whip up anything from cookies to bread in it.  It looks nice in the kitchen. Unlike a hand mixer sitting on the counter, it's a centerpiece in the kitchen.

I know that they are expensive but if you add up all the hand mixers that you will go through in your lifetime you will save in the long run with a KitchenAid mixer!

I bought a Kitchen Aid Mixer in 1979 for $120.00 and sold in on Ebay 28 years later for $50.00 - I wanted a newer color.  The person that bought it was thrilled.  She gave it to her husband for Christmas.

I bought the KitchenAid Proline K5M5 a year ago and both my Husband and I love it.  I use it when I bake.  My husband uses it to make bread.  I especially like the bigger bowl.

It's well worth the money and will last me the rest of my years and then will be passed on to someone in the family, I'm sure.

I received as a wedding gift from my husband, and it has gotten him out of the dog house many times!  He always reminds me that his love for me will last longer than my Kitchen-aid, and it is built to last a long time! 

For bakers, and home chefs this product will revolutionize the way you use your kitchen.  I do a lot of baking around the holidays, and birthdays, so this seemed like a great way to expedite those processes.  I could double or triple cookies batches, make fluffier cakes, and mix bread without burning out the motor in my Kitchen-aid hand mixer.  I never thought I would be the...

I received this mixer as a gift from my Mom.  We use it every year to make dozens of Christmas cookies. It's holds up great, works very well, and is very easy to use. Clean up is not a problem, everything can go in the dishwasher. it is one of the best gifts I ever received!

 My KitchenAid mixer is indeed a work horse, I grind my four with the grinder attachment, and then mix the bread after a cool down time. I had gotten several attachments with my old machine an was happy that they all fit and work on the new one. I used to be a baker and these machines are similar to the BIG ones I used to use at work. It is larger than many old mixers we were used to back when but that does keep the machine from dancing off the counter with a heavy load, and I naver would have been able to mix bread in them.  Attachments can be hard to find in stores But they are avalable online... read full review »

I recieved this mixer as a gift from my grandparents.  It is the best gift I could have asked for.  I have been decorating cakes for about 8 or 9 years and was quite honestly so frustrated with other mixers.  I burnt up 4 hand mixers in a matter of 1 year.  I have had this one for 2 years now and wouldn't trade it for any other small kitchen appliance.  This mixer is this cake decorator's dream in the kitchen.  If there was one thing that I would change about this mixer I would give it a larger bowl.  Sometimes if I have to make a lot of frosting or a very large cakeI have to make it in... read full review »

This Kitchenaid mixer has the horsepower to handle the toughest mixing chores without complaining. Granted, a hand mixer has its place for quick, light duties. But there is nothing like a stand mixer to make quick work of things like stiff cookie dough. The motor on the Kitchenaid is designed to handle that type of chore without whining (and having you wonder if it will burn out as a result). It is large, however, and will take up room on your kitchen counter. If you have a small kitchen and use a mixer a lot, it is probably too heavy to have to take out and put away on a frequent basis. But it... read full review »

this is the best mixer I have ever set in my kitchen, and my kitchen will never be without a Kitchen-aid again.  Very powerful easy to clean and always ready for any task at hand.  I love this product for homemade breads and mash potato's.  I have taken a look at all the attachments, but I seem to have a little difficulty finding where to purchase them.  I really think a couple of the attachments that are sold separately are quite necessary and should come with the original set.  Over all this is the best electronic in my kitchen, and will not be included in my prenuptial agreement.

Within the past month, I have purchased the KitchenAid Proline K5M5 Mixer.  I bake numerous cakes for the Elderly and I was having to use more energy and time, adding ingredients while holding a large bowl, mixing, changing positions and continue on.  It was wearing me out.  I saw the standing mixer and thought Perfect, that would help, I made the purchase and it has made my Baking Experiences: now much more enjoyable.  I can deliver more Carrot cake w/pineapple and raisins & walnuts with Cream Cheese Frosting more often, for many more elderly peoples.

Kitchenaid Mixer

A definite must have for any cook or baker!  I previously had a hand-held mixer and was hesitant to purchase a Kitchenaid Mixer due to the cost.  Lucky for me, I received a Kitchenaid Mixer last year as a gift.  Mixing is so easy now!  Perfect for homemade mashed potatoes or any baked treats - just put your ingredients in and turn it on.  Easy peasy!  As you are probably aware, there are several attachments available for purchase including an ice cream maker, meat grinder, etc.  I will hopefully be able to build my Kitchenaid Mixer collection.

I use my KitchenAid for a lot of things. 

I home bake all our bread, just using my KitchenAid and the recipe that came with it.  The attachments are easy to use and small for what they do...I would need at least 3 more full-sized appliances if I had to replace them...not to mention a bread machine to replace the dough hook.  It is stylish, so it looks good on my counter. 

I use it at least 4 times a week...for the last 10 years.  It still looks and works like NEW!

My Kitchenaid is my favorite small appliance. I can prepare so many delicious items with it, I consider it a food processor too, it does so much to making cooking easier.

The attachments are easy to use, the whole model is great looking and it just might last through my lifetime!! I don't mind it sitting on the counter it is great looking.

My family appreciates my kitcheaid too, they are getting a lot more homemade items and with today's economy, it is a real cost-saving appliance!!!!

Love this mixer! It does everything for you. (I haven't tried all the attachments, but am looking forward to using them.) Batters are mixed while you're adding ingredients which saves time. No more achy shoulders from stiring thick batters. Makes cooking a breeze, especially for a busy housewife/taxi driver/executive assistant/biller/accountant/etc/etc!!!!

    The kitchenaid proline mixer was a godsend for me.  I have carpal tunnels in my hands so holding a vibrating mixer was painful.  When I received the proline as a gift I was able to pour my ingredients into the bowl, push the lever to the desired speed and watch the product blend and mix to the perfect consistency!
