    My mom still has her KitchenAid mixer from when she was first married and I come from a family of bakers so this machine did get a work out. 

    When I got marred my husband (ex now) thought he would just get me a hand mixer for Christmas and made the mistake of telling my parents that. OH that so did not fly. My parents bought me my very own KitchenAid mixer for my very own and it's still going strong. 

    I love to bake and I use my mixer for cookies, breads, frosting's and even mash potatoes. Oh yeah, if you want a fluffy, no lump mashed potatoes this is the machine to have.  As mom puts it...add...

    In response to AmyA's comment from Oct 2, 2009:

    Thanks for getting back to me, Amy. I called Hoover and they were quite helpful, so went ahead and opened the box. Yes, the thing really cleans -- better than the Orick -- and the edge cleaner works and it doesn't throw the cat litter back out the front. But it is very heavy and quite a chore to fight with it as it wants to pull forward. Maybe I need to raise it up a bit? The handle is not at all ergonomic and difficult to hold onto for older folks with weak hands. Haven't tried the tools yet, and hope I'm able to find a power brush attachment for it. Still think anything over a hundred dollars is too much to pay for a vacuum, but I haven't had it long enough to decide anything yet. It certainly does clean, and I'm happy about that.

    Thanks on the tip for the Pledge item, I'll have to try it. The back of my sofa has become the most favorite pet bed in the house. Thanks again.
