Third Kitchenaid Mixer

This is the third KitchenAid mixer I own. I have a Classic white 4.5 quart tilt-head that I have used for 40 years, and a 5 quart bowl-lift Proline which is about 20 years old. In addition I have an antique Hobart 10 quart mixer from 1910. It still works, and I do use it.
I bake a lot of bread and the main reason I just had to have this new mixer was because of the spiral dough hook, and yes...it was worth it. I think the spiral hook is far superior to the regular c-hook for mixing doughs, especially very sticky ones like rye. Also, I have made very stiff bagel dough in this mixer with no problem. I think the slow start is a nice improvement, eliminating splash out upon start-up. So far I have been pleased with this mixer, though it is noisy.

Pros: 1. It accepts all the attachments from the other KitchenAid mixers. 2. The cover for the attachment connector is hinged. (I have had the cover fly off one of the older mixers). 3. According to enclosed literature, the plastic parts which were the focus of previous complaints have been replaced with metal parts so that should no longer be an issue.

Cons: 1. I cannot imagine why, in this day and age, Kitchenaid would manufacture attachments that cannot go into the dishwasher! 2. The included splash cover feels kind of flimsy.

Note: I have purchased Metro Beater Blades for each of the mixers. I find they do a great job mixing batters and cookie doughs and definitely cut down on bowl scraping. Additionally they can go into the dishwasher.

I really like the mixer with the large bowl. However, the sheild that comes with it does not stop all of the flour from flying out. I am happy with the speed and it is very quiet.

Love It, buy it

So much better than standing on your feet for hours on end in the kitchen. This thing is huge and fast! I have bought other infomercial junk and now I don't need to buy anthing else. This does everything! It looks great on the counter. Red was not my favorite color ever, and well this just looks awesome! It's almost to pretty to dirty up :O) Cleans fast, doesn not take up alot of space on my counter top as I live in an apartment. Motor is strong!! My family loves me more for all the treats and fresh bread they are enjoying. Defiantly worth the price!! no doubt about it. I have DDD and cannot stand on my feet for to long, so this has helped me be back in the kitchen. Everything that I have ever bought before, always broke/ motor would die or fry!! This thing is a working horse! I love it! you can not go wrong with this Kitchen Aide!!! :O)
