KitchenAid Artisan, 5-Qt Tilt Head Stand Mixer, KSM150PS, Blue Velvet

Prioritized Note: If you’re on the fence as to whether you “need” this, BUY IT. It’s so much easier than fussing with a hand mixer (and I have a very good one) Especially if you have a health situation where you tire easily, and maybe don’t bake much, if at all, anymore. That applies to me. This isn’t merely a mixer on a stand, this is a valuable machine that does most of the work. Normally, the batch of apple muffins I just made would’ve exhausted me. They’re mixed and baked and it was EASY. Be good to yourself and get one!This is my first ever stand mixer. I have never even used one, or even

4.5 STARS. As always, I prefer to give credit where credit is due rather than short change a product, but just keep in mind there are a few drawbacks to this mixer. But first the pros, this sucker is STURDY! Most of us have seen these mixers everywhere for what seems to be decades, but it was probably just me that didn't realize all kitchenmaid stand mixers aren't created equal. While they may look alike, different models have different capacities, speeds and effectiveness in various applications. I really wanted to wait to write this review until I had really explored this machine because it'

I bought this mixer for my grandson and his fiance for their wedding gift. I have it to them early so they could start using it. It is a wonderful item to gift someone because it will last FOREVER! My Mom got hers when I was 8 years old. I'm 63 and my sister has it now since my Mom passed away. It looks new, works like it is new, and it's 55 years old! ! They are AMAZING mixers! They offer excellent tools you can purchase to go with them, pasta maker, slicers, food processors, meat slicers, grain mills, etc. KITCHENAID is the best out there! EVERY kitchen should have one! They are a joy to use

Tremendous product! Color as shown! Arrived promptly! The bride to be loves it!!

This KitchenAid Artisan mixer feels like the old-school mixer I grew up baking with in the 70s alongside my mom — and it’s a million times better than I expected. The way the bowl locks into place is solid and easy, and the mixing action is incredible. Unlike the old mixers where you had to manually turn the bowl by hand and constantly scrape the sides, this paddle is designed to reach everything on its own. It pulls the batter from the sides into the center so everything gets mixed thoroughly without scratching the bowl.I love how deep the bowl is, too. Nothing flies out while mixing, and I d

I always bought Sunbeam mixers but they are discontinued now. So I bought this Kitchen Aid when my Sunbeam died, and wow! This is quite an impressive upgrade for me! It's beautiful and mixes very efficiently. Other than it being a bit heavy to move, I think it's great! I like that the head can tilt back and it has one paddle instead of the two beaters my Sunbeam had.

Took me a year to buckle down and buy myself something nice. Works well and the color is perfect. It matches my car and motorcycle oddly enough. The power of the motor takes on my cold butter with ease. The quality of the material is perfect and has several speeds.

This is a great mixer. You should probably own one. Not sure? Read on!Before we bought this mixer, I thought of residential model kitchen stand mixers in terms of my mother's Oster Kitchen Center or my grandmother's Sunbeam 2371 MixMaster Stand Mixer, White (but about 60 years older, with yellowed plastic...) Think: two beaters, a bowl that turns based on beater friction, basically a hand mixer on a stand of some sort, in concept if not design.When you think of the KitchenAid, you should think of a large restaurant/commercial Hobart mixer down-sized to fit on your counter. It works exactly the
