My husband bought it for me, I am always baking everyone in the familys cakes and having everyone over for holidays, this will make my cooking and baking so much easier, I used it three times now in a week and the parts are so easy to take off and clean to get ready for the next use. I love how heavy duty it is, not like my usually mixer that burnt out last thanksgiving. I can't wait to get to start making more with it. I will definitely be ordering more attachments.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I have always wanted a KitchenAid mixer - all the women in my family have one. I finally bought one and have been on a roll making cookies, using my spiralizer and dicer to make delicious treats and healthy side dishes. It has brought cooking back into my life and i am enjoying it as are my family and friends who benefit from the results of my new hobby!

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) This is a fantastic mixer for this price, Refurbished means It may or does have a minor scratch that you would probably get after a few weeks of use anyway, but for a huge savings. I use it for everything from sausage making to cakes and it is perfect for everything. The bowl lift and powerful motor are a big bonus for me.

I was in the market for purchasing a stand mixer and wanted to pay for the quality after extensive research and polling my peers kitchen aid was the highest recommended. I was so excited when it shipped and couldn't wait to use it! I made chocolate chip cookies from one of the recipes which came with my mixer. The mixer by far handled great!!!!! Can't wait to use it again!

I have been wanting a stand mixer forever! I received this as a gift this year and I am having so much fun cooking and baking with it. The colbolt blue color is beautiful and looks look great on my counter. It makes mixing so much easier and everyone swears my chocolate chip cookies taste better since using it. lol

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I L-O-V-E this model. I have been baking and cooking up a storm since I got it. Even made homemade fresh butter from scratch! Got the Ice-cream Attachment and plan to get plenty more attachments soon! Don't let the Refurbished word scare you off. It runs like a champ.

Over my adult life I have always insisted on having a really good mixer. When I was 83, I bought the KitchenAid Artisan mixer and found the "Ultimate" mixer! Since then I have purchased six of them as gifts for the girls in my family. At age 87, and still cooking, I know the importance of having the best appliances. One feature that I adore is being able to add the chopped pecans and chocolate morsels into the cookie dough while the mixer is running!!!

I am a home baker and had the same hand mixer for years. This is the best mixer ever. Batters and doughs take less time to make. The bowl design and splatter guard keep messes to a minimum. The different attachments have a multitude of uses. It is the best investment you can make for your kitchen.

My midlife crisis has become baking healthier treats for family and friends. Until now I modified all recipes calling for a mixer with muscle power and not always getting the best results. My daughter bought me a gorgeous red mixer and who wouldn't be excited to use it. Now from mixing biscotti recipes to whipping up egg whites, Kitchenaid has become my new muscle power and after eating all those treats I make, I head to the gym!

Oh I just love my mixer!!! Ive only had hand held mixers n I finally broke down and bought this kitchen aid. Has so much more power and i can go do other things while my mixer is working away!! Baked bread with it n it works like a charm!!! No more hand kneading!!!!!!Got a great deal on it at Kohls and am so glad I looked into this purchase. Now im thinking about attachments as summer canning is right around the corner!!
