What's not so great: Does not last.
Bought this product for the KitchenAid name--have since learned my lesson. Product lasted two years being used barely to half capacity, then the gears just stopped working. When I contacted Kitchenaid, they surprised me by really not caring an ounce. They would not help me an iota because it was beyond warranty--unless I'd shell out more money to them to fix it. They even tried to make is sound like it was my fault. They claimed that the 14 cup maximum is INCLUDING all ingredients, when their manual clearly says you can use recipes that call for 14 cups of flour (ASIDE from all the other ingredients). When I told them that, they quickly changed tact. Said I was probably leaving it running too long...I have a Cuisinart that I use super-heavily, and have never had a problem with that in years. If you're looking for a product that isn't disposable--and if you'd like the company you're buying from to care about what happens to you even after the 1 year warranty--I'd recommend avoiding this product, and Kitchenaid.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Fast and easy. Clean up is a snap.
What's not so great: HEAVY
I have waited many years, envying my sister's KitchenAid stand mixer. Finally, my wonderful groom of 5 months, gave me the mixer of my dreams. I must say it is everything I had hoped for. Egg whites are whipped nice and fluffy in a flash. Whipped cream is ready before you can get the berries in the bowl! I have mixed breads, cakes, meatloaf and everything else I can come up with an excuse to make. I love it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Work-horse of a mixer. Lives up to its reputation, and performs better than anticipated.
What's not so great: attachment and accessory prices, but shopping around you can get pretty good deals.
I have wanted this Kitchen Aid mixer for years and finally broke down and purchased one for myself for Christmas. It was one of the best investments I've made. For what it is worth, here is my two cents about the whole process.
First, make sure you do your research and choose the right mixer for you. Also make sure you take advantage of Best Buy's price match guarantee. I researched and found the same mixer online at Target.com for much less than Best Buys price. I printed the ad and took it in and Best Buy matched the discounted price. Being the holidays, I received an addition 5% discount from Best Buy. Overall with the extended warranty I still paid less than the advertised price.
The look and finish of this nickel mixer is truly outstanding. I've used it extensively in the month or so that I've had it and it is definitely a work-horse. I've made triple batches of cookies, cakes, pies, mashed potatoes, dips, and the list goes on... it was a life-saver for the holidays. Well worth the investment you make in this mixer. Be on the lookout for the attachments as well and again do your research for the best price.
I would recommend this to a friend!
