This is the easiest way to make bread and rolls. Come out perfect every time. I have arthritis and am not able to mix stiff heavy doughs by hand or knead easily. My KitchenAid takes care of both of these and it's not an all-day project anymore. I was never able to make what I considered "good" pie crust, but it is simple with my KitchenAid. I am successful every time.I never buy whipped topping any more. I make my own with real cream with in less than 5 minutes. Cookie dough is a cinch. have made my own sausage, ground beef for hamburger, made bread crumbs from leftover (homemade) bread, made ham salad from leftovers with the food grinder attachment. So easy to assemble, use, and clean. I make whipped mashed potatoes in just a few minutes. I love the stainless steel bowl. I often run either hot (to proof yeast or whip potatoes) or cold water (whipped cream) in it before adding the ingredients. I am planning on using the vegetable strainer attachment for canning tomatoes this summer. Read a lot of good tips on the internet for doing this; all positive comments about using the KitchenAid for canning prep.This is a very high quality piece of kitchen equipment and very easy to use. Takes a lot of the work out of home-prepared foods but they are still delicious and fun to make. I use the whip attachment for frostings and they come out so creamy and light. And the cinnamon color is beautiful. Coordinates perfectly with my kitchen and since I always display the KitchenAid on my counter, that is important. Would recommend this to anyone. This mixer is an incredible tool, attractive, easy to clean, and with the multitude of attachments available, its uses are almost endless.
Pros: Easy To Clean, Convenient Features, easy to use, Innovative, Design, Performance
I have really enjoyed this mixer given to me as a Christmas present. I've made pizza dough, cake, ravioli bread and tried spaghetti. The only thing I had trouble with was getting the spaghetti attachment to work properly. It has also been very helpful as I am in my sixties and my rotator cuff on my right arm is weak. Everyone at home benefits as I am back to baking again. Thanks to kitchen aid.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best appliance in my kitchen

Got my red Artisan stand mixer the morning of Christmas Eve! Thrilled doesn't even begin to describe it. "Big Red" was instantly the center of my kitchen. I made pumpkin waffles for Christmas brunch and proudly displayed a photo via smartphone to family and friends. I'm now trying artisan breads and have a pasta and grain mill attachment. For years I backed off making things we loved due to the time and effort it would take by hand. No more! Cant believe I waited so long to get this mixer. Cooking just went to a whole new level.
I received this for a Christmas gift and love it! It's time and energy efficient, easy to use, and creates less of a mess. It also has easy clean-up! I'm very pleased with it & can't wait to use it again!
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I replaced my older model that was still great but this one is classy & the head tilts & it is quiet and a little lighter & perfect for my old age!
I received my kitchenaid mixer for Christmas, I love using it. I find Radeon to cook and bake so I can use it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this last year and keep it within reach on my kitchen counter. I have used it for breads, cookies, whipped cream and more - it is easy to use and easy to clean. I look forward to adding some attachments - especially the pasta cutters!
