I ordered this model online to replace my 45-year-old KitchenAid (which was still working, but I was concerned about the safety of the non-grounded electrical plug). I am delighted to see that the quality of materials and features is equal to my original. I have put the new mixer to work right away, and it works like a champ! It is responsive, powerful, and quieter than my old one. I look forward to many years of service from KitchenAid mixer #2!
This mixer is an indispensable kitchen tool. I use it very often, for all sorts of food... even to mash potatoes! Love the pasta attachment, fresh pasta is a very especial treat for my family. It is perfect to make French macarons, the speed is always reliable, making the exact beating time for each perfect batch.
It does what I want, very easy to use. Just leave it on the counter, and it will be ready for use. I have found I am not using my hand mixer at all. I have ordered another bowl. But currently scape it into another bowl. In my kitchen I have several things going at once.I have wanted a kitchen aide for over 20 yrs. This works for my needs of cake decorating and baking at home.
Pros: Design, Convenient Features, Performance, Innovative, easy to use
Cons: a little more height between top of bowl and mixer
Better than I thought it would be! Great Color Too!

I have been wanting one of these for a long time. Finally got it at a great price and from a wonderful selection of colors! Have only used it twice so far, but it worked beautifully! Actually thinking about using it to make homemade bread again.
Never owned a KitchenAid product. My two beater mixed died and I was told to buy a KitchenAid. I did and I love it. Quite the "looker" in the red design. Amazed at how quiet and efficient it is!
I would recommend this to a friend!
