A Terrifically Useful Kitchen Tool

I have had this KitchenAid Artisan stand mixer a little over a month and have used it to knead whole wheat bread dough. It works like a charm to both mix and knead the ingredients. Be sure to download the online manual — it is essential to know the proper speed settings to use so that you do not burn out the motor. KitchenAid mixers have always had a great reputation.

Exhaustive research-- well-pleased with my choice!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have been enjoying my Nautilus R618 Recumbent Exercise Bike for a little over a month. After having done exhaustive research on recumbent exercise bikes, I am well-pleased with my decision to purchase this particular bike. It was delivered to my front door in a very heavy, large, narrow box which I was able to slide inside for unpacking. Everything inside the box was in pristine condition due to all components being encased in styrofoam blocks. I carefully unpacked all components and checked everything against the parts list located in the first few pages of the manual. All parts accounted for, I took them to the room where I planned to assemble the bike. I am a 70 year old female and I was able to assemble the bike by myself, needing a helper only to hold a component while I made the wiring connections to the control console. Assembly took about 2 hours. Once it was assembled it was quite easy to slide it into position for use. I connected the power cable, plugged it into a surge protector, and it powered right up.
Like most products you get today, the assembly instructions are scant on words and big on pictures. Just take your time and study the manual before you begin, making sure to look closely at the pictures. All tools required for assembly are included (4 mm and 6 mm hex wrenches and a screwdriver/wrench combination). You even get a few extra washers and bolts. You will need a utility knife or scissors to open the hardware packaging.
The bike has an easily-adjusted seat with levers that allow you to tilt the backrest, and to move the seat forward and backward to accommodate the length of your legs. The backlit console is very easy to read and to operate. Resistance can be increased or decreased by pressing the pads on the console, or on the seat handlebars.
You can enter your profile (name, age, weight, height, gender, preferred workout values). There is a quick start (non-automated) program, 12 different profile programs that automate different resistance and workout levels, custom program which allows you to set the resistance level for each interval and select type of goal to create a personalized workout, and finally, a cool down mode. You can track your heart rate using the included chest strap or the contacts located on the handlebars.
The only thing I would change is the location of the media tray. I like to watch virtual bike tours while I use the bike, but when I place my iPad on the tray, it blocks the upper display on the console. If you don't care about where you are in the program it will not matter to you. It is not a big thing, and I will eventually figure out a way around it.
The manual that comes with the bike does not go into real detail about all the features of this bike, but if you go online to www.nautilus.com/manuals you will find a more detailed operations manual that you can print for reference.
As I said at the start, I am very happy with this purchase -- from ordering, to delivery, to assembly, operation and performance. I think it is a good buy -- you get a lot for your money, and I recommend it.
