I absolutely love this KitchenAid mixer. Being that I bake a lot, I wanted a heavy duty mixer. This mixer is so pretty sitting out on my counter. The color is vibrant and eye catching. It has multiple speeds and different accessories for different mixing needs which is wonderful.It is a powerful and sturdy mixer. I really like that I can make things and mix them without making a huge mess because the bowl is big. It also mixes heavy duty recipes like bread with ease as well.This mixer is worth every penny I spent. I know it will last me a long time.
