Question: Does the bowl lock into base of stand?
Document: My mixer couldn't stand up to its intended primary purpose: as bread dough kneader. Every time I put the hook in, locked the tilt head in place, then began to knead the dough mixture, the tilt mechanism would shimmy out of lock... so badly that eventually the entire head would be bobbing up and down as the hook just skimmed the dough ball!
I prefer the tilt-head style. The paddles never get out of the way with the bowl-lift, getting the bowl to lock in place is a jerky movement, and it takes up a lot of vertical counter space. What you do get for the extra cost of the Pro series is a better dough hook, a metal gearbox, more power, and a slightly larger bowl.
This KitchenAid 4-1/2-Quart Ultra Power Stand Mixer in Empire Red is as terrific as I thought it would be. The bowl is huge, the color is pleasant and not overwhelming, and the variety of attachments make baking not only easier, but seemingly almost too easy! I love the paddle attachment, have yet to use the captain-hook-hand-looking instrument and very much appreciate the beater, all of which are incredibly easy to clean and fit in any dishwasher.
KitchenAid Ultra Power Stand Mixer this KitchenAid Stand Mixer has a strong 300-watt motor that delivers the power to handle the heaviest mixtures, and mix large batches easily. The 4.5-quart polished stainless steel bowl with ergonomic handle is big enough to handle large batches of heavy mixtures.You find more models at reasonable cost in indiadimers website...For more online deals,freebies and discounts visit:[...]
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this stand mixer! I have used it for so many things. It works great, is very sturdy and it's red. :-)I am not really sorry that I didn't get the 5 quart model. There is a double bread recipe I make that just barely fits in the 4 1/2 quart bowl. (recipe requires approx 7 cups of flour)  Everything else has been perfect! My cakes and cookies have turned out to be better when mixed in the stand mixer!
Product came in a timely manor, however, it is not in good condition. The setting levels are hard to change. It was dirty when I got it and the head(not sure what its really called) lock and unlock does not work, it stays unlocked, I have to hold it down.
I made sure the head was locked into position and repeatedly tested this by trying to lift the head. Sorry, but this was either defective or it's simply the way the machine is intended to work...lifting out of lock when the ingredients prove too difficult. I promptly returned it. Sigh.
Not ready to give up on KitchenAid altogether, but would definitely rethink the Ultra-Power model. Received mine as a birthday gift (HAPPY birthday to me!) and made several batches of bread but found that the tilt head wasn't locking securely in place. After a short time of kneading dough, the latch would actually free itself and the mixer head would start bouncing up and down. I could even lock it and then lift the head with my hand and the lock would slide out of locked position.
I have wanted a KitchenAid stand mixer for 50 years and I finally have one. Made my first batch of chocolate chip cookies for my grandchildren and they turned out great. So easy, no mixing by hand anymore. It is the best!!! !
This is the first stand mixer I have owned. It lives up to the KitchenAid name as far as quality and performance. Time will tell about the reliability but I have very high expectations. The seller was very good keeping me informed about my order and shipping time was good.
Answer: Yes it does, and since there is no handle on the bowl, it can be challenging to unlock it!
