I've had this mixer for 16 years and I use it all the time for baking, and mixing, (try using it for mashed potatos). My daughter wanted to take this with her to college, but Santa is bringing her a PINK one instead. This is the only appliance I have not replaced in my kitchen because it is Still Going Strong!

This is great to have at a party for adults. Children will have trouble turning off this spigot. If you aren't careful the entire spigot will unscrew and punch will pour out everywhere.

Unsurpassed power even on the stickiest bread doughs. This mixer didn't even get warm after nearly 10 hours of use making tamales! The attachments replace the need for many additional appliances-but they are pricey. Make sure you explore the additional warranty options available from KitchenAid-they are very affordable. By the way-my Mom has been using HER KitchenAid mixer for over 40 years now, and she wouldn't replace it for anything. I was hoping to get hers-but she told me to buy my own!
