Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

My first mixer. I can't be happier

Bugkiller2011 12/3/2019

I've been using this mixer for the last four months, and it's been a blast. I am looking for recipes that require using the mixer. Nothing beats fresh pasta and cookies! Working like a champ!

kwriter 10/8/2019

I bought my Kitchenaid Mixer about a week ago. I normally wait longer to write reviews but I don't need to with this one. I adore it! I've been on a baking spree so I can test out everything this powerful mixer can do. I couldn't be happier. I've wanted one of these my entire adult life and I'll never buy another brand mixer. Next goal is to get every attachment. Highly recommended!

A MUST HAVE

angelwolf 10/2/2019

I received this as a birthday gift from my brother & SIL. How I lived without it, I don't know. Actually kneads the bread dough and I can walk away while it is running. Also received the juicer attachment. Fantastic.

PhoeniXXX 9/7/2019

I snatched my kitchen aid at an amazing prize and I LOVE IT. Baking is my passion and now it has become a breeze with my beautiful red kitchen aid. Anndd it kneads the dough beautifully. No mess! I just wish the wire whisk was a little more appealing look wise. Steel ones look rough.

Beautiful addition to my kitchen

Chef-on-duty Susan 7/26/2019

I bought this model a few weeks ago. The kitchenaid 500 Pro was my first stand mixer. It worked well for me for the past 10 years. I bought this model because I wanted something a little smaller with a tilt head. I love to cook for my family, including my 4 grandchildren. This is powerful enough to do everything I need it to do. I love the slightly smaller size, and the color. It looks great on my countertop and is easier to move when I need to than the much heavier 500 Pro. It mixes up a double batch of banana bread, my grandchildren's favorite, in no time. It is the perfect addition to my busy kitchen.

LOVE MY MIXER

LittleMissy 4/25/2019

I got tired of trying to use a mixer that could not handle cookie dough. I found this on sale and grabbed it. It is powerful and is able to mix large batches of the heaviest cookie doughs. It is now a pleasure to use the mixer instead of a chore! So glad I made the decision to upgrade to a Kitchen-Aid!

Dream come true!

Liz R. 3/1/2019

I have been wanting one of these for years and this year my son got me one for my Christmas gift! It makes such an amazing difference with my cake making! The whipped cream is so much fluffier when made with the KitchenAid whisk attachment!! I've told my children whenever they want to get me a gift to make it one of the attachments so I could have them ALL! I love how quiet it actually is.

Not sure why I have never owned one of these stand mixers until now. It's very easy to use and does a great job. I enjoy baking and it makes my life so much easier. Excellent product! Very heavy and a little awkward but would not want to be without it.

jomc1125 1/30/2019

Was waiting for my old mixer to go bad before buying a new one! It was two weeks before Christmas and I began mixing cookie dough and ... Luckily I knew exactly what I wanted, went to the store, brought it home, washed it and put it to work. Cookie baking resumed! I only wish the attachments were not so costly!

Not just for baking

Mom K 1/16/2019

I have wanted one of these for years, but thought I would not buy something like this for myself. My hubby gave me this for Christmas. I love it! Cannot wait to make pasta. People think this is something to have only if you like to bake things. It is way more than that! Don't wait for someone to buy it for you!

Very little room between top of bowl & the mixer

Nona’sKitchen1 1/15/2019

Overall, this unit performs perfectly! The only problem I have is the lack of open space between the top of the bowl and the bottom of the mixer arm when it is in locked position. My parents had the 6 quart stand KitchenAid mixer and it had a lot of room and distance vertically from the top of the bowl to the bottom of the mixer arm, which made it very easy to stir and add ingredients… I honestly did not look at the difference between the 6 quart and a 4 1/2 quart, I just thought it was a smaller bowl... in hindsight, the sales price is exactly the same for both units and I didn't realize I was buying the smaller one because the store obviously didn't have the 6 quart on the shelf so I didn't think about it for my first time purchase. If I could make one design request for the smaller 4.5 quart unit, it would be to raise up the mixer arm and give you more vertical clearance like the 6 quart unit. This mixer will probably be passed down to my grandchildren many years to come and I would recommend these KitchenAid stand mixer's to anyone!

My husband got this for me for Christmas and so far I love it! My only gripe is that the mixer attachment doesn't get close enough to the bottom of the bowl to beat/whip less than 3-4 egg whites or mix stuff that doesn't come far up enough.
