KitchenAid Nickel Pearl Stand Mixer:
The Professional 600 Series is KitchenAid's most powerful stand mixer. Redesigned for the serious home baker, this powerful stand mixer features a 575-watt motor with a heavy-duty transmission and a 6-quart bowl combined to give you the power and capacity to mix 13 dozen cookies, 8 pounds of mashed potatoes and more than 8 loaves of bread. KitchenAid's unique planetary mixing action provides faster, more thorough blending of ingredients all the way to the edge of the bowl without ever rotating it. The rugged, all-metal quality construction and commercial-style motor protection assure a long life of trouble-free, dependable and quiet operation. Other features include a professional style bowl-lift that makes it easy to lift the bowl into the mixing position, a 10-speed slide control that ranges from a very fast whip to a very slow stir and a power hub for use with attachments (sold separately). Included with the stand mixer: a burnished aluminum flat beater, PowerKnead spiral dough hook (designed to replicate hand-kneading to handle 20 percent more dough than previous models), a professional wire whip and pouring shield.

by Elva (Long Beach, CA) 3 reviews I recently purchased my Kitchen-Aid because I was taking a cake decorating class and my Hamilton Beach hand mixer was just not cutting it! I've always wanted a Kitchen-Aid, what better opportunity? It's a very powerful motor which I will need Christmas time when I make tamales - the masa is really tough & I think my Kitchen-Aid can handle it.
by JoAnne (Crossville, TN) 3 reviews Love. Love. Love this mixer. We are going to very happy together for a very long time. I gave this mixer a 4 rating due to the 4 things to note.
4 THINGS TO NOTE:
~~~ Locking the bowl onto the stand is a little tricky... but I think I'm getting the hang of it. When I read the booklet... don't remember that being addressed.
~~~ It takes a moment when you start the mixer for the mixer to 'GO'. There's a delay. 'Go' slow. At first, I thought this was a disappointment .... compared to my 3 qt KitchenAid mixer (zoom zoom).
~~~ IF you are whipping 3 egg whites ... the whipper doesn't touch them. If you add ONE more egg white, there is success. I use XtraLarge eggs.
~~~ Seems to throw the batter against the walls of the bowl more than usual and you need to stop and scrap down. Seems like I see Martha do that more often now that I am in the know.
by kirk (Menasha, WI) 1 review After making 18 loafs of bread , 5 batches of cookies, 3 batches of muffins and 4 cakes I absolutly love this mixer over my old one. I would recommend this mixer to anyone that is looking to update or buy a new one and with the price at cooking.com you can't go wrong. Thankyou for carrying quality products at a resonable price, I will deffinetly shop at you'r site again
by Peggy (Charlotte, NC) 9 reviews This 6 quart stand mixer from Kitchen Aid is the best I have ever owned.
It is extremely sturdy, with a huge bowl, and it has been able to handle everything I have thrown at it.
No wobbling, no hesitating, no whining.
I find I spend much less time scraping down the sides of the bowl with this new wider bowl. The fact that I can adjust the position of the paddle, etc. with one little screw, makes all the difference in the world as to whether my ingredients get mixed together or not. No more finding flour or cream cheese left on the bottom or corners of the bowl.
The fact that the bowl lifts up to the mixer is something new to me and I love it. My old mixer was a 'flip-top' and I used to worry it would flip right into the next county, if I wasn't careful. No need to worry now! The lever is quick and smooth, and when you lock it into place, you know you are ready (and safe) to go.
Would purchase again
