Save Viking Range White Stand Mixer 7 Qt.

I received the Viking for Christmas and am a very experienced baker. I did thorough research on mixers and basically wanted a more heavy-duty mixer to do multiple cookie batches. I have to say from the first time I used it, it had the 'motor smell', skipped across the counter, and makes alot of noise from parts banging back and forth. These problems occur no matter what how large or small the recipes are. Yikes what an expensive mistake!!! I can't caution people enough -- do not buy this mixer!! I've had Kitchen Aids for years and NEVER had problems like this -- the Viking is an INFERIOR product and I wish I never bought it! Get more detail about Viking Range White Stand Mixer 7 Qt..
