Viking Range Stainless/Gray Stand Mixer 7 Qt. Review

I just purchased this mixer and so far I love it! I own a small bakery, and my other two stand mixers, a Kitchenaid Pro-600 and the Cuisinart 7-quart, both had issues. For some reason the powers that be at Kitchenaid made the attachments out of a metal that cannot go in the dishwater, or it turns black. One of the dumbest ideas ever..and the Cuisinart was starting to make funny noises and the tilt head no longer stayed all the way down..we have to hold it down. So I bought the Viking, even though the biggest negative was the noise of the motor and "mixer noise" from the constant use of mixers often gives me a headache. What noise? The Viking is MUCH quieter than either the Kitchaid or the Cuisinart..we couldn't believe it after reading the reviews. So far it works great, and we really put our mixers to the test. We'll see how it holds up in a month or so, but it is the quietest mixer I've ever owned.Get more detail about Viking Range Stainless/Gray Stand Mixer 7 Qt..

KitchenAid K4SSWH 4 -1/2 Quart Bowl Lift Stand Mixer, White Top Quality

I just bought my KitchenAid K4SSWH this week and I love it. I haven't tried to find attachments yet but understand you get the ones for the K5 to fit this one. It had plenty of power (300W) to get through anything I put in the bowl. I used it to mix 3 cakes, whipped cream (with the basic beater), and made a crumb topping by just throwing in the flour and butter and letting it do the rest. Overall great buy!Get more detail about KitchenAid K4SSWH 4 -1/2 Quart Bowl Lift Stand Mixer, White.
