Got this mixer over 2 years ago and it sounded terrible from day 1 - a loud whine that my other Kitchenaid mixers never had - but it seemed to function all right, yet never seemed to have as much power as I thought it should. The more I used it the less power it seemed to have, especially kneading bread dough. It would get very hot and could not fully knead even soft doughs, then finally stopped altogether. Repairs would cost over $200 so I'm looking for a replacement. Additionally the bowl did not rise far enough in the upper position to allow the paddle or whisk to fully incorporate ingredients at the bottom of the bowl- it was necessary to lift the bowl manually to accomplish this, a little risky at high speeds.Since I already have several attachments I'll look at another Kitchenaid mixer, but am hoping their quality control has improved.Get more detail about KitchenAid Limited Edition Pro 620 Stand Mixer KP26M8XMC.

Low Price KitchenAid KP26M1XDP Professional 600 Series 6-Quart Stand Mixer, Dark Pewter
We purchased this mixer last year before Thanksgiving. We got a wonderful deal on it, and decided to purchase it although I'm not a professional in the kitchen! I've ended up using it more that I could have imagined! We did have the mixer start making a knocking noise once, and contacted Kitchenaid. Even when we could get the noise again, the service representative quickly stated that is not acceptable and shipped out a replacement. It was by far the BEST service I have ever received! I am extremely happy with the product and the company's service.Get more detail about KitchenAid KP26M1XDP Professional 600 Series 6-Quart Stand Mixer, Dark Pewter.

Save Sunbeam 2349-030 Heritage Series 12-Speed Stand Mixer, Red
The first time I use my Heritage Edition stand mixer I was making a cake after 7 minutes beating the butter with sugar its started to smoke I thought this was normal since it was new, then after 7 more minutes it got very hot and the bowl stoped turning, I had to use my hand mixer to finish my cake after baking it, it was ruined how sad. Its been a year now that I have the Sunbeam stand mixer & its still getting very hot. The sad thing is that I make cakes for a living and after one batter the machine still gets hot and the bowl stops turning. I have to wait for it to cool down to start with another cake, I should off gotten a kitchen aid.. Get more detail about Sunbeam 2349-030 Heritage Series 12-Speed Stand Mixer, Red.

Cheap Sunbeam 2364 Heritage Series 350-Watt Stand Mixer, Red
Well..I read the previous reviews and thought the mixer couldn't be all that bad. I paid attention to those who had bought the "plastic" mixers and how they weren't stable so I bought the die cast metal. The price was right,it had all the features and size bowl I wanted, and it looks so nice so i thought I'd try it. Well....I used it twice and sadly to say, it's going back to the store.
The first time I made a batch of oatmeal cookies. Creaming the ingredients was fine, but as soon as I got the flour and oatmeal in the mix, the mixer and bowl started rocking and jerking as the mix hit the beaters. Decided I can't turn away from that for a second! The second time was a coffee cake batter, smooth & creamy and no rocking this time, but the bowl wouldn't spin to mix the batter. Plus then I started to get the overheated motor smell.
Not sure what I'll get now cause I really don't want to spend $200+ on a mixer, but this one wasn't it.Get more detail about Sunbeam 2364 Heritage Series 350-Watt Stand Mixer, Red.
Buying Cuisinart SM-70MB 7-Quart Stand-Mixer Stainless-Steel Mixing Bowl
I am in love with my Cuisinart stand mixer, but wanted another bowl to reduce the need to clean up in the middle of baking. I found this bowl for $100 and more on other sites - and was thrilled to see it at Amazon for such a reasonable price. It's the genuine item, and it came quickly. If you bake alot - especially multiple batches of the same thing - splurge on this - it will save you time!Get more detail about Cuisinart SM-70MB 7-Quart Stand-Mixer Stainless-Steel Mixing Bowl.
