Lowest Price KitchenAid KHM5APWH 5-Speed Ultra Power Hand Mixer, White
Excellent hand mixer! At first, I was torn between getting the 5-speed, 7-speed, or the 9-speed. I was afraid that the 5-speed would not be as powerful as the latter two. However, I ended up going with the 5-speed as a trial and because it was much cheaper! Needless to say, the 5-speed has done the job! I hardly ever go up to the top 2 speeds anyway and my baking and cooking has become much faster and more efficient with this hand mixer! There are 3 different types of attachments: the regular whisk-like ones as pictured, a cork-screw looking attachment for mixing thicker ingredients such as dough, and a stick attachment for smoothies. All attachments work great and are very easy to clean. I would highly recommend this item! The Kitchenaid brand is reliable and it compliments other Kitchenaid items in my kitchen!Get more detail about KitchenAid KHM5APWH 5-Speed Ultra Power Hand Mixer, White.
Low Price West Bend 41135 12-Speed Stand Mixer with 2 Mixing Bowls, White
I love this mixer and i got it on a gold box deal last month so it was affordable. (This review is based on 1 month usage. If things go wrong, i will surely update my review accordingly)
Pros:
1) It has 2 bowls. This is a great feature, cause u do not have to hurry up and clean up the bowl after one use and then use it for something else. For example, when i make cakes-some cakes need 2 bowls, one for the egg whites to be whisked and the other for egg yolks to be mixed with sugar. Other example: one cake is used for the cake mixture and the other one for the icing. in this case i do not have to wash the previous bowl and i let it sit in the dishwasher for it to be washed later. As it has 2 bowls of such different sizes you are free to use any bowl according to the size of the preparation.
2) The mixer comes apart and you can store it in any kitchen cabinet easily. When it comes apart there are 2 smaller pieces of the mixer which need lesser space and height for storage. This is awesome, cause it works for people with less space too.
3) Handling and Cleaning the bowls is so easy because they are not plastic or glass- they are made of steel..yaaay!! i love this feature too.
Cons:
1) The bowl does not move on its own many a times. I am guessing, it must be something to do with the functioning. Maybe some speeds have it and some do not! Well, i do not know but i am guessing here. The instructions say nothing about it! So I have to monitor it and move the bowl manually by continuously giving it light pushes.
2) The bigger bowl is very wide and short- unlike kitchen aid stand mixer, which seems narrower and taller. Because of this feature, we do need to continuously scrape out and feed the contents to the beaters/dough hooks otherwise they keep working in the same dough and leave the dry dough at the sides and other side of the bowl cause as i said before the bowl does not move many a times and it is very wide so it has a other side where dry ingredients can keep accumulating and not get mixed at all without manual help!
Lastly, when i received the mixer, i got one beater with a plastic piece at the tip, which i thought was for not letting the steel surface come in contact with the bowl steel surface. But the other beater had no such plastic piece. I thought i received a wrong piece, but i saw the picture of the beaters on the box, they came in and the picture clearly showed a beater with the plastic piece and the other one without it. I am mentioning this so that no other people would have doubts like i had.
Overall, its a great mixer and i hope it works for a long long time!

Cheapest KitchenAid KV25GOXMC Professional 5 Plus 5-Quart Stand Mixer, Metallic Chrome
What a great piece of machinery! I had an older model (about 35 years older) and wanted a new bright red one for my kitchen decor. It works as well as the older one and I love the wider bowl. It makes adding ingredients much easier. The speed control on the new one allows finer adjustment than the old one did and it seems to be a little more powerful, not that it needed to be.
It is exactly what I have come to expect from KitchenAid - great quality and value.Get more detail about KitchenAid KV25GOXMC Professional 5 Plus 5-Quart Stand Mixer, Metallic Chrome.

Cheap KitchenAid KSM158GBCA 90th Anniversary Limited-Edition 5-Quart Stand Mixer, Candy Apple Red
Yes, I just called a kitchenaid appliance sexy! Pictures do not do this beautiful workhorse justice! The candy apple color is simply stunning! If you are in the market for an Artisan 325 watt kitchenaid mixer, this is THE one to have. The 90th Anniversary edition is available for a limited time this year. I absolutely love the glass mixing bowl. Very sturdy and looks like it is made of a pyrex material. The color drew me in, but the glass bowl sold me! Love the measurement marks on the side, so convienient. Not to mention that you can finally see if your ingredients are all mixed up now. But I will also probably buy a metal bowl to go with this as well. Although completely unneccesary. The whisk, paddle, and dough hook are a coated metal, not the standard white coated ones that came with my KA classic. It is important to know that these new attachmants are hand wash only. DO NOT put these in the dishwasher, the coating will come off and become discolored. Although they look very nice, I would have prefered a metal that could be put in the dishwasher, that is my ONLY complaint with this machine, and it's trivial. If this is an issue for you, then buy the white coated ones, as all attachments are universal.
I will add a picture of my new KA so you will see how this shines! Hope you get one too before they are all gone for good!
Edit- I also wanted to write a quick note for those that had a question about the pour shield compatibility with the glass mixer bowl. It will not work on this bowl because the bowl has a pour spout. This was not an issue for me, but just wanted to be informative. Also, if you lust for the glass mixing bowl, sometime next year KA is going to sell it as an extra for the tilt head models only.
