Handles large recipes well, November 24, 2009

I received this mixer as a gift after my SunBeam MixMaster died trying to mix a doubled sugar cookie recipe. The first recipe I tried with this mixer called for 4 1/2 cups of flour as its first ingredient! The recipe said to mix in as much of the flour mixture as possible with the mixer and mix in any remaining flour by hand, but this mixer handled it with ease. I've since been able to double recipes with no problem; something I wasn't able to do previously. I am very satisfied with this product.

Waited a long time to have this, November 24, 2009
I am so happy to finally have a Kitchen Aid and this one is a very pretty periwinkle/cornflower blue color
Mixer, November 23, 2009
It is on the counter so that it is available all the time. I am the hubby and I don't have to go in to finish mixing by hand for the wifey. It does an awewome job. Amazon delivery was much better than promised, almost spoiled my XMAX surprise. Removable parts are easy to clean, so you aren't afraid to use it. It does an excellent job on mixes, like bread and cookie dough.
Cant do without this, November 23, 2009
As a baker I can honestly say that this is the one product in my kitchen I could not live without. Very quality design and easy to clean. Everyone knows about this so I would go nuts describing. But to all you new bakers out there just buy it.....you wont regret.
