Hands down the best mixer ever!! My mom has used her pro my entire life (I'm 50). She gave me one and I use it to this day. My oldest daughter got her own place and I got her this model. She is now married with a baby and will be using it her entire life. I've now purchased this model for my son's wife to be as a shower gift. I'm so excited to keep the tradition going & give my girls something they will cherish and use their entire lives. I'm sure they will be giving them to their girls as well. These are the toughest workhorse in your kitchen!! Every kitchen should have one, just like an oven or fridge.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) It is great kitchen helper, but the lock of the motor head does not work properly. The motor head jumps when dough hook works.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Bought the Artisan Mixer to replace the Classic Mixer which we used a lot for over 20 years. The Artisan was on sale at the time and it has a bigger bowl. It is working great - have made pizza dough, muffins, cakes etc., and works great. All the attachments that we had for the Classic (Pasta Attachment, Meat Grinder) also work on the Artisan Mixer.
