KitchenAid draws raves for performance and longevity, with reviews calling its stand mixers “workhorses” that last decades and elevate baking, meal prep, and pasta-making—yet they also flag real drawbacks. Many praise the powerful, versatile attachments, sleek design, and easy cleaning, while critiques cite heavy, bulky ergonomics, noise, occasional poor bowl reach/mixing at the bottom, hand-mixer cleaning hassles, and inconsistent durability for certain large appliances and accessories.

Stand mixer is iconic, looks great on the counter and super useful. Not just for baking, I even shred chicken with it.
My kitchen aid stand mixer is a staple during the holiday season. It mixes and kneads my roll out cookie doughs without any effort. If I had a larger kitchen I’d leave it out year round for daily mixing of things like meatloaf of shredding crock pot cooked chicken breast. The only thing that bothers me but is very necessary for functionality, is that it is very heavy to move around.
I absolutely love my stand mixer. The most used item in my kitchen for baking, preparing bread dough, heating veggies & cheese (I have the small attachments). It looks beautiful on my counter top too.
I was gifted a KitchenAid many years ago and it’s a beast! 30 YEARS later and it works just as well as it did brand new. The accessories all fit the model. It’s very heavy and stable. It does the hard work so you don’t have to. This is a product that I can recommend over and over.
Absolutely LOVE my kitchen aid! Cannot live without it. A must for the home baker!

Looks like a piece of art but can be a bit of a pain to use practically and on a regular basis. I would make the attachments more dishwasher safe and also make the sizes more amenable to a one person or a NYC sized apartment living.
I love my kitchen aid. I love that you can choose from so many colors and attachments. If you love to bake and you don’t have one yet you need to add it to your Christmas list.
Having a kitchen aid mixer is life changing! As a frequent baker, I definitely notice a positive difference in the results when I use my kitchen aid vs. by hand.
It's very heavy and takes up a lot of space on the counter, but we also have the pasta maker insert and it's truly so versatile. I use it to make pasta from scratch as well as a general mixer.
Absolutely love my kitchen aid. U use it year round for EVERYTHING. You can’t kill it, it is powerful and never let me down. The array of accessories are amazing. Pasta maker, slicer/shredder and meat grinder to make a few 😉 love the brand and love the mixer!!!
We invested in 3 kitchen aid products as we relied on the quality and reputation of the brand. We have a blender, a robot, and a mixer. They are still functional after 4 years. Except for the blender. It broke after 2 years and was told that the warranty expired. But the support was kind enough to help. So overall, we're happy with the brand, the items seem quality.
Love KitchenAid, half of my kitchen is small appliances from this brand. I've had my stand mixer for over a decade and still works, top notch products!
The KitchenAid mixer is fantastic. It has multiple attachments to perform different functions. Easy to operate and clean. I love to use my kitchenAid mixer. It is well worth the cost.
I was gifted a stand mixer as a wedding gift! This is one of my favorite kitchen items, it is so easy to make bread, cookie dough, cake mixes & icing.

I have a KitchenAid stand mixer that has lasted me 10 years now. I have the tilt head which is not as strong as the bowl-lift but it can handle anything I throw at it as a home baker! I also have the meat grinder attachment and am looking to buy more attachments. I love that even though my mixer is 10 years old, it is still compatible with any new attachments! It really shows that they want you to use their appliances for a long time. I also have a KitchenAid food processor and stick blender - the food processor is irreplaceable and I didn’t find much use for the stick blender in the kitchen, so I repurposed it to make bar soap now!

I have a kitchenaid stand mixer and food processor and can live without them. If they had the colors of the mixers when I bought mine I would have loved it. Their products have stood the test and are excellent quality.
love my stand mixer - super sturdy and so many attatchments
Literally have had a KitchenAid mixer for as long as I can remember and it has always worked wonderfully.

I had a classic Kitchenaid mixer for years, the type with the moveable head. Eventually it wore out(way took wobbly). I replaced with the larger one tha has a fixed head. It’s been great in every way a mixer needs to be

It would be nicer to be able to pour in ingredients without having to remove the bowl

KitchenAid products are synonymous with high quality. This has been my experience but my machine doesn't always deliver. It struggles at times with doughs and dense mixtures and the motor is noticeably struggling by the sound. The head of the machine bounces up and down as it's mixing and needs to be physically held down.
