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.

This brand is literally THE brand for stand mixers. Once you get the main one, they have lots of different attachments you can get for anything you might need. They're pretty expensive, but they last forever.
There is nothing in this world that lives as long as a KitchenAid mixer, period. I've had their handheld mixers, stand-up mixers...all of the options. They are all amazing. If you enjoy baking or cooking, and you don't have a standing mixer, you're missing out. They have a ton of attachments for it so you can do everything from making your own pasta to grinding your own meat. It's one of those life investment things that you'll have forever, and probably give to your first born one day.
I received the popular KitchenAid mixer from my aunt as a wedding gift. I selected the black one to go with any kitchen decor and it came with the big mixer bowl as well as three different paddle attachments—a hook for dough, a whisk for liquids, and another for medium-weight mixtures. It's super easy to use with clear settings right on the side of the machine, and it's not difficult to clean. BUT, it is really heavy and so you have to take that into account for storage. We originally had it displayed on the counter, but found it was getting a little dirty/dusty that way and so we have it in a cabinet now. Overall, it's a great kitchen staple you can have for a long, long time and use for many things!
I tried the mixer and it’s very sturdy.
The pasta attachment for my stand mixer was worth every penny. Fresh pasta has become a Friday night tradition in my home - impressive enough for dinner guests but simple enough for a cooking enthusiast.

Standing mixer is great, super heavy and a bit tricky to get the bowl in and out but it lasts forever. I would recommend getting a pad that it can slide on if its going to stay on your counter top
I absolutely love KitchenAid products—they’re reliable, well-designed, and built to last. From their iconic stand mixer to smaller appliances, everything feels high-quality and durable. They make cooking and baking easier while also looking great on the counter. Definitely a kitchen essential!
Really sturdy and good company
high quality items and great for my baking needs

Can’t go wrong with kitchen aid products. Quality products that are well worth the money. You’ll have for your entire life.
These are the gold standard mixers for a reason. They work so well and they work forever. I'm very averse to kitchen tools (too much to clean up/not a great use of counter space) but our KitchenAid never disappoints, is easy to clean, and super handy.
she's the GOAT, what more can i say? I've had mine for 10+ years and it's the only kitchen appliance that flew over with me from the east coast. Would do again because it could survive the apocalypse and mmm the apocalypse has never tasted better.

This is a phenomenal product and really will last a lifetime. With that said, it's not made for city kitchens, and many of its benefits can only be accessed with ample counter space. I can think of so many times that I'd love to reach for my KitchenAid, but just can't be bothered to get it out from the high shelf, and so I make the recipe a bit worse or use another appliance. If you have the space, it's a wonderful investment (and they go on sale periodically for 30% off, and you could purchased a refurbished or used model), and also a wonderful machine to pour time into. Kitchen Aid stand mixers really reward continued use and institutional knowledge, which you can develop over years. It's a workhorse, but only if you've got the stable for it.
I love my 4.5 QT mixer, works like a charm and also looks great on my kitchen counter! Good quality that will last a lifetime.
There's nothing better than that KitchenAid stand mixer! Works like a charm. The OG is big and heavy, so I'll consider adding the smaller version to my collection soon.

Great and long lasting products. I have my grandmother’s kitchen aid, but I have heard that the newer ones do not hold up as well.

I’ve had our KitchenAid Mixer and other appliances for years, many headed down through our family. The design, the quality, and ease of use make these excellent kitchen tools. I especially love the new designs and bowls they’ve released. Even if on the counter, it’s a statement piece and we found so many uses for the mixer from pies, to breads, to pastas.

Love my KitchenAid. Easy to use, always works when I need it. My only complaint is it takes up a fair amount of space on the counter, or requires me to move it and it's pretty heavy.
My mixer is lovely and has lasted for ages! I use it weekly for small and large products! Easy to use easy to assemble and easy to clean! Also everyone that comes in my kitchen, complements my cute mixer.
I got the big 6qt mixer with all of the attachments as a gift for my husband and he absolutely loves it! It has been a huge time saver, especially when preparing food for family gatherings and during the holidays. This brand is very reliable and easy to use and worth the investment.
