KitchenAid KT2651X Epicurean 475 Watts Stand Mixer

Pros: Stylish, easy to use, easy clean up.
Cons: A little bit pricey, but worth every penny.

I received this fabulous mixer as a wedding anniversary present. It came with the standard attachments - dough hook, whip, and batter mixer. All of which are coated and super easy to clean up! There is also a large variety of attachments that can be ...

Pros: Large capacity, high quality, does an incredible job. Easy to use/clean.
Cons: High cost, very heavy, large, noisy.

This mixer is just incredible. It does everything but the dishes. Unfortunately, it's also very heavy, too heavy to be lifting into cabinets, so it lives on my kitchen counter full-time. Fortunately, mine is in the gorgeous retro jadeite green ...

Pros: Wonderful Customer Service, Powerful, Large Capacity, Stylish (Well, kind of)
Cons: Heavy, wont fit under my cabinets, A tad pricey, Premature failure

Well, after using the pasta maker for the third time on my old 4.5 quart Kitchenaid, it finally blew out after 8 years. I loved that mixer, and a pretty penny was put out for it too. So, that landed in the dumpster and I went out in search of a new mixer ...

Pros: KitchenAid Reputation
Cons: Full Retail Price (But I got a GREAT sale at Kohl's!)

Originally received the Ultra but returned it holding out for the Epicurean. It was WELL worth the wait. Kitchen Aid style is a slick combination of workhorse industrial and decorator's choice colors. Bowl lift is marvelous (as long as you...

Pros: Heavy construction, large mixing capacity, good warranty service.
Cons: Repeated poor switch quality.

I received the 6 qt. Epicurian as a Christmas gift in December of '01. I was thrilled! I loved the style, the power, the Cobalt blue color and could not have been happier, until...I went to use the mixer one day and it would not turn on despite being...

Pros: A great machine for kneading bread dough and mixing double batches of cookies
Cons: Although it will do it well, this is lots of firepower for beating 2 eggs.

I got a refurbished Epicurean from Kitchen Aid via E-Bay auction. This was an indulgent birthday present to myself, but now I'm kicking myself for not having done this years earlier. It whips through tasks like beating egg whites, and a double batch of...

Pros: Sturdy, large, flexible, and wonderful
Cons: Mild feed tube confusions

I admit it - I'm a kitchen freak, and so is my husband. We love to cook and we love kitchen gadgets. One of our first kitchen gadgets when we moved in together years ago was a 5 quart KitchenAid stand mixer - and oh, did we use and abuse it!

...

Pros: Large capacity; strong motor
Cons: Speed switch defective; No tilt head

I bought this mixer in December 2001, to upgrade from my 4 1/2 quart KitchenAid. Once you're used to the tilt head, this design is not as satisfactory. You must lower the bowl & drop the beater into your bowl of whatever before you can remove the bowl....

Pros: Double batch of bread with ease. Relatively quiet. Very stable at higher speeds.
Cons: I haven't found any so far.

My husband gave me this for a Christmas present. I use it weekly for all sorts of things. I can mix a double batch of bread dough without any difficulty at all. It's easy enough to put together to use for smaller jobs, too. The housing is of heavy duty...

Pros: nicely styled, strong motor, huge!
Cons: a little loud, huge! and... expensive

I have the Imperial Gray Epicurean 6 Quart Stand Mixer. These are the things that I really love about it:
-the stainless steal bowl is big enough to triple a cookie recipe and double a bread recipe
-it's very stylish - looks good...

Pros: Big bowl, plenty of power
Cons: Speed switch is poor quality

The KitchenAid brand goes hand in hand with Hobart. Hobart makes those beefy industrial kitchen appliences. I have a five foot tall mixer at work. Built like a tank. We needed a smaller mixer for some R&D work in the laboratory (don't ask). I bought one...

Pros: Warranty, Power, Brand name.
Cons: Head doesn't tilt.

After burning out many hand mixers, I finally decided to buy what I really wanted, a KitchenAid stand mixer. My Grandmother had one of these and my Aunt still uses it.
I bought it in white because I expect to have it for a very long time and don't...

Pros: Easy to use
Cons: Heavy

This is a wonderful time saver. Mixes everything fast and easy so you don't have to use a weak hand mixer. It's a little bit nosy, but that is minor in comparison to the time saved. I leave mine on the counter so I have easy access to it. It would be...

Pros: Strong motor, 6 speeds, great design
Cons: additional attachments are expensive

After reading the reviews on epinions.com about this mixer I went ahead and bought one. My wife blesses it every day, and has started baking more often.

It comes with a sleek design and has easy accessibility. The bowl is 6 Qt, more than...

Pros: Wonderful capacity, strong motor
Cons: Takes up some space on the counter but is well worth it!

Stylish and dependable, that's what the Epicurean is. It can mix the toughest of doughes and it still keeps on working better than anything. It has three different blades it comes with and with these three you can do any of the mixing you will need....
