Easier to move & pretty damn powerful for its size. I have had the large Pro model of this Kitchenaid. It is a wonderful machine. But it is heavy. Unless you have some place to keep it on the counter, or at least at waist level to lug it around, it is HEAVY to use. I read that people tend to concentrate on the wattage of the machine. More important is the torque–how the energy of the motor gets translated into working power.
Would have given 5 stars, except for the flat beater. I love my 40-year old KitchenAid and I love my new one. However, the flat beater, with it’s flimsy plastic coating is disappointing. This is a higher-end mixer and should have a flat beater from which the plastic coating doesn’t crack off. Better yet, a stainless steel beater…and not the “coated” metal one they offer. I use this mixer constantly and this was also an issue with my old one. Why does KitchenAid sell such a great mixer with such a crappy flat beater? I don’t know. Can…
Saves your arms, excellent for moderate use This is a lovely mixer that I traded for an Artisan because that one was red. I bought it to make cookies after my hand mixer started to smoke during a particularly intense doughing session. I used it primarily for that and pizza crusts. Things that can be mixed with a handheld whisk, I opt for that instead.
