The details

Everything about the design of the KitchenAid 6-Qt. Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer is convenient — its bowl-lift design provides sturdy support for stability when mixing heavy ingredients or large batches, and its unique mixing action reaches every part of the bowl, leaving nothing behind.

Along with a 10-speed control panel, five rubber feet on the bottom of the mixer help stabilize it while in use and protect whatever surface it sits on top of. Plus, the package includes a burnished metal flat beater, dough hook, wire whip, and stainless steel bowl attachment.

What reviewers are saying

There’s no doubt that the stand mixer is built to last. Amazon shoppers also praised this kitchen essential for being easy to use, easy to clean, and great value for the money.

“I bake a lot and usually large batches,” shared one five-star reviewer. “The 6 quart bowl makes it easy to double a lot of my recipes and the motor is powerful enough to handle thick batter. It also looks great on my counter.”

While it’s a great option for home bakers shopping for themselves, the KitchenAid 6-Qt. Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer is also a great gift item.

“I bought this as a Christmas gift for my wife and she loves it,” added another. “My oldest daughter was the first to use it to knead dough for making buns and it worked superbly. My wife loves it. I hope it works for a very long time.”

Although negative reviews for this top-rated mixer are few and far between, some shoppers have noted that they found this mixer too bee on the loud side, and its bowl set-up can take some getting used to..

“The mixer is noisy! More noisy than my Hamilton Beach and getting the bowl in the pins is a task! I find myself using my old mixer because of the noise,” noted one reviewer.

Splurge-worthy, or not?

For $250 off retail price, the KitchenAid 6-Qt. Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer’s quality, value, and ease of use scream “add to cart.”

Available in three colours, it’s pretty much the finishing touch to any home baker’s kitchen ahead of the holiday season.
