The Kitchen Aid KSM150,'Artisan' stand mixer has been returned to Kitchen Aid because it was severely underpowered at the low speeds, struggling even on cookie dough. The replacement that arrived recently has sufficient power, but is noisier than my original Kitchen Aid mixer (30 yrs. old), the edges of the plastic knobs are 'sharp' and annoying-I'll have to sand them down- and the metal trim really looks cheap!Further, the new machine vibrates from side to side much more than my old one ever did. If this product is 'made in the USA as claimed, then I'm afraid it's going the way of the U.S automakers
