KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red Review


I purchased this mixer a couple of months ago. I have used it several times and love how it works. I had purchased the mixer based on Kitchen Aids reputation and on reviews submitted by others. I purchased the Artisan model over the larger model based on those reviews. I am very pleased with the Artisan model so far. The reviews I read were right on the money. This mixer works as advertised. I would highly recommend purchasing the Artisan model Kitchen Aid Mixer.Get more detail about KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red.

KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red Top Quality


I bought this mixer 3 years ago but wanted to wait before reviewing it to make sure it lasted and it has! This is probably the single best item made by KitchenAid. Writing more about how great this mixer is, is a waste of time because everyone who knows mixers knows this is the one to get.

I will say this...you might consider buying it at Williams and Sonoma because they have a return policy that never expires! So if i goes bad (or even if you don't want it anymore) afer 5 or 10 years you can return it for a full refund. You will probably pay more but to some it might be worth the assurance since I have heard occassional reports of these mixers (most likely refurbished) going bad with minimum use.

The head of the mixer sits too close to the center of the bowl. It is next to impossible to add ingredients while the mixer is running. A plastic attachment is included that's supposed to fix the problem, but it doesn't. It is a two piece gadget that comes apart too easily, and its tilt it not sufficient to get ingredients into the bowl without the use of a spatula. The planetary mixing action misses the center of the bowl and does not get close to the edges, making for LOTS of stopping, lifting the head and scraping the sides, all while balancing the plastic tilty gadget to keep it from falling into your mixture.

It barely has enough power to make usng the dough hooks worthwhile, and without the head securely locked, the thing rears up at the slightest load. However, it does look really good sitting on the kitchen counter. If you like to cook, this mixer only frustrates.

Aahh, the luxury... I yearned and pined for this mixer for seven long years. Then, one fine day in September I spotted the sale I had been waiting for - Amazon had this baby for far less than half the asking price - I had a rebate to mail in afterward, too. That was it - I took the bait and my DH has been munching on home-baked goodies ever since. To think that once I was afraid that it wouldn't live up to the fantasy! To watch it turn and spin - to see the doughs and batters come to life... it is truly a dream come true for any aspiring baker. This sweet machine is the center of my kitchen.

One of my favorite and first memories is helping my grandmother in the kitchen, using the mixer. Unfortunately, she passed away when I was very young and who knows what happened to the mixer... I wanted one of these my whole life, and after much debating I finally got it a couple of years ago. Paid for next day shipping, and I took the day off work so I would be home when this came, I almost cried tears of joy when I opened the box. I love this thing, it is the best!! I am so happy with it, I even named it. (Hey, guys can name their cars....) Lives up to my expectations and beyond. Bread dough is a snap with this, beats the fluffiest egg whites...

I really want to review Amazon on this purchase more than the mixer, as we all know this mixer is the best thing since sliced bread, if you watch the Food Network, they all have this mixer. 'nuff said...

It's really Amazon I'm giving 5 stars - when I got this mixer upon first use it made an odd metal on metal sound in the lower gears, the head "wobbled" and had a strong burning plastic smell. Obviously, no matter how good a product is, they all have lemons. So, I requested a replacement from Amazon. They processed everything lightening fast with no hesitation. I have my new one sitting here already, they were having problems with me printing a return label, so a an advanced credit is in my bank account for the shipping and I have 30 days to return the first one. I love Amazon. Not to mention I got the absolutely most fantastic price on this mixer (and the $25 discount on top of that)! By the way, if you shop on Amazon much, the Prime pays for itself over and over. For instance, the shipping on just this item was $21 Get more detail about KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red.

Save KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red


It was yuck at first sight when I first crossed paths with a Kitchenaid stand mixer in a cooking class. There's something about the aesthetics that really bug me about this machine and I bought a food processor and an immersion blender for a total of $220 to avoid the need for this type of machine. And if I was going to get this type of machine, I had decided I would get a non Kitchenaid with a glassbowl and less repulsive looking head or an Electrolux assistant if I became some kind of bread maker.

I bought this because
(1) my kitchenaid food processor would hop when mixing bread dough (one cup of flour!)
(2) $167.11 is a good price even though red, blue and black were the only colors - I knew that this machine would be useful to me
and the real reason
(3) the electic pasta extruder would help me make chinese dough recipes from Eileen Yin-Fei Lo's cookbooks

My family is happy expecting better breads and other goodies but all I want are homemade dumpling wrappers and super flattened Northern Chinese breads. But this machine means I will now be able to make lump free (ew) cream cheese frosting for cupcakes and cream butter with sugar or eggs by machine rather than manually.

I would never have gotten this at its regular $300 price or even at $200 but the double promo discounts pushed the price close to a cheaper but poorly rated Sunbeam and I really wanted the pasta extruder. Sigh. If I end up loving this machine, I will have to amend this review. The red matches my knife block and my isi soda siphon and cream whipper and I cleared a space for it on my counter just as if I really wanted this machine all along and as if red not white or wasabi is the color for me. I don't have to see the side profile of the machine from where it is placed and I have the other red items grouped around it so it's one bunch of red that the mixer doesn't lock the eyes.

It's not as gigantic as the one I remember from the cooking school which was the original design. This bowl has a flat bottom so it can rest on the counter. I was scolded for not paying $400 for the Professional model but this one has planetary motion and I still don't believe that these machines are worth their suggested retail prices. The sale supposed to be through tomorrow but I see that only the Cobalt Blue is still available at this special price.

This not that big but somewhat heavy machine was delivered in its original box without an extra brown box to protect it. I found it in the rain; the box can't be kept and the machine did get wet. There's really nothing included in the box to reflect what a heavy decision this mixer purchase is to many people - no leather bound manual or ceremonious unpacking process. It came with the small hooks (everything was smaller than I expected), the whisk must be hand washed(!), there is the registration card and a brief trilingual manual and some recipes. I also got a complimentary packet of Splenda which I will discard unopened.

p.s. with the bowl removed, the machine in profile casts a shadow that looks exactly like H.R. Geiger's AlienGet more detail about KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red.

My fiance decided to get me this KitchenAid mixer for Christmas this year. It arrived early, so he's been letting me make Christmas goodies with it. I have never made chewier, moist cookies! My recipe has always been praised, but this machine transformed them!

I also made French bread from scratch! Who knew I'd ever make bread? It's delicious and couldn't have been easier with this machine.

Other things I've already made (it's only been a week!) is moist, very well-mixed meatloaf, banana bread, and amazing pizza dough - the recipe included in the manual.

It's addictive! I want to use my machine everyday. Clean up is so easy that it's worth it too!

I think everyone should have a KitchenAid mixer at some point in their lives - your kitchen experience will change immediately for the better.Get more detail about KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red.

This seems to be the best stand mixer and is sort of a staple in any cook's kitchen. Honestly I don't think I've ever heard of another brand's stand mixer being mentioned. I haven't tested various stand mixers but I think my KitchenAid 5-quart is awesome. It mixes well at various speeds. I don't think it's missing anything or needs any sort of improvement - as far as I can tell after baking a couple of pies and a cake. If you love to cook (which I do, and have recently developed an interest in baking) then you need this. I think every cook needs this stand mixer. If you're bothering to read these reviews for this item, I would think that means you're seriously considering buying it. Let me tell you that this is the stand mixer to get, so go ahead and get it. Go on, go ahead and get it. The sooner you order it, the sooner you'll have it and will be able to make all sorts of dishes and desserts:)Get more detail about KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red.

Buying KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red


A week before Christmas I began making dozens of cookies. My old $19.00 mixer started its usual grind in not wanting to finish the project. Alas, it gave up the ghost and I told my hubby I was going to get another one after the holidays. Lo and behold, I received the KitchenAid mixer for Christmas. I am delighted and tried it on Christmas day making the chocolate cream puffs in the recipe book. I LOVE THIS MACHINE!!! It doesn't howl, grind, groan, moan or any of the other sounds emitting from an "el-cheap-o" mixer. The attachments are easy to use with a snap in and twist mechanism. The stainless steel bowl locks in with ease and the handle is balanced properly for easily handling. There is a flour guard for placement over the bowl to keep the dry ingredients from flying all over the place. All the directions are easy to follow, i.e., care and cleaning. If any of you are like me in purchasing a cheap product...STOP...STOP...STOP! Invest in this mixer because you won't be disappointed. Even though it may be costly, it will pay for itself in the long run. It's a gem, an absolute gem!Get more detail about KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red.

I received this mixer from my Mom and Stepdad for Christmas this year after torturing my family about it for months. I was just gonna go out and buy it myself, but I am glad I didn't since it means alot more coming from them. Anyways, I opened it yesterday and christened it this morning with a fresh loaf of banana bread. Just came out of the oven and other than overbaking it (my personal style of burning everything!) it is perfect. I found this mixer to be very easy to use, little mess to speak of and fast clean up. Way better than having 3 different mixing bowls going at one time with a hand mixer that has been wanting to kick out for the last year! I am in no way shape or form a good chef, but somehow I think this baby will change that! Enjoy!Get more detail about KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red.

Purchase KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red


I have been wanted this mixer for a few years now, but have always had some excuse not to get it.... takes up too much space, overkill, too much money, etc. But this year I told my husband I wanted the Red Artisan instead of jewelry for Christmas. He thought I was nuts. I went and picked it out to be sure I got the one I had been dreaming of for so long. I thought I'd need a lot of time to figure everything out, but it was so simple to set up and get going. Christmas Night I got it out of the box and washed it all up and put it in its permanent spot on my counter (I did find the room). It was all ready for me this morning to make a cheesecake for a family dinner tonight. It went through 4 blocks of cream cheese like nobody's business. I'm glad I finally got this time-saving machine and quit making excuses of why not to get one. I'm sure I'll enjoy using this for many years to come. (P.S.

I was needing a new mixer and commented to my husband what I really would like and he said that he would pick one up later on. That evening I went surfing and found one that was a step up from what we had seen earlier - at the same price! I bought it and then told him.

The day that it arrived I made bread. It is the first time in years and I loved how easily the Kitchen Aid worked. It is noiseless in comparison to so many other mixers and it has handled everything that I have put it through so far....from biscuits and breads, to candies of different kinds. I love it.

Where To Buy KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red


I purchased the Empire Red Artisan for $199.99 minus a $25 Amazon discount. I rated it 4 stars because of 2 minor quirks. First, the bowl was stuck when I tried to take it out of the mounting. It took a little bit of muscle power to turn it but I eventually got it loose and off. It has not gotten stuck again and hopefully will not do do in the future.

The other quirk is the power lever. It seems a bit stuck too when I try to turn it on. So I have to use muscle power again and the lever ends up on 8 and the contents of my bowl go flying. Once I have the machine turned on, the lever moves smoothly.

Other than that, I love this machine! It takes less time than a hand mixer. I can add all of my ingredients to the bowl at once instead of adding a couple of ingredients and then mixing, adding more ingedients. etc. I would recomment the Artisan to those of you who bake a lot.Get more detail about KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red.

KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red Review


I know with all the other reviews for this mixer, you won't need mine to decide weither or not to buy one for yourself, but, still, I was a little hesitant myself.

First, price aside, knowing now about this mixer, price is no longer an issue, it's worth whatever you pay for it.

I finally got one, and justified it as, "Well, this is a Christmas present... to myself," but again, this mixer doesn't need justification, it's just absolutely amazing.

I used it for the first time, the other night, to mix my cheeses for lasagna. This step usually included me with a large bowl, a large spoon, and my arthritis hurting after the first 10 minutes. Especially when I have to do things like add salt, or basil, garlic or other seasonings, and have to make sure it's completely moxed again, before I can taist it, and continue this step over and over, usually taking about 20 minutes to make sure it's all mixed with the seasonings, and I'm pleased.

Anyway, I put all the cheses and standard seasonings into the mixing bowl, put the head down, and turned it on. I have to admit, I was a little scared that the bowl wasn't big enough, but trust me, it is. It's bigger than it seems in the pictures, and even at home, it's bigger than it looks, until you fill it up with stuff, then you realize how much it holds. Well, back to the mixing, I put the head down, turned it on 3, and within the first 5 seconds, the cheeses were blended, the eeggs were already mixed in, along with the basil, garlic, salt and pepper on top. This thing did just as much in five seconds, as it normally takes me 5 minutes in a bowl.

I won't bore everyone with more detail, but I will say, that I've been cooking for nearly 20 years now, so I know my way around a kitchen, and my only regret is not buying this mixer sooner.

I'm a perfectionist, especially when i comes to cooking, and this mixer allows me to be a perfectionist, quicker, faster, and actually, better.

I just can't tell you enough, how much you need this in your kitchen. If you think that your hand mixer does the same job, or is good enough, then don't bother buying this, because you won't appreciate things like the ability to have both hands free, or you won't notice things like if your cake is silky smooth, or notice things like, if the seasonings are incorporated into every bit of the recipe, instead of just on the food that your hand mixer will reach, and you probably think it's common for some bites to taist better than others, or some bites to be more overpowering than others, and you won't appreciate this. However, if you truly want to be a better cook, and have your food turn out better, you will buy this.


Well, I hate to make this review even longer, but after using my mother's mixer that she got for Christmas, I figured I'd throw in one more advantage of this mixer... it's ease of use for those with arthritis. I was noticing on hers, that you had to push down a button with strength, to release the attachments, while this you just push up, and turn. Another great advantage is, with hers, you had to push in a button on the side, with force, and lift up, while it pinched your finger since it was placed where the hinge is, while this one, you just push back the lever, and lift up. These small details that they include, truly do set this apart from any other.Get more detail about KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red.
