I did a lot of research on the web before I bought this Artisan model mixer. After looking at the various models on many different websites, I think the Artisan model is the best value. Unless you're in the catering business, the 325 watt motor and 5 quart bowl are completely sufficient for everyday needs. Although the models that lift the motor instead of tilting it back are more expensive, I think the tilt is more desirable as it's easier to add ingredients. Basically, you get a lot of power, capacity, and design for a reasonable price. I would highly recommend purchasing an extra bowl - you will find it invaluable.Get more detail about KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red.

Low Price KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red
I plunged headlong into kitchen appliance ownership when I purchased my KitchenAid about two months ago. I live with roommates who have all the basics: blender, toaster, microwave, etc., so I decided I could justify splurging on this gorgeous piece of machinery.
It was an inspired idea on my part, and one I don't regret a bit. My KitchenAid supplies the "chic" part of my kitchen's shabby-chic aesthetic. Not only is it very good-looking, it's very functional. It makes bread dough with incredible ease. It whips cream. It makes phenomenal cream-cheese frosting.
I am eagerly anticipating the holiday season, as I plan to make dozens and dozens of cookies to distribute to my grateful friends and family. (This is made possible in part by the 5-quart capacity of the Artisan model's bowl.)
I could go on and on, but in short, while I am not by any means an expert cook, I recommend that anyone who enjoys cooking at all and has the money to spend purchase a KitchenAid.Get more detail about KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red.

Save KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red
As a former chef and current food service director of a large, contract catering facility, I have used KitchenAid mixers for approximately fifteen years. No bones about it, this is a product that stands up to the rigors of a full service kitchen with multiple users and zero attention to maintanence, other than being sanitized at the end of the day. While we use commercial, floor standing Hobart mixers in the bakery, the KitchenAid table top model is in daily use in the main kitchen, which provides food service for over 1,000 people. This is a piece of equipment that you will buy once, then hand down to your kids. In the commercial food arena, a few names stand out: Robot Coupe, Hobart, Vulcan and KitchenAid. I doubt you will ever be disappointed with this mixer.Get more detail about KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red.

Discount KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red
I love this thing! I have friends who've had KitchenAid mixers for years and they've always raved about their quality and durability. Well, I finally went for it and I have absolutely no regrets. You want to talk about a solid piece of kitchen machinery? This is the epitome of what "Made in America" used to mean! Unlike all the cheapo mixers out there, I'm completely confident that this thing will even outlast ME! The only problem is now I'm wondering why I waited so long!
-----> This may help some of you - I read a review somewhere in which the reviewer gave this mixer a poor rating because it left dry ingredients in the bottom of the bowl - read the instruction booklet, people. It clearly states that if this occurs (or if the attachments scrape the bowl), there is an adjustment screw that raises or lowers the mixing assembly. I had to slightly lower mine and it now incorporates everything into the mix. The KitchenAid mixers are well worth the money....or you can keep buying junk mixers every couple years...the choice is yours.Get more detail about KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red.

Cheapest KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red
I seriously recommend against the KitchenAid machine. I bake a lot of bread - everything from white toasting bread to sourdoughs and multigrain breads, and it has a very tought time keeping up with the dough (single batch!) and not overheat. Finally, the gearbox seized up on me....
The machine I have is the predecessor to this model, but with the same wattage.
Spend your money on a Kenwood or Bosch instead!Get more detail about KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red.

Cheap KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red
A recent review predicted that this mixer wouldn't handle bread doughs because an earlier model of KitchenAid mixer of the same wattage had problems. I am aware that some earlier models with a DIFFERENT motor and gearing system had problems with heavy doughs, and for that reason I didn't buy a KitchenAid mixer. I took a chance on this new design because I read that those problems had been solved, and I am pleased to say that I have experienced no problems at all even with large batches of bread dough. KitchenAid seems to have addressed the known problems of their earlier designs and produced this very satisfactory new model.Get more detail about KitchenAid KSM150PSER Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Empire Red.
