KitchenAid Professional 600 Series 6-Quart Stand Mixers
I couldn’t go through kitchen week here at Kennedy Kelly without including this lovely gadget. I think the comments should speak for this product:
I was a bit nervous about this Kitchen Aid model based on the research I’d done on Amazon and the internet of previous models in the 6 quart range. I own and cherish a K5SS I bought 25 years ago. I will never part with this machine (with all its chips and cosmetic wear - it’s been a faithful workhorse and one of my most prized possessions). I was ready for greater capacity, more power and a more cosmetically appealing mixer, so I took the plunge with the KP26M1XC (licorice). I’m glad I did.
and:
This is a reliable machine. It gets a workout in my household on almost a daily basis. No complaints! The things I like about this, and the KA brand in general, is the elegant design, which inspires confidence (being heavy and metal, rather than el cheapo plastic) and accentuates rather than detracts from kitchen decor. I am not sure when so many major manufacturers decided that American consumers preferred cheap and ugly and unreliable, a la Wal-Mart, but they are wrong, and KA is right.
