I love my Kitchen Aid Mixer...She is only 7-8 years old, but the very best Christmas present my husband EVER gave me...and we've been married for 36 years.
She is a basic stand mixer, but my old Sunbeam stand mixer bit the dust after too many years of cookie dough and bread dough. BTW, she is a re furbished model....nothing wrong with her, except that she weighs so much.
Most def. worth the money..........
