Smile kitchen aid classic food mixer

My DH has asked if I would like this food mixer for Christmas. Would I ????????????? WOW !! I am happy with the smallest one - as I don't cater for large numbers - but would appreciate any reviews from anyone who has this mixer ?
Thanks for your time !

I LOVE my mixer. My mom got it for me years ago for Christmas. I use it a lot. She got hers when they first came out and it is still a work-horse. I bought one for my 16yo niece last year because she wanted to make cookies and not have to struggle mixing the dough. I would go for it.

I LOVE my mixer! I use it at least once a week to make bread. It never leaves the counter top. I'm so glad I finally bought it.

Love my Kitchen Aid mixer. About 20 years ago my husband wanted one for Christmas, my answer, what do we need something like that for??? But I did get it for him. Forward to now...what in heaven's name did I ever do before the Kitchen Aid. Notice it was for him, but I'm the one who uses it the most. Hehehe

I love mine, too. It's heavy to move from the corner under the cabinet out towards the edge of the counter, so I put a quilted mat underneath it. If you do that, just be careful that it doesn't move about if you're doing something like bread dough.

It's a one time buy for sure! I've noticed some great prices on them this year. Brad's Deals always posts the best price for the Kitchen Aid. Just be sure and get the higest watt motor. A low watt motor won't be very powerful for using the accessories that you can get for it. I would like to have one of the pretty color ones. No color choice when I got mine years ago.

I have had mine for at least 30 years and it still is kicking. It is a work horse. One way or another each of my five kids have one in their kitchens and they love them.
