Beware - KitchenAid does not honor their warranty. If anything should go wrong with your mixer, KitchenAid will try to find any loophole they can to squirm out of replacing it. Their promise in their user manual of “hassle-free replacement” is false advertising.
On mine, the 3 slowest speeds quit working. I contacted KitchenAid, and they refused to honor my warranty on the grounds that I bought the mixer from an Amazon Marketplace vendor. The vendor also tried contacting KitchenAid on my behalf, and that didn’t help either - KitchenAid claimed the MarketPlace vendor was not an authorized KitchenAid reseller and refused to honor the warranty even though I had purchased a brand-new product and it went bad before the warranty year was up.
Your odds of having something go wrong in the first year are not in your favor - not only did I have this problem with my mixer, but before this issue arose for me I had purchased a second one for my sister-in-law, and hers too arrived with a factory defect. She reported her problem 2 weeks ago and although in her case KitchenAid promised to send her a replacement immediately, she has still not received it.
I will be pursuing legal action on the fact that KitchenAid is refusing to honor their warranty on my mixer. So beware - I have had poor results with product quality on two different KitchenAid mixer purchases within a few months’ time. Although I understand that sometimes things can go wrong, I expect manufacturers to honor their warranties when problems arise, and KitchenAid does not.

I am in love with my Cuisinart stand mixer, but wanted another bowl to reduce the need to clean up in the middle of baking. I found this bowl for $100 and more on other sites – and was thrilled to see it at Amazon for such a reasonable price. It’s the genuine item, and it came quickly. If you bake alot – especially multiple batches of the same thing – splurge on this – it will save you time!
I love Amazon, but you can order this directly from Cuisinart delivered for $60 + $10 shipping. I have heard that if you use your stand mixer a lot, that a second mixing bowl is a good investment.
Having an extra mixing bowl on hand helps me to enjoy my task without first stopping to clean the bowl. The other plus is that the bowl has two handles which comes in handy for me because I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and can handle this bowl easier.
