good mixer, modest top speed and power - KitchenAid KHM7T Ultra Power Plus Hand Mixer

This review is for the Canadian model, the Kitchenaid 4KHM7T, which is the top Kitchenaid hand mixer model in Canada currently. It looks identical to the KHM7T but there may be some non-obvious differences.

I bought one of these to replace a cuisinart mixer that self-destructed on me. In comparing the two, I note in this mixer’s favor that:

- the tail is squared off thus allowing that end of the mixer to be rested on a countertop; it will even sit by itself on the countertop with no problem as the power cord is attached off on the right hand side

- the eject button is in a standard location

- it starts up in ‘off’ mode

Designed to fail - Sunbeam 450 Watts Heritage 2346 / 2347 / 2348 / 2349 Stand Mixer

I was ecstatic to find the Heritage design. It is almost identical to the one my mum-in-law received as a wedding gift in 1939, and which has been in use since then, although the stand was misplaced during a move in 1996. The ancient machine is extremely heavy and the arthritis prohibits me from using it as a hand mixer any longer, so when I found the new machine at Target, I bought it on the spot.

At first, I was put off with the light weight of the machine, but I’ve convinced myself that materials science has changed and you no longer need heavy to achieve quality.

As good as the higher-priced model - KitchenAid 300 Watts KSM90 Ultra Power Series Stand Mixer

I could do handstands raving about my KSM90. But the most interesting thing I discovered about it is its similarity to the higher-priced KSM103. (If you want to see my comparison of the two models, see my opinion on the KSM103. It could open your eyes and make your choice of purchase a whole lot easier.) You may be surprised as I was about the two models.

But my KSM90 is the latest addition to my kitchen small-appliance repertoire. A gift from my sister (ok, it spans over several birthdays and Christmases), it has been one of the most-used machines in my kitchen.

A true American classic! - KitchenAid 300 Watts KSM90 Ultra Power Series Stand Mixer

What’s left to say about the Kitchen Aid stand mixer?

It is, quite simply, the Rolls-Royce of small kitchen appliances.

I wanted one for a million years, and when I got one I was reminded of using one just like it 20 years ago working in a restaurant kitchen.

I regularly use it to make fresh pasta, and it doesn’t choke even when I am mixing 2 1/2 lbs of flour in one batch.

Whips cream and egg whites in a snap.

Breads, cookies, muffins: Poof! They’re done!

Durable, Least Repaired and Stylish, too. - KitchenAid 250 Watts K45SS Classic Stand Mixer

A few years ago, I was the manager of a retail sales and service center. Kitchen Aid was one of the brands that we sold and serviced. It was then that I fell in love with the Kitchen Aid Stand Mixer.

Being a service center for small appliances, I got first-hand knowledge on the worst products because they were the ones that I saw the most often. I rarely saw a Kitchen Aid Mixer come in to our store and never for repair. When a Kitchen Aid Stand Mixer came in our service center, it was brought in by a chef, home chef or someone who knew the value of investing in something durable that would last, and they brought it in to get it serviced. They simply loved it and wanted it to work at its optimal level.

A Heavy Noisy Powerful Squad Stand Mixer - Kenmore 600 Watts KSM100 Stand Mixer

This review is about the Sears Kenmore 16 speed stand mixer model number # KSM100. We purchased this machine for $184 back in April 2004 to replace a light duty one that burned-out. This mixer comes with a powerful microprocessor controlled 16 speed with a 600 watt motor. When you turn on this mixer it starts slow and gradually go up to its speed. Each of its speed range is slightly faster than the previous one with the fastest speed that is well suited for making meringue.

The Standard By Which Others Are Measured - KitchenAid 250 Watts K45SS Classic Stand Mixer

My wife and I recieved our Kitchen Aide Classic mixer as a wedding gift. It may be the best gift we got.

The Kitchen Aide is aesthetically pleasing, it has an old-fashioned look that seems to add a bit of class to any kitchen. The machine has smooth lines that remind one of days past.

However, looks are not the most important attribute of an appliance. Durability is! The Kitchen Aide has durability to spare. This device is built to last. Pick it up and you know that you’re dealing with some serious equipment. Its weight speaks volumes about its strength. As for the inner mechanism, well I haven’t looked at it, but I know that I’ve put the mixer through its paces and it still runs as smoothly as the day we recieved it.
