Great mixer, love it!
Love the color, reminds me of chocolate, fudge, and goes well with my oil bronze hardware and brown and beige countertop. It is very easy to use! Made a big batch of oatmeal cookies and was powerful enough to mix all the oats too! Surprisingly, it cleared my cabinets by an inch or two, able to keep it out on the counter. Looking forward to making homemade sausage...will later get the pasta attachments.

I received the 600 series Professional 6 Qt stand mixer as a Christmas gift from my husband this year, and I am loving it even more than I thought I would! It is so easy to use and also easy to clean. I have wanted one for years and waited until I could get a deal on the 6 qt model because I do a lot of heavy baking during the holiday season. This thing does it all. I cannot wait to get some more attachments so that I can try many other recipes. If you are new to stand mixers as I am, you will be impressed. A few years ago, we began replacing all the small appliances in my kitchen with Kitchenaid brand and we have loved every peice of Kitchenaid that we have purchased. They are quality and you just can't kill 'em. I cook everything from scratch and enjoy making family dinners every night. There is one thing about the stand mixer that is different from hand mixing or using electric beaters. The first couple things I made turned out a little different texture wise because the stand mixer whips and mixes much more efficiently and faster than electric mixers do so it does take a little getting used to before you know how long to mix different things. You just have to play around a little and adjust your mixing time accordingly. I admit that I overmixed the first few things until I got the hang of it, especially yeast breads. Now that I have gotten to use my machine a little, I am loving the fact that I can put something in there and walk away for a minute and multi-task. Every busy mom should have one of these stand mixers!!! Oh, and Kitchenaid is the BEST company if you should have a problem. They have excellent warranties and replacement policy, no questions asked and you can order even a part or piece to almost anything they make and not have to replace the whole appliance...how cool is that!

I received the mixer in mid-December and have tried to put it through its paces in the last three weeks. I have done whole wheat bread, bagels, pugliese, cinnamon rolls and a variety of cakes and cookies (yep, I'll be reviewing a treadmill next :-)).

The mixer has done everything I have asked of it. I have done doughs that have up to 8 cups of flour without any problem (including the wheat recipe with freshly milled wheat flour). The dough hook is simply fabulous and kneads the dough just right.

The one time that I worried was when I doubled the cinnamon roll recipe so that it called for 12 cups of white flour. The company rates this machine for up to 14 cups of flour, so I went for it. I got all of the flour into the bowl and got about halfway through the kneading and the mixer overheated and shut off. I waited a couple minutes and turned it back on and finished kneading. I have decided to just limit what I do to about 8-10 cups of flour. If you want a mixer that will do more than that, I would probably go a different direction. For me, to do a couple batches of bread each week for my family, this machine was the best value.

One other thing is that for doing a small amount of whipped cream or something, this mixer is overkill. I guess I need to get the 3-qt. bowl and then it would be fine.

Overall, I am thrilled with the product.
Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2013
I purchased this in February 2008. We are now over five years later. I use this for everything from meringue to bread to pasta. It is the one tool that I would never give up.

So why the 600? We have friends and family with smaller model KitchenAids. The paddles are plastic and their capacity is much smaller. When you make bread on the smaller models, they tend to shake or vibrate if the dough is off balance. In contrast, with this model, you could mix cement in it.

At first, I was disappointed that the head didn't flip back. The head raises and lowers horizontally. But after seeing the smaller units with the heads that flip, I was had a much better appreciation. The 600 is a strong beast. It's up and down horizontal movement is on a very sturdy track that can support the weight and the torque.

I have purchased two of these for gifts. Many of our friends have seen this in use and great results it has produced. They have made this unit a "must have" for their kitchen. If you enjoy cooking or baking, this is the one tool that will make a difference in your life and kitchen.

Final note, we found 00 Flour (also called doppio zero flour) at a local grocer. With the pasta attachment, you can the freshest and customized pasta (e.g. spinach, beet) in about 30 to 45 minutes.

I am more pleased with my Kitchen Aid Professional Stand Mixer than I can express. It is by far the best investment I have ever made, it is my favorite kitchen appliance that I have ever owned. It is powerful, extremely efficient, easy to clean and makes double batches of cakes, brownies and loaves of bread at one time as well as thoroughly whips butter, meringues and it is so versatile with all of the wonderful attachment options. I have 5 kids and saving time is very important to me, so when I can mix quicker, double up my batches, and clean up easily, it is worth every nickel spent. I would definitely buy this product again, and if anything ever happens to my unit, I will be buying another to replace it immediately. I recently bought all of the separate attachments and am looking forward to trying those out very soon. I have only had my stand mixer for less than a month and I have used it more than 10 times already and I have no intensions of slowing down, I am cooking and baking everything under the sun!

La usamos todos los dias en el restaurante que trabajo.
La usamos de forma diaria por severas horas sin problema!
Es Rapida, fuerte y estable.
Puedes tener cualquier tipo de masa, postre o pasta en el proceso, y no se mueve ni un cm de lugar al batir.
Tiene un color muy bonito, pero recomiendo lavar con esponja amarilla suave, ya que puede dañarse el acabado brillante.
Todo embona y funciona perfecto.

Amazing. Have been using for a month or so now. Great for making large batches of cookies, we've also used it to make homemade pizza and pretzels as well. Didn't have any issues with the dough recipes which were fairly dense.
