I'm sure the bigger mixers are, in some ways, better, but don't underestimate what an enormous step up even the lowly Classic model is from a hand mixer or plastic food processor. This is a very solid product. And most of us, while we value the convenience of a big stand mixer when baking things, don't exactly use these things every day. Even if you think that at some point in the future, you have reason to get a bigger one, remember that the bigger ones take up a lot more space, and these things actually have decent resale value, so if you want to upgrade later, your previous investment isn't necessarily lost altogether.
I bought this because I'd been baking Dutch-style appeltaart a number of times, and people really like it, but it was a lot of work to make. At some point, I looked into how to make it faster, and I ended up getting a $20 peeler/corer/slicer for the apples, as well as this mixer. Appeltaart involves a heavy shortbread pasty crust (what the Germans call "Mürbeteig"), which is a challenge for a lot of kitchen equipment and traditionally has to be kneaded by hand, so if I was going to get a device to make it for me, it would have to be a pretty heavy-duty one.
The dough has a 3:2:1 flour/butter/sugar ratio (by weight) and just a little bit of egg. Usually, I'd cut the butter into small pieces to make it easier, but to put this mixer to the test, I just dumped in the ingredients and pulled the delightfully solid-feeling lever to the slowest speed. It wasn't a small amount of dough either; the bowl was filled pretty much to capacity and a little bit of flour spilled out initially. At first, it looked like the dough was never going to come together, but I just left it running for a few minutes and before long I had a perfect dough. I had worried that maybe the dough would be too crumbly because the mixer can't do the typical squeezing motion that you do by hand to really make the dough cohesive, but it turns out that once everything is thoroughly mixed, it only takes 10 seconds of hand-kneading to make the dough really come together. The hard work is really in the mixing and the mixer does it extremely well.
It's clear that these things have been on the market for a long time and a lot of minor issues have been worked out over the years. The shape of the attachments and the shape of the bowl, for instance, are well matched to each other so the thing will beat even a single egg or a small amount of whipping cream just fine, and doughs don't stick to the bowl when using the paddle attachment. The bayonet type bowl attachment really locks the bowl in place without making it hard to remove, things don't splatter into spots that are hard to clean, etc.
Two nit-picks:
1. The mixer works if you don't lock it in the down position. I can't imagine this is good for the internal gearing, though then again the head is heavy enough that it might not matter very much. Still, it would be good to have some sort of interlock so that it didn't operate when you don't lock it down. Meanwhile, just remember to double-check that you have it locked down before turning it on.
2. The whisk attachment oxidizes a lot when you put it in a dishwasher, especially if you use a copious amount of strong detergent (e.g. Cascade brand). This leaves a black powdery residue that rubs off easily. I don't think it's particularly dangerous if it were to end up in your food in small quantities, but it has a metallic smell and taste and it's unsightly. I'm sure it says somewhere in the manual that the whisk attachment shouldn't go in the dishwasher, but it would be nice if the manufacturer could either make it so this doesn't happen in the first place, or alternatively attached a label to the thing with a warning so you can't miss it.

From whipping up delicate meringues to kneading tough bread dough, this mixer handles every task with ease. The powerful motor and range of attachments make it a true workhorse in the kitchen. My wife particularly loves how it simplifies complex recipes and saves her valuable time.
The build quality is impressive, with robust materials that exude durability. It's clear that KitchenAid has put thought into both form and function. The various color options are a nice touch, allowing for a personalized touch in any kitchen decor.
Cleaning is a breeze, as well. The detachable components are easy to wash, and the stainless steel bowl adds a touch of elegance to the whole package.
In summary, the KitchenAid mixer has become an integral part of our culinary adventures. It's a reliable, versatile, and beautifully designed appliance that my wife simply can't do without. If you're serious about cooking and baking, this mixer is an investment that's well worth every penny.
