This special bowl lift model has brackets on the bowl that fit over reinforce pins on the stand mixer, which is than lifted up by a Deal with on the right side of the mixer to lock the bowl in place even as mixing (this design is made to Deal with heavy mixtures and large recipes). The 5-quart polished stainless steel bowl is dishwasher secure. Its ergonomically designed Deal with is contoured to fit the hand and makes lifting the bowl more comfortable. This mixer also features a unique mixing action: the beater spins clockwise as the shaft spins counter clockwise, moving the beater to 67 different points around the bowl.

The flat beater, dough hook, and professional wire whip add to the versatility of the mixer. In addition, the Soft Start mixing feature helps prevent ingredient splash-out and “flour puff” at startup, even as “Overload Reset” helps eliminate overheating of the motor. A hinged hub cover flips up, allowing easy installation of attachments and never leaves the mixer. Optional attachments (sold one at a time) complete the package to make cooking a pleasure. From citrus juicer to sausage stuffer, KitchenAid stand mixers can Deal with just about any job in the kitchen.
Thirty percent more powerful than KitchenAid’s previous 5-quart stand mixers, this professional model efficiently tackles heavy loads with its 450-watt motor, direct-drive all-steel gear transmission, and bowl-lift lever that effortlessly raises heavy ingredients up to the beater. KitchenAid stand mixers, constructed of durable die-cast metal, come in numerous colors and styles that have turn into American classics.

With a choice of ten speeds and three attachments–flat beater, spiral dough hook, and stainless-steel wire whip–the mixer handles everything from egg whites to meat loaf to pizza dough. Fairly than rotating the bowl, KitchenAid stand mixers feature a fixed bowl with a unique mixing action: the beater spins clockwise as the shaft spins counter-clockwise, thus projecting the beater to 67 different points inside the 5-quart stainless-steel bowl. In deference to its power, the Soft-Start feature prevents splashing and flour clouds by gearing up to each speed gradually; then the electronic speed sensor kicks in to care for a constant speed even when mixing the thickest batter. The bowl features a Deal with as well as two pins that hook into the lifting mechanism, which consists of a solid metal arm the same color as the mixer and a stainless-steel lever. A hinged attachment hub makes changing attachments easy. For safety, the mixer shuts down if an object obstructs the mixing process or if overloading occurs. The bowl, beater, and dough hook are dishwasher-secure. Assembled in Ohio, the mixer measures 16-1/2 by 12 by 14 inches and is backed by a hassle-free, one-year warranty. –Ann Bieri
