i already have a kitchenaid mixer but it's about twenty years old and the basic model so i decided to treat myself and get a new one, the artisan series.
this is an investment for life, i recomend it as a basic kithchen item, as important as your favorite chef knife or your refrigerator, is a must
so they rented it and out of the 10 people i told, 10 people did not like it basicly the game is about you trying to get a load of stuff across the usa.
i have also just purchased the mixer bible to increase my repitoire of recipes, but basically all your oldie but goodie recipes will work just as well if not better using your mixer.
it's basically worthless since it doesn't sit well on the bowl and flips off if you try to move it.
hands down this is a fantastic mixer from the very basic of needs to the largest.
this mixer is basically the maserati of mixers.
basically, this mixer does everything my kitchenaid did, and does it better.
the basic white bread dough caused a momentary stop, which would not have been noticeable had i not been watching.
there is a cook book pamphlet included which seems competent and a rather basic dvd.
it's a simple basic no frills heavy duty mixer that lasts!
it also comes with the basic attachments needed to get started.
if you are an experienced baker or if you are just starting out, this basic tool will enhance your results.
it's basically rinse and go.
i do basic baking and with the exception of how much counter space it uses (it's big) i love this thing.
basically, it is a great product [..] the specs listed are accurate.
came with all the basic beaters and things needed to dive right in to making baked goods and has a well written manual that covers pretty much anything you need to know about it.
if you have just basic current and future mixing needs, do not plan on storing the mixer on the counter (pro models are heavier and taller, so they are harder to lift and would require a tall cabinet
basically what we have here is a special rebuilt model that cheaper, stronger, and heavier than usual.
they reassured me that when they put the "factory-reconditioned" stamp of approval on the kitchenaid rrk150wh artisan 5-quart mixer they're basically saying that you're getting a brand new-ish
basically kitchen aid has two basic designs: one where the top part of the mixer pivots (my mixer) and one where the bowl goes up and down.
buy the other attachments and you basically have most of what you need, in small appliances, for the kitchen.
my family told me that the kitchenaid mixers are basically the same except for the motor used.
but basically, if you can get by these two facts, (the game is quite entertaining anyway), you will be quite in luck.
the beaters are standard, and are found on any basic mixer.
the new cuisinart hm-70 power advantage 7-speed hand mixer is basically a redesign of cuisinart's earlier retro-style chm-7 power advantage 7-speed hand mixer.
my old hand-held mixer died and i was surprised to find some new features in this pretty-basic appliance.
perhaps for other jobs, it is not slow enough, but for my basic mixer needs, it's perfect.
bottom line: a hand blender being typically an idiot's gift to one's spouse, this one is the exception if she (or he) likes cooking, does it a lot, and appreciates something nicer than the basic.
basically, what it does for me is make me keep it cleaner!
i highly recommend this for basic mixing needs.
the bottom line: if you are ready to upgrade from a basic $20.00 model, this is the way to go, and i bet you'll be shocked at what you put up with before.
it does a good basic job of mixing and blending.
i like to make a 24oz milk shake, and since the mixing cup can only fit so much and the blender can only handle so much i have to split it up into two(basically make two milk shakes then poor them
it takes it a long time to make a milkshake (basically, you keep mixing until the ice cream simply melts), and it certainly won't break down ice.
