Defective Appliance, Awful Customer Service
I bought this stand mixer after we moved and the pandemic started. I use it maybe 10-15 times a year, so definitely less than 100 uses. Yesterday, while making a Small batch of hamburger buns, the head sheared off the base and flew onto the floor. Thankfully no one was hurt and it didn’t damage the floor. I started a chat, showing photos of the mixer and was then asked to call in, which I did. The agent informed me that the mixer is from 2013 (hard to believe since I bought it in 2019 or later) and the best they can do is offer a 30% discount on a new one from their website. Kitchenaid definitely does NOT stand by their products.

Bought the same one again after 25 years! Great mi
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I bought htis as a replacement for an identical Artisan mixer. It was 25 years old and started to fail. Getting it repaired would have been an expense and a large pain in the butt, so I bought a new one. Same colour, even. I liked it so much, used it a fair amount, have a couple of attachments — could not think of being without it. Works perfectly, as usual, as expected, as it should. The old one had a little spring on the shaft to which one attaches the beater or whisk; the new one does not. Is that a faulty machine? Seems to me the spring was necessary.

Good idea to get
I bought this beater soon after I had used my mixer a few times and it was well worth it. The rubber edge makes sure it scrapes the whole bowl so you don’t have to stop and scrape down the sides as much.

Bad
Won’t publish truth about issues. Don’t waste your money on something heavy that additional parts don’t work on it, even when it’s from them!

Great attachment
I've had my Kitchen-Aid mixer over 30 years and it's worked perfectly the whole time. In that time I have had to replace the beater only 2 times. Made to last.
Only beater I use
Cleans the sides of the mixing bowl which helps improve mixing and lessens the frequency of manually scraping the sides of bowl
This beater is amazing!
I got this as I get frustrated having to scrape the bowl so much. This amazing beater really does the job well. I highly recommend it!

Chipped paint
I have owned this product for less than 3 years and it doesn't get used that often. The paint has already began chipping off. When I called customer service I was told it only had a one year warranty and was offered a 20% discount on a new one. I expect better quality and customer service from Kitchenaid.
