5KSM125BPT ARTISAN 4.8 L Tilt-Head Stand Mixer (PISTACHIO)

perfect dough machine. you can do whatever u want to. too much accessory options.

Ordered one of these, I presume it was a returned unwanted gift or something. The first time I ordered one the order just hung there and then it was cancelled unilaterally by the vendor. I put in another order and it was sent within 2 days. The box had been damaged, and the screw for the accessories cap was missing. The instruction manual was missing and the bowl was a little greasy indicating it had been used. Anyway I got a new one OEM for £12 and my wife is very happy with her mixer. It appears to be in perfect new condition but I was happy to get it as new for the £150-200 less than it would have been.

Just like the ones they use on TV, and let’s face it that’s why you’re buying it.

What is not to love about a kitchen aid and had been waiting ages to find an affordable model in the pistachio. A bakers dream

Perfect mixer for everything I need I bake a lot of bread and I make a lot of cakes and it’s ideal even for pastry very very well made extremely happy

For some reason the Pistachio model was £20 cheaper than the other colours. I thought long and hard about spending the extra on the KitchenAid and would I get the use out of it that justifies the expense. One of the reasons I eventually chose it was for longevity. It's one of the reasons I bought a commercial Dualit toaster. The parts are still available so that you can keep these things running for years. I've bought no name brands before and when it breaks or wears out then it's put in the bin as there is usually little in the way of support or spare parts. The build quality is superb with metal construction and everything feels well put together. Yes, it is a little sparse on accessories in the box but I would rather have the essentials than a cupboard full of bits that I'll never use. It's also not that big, or not as big as expected, so easily fits in a kitchen cupboard. I've read reviews that say it's a little noisy on fast speeds. I don't find it particularly obtrusive and no noisier on full speed than a blender or food processor. Will be putting through its paces later on today so will update the review as I progress with using the mixer. Was also pleased to see that there are lots of 3D printable storage options, splash guards and other bits and pieces for the mixer.
