Re: Basic Stand mixer
I have three Kitchen Aid mixers, a hand mixer and two stand mixers - a tilt head Artisan and a bowl lift model. The tilt head is 22 years old; I've had it since college. The other was a floor model from Kohl's that my dad bought for my mom. It didn't have a box so he got it for a steal (under $200, iirc). Mom gave it to me when they downsized a couple years ago. My aunt has one that's pushing 50 years old. (It's so old it says Hobart - Kitchen Aid's commercial parent company - on the side!) They last a long time. I've only ever had one problem with a stand mixer and all it took was a quick adjustment at the appliance shop to fix. I wish I'd fared as well with food processors!
