  • The beauty and the beast! All in one package.
We purchased this mixer when we got fed up by the Hamilton Beach 63227 that we’ve had for about 1 year. I was always eyeballing a KitchenAid, but when I found the Hamilton for just 60 bucks new I pulled the trigger. It was not a bad mixer, but it was never powerful enough, and regretted my decision every time I was using it. Well, time came to get a meat grinder attachment (the stainless SmokehouseChef one) and what a better opportunity to change our mixer? So we searched and researched and stumbled upon this commercial KitchenAid. What a great find! This mixer is similar in size to the Professional 600 we also considered. It is almost 17” tall, so it fits perfectly under the cabinet (and it looks fantastic too, orange cord included - tucked away in the back). And because it doesn’t tilt, I can keep it in one position and never move it (the Hamilton - a tilt head model - we needed to take out every time as we couldn’t tilt it under the cabinet). Also, the 8qt bowl is big (or at least that's my impression after switching from a 4.5qt one), but it is mostly tall. It is so tall in fact that there are issues adding ingredients - when we use this bowl we always have to lower it to add ingredients. It seems (from what I read) that the pouring shield from the Professional 600 6qt bowl fits this unit. But we never bought the shield - instead, to mitigate this issue we purchased the KitchenAid KSMC5QBOWL 5qt bowl for about 40 bucks) and that one is perfect for our everyday mixing needs. We love the fact that all attachments are stainless steel. Very good quality too and NSF rated for restaurant use. They are BIG, and solid! We switched most of our small appliances and cookware to stainless, and this is one very important reason we chose this KitchenAid unit (the Hamilton aluminum-coated attachments started to chip after just a few uses). We have tried all attachments and all performed very well. But we needed to adjust the bowl height to get them to properly scrape the edges. There is one attachment that we considered (the KitchenAid KAFE7L) but didn’t yet really feel the need for it. Using it is a pleasure! This thing is a beast. Nothing can stop it! It has so much torque! And it is do quiet too. It features a slow start - when it gets to the speed selected all you hear is a very quiet motor driving the gear drive (I cannot really explain it; it just sounds like a well-built, solid machinery). It mixes anything we through at it - pizza dough, play dough, paleo (sticky) dough, panettone dough, eggs, etc. - with so much ease. It also drives that meat grinder without any strain - almost as if nothing is there. The lift-bowl is a bit more inconvenient than the tilt-head model (as my Hamilton was) but the torque on this puppy would have probably torn that hinge apart. To see the true difference in the motor design please refer to the pictures I uploaded - the KSM8990 has direct drive, and the entire motor unit is actually cheaper to replace (about 50 bucks) than replacing all parts that could go wrong in the other 2 models. It is one of my best appliances (I try to purchase commercial quality as often as I can - I also have the Waring WFP14SC, the Waring MX1200XTX, the Weston 08-0801-W, among others) and I reach for it every time I have the chance. All in all, highly recommended! ... show more

  • First batch a success
Style: No Bowl Guard Pattern Name: Mixer Color: Empire Red
I just received my new Kitchenaid 8 quart and made a quadruple batch of my favorite bread. This requires 4 pounds of flour, or about 14+ cups. The motor didn't break a sweat. I noticed slight complaining when the last of flour was getting mixed in, and the dough did ride up the kneading hook somewhat (to be expected). The top of the mixer was not even warm after 5 minutes of kneading. Motor is very quiet compared to the smaller Kitchenaids. Clearly this is no sissy mixer. The attachments are very solid heavy metal (and HUGE), the kneading hook is the screw kind that I prefer. Unlike the screw hook that comes with the 6 quart, this one looks to be stainless and I think it could take the dishwasher although I haven't tried it (The 6 quart kneading hook could not be placed in the dishwasher). The other nice thing is that my 6 quart bowl fits on this 8 quart mixer. I had my 6 quart Kitchenaid for 4 1/2 years, and a slight increase of my usual batch (2 pounds of flour) caused it to seize up and die (was beyond repair). So I wanted to know right away whether this one could handle more and I was glad to see it can. I did not want to pay $2200 for a Hobart so was glad to see Kitchenaid is now making a solid robust commercial model. Of course time will tell how well it is built and made to last. For now though, I am very happy with this mixer after the first use performance. ... show more

  • LOVE IT!!
Style: No Bowl Guard Pattern Name: Mixer Color: Empire Red
I just received my KitchenAid 8 qt. Stand Mixer. I have previously owned one 5.5 qt., and two 6 qt. KitchenAid Stand Mixers. After purchasing the 5.5 qt., I bought the first 6 qt. because I needed a larger capacity bowl for the dozens of cookies I make in one session. Subsequently, a more powerful 6 qt. was released and I bought that one because the cookie dough I make is pretty thick. I gave the 1st 6 qt. to my daughter. However, the thick cookie dough continued to make even the new mixer work really hard. Although, it did get the job done. When I saw that a 7 qt. 1.3 hp was being produced, I decided to upgrade again. However, right before I ordered it, I came across the commercial NSF 8 qt. 1.3 hp.. So, I ordered that one instead. I'm keeping the 6 qt. for smaller jobs and for when I need to use 2 mixers at the same time for different projects. I have so far set the mixer up and run the motor for over 20 minutes to ensure it works before I start making the large batches of cookies later this week. Well, it works great. The 6 qt. was louder and it also wobbled across the counter as it mixed and I didn't feel comfortable leaving it running without being very close by at all times. That was a hassle as I could not easily accomplish other cooking tasks at the same time. This machine does not wobble at all. And, after 20 minutes the motor became warm but not hot like with the 6 qt.. I will not know for sure how it handles the thick dough until later this week. But, I expect no problems. I did not find an issue with snapping the bowl in place, like some others have reported. But, I do have a lower counter that I use for my mixer and food processor that gives me more leverage than if they were at normal counter height. Yes, the edge of the bowl is not rolled like the 6 qt.. That's because it's National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) Certified and it prevents food from getting trapped in the roll and then allowing bacteria to grow (I looked it up :) ). The edge is not sharp either. Another big benefit that I like is that the beater, whip and dough hook are all stainless steel. This is unlike the aluminum ones that come with the smaller KitchenAid mixers. Also, the pouring shield from my 6 qt. works with this machine. It's also great that the 6 qt. bowls, beaters, ice cream maker and all my other attachments fit (e.g. pasta maker, juicer, food processer, meat grinder, etc.). Additionally, it's a bit taller than the 6 qt.. But, it's not much wider and the KitchenAid cover I used on the 6 qt. fits just fine. I love the Empire Red color too (even with the orange cord). I think this will be the last mixer I will ever have to buy - unless I decide to open my dream bakery at which time I will probably have to go with a Hobart. Thanks KitchenAid! Update: I have now made over 30 dozen cookies and this machine works without hesitation. It did wobble a bit; but, nothing like the smaller KitchenAid machines. ... show more

  • High quality professional grade Mixer
Style: With Bowl Guard Pattern Name: Mixer Color: White
Very easy to setup once out of the box. 8 quart bowl hold triple and quadruple batches of dough if needed. Loads of power to work through the heaviest of doughs and light enough for delicate mixing of ingredients when needed. Using at my organic market to mix up several batches of scones, muffins, and specialty breads without the need to stop, empty the bowl and start again. It's a workhorse and a huge upgrade from our 5 quart KitcheAid mixer. ... show more
