KitchenAid Artisan 5-quart Stand Mixer

$246.23
 

Quick Overview

This is the little appliance that launched a whole brand.  This was and very well might still be your grandmother's mixer. Created by the Hobart company in the early 1900s as the "best kitchen aid", the KitchenAid mixer is as much of a timeless iconic design as are aviator glasses, red double decker london buses, or the Barcelona Chair.   


KitchenAid Mixers was the first to introduce "planetary action" back in the 1900s, which to this day many popular mixers still do not feature.  Planetary action means that the beater orbits clockwise while the shaft spins counter clockwise pushing the ingredients to the middle of the bowl.  This eliminates the need to rotate the bowl and to this day a better mixing configuration has not been discovered.  


A 4.5 quart model was recently listed in a Target retail store for $249.00, but this is a 5 quart model, is currently selling from one seller in White on Amazon from $209.99!

Details

The 5 quart mixing bowl is approximately 15 inches high and easily secures into place. There are 10 speeds accessible with a simple adjustable slide knob on one side and similar looking tilt lock knob on the other side.

Rather than pull the bowl up and down to place the mixing unit in place, the Artisan features a tilt back housing like many stand mixers.

Extremely well constructed, the KitchenAid Artisan has been made in the same plant in Greenville, Ohio since 1941.
