Versatile Must Have Appliance
I recommended this to a dear friend who makes dozens of loaves of artisan bread for samples in her store. It has the capacity to mix a triple batch of bread, and multiple batches of cookies, which is especially welcome during the holidays. This heavy duty mixer is a workhorse that is also a beatiful addition to any kitchen. I love the color--red--in homage to my mother, who was a fantastic cook and baker. This is my second KitchenAid. I decided to replace the Artisan model with a more professional model, since I over-worked the other one with too many heavy batches of bread and cookies.

The best
This mixer is without question one of the best gifts I have ever given myself. I baked a double batch of peanut butter cookies and the mixer acted like i was beating egg whites. I also have the Kitchen Aid 5 Pro which is great for smaller jobs, but this outperforms all others that I have. Peanut butter cookie dough is very bulky but this 6 series handled it like a champ.

Simply Stellar Equipment - KitchenAid Stand Mixer
Wow!! Finally purchased the single best piece of equipment for my kitchen. The 6 quart capacity is phenomenal. Workmanship is high quality. Cooking and baking possibilities are seemingly endless from horseradish & garlic mashed potatoes to cookies and multiple loaves of bread!! Amazing. Only problem is that my husband wants to add decorative flames like Alton Brown's stand mixer! Love this product!!

Great for Cookies
This was a Christmas Gift, so I didn't get cookies made before Christmas. I used it to make New Years Cookies. The first batch was a double batch of Tollhouse. As stated in the description, this Pro 600 Mixer did handle the double amount of dough perfectly. These cookies were some of the best ones ever.

I was given this as a Christmas present (2009) and as a replacement for my Artisian mixer that I've had for years. I loved the Artisian mixer, except when it came to kneading bread. The Artisian would severly shimmy across the counter. I would have to physically hold it down. The motor would slow quite a bit, struggle, and get very hot. It did everything else wonderfully. I made Challah using my new mixer. WOW...what a difference. The mixer barely moved. I left the room and let it knead. Absolutly no problems. The dough hook for this mixer looks like it's twice as big as the Artisian dough hook. It has an adjustable screw incase the beaters don't reach the bottom of the bowl, or if they come too far down. The bowl is nice and wide making it super easy to put in ingredients. It's pretty too. I have the Nickle Pearl. I previously had the Empire Red, which I loved. My only grip was that it would look dirty very quickly and would get spotty because of the shiny finish. The Nickle Pearl is very pretty. This mixer is a bit big, but fits fine in my small kitchen which has almost no counter space. I love love love love this mixer.

Love my KitchenAid!
I received this as a wedding anniversary gift and am spoiled now and forever more. I will never be able to use a hand mixer again without thinking of how much better it could be with my KitchenAid.
Not only can you make sweets with it, but you can mix bread dough, meatloaf... pretty much anything you can think of that needs mixing can be done with this machine.
All the attachments available (ice cream! pasta!) also make it very versatile and a great multi-tasker in the kitchen.
I would buy this over & over again but fortunately, given the quality of KitchenAid products, I probably won't have to!

A cook needs a KitchenAid
I received this mixer for Christmas and it makes me wish I had bought one years ago! I've never been an enthusiastic baker, but this makes it easy to mix up huge batches of cookies that make my coworkers adore me! Easy to clean as well. This appliance quickly pushed aside the microwave to claim prime counter real estate.
