Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of KitchenAid KP26M1XNP Professional 600 Series 6-Quart Stand Mixer, Nickel Pearl
Customer Review: A Must Have
Summary: 4 Stars
I love my KitchenAid 6-Quart mixer. I purchased a 600 series mixer to get the greater "horsepower" of the motor. (This motor can handle my stiff-dough recipes easily.) I didn't give it a 5-star for three reasons. First, the whip and mixing attachments don't quite reach low enough in the bowl, so I have to do more scraping by hand than I would like to. Next, because the top does not open up and back like some of the lower models do, I can't reach into the bowl very well unless I take the mixing attachment off to do my scraping. Lastly, I don't like the way it sounds and performs at the lowest speed setting. It sounds like it's laboring away. I love the Nickel Pearl color. It's a "must have" addition to my newly remodeled kitchen.Customer Review: It's good (but not great)
Summary: 4 Stars
Maybe I'm just a creature of old habits but I don't feel like this mixes as well as my old hand-held mixer, which I still have. I even bought the smaller 3-qt bowl/attachment to see if it would mix better for my smaller mixes but I still don't feel like it gets as thoroughly mixed. I will say that it does mix more QUICKLY, but who needs faster if it's not better? I have to stop the mixer frequently so that I can swipe down the sides with my spatula but this just slows me down.
I'm still happy with my purchase..it just wasn't as amazing and life-changing as I thought owning my very first stand mixer will be. Maybe I'll update my review after using it for a few months and figure out my little mixer a bit better.
Customer Review: "Best Home Mixer Ever"
Summary: 5 Stars
I searched the reviews on this mixer and found mixed responses. Some Loved the mixer and some hated it. I chose the mixer from past exterience with KitchenAid and the hope that this product would be above the standard. I recieved the mixer yesterday and used it to make a large batch of complex cookies. WHAT A DELIGHT! The mixer was not only quite, (which the sound of the motor was something that everyone complained about); It was wonderful to work with. I was working with 4 1/2 pounds of melted chocolate, 3 pounds of nuts and 3 pounds of chocolate chips. It mixed everything quitely and effeciently without any hesitation or motor drag. I LOVE THIS MIXER!!!!! and thank you Amazon for the Great Price. Best Value out there.Customer Review: KirchenAid Mixer - 6 QT. Very Pleased
Summary: 5 Stars
After reviewing options from different manufacturers and sources online, selection was made based on research information. The price paid by purchasing through Amazon.com was most competitive. Delivery was quick, no extra cost for shipping and product was received intact. The mixer itself is A GREAT TOOL FOR THE KITCHEN. I wanted to know about the capacilty of the mixing bowl and I chose the 6 QT model because I can raise and lower the bowl easily. The design is perfect for uniform mixing and the attachments offers versatility in product type for baking. Overall I am [ASIN:B0002Y5X9W KitchenAid KP26M1XNP Professional 600 Series 6-Quart Stand Mixer, Nickel Pearl]]very pleased.Customer Review: KitchenAid is BACK!
Summary: 4 Stars
This machine is finally almost like the one my Grand Mother had. Quality, and powerful. It's much noisier though, the pitch of the higher power input is a little on the annoying side, which is why I took one star away. It has no problem kneeding a double loaf bread batch (6 cups of high gluten flour)for 10 minutes, it just keeps going strong, so smell or sign of the motor even getting a workout (no heat on the case at all). Whips cream and egg whites so fast you better not turn your back. Overall, very pleased with this machine. It replaced another KitchenAid I bought from a refurbished Kitchen store, that lasted about 7 years. I expect to get at least 10 out of this one.
