5.0 out of 5 stars Yea!, January 10, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: KitchenAid Flat Beater, Burnished (Kitchen)
Finally a paddle that won't loose its coating . . . because it has none!

This is the cat's meow.

BTW if anyone is wondering. This item also fits the KitchenAid K45SS. That's what I have and I bought this on the chance it would fit and it does. So anyone who owns the K45. This fits.

I love my KitchenAid mixer, and was very upset when I found out that loaning it to someone meant the flat beater silicone coat came back with a slash in it! I found it reassuring that others had this happen through sheer use, but I think the burnished beater should have been the original one issued. I was leery from the first of putting the original into the dishwasher, but now I won't be putting any of my attachments into the dishwasher! I should close by saying that the company sent the part IMMEDIATELY and it arrived in perfect condition. Thank you for quality products and service!

5.0 out of 5 stars FINALLY, December 27, 2008
This review is from: KitchenAid Flat Beater, Burnished (Kitchen)
I was never happy with the plastic coated beater attachment for my KitchenAid Mixer. The coating started coming off and last thanksgiving it discolored the batter for my cheesecake and cakes. Final straw as the saying goes. I went right to Amazon and bought the burnished aluminum beater, and I'm much more pleased with it. I've used the industrial size mixer with the burnished attachments before, so it was a surprise that kitchenaids home product would ship with such an inferior quality piece. BUT... I LOVE THE NEW ONE!!!

    This review is from: The Essential Mixer Cookbook: 150 Effortless Recipes For Your Stand Mixer and All of Its Attachments (Paperback)
    I really wanted to like this book. The photographs are gorgeous and all the recipes sound and look divine. But I have yet to try a recipe from the book that didn't need at least minor tweaking to work, and one of the recipes ended up causing a huge (and expensive) problem.

    Some of the problems are minor: The basic pasta dough needs about two tablespoons of water to come together properly, and the spinach pasta will need more. Some aren't so minor: I have no idea what on earth the pretzel recipe is supposed to produce (paving bricks, maybe?), but the dry, stiff, crumbly dough was impossible to work with even after I added a lot of water and kneaded it vigorously with the dough hook and with my hands. I went over the ingredients several times to make sure I didn't miss something, so I'm inclined to wonder if the recipe as it's written in the book is missing an ingredient or a step.

    And then there are the downright disastrous problems: The tagliatelle (pasta)... Read more

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great Pictures, April 24, 2007
    This review is from: The Essential Mixer Cookbook: 150 Effortless Recipes For Your Stand Mixer and All of Its Attachments (Paperback)
    About a month ago, I received a Kitchenaid stand mixer for my bridal shower. I wasn't sure how to use it so I ordered 3 cookbooks from Amazon. I ordered "The Essential Mixer," "The Mixer Bible" and "Mix It Up." The book that I like most is "The Essential Mixer..." because it has beautiful pictures. In addition, The recipes are easy to understand and use everyday ingredients. In the front of the book there is a recipe chart/ index that shows you at a glance what recipes use which attachments. Each recipe is from a different country so if you are trying to create a menu it is easy to determine what foods will compliment each other based on the country it originated in. I loved how the recipes include speeds, times and attachments use. So far I tried making the guacamole, tiramisu and orange chiffon cake. They were all delicious. I'm planning a Mother's Day brunch with the Leek & Zucchini quiche, onion soup Gratinee and lemon au citron recipes for dessert.

    1.0 out of 5 stars A big letdown, February 2, 2008
    This review is from: The Essential Mixer Cookbook: 150 Effortless Recipes For Your Stand Mixer and All of Its Attachments (Paperback)
    I was so excited to pick up this book! I brought it home and started flipping through and thought "What great pictures!". Then, I actually read through the recipes and was EXTREMELY disappointed. I earmarked 8, (yes-8!) that I could or would actually want to try. Everything else is just too fancy and impractical. I'm not sure what kind of family this is meant for, but it's definitely not mine.

    #$Best Buy KitchenAid KSM150PSWH Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, White


    Customer Rating :

    List Price : $349.99 Price : Too low to display


    Product Description

    KITCHENAID ARTISAN STAND MIXER *325 watts, 10 speeds *5 qt. bowl with handle *Includes pouring shield, wire whip, flat beater and dough hook *Tilt head platform *Boxed *White

    Amazon.com Review

    KitchenAid's Artisan stand mixer is a substantial piece of equipment: 325 watts of mixing power make child's play of creaming butter, kneading dough, and whipping cream. The kid in you will appreciate how quick and easy it is to mix up a batch of cookie dough. This model comes with three attachments: a flat beater for making batter, meat loaf, and all textures in-between; a wire whip for egg whites, mayonnaise, and more air-infused creations; and a hook for mixing and kneading yeast doughs. All three are solidly constructed and easily secured to the beater shaft with a simple twist. This model also includes a pouring shield for guiding ingredients to their proper destination, and the bowl itself locks tight to the base. Standing about 15 inches high, jutting out a foot, and weighing more than a grown woman's bowling ball, this stand mixer isn't the sort of appliance you'll wipe down and put away. Better to find a square foot of free counter space for easy access; besides, this machine is as pretty as it is rugged--you'll want to show it off. --Betsy Danheim

    From the Manufacturer

    The Artisan mixer's strong 325-watt motor delivers the power to handle the heaviest mixtures, and mix large batches easily.

    The 5-quart polished stainless steel bowl with ergonomic handle is big enough to handle large batches of heavy mixtures. Its ergonomically designed handle is contoured to fit the hand and makes lifting the bowl more comfortable.

    Unique Mixing Action

    The beater spins clockwise as the shaft spins counter clockwise; moving the beater to 67 different points around the bowl. This unique mixing action creates a thorough blend of ingredients and eliminates the need to rotate the bowl.

    Multiple Speeds

    10 speeds allow the user to select the right speed for the mixing job; from very high to very slow stir. It's easy to select the precise speed needed for a perfect mix.

    Versatile Accessories

    The flat beater, dough hook, and the professional wire whip add to the versatility of the mixer. The flat beater is the ideal accessory for mixing normal to heavy batters. From cake mixes to firm cookie dough, the flat beater mixes quickly and thoroughly.

    The dough hook mixes and kneads yeast dough, saving both time and the effort of hand-kneading. The wire whip incorporates the maximum amount of air in whipped mixtures for fluffier whipped cream and angel food cakes.

    All attachments are solidly constructed, and attach easily to the stand mixer.

    Easy Clean Up

    The pouring shield fits around the top of the bowl and prevents ingredient splash-out. The chute makes it convenient and easy to add ingredients.

    The tilt-back mixer head allows for easy access to bowl and beaters. A lock lever holds the mixer head securely in place and the bowl fastens tightly to the base.


    Optional Attachments

    Optional attachments (sold separately) complete the package to make cooking a pleasure. From citrus juicer to sausage stuffer, KitchenAid stand mixers can handle just about any job in the kitchen.


    • 325-watt mixer with 10 speeds; 5-quart stainless steel bowl
    • Tilt-back head for easy access to mixture
    • 1 piece pouring shield with large chute for adding ingredients
    • Includes flat beater, dough hook, and wire whip
    • Measures 14 by 8-2/3 inches by 14 inches; 1-year warranty

    5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful appliance - good customer support, January 21, 2004

    Kathleen (Tijeras, NM United States) - See all my reviews
    My wedding gift mixer (a Sunbeam Mixmaster) turned 33 a week before Christmas, and my husband thought it was time for me to have a new one. He gifted me on Christmas with the KitchenAid 5 Qt. Artisan in white. I love this mixer and leave it out on my counter, something I never did with the Mixmaster. I recently purchased the citrus juicer attachment from Amazon and am very pleased with it as well. I have not read all 109 previous reviews on this site, but I have read a few that were disgruntled because their Artisans did not mix well. I initially had the same problem with the beater/bowl clearance. It is very simple to remedy. There is a beater adjustment screw on the mixer and the manual describes how to make the adjustments. I got even better instructions by calling customer support at KitchenAid. The technician told me to drop a dime into the empty bowl, turn the mixer on (about setting 2) using the flat beater, and it should move the dime 1/4" to 1/2" each time it rotates... Read more

    5.0 out of 5 stars What are you waiting for???, September 23, 2002
    By A Customer
    I love this thing! I have friends who've had KitchenAid mixers for years and they've always raved about their quality and durability. Well, I finally went for it and I have absolutely no regrets. You want to talk about a solid piece of kitchen machinery? This is the epitome of what "Made in America" used to mean! Unlike all the cheapo mixers out there, I'm completely confident that this thing will even outlast ME! The only problem is now I'm wondering why I waited so long!

    -----> This may help some of you - I read a review somewhere in which the reviewer gave this mixer a poor rating because it left dry ingredients in the bottom of the bowl - read the instruction booklet, people. It clearly states that if this occurs (or if the attachments scrape the bowl), there is an adjustment screw that raises or lowers the mixing assembly. I had to slightly lower mine and it now incorporates everything into the mix. The KitchenAid mixers are well worth the money....or... Read more

    5.0 out of 5 stars Best Mixer Ever! Love, Love, Love it! A+A+A+A+, September 26, 2003

    This KitchenAid mixer is an excellent investment! I just love mine! The dough hook attachment is the greatest invention ever. No more kneading! I used this wonderful machine to make 4 pounds of Pizza Geina dough without breaking a sweat. Add your ingredients, turn it on and it does the rest! It has a very powerful motor and every part of this mixer is excellent quality and well made. It is simple to lock in the mixing bowl and it is also a breeze to clean. The different attachments are very easy to attach and remove. It would be impossible not to love it! Did I mention how easy the clean up is? I love it so much I bought the KitchenAid quilted cover for it. Once you use this mixer you will never want to use anything else! The Best!!!
