abunda_amazon_reviews Kitchenaid has definitely cut corners recently. They are sadly not what they were for many years. I had to scrub the Stainless Steel bowl literally ten times with baking soda and lemon, then finally Barkeeper's Friend three times before all the silver residue came out of the new bowl, and i still wonder what i will be consuming. The bowls are now made in India and I assume a final acid wash is now not being used. Also, the mixer had lubricant/oil all over the mixer and safety stickers placed crooked. It was a PROJECT just to be ready to use it. Why they would put their customers through this is beyond me. Seems like a great way to kill a successful company. Also, the spring that used to be on the spindle thingy is now gone. The paddle moves around more than it used to. I bought one in 2005 and it was a completely different experience. I was stupid to sell that one, but I got into different color schemes for my kitchen and got rid of it. My conclusion is that unless you're ready to work for your mixer to be ready to use, it may serve you to try a different brand. If the cool attachments that Kitchenaid offers for this mixer is worth it to you, then, by all means, get one but be ready to sweat for it. This is yet another American company cutting corners yet charging the same and riding on reputation alone. This saddens me. Attached are pictures of the bowl being cleaned. The powder in the photos is baking soda that I repeatedly used to get the gunk out of it. Barkeeper's Friend would be a better cleaning option I believe. Good Luck!;;Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2018;;3.0 out of 5 stars;;Not what they used to be.;;John Whirling;;;Bought this as a gift. I'm certain after seeing it unwrapped that these have been reconditioned. The stainless bowl had a small dent in it and there were fingerprints on the mixer straight out of the sealed box. I think it is terrible that they don't advertise that they are reconditioned. There's nothing wrong with getting a reconditioned mixer, but advertise the truth and let people make the decision for themselves.;;Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2017;;3.0 out of 5 stars;;I think it is terrible that they don't advertise that they are reconditioned;;Amazon Customer;;;I bought this over a month ago and it was quick to overheat and make incredibly loud squeaking noises as it mixed, I didn't want to replace it because it was a hassle I didn't want to deal with but then I decided to go ahead and replace, turns out my defective original machine got replaced by another defective machine. What are the odds of that happening. The head that spins, cracked, on the very first use, as soon as I unboxed it, and I had no idea until I saw little tiny specks of metal in my dough, it deposited metal shavings in the dough and I had to throw it out. The one machine I'm excited to add to my kitchen, the brand that has a solid reputation, turns out to be defective, twice! It blows, I don't want to try a third time, I don't even want the mixer anymore.;;Reviewed in the United States on June 26, 2017;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;What are the odds;;Miriam;;;The mixer is great, obviously. You all know that. The purpose of this review is more to help with the color selection, in case anyone out there was like me and struggling to differentiate between Ice Blue and Aqua Sky. I had seen Ice Blue in person at Target. But I could not find Aqua Sky in person, and struggled with trying to figure out which online pictures were accurate. There weren't that many real life pictures available to look at. So I just winged it and ordered Aqua Sky. Luckily its perfect for me. And here is the best way I can describe the difference between the two colors. ICE BLUE is a very light, bright, airy (and did I say bright?) blue with a touch of green. Gorgeous. and AQUA SKY is a turquoise a few shades darker. More like the color of the stones you would see in Native American jewelry. Compared to Ice Blue I'd say it's more of a country blue/green. Like a Ball jar. (for reference I have included a picture of it beside an actual Ball jar lol). In the other photo I have placed a baby blue cup and a light mint green plate, so you can see how the shade of Aqua Sky kind of falls in between the two. One pic with flash and one without. I hope this helps anyone else out there who is struggling to figure out what the shades actually look like and which is best for their kitchen.;;Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2017;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Aqua Sky color;;Rainey4Pres;;;Seems like it works really well, but I had to clean the bowl for 45 minutes with a baking soda solution to clean off contamination leftover from KitchenAid's polishing process (which I was directed to do by KitchenAid on their website). Since this is such an expensive product I think that they should be the ones to change their polishing process instead of having me finish their work for them or risk contaminating my food. The company knows this is an issue, I find it disappointing that they're not fixing the issue;;Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2017;;3.0 out of 5 stars;;Seems like it works really well;;Amazon Customer;;;I use this mixer to make bread. Even though I owned a kitchen aid for many years, this was a smaller one therefore I followed the instructions on the amount of flour and the correct speed as indicated in the instruction book that came with the mixer. At first it worked great, but then after four months the bowl suddenly came undone in the middle of kneeding. It was scary. So the next time I used even less flour than was indicated. The same thing happened again. When I called Kitchen Aid Customer Service I was told that the instructions in the book were incorrect and that the total ingredients for my mixer could only be six cups, including liquid and flour. That's incredible! Why didn't they just tell me it was a faulty model. I am very disappointed in Kitchen Aid.;;Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2017;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;At first it worked great, but then after four months the bowl suddenly ...;;Wanda Nazworth;;;I love my current Kitchenaid, and I expected the same from this one. I ordered it and it was missing the spring on the beater shaft. Amazon sent a replacement in the same color, and the spring was missing from that one, too. After a lengthy "chat" with Amazon, the person decided that perhaps all were defective; at any rate, they couldn't guarantee that all mixers in this color didn't have the same missing part. Frustrating. I expect more from Kitchenaid. I bought my current one in 1988 and it's still working. I planned on getting a color and passing this one on to my daughter. It's disappointing that I can't even use this one new. And the replacement is also problematic. It makes me worry about what is wrong or defective in the manufacturing that I cannot see.;;Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2017;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;Defective Kitchenaid!!;;s losee
