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.

From the Manufacturer
The Artisan mixer's strong
325-watt motor delivers the power to handle the heaviest mixtures, and mixes large batches easily.
The 5-quart polished-stainless-steel bowl with ergonomic handle is big enough to accommodate 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 counterclockwise, 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
Ten 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 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 Cleanup
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.
