Overview

KitchenAid Professional 600 Series stand mixer is a powerful performance. With its 575 watts, I think this is KitchenAid’s most powerful stand mixer. It is a solid, heavy duty kitchen mixer and strong enough to handle bread doughs (although I see that some people aren’t satisfied with the mixer, as far as kneading bread dough is concerned).

This kitchen mixer will save you time because it is fast and efficient. It has also beautiful and easy to clean design, available in a variety of fashionable colors. In addition, it’s probably the best kitchen mixer available to the home baker in this price range.

Is this mixer for you?

KitchenAid Pro 600 mixer is designed for the serious home baker - I would recommend it to everyone who does a lot of baking (a lot of kneading of bread and pizza doughs). However, if you occasionally need to use a mixer for smaller items, I would save the money and buy a smaller one.

It can effectively mix up to 14 cups of all-purpose flour per recipe and produce up to 8 pounds of mashed potatoes, or over 8 loaves of bread. The 6 quart bowl is big enough to double and triple recipes.

The mixer has very useful soft start mixing feature, which helps to beat the ingredients without scattering them out of the bowl. It has also a lot of attachments that make it even more useful. The mixer includes:

• a 6-quart-capacity stainless-steel mixing bowl
• a professional wire whip
• a burnished flat beater
• a spiral dough hook
• a clear two-piece pouring shield

The spiral dough hook works very efficiently… no longer does the dough “slap” against the side of the bowl.

Some things for consideration

The mixer is big and heavy (it measures 14-3/5 by 16-1/2 by 11-2/7 inches). Because of its size and weight you may wish to put the mixer on the kitchen countertop, so you need to make sure you have enough space for it. In addition, the mixer can get noisy when it is working on a high speed.

Where to find the best price for KitchenAid Pro 600 mixer on Internet?

I think Amazon.com has very good offers for this kind of kitchen mixers at the moment. In addition to the cheapest price, it is a pleasure to purchase something from Amazon because of their customer friendly policy.
