Excellent deal!

Oooh flat black too. NICE SCORE. Wife was all about a glass bowl for ours and that thing cost the same as the mixer itself.

What size is it? I just bought a Silver 6 quart one from Costco for $299. Online... I didn't want to go near the store last weekend so I paid $10 for shipping.

5.5 qt. I saw the one you had online . Nice mixer . The one you bought is a Pro model ? Great price on that also .

I just looked at some bread bowl with a lid . Mix the dough , then it has a lid to use it to bake . Yup . Not cheap .
Son just mixed up some pizza dough . Damn that thing is nice .

It doesn't say pro model on it anywhere. I haven't taken it out of the box yet. Model # KSM60SECXER https://www.costco.com/KitchenAid-6-Quart-Bowl-Lift-Stand-Mixer,-Silver.product.2303477.html

Good buy.
Got the lift bowl, not a huge fan because of the little room you have when lowered getting the paddle blade off when full of ingredients. Have learned to work around it though.
The stainless grinder attachments for these are pretty nice for small, quick jobs.

I saw one that said Pro 600 on the head .
You got a killer deal on yours . The extra attachment and the chute / shield thing are worth the extra $50 .

Great deal Rich. Indispensable kitchen tool.

I would agree . We have a Kenmore branded Cuisinart tilt head That I use now . The fixed head is different for sure .

Indispensable kitchen tool.

Yeah , once you have one you need 2 more . Lol .

Love the KitchenAid.
30 years we bought a lift bowl model and wife didn't like it.
Returned it and got the smaller tilt head. Never looked back.

If you want to get into a war, post on a bread baking forum on the virtues of KA over Bosch...

I have read KA has issued new guidelines significantly reducing how long you can run their motors on high.

I don't remember what I paid for my KA, but whatever the price, it was worth it. It's a tank.

Nice!

I had the lift bowl pro 6 quart Silver. It was a beast. Wish I had kept it.

Just sold before I joined on here. I was told it was too big and did not get enough use. It would now ,
It reminded me of a mini Hobart mixer. really liked it.

Those are good prices you guys are getting. Bought mine from Sears when they were still around here.

Mine is a Professional 5 Plus or something like that. Sourdough is not an issue. I think that I read that the Pro models have metal gears as opposed to the plastic gears on the other models. Mine has several years of heavy use on it without a whimper.

I don't think our KA has ever been used at high speed. I think 3 maybe 4 is the top speed.
Never any problems with the hundreds of cookie batches my wife made over the years.

Ours is 30 years old and from what I've been told is US made and with better components than the offshore products.
Need to take it apart and grease the gears to check it out..

I had the 1950's Dormeyer mixwell out over the weekend . Still works .
