KitchenAid Artisan stand mixer, 5 qt
"The stand mixer for big batches: 10 speeds, a 5-quart bowl and a head that tilts back for adding ingredients."
Why we picked it
We chose it for bakers who make big batches: the 5-quart bowl mixes about 9 dozen cookies at once.
- 10 speeds, from a slow stir to whipping cream
- Tilt-head design makes adding ingredients easy
- Over 20 colors, so it can match your kitchen
- Size
- 14.3 in wide, 14 in tall, 9.3 in deep; 22 lb
- Includes
- 5-quart stainless bowl, flat beater, dough hook, 6-wire whip and pouring shield
- Fits
- every KitchenAid power-hub attachment (pasta roller, food grinder and more, sold separately), per KitchenAid
Skip it if you bake only a few times a year; a hand mixer will do.
Before you buy
- Counter space: 14.3 in wide, 14 in tall, 22 lb. It stays out, so pick its spot before it arrives.
- Batch size: the 5-quart bowl handles about 9 dozen cookies or a bread dough; a tilt head makes adding ingredients easy under cabinets.
- What is in the box: bowl, flat beater, dough hook, wire whip and pouring shield. Attachments like the pasta roller are sold separately.
Fits: Bakers who bake most weeks, make bread or cookie dough in quantity, or want the attachment hub later.
Not for: A few bakes a year; a hand mixer does that for a fraction of the price and space.
Goes with
- TempPro TP19H instant-read thermometer: the thermometer for candy and custard
- Escali Primo digital kitchen scale: weigh the flour for the same result every time
- Lodge enameled Dutch oven, 6 qt: the pot for the bread the mixer kneads
