I wish I had gotten a Kitchenaid before Whirlpool took them over. :(

Why is that???

The mixer (5qt Elite... or whatever the line name is) has very good reviews all over the web. The add-on attachments, not so much.

It just joined the QueasyArt food processor on the countertop... like we have infinite room. :glare:

You're murdering me over here, Meggers.

:blink: I know right?! They have great stuff! You...you could call them and they even let you know when they'll be back and you can call them and tell them what ya want. Annnnnnd...in the summer, if you're not gonna be home, they have this special bag thing that they put dry ice in and it keeps the stuff good til you get home. :D

Mine is post-buyout too. So no offense. It's what you get now.

At one time, the cheap Geoff basteds even put plastic gears inside. They've gone back to all metal now (Gears are expensive parts to make, I guess. Not just simple stamp shaping of metal.)

There's tons of references to "This is not your Grandma's Kitchenaid". Although, yes, overall they get good reviews. I bought one too. If for nothing other than I'll probably be able to get parts if I ever need to because they are not at all uncommon. I hope I'll never knead to (get it?).

Overall, I really like it.

It has yet to be used here.

I tried the QueasyArt to just slice celery stalks into thin slices. Whatta mess. And clean-up is really a chore. SO MUCH BETTER to just use a chef's knife and cutting board. (BTW: That is ALL the Queasyart has been used for... except to gather dust, kitchen grease and my cigarette smoke residue.)

On that note, time to go watch the news....

:blink: May as well not bother Atty. It's the same chit every day. The government sucks, people being all self righteous and "I don't so you shouldn't either" attitudes and throw in a couple of shootings, some drugs and a entertainer doing something stupid. That's the news. Every day. Over and over and over and over. :blink:
