My sister, who has a pretty low-end hand mixer, is looking to upgrade and I, being the dutiful older sister, told her I’d ask the Chowhounds about the Cuisinart combination hand/stand mixer that she’s interested in....

Can I just say that I have owned the vaunted kitchenaid stand mixer, professional model, for 13 months and it just broke down? I took it into a repairman (warranty ended a month ago, natch), and he said that one of the gears is...

I’m looking to purchase a KitchenAid 5-Quarter Artisan stand mixer in Tangerine. Does anyone know where I might find it for less than Amazon’s price of $269.95? I do receive the 20% off coupons from Bed Bath and...
