To be honest I was ecstatic when I ordered this mixer for myself as a birthday present. I’m in the kitchen most of my life, big on cooking and baking/deserts etc. It’s very aesthetically pleasing, looks well in my kitchen and is very sturdy. But my “off” switch did not come in working order when it arrived on my doorstep. There’s a sliding switch for all the levels. (off, 1, 2, 3….)My “off” is level 1. So is my level 1. If I plug it in in the “off” position, it turns on. If I switch it to level 1, it stays at the same speed. There is no change in speed/level until I switch to level 2. This is something I still haven’t gotten fixed, almost 2 years later. Living in the middle of New York City with no car and the subway as my only form of transportation, it’s very hard to haul such a heavy item all by my tiny (5′6, 115 lbs…I can’t carry this more than 2 feet let alone to the subway station, down 2 flights of steps, to the stop, up 2 flights of steps…you get my point-WITH a 4 month old baby in tow. It’s just not happening). So it’s a hassle to say the least. BUT otherwise it’s a good piece of equipment. Kitchenaid is a great brand and I’m sure once I get around to needing to get it fixed they will gladly help.

KitchenAid KSM150PSOB Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Onyx Black Specifications

KitchenAid’s Artisan stand mixer is a substantial piece of equipment: 325 watts of mixing power make child’s play of creaming butter, kneading dough, and whipping cream. The kid in you will appreciate how quick and easy it is to mix up a batch of cookie dough. This model comes with three attachments: a flat beater for making batter, meat loaf, and all textures in-between; a wire whip for egg whites, mayonnaise, and more air-infused creations; and a hook for mixing and kneading yeast doughs. All three are solidly constructed and easily secured to the beater shaft with a simple twist. This model also includes a pouring shield for guiding ingredients to their proper destination, and the bowl itself locks tight to the base. Standing about 15 inches high, jutting out a foot, and weighing more than a grown woman’s bowling ball, this stand mixer isn’t the sort of appliance you’ll wipe down and put away. Better to find a square foot of free counter space for easy access; besides, this machine is as pretty as it is rugged–you’ll want to show it off. –Betsy Danheim

From the Manufacturer

The Artisan mixer’s strong 325-watt motor delivers the power to handle the heaviest mixtures, and mix large batches easily.

The 5-quart polished stainless steel bowl with ergonomic handle is big enough to handle large batches of heavy mixtures. Its ergonomically designed handle is contoured to fit the hand and makes lifting the bowl more comfortable.

Unique Mixing Action

The beater spins clockwise as the shaft spins counter clockwise; moving the beater to 67 different points around the bowl. This unique mixing action creates a thorough blend of ingredients and eliminates the need to rotate the bowl.

Multiple Speeds

10 speeds allow the user to select the right speed for the mixing job; from very high to very slow stir. It’s easy to select the precise speed needed for a perfect mix.

Versatile Accessories

The flat beater, dough hook, and the professional wire whip add to the versatility of the mixer. The flat beater is the ideal accessory for mixing normal to heavy batters. From cake mixes to firm cookie dough, the flat beater mixes quickly and thoroughly.

The dough hook mixes and kneads yeast dough, saving both time and the effort of hand-kneading. The wire whip incorporates the maximum amount of air in whipped mixtures for fluffier whipped cream and angel food cakes.

All attachments are solidly constructed, and attach easily to the stand mixer.

Easy Clean Up

The pouring shield fits around the top of the bowl and prevents ingredient splash-out. The chute makes it convenient and easy to add ingredients.

The tilt-back mixer head allows for easy access to bowl and beaters. A lock lever holds the mixer head securely in place and the bowl fastens tightly to the base.

Optional Attachments

Optional attachments (sold separately) complete the package to make cooking a pleasure. From citrus juicer to sausage stuffer, KitchenAid stand mixers can handle just about any job in the kitchen.
