OK. Serious comment about Kitchen Aid mixers (I know a serious comment in the CH is a dangerous thing):
The old Kitchen Aid mixers by Hobart were a known good thing (way beyond "good thing"). Hobart sold the Kitchen Aid line some time ago, and while they are still ok, they are nowhere near as good as they once were. The new owner kept the same design, but went with much cheaper internal parts. There have been a number of reports of the motor burning out within a couple of years if the mixer was used to mix stiffer bread doughs and other heavier tasks.
Note: I have enjoyed baking for decades and seriously looked into getting a Kitchen Aid mixer at one time but decided to pass on it for the above reasons).
