KitchenAid KP26M1XBS Professional 600, 6-Quart Bowl Lift Stand Mixers Review

I still have my Kitchenaid Classic Stand Mixer for 17 years and it is still kicking, but I have wanted this newer, bigger Kitchenaid for sometime. The price was the only thing keeping me from buying. My husband convinced me that in spite of the price tag, it’s a well-made machine and if it lasts as long as my Classic, it would be well worth the plunge. I checked prices all over and Amazon was the best price (especially since I got mine w/o shipping costs!). I also lucked out because I opened an Amazon account, and Kitchenaid offered a mail-in rebate!! It was a great Christmas gift to me! I purchased dark pewter which wasn’t what I thought it was when I got it. I called customer service at Amazon and they couldn’t have been nicer. They said that I could switch it for the correct color, no problem, since the color appeared different on the website. I decided I didn’t want to wait any longer and kept the dark pewter–which still looks good with my black appliances (licorce was my other choice). It’s great to know that Amazon was so cooperative. I also like purchasing from Amazon because of the very helpful reviews.
Now about the machine. It’s beautiful. I don’t have a problem with the size, but please note it is BIG (height and width). I love the fact that the bowl is 6 quart so you can mix batches of cookies, potatoes, etc. You can even add ingredients easily since the bowl was made wider–I can add while it’s mixing. I love the bowl-lift design…easier than the tilt head of my older Kitchenaid. And the soft-start feature really does work. I can’t comment about the different speeds, because in the 17 years of having Kitchenaid stand mixers, I hardly use the higher speeds (except the occasional home-made whipped cream, etc). At any speed, Kitchenaids are very powerful work horses. I haven’t used the accessory hub yet, but I know it will work wonderfully. You used to have to unscrew the cap; now they put it on a hinge so you just have to flip it!
If you want a dependable, long-lasting, well-made, beautiful machine, forget the other machines and get a Kitchenaid. You won’t regret it.
