Amazon.com Product Description: With 475 watts of power and a 5-quart bowl capacity, you can be assured that this refurbished KitchenAid Professional 5 Plus stand mixer tackles big jobs. This factory-reconditioned machine prepares food for a crowd and ably handles tough mixes. Its body features durable die-cast metal construction and offers a direct-drive transmission and all-metal gears. The sturdy lifting mechanism uses a metal arm and steel lever to effortlessly raise an ingredient-filled bowl. The bowl itself features stainless steel construction, two pins to attach to the lifting arm, and an ergonomically designed handle for comfort during use.
Ten speeds allow for everything from whipping egg whites to slow churning bread dough and the Soft-Start feature keeps power in check to prevent splashing and flour clouds. A unique mixing action spins the beater clockwise while the shaft spins counter clockwise; this results in an even blend. As a safety measure, the motor stops in the event of an obstruction or overloading. An integrated hub cover with hinge flips up to allow easy installation of attachments. A flat beater comes with purchase but additional pieces including a wire whip, dough hook, citrus juicer, and sausage stuffer can be purchased separately. The machine measures 16-1/2 by 12 by 14 inches. Pop the bowl and beater in the dishwasher for cleaning and wipe the main body with a warm damp cloth.

The biggest dissapointment was the paddle, beater, and hook that came with this. NOT the same quality as it used to be- in fact these state "not dishwasher safe, may discolor". They have to be joking, everything ... Read More
Rating: - Great mixer - and incredible price
KitchenAid mixers are so well-built that it's hard to imagine paying full price when a reconditioned option is available. It came with all the attachments and would be impossible to tell from brand new. Only difference ... Read More
Rating: - Sometimes a refurb bites you...
I bought one of these mixers fully aware of the fact that I was getting a refurbished unit that may not be perfect. Sure enough after a couple of months of pretty light use the speed control went out on my unit. It didn't ... Read More
Rating: - Best mixer ever!
We absolutely love our KitchenAid Mixer. I was a little leary of purchasing a factory-reconditioned product - but it was in perfect shape. This mixer truly gets the job done quickly and is so easy to use and clean.
