Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of KitchenAid KV25GOXMC Professional 5 Plus 5-Quart Stand Mixer, Metallic Chrome
Customer Review: Awesome, worth the money
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this Kitchenaid Professional 5 stand mixer after having been given a Sunbeam stand mixer for my birthday. The Sunbeam was the type with two beaters, and it was a disappointment. The first time I used the Sunbeam I had to remove the dough from it and use my trusty old hand mixer to finish. After trying with one other recipe with the same result, I decided it had to go. So I took it back to the store and got a refund. Then I hit my computer with a vengence. If I'm going to spend quite a bit of money on something, I'm going to get the best product for the best price. I did extensive research on all different types of stand mixers. Of course, Kitchenaid is the best in consumer line stand mixer. There are some more professional, much more expensive brands; but I don't run a business, so I don't need those. To me, all of the stand mixers (that are worth anything) cost a lot. I took a long, hard look at the Hamilton Beach stand mixers. But they are not known for being a stand mixer company, like Kitchenaid. I wanted something that will last. I can't afford to buy this type of item every year. So I decided on the Kitchenaid, for reliability, quality, and reputation (all of the Kitchenaid reviews were great). So I searched and searched until I found information that made my decision for me. Most of the consumer line stand mixers, the tilt back styles, have one gear that is plastic as opposed to all metal gears. It is designed this way so that if the motor comes under too great of a strain, the plastic gear breaks shutting down the machine. So the plastic gear breaks instead of your motor. If the motor goes out, you might as well buy a new mixer. The professional models, mostly the bowl lift types, have all metal gears and the motor has a built in safety to shut itself off if it becomes too hot from strain. You turn off the mixer, unplug it for a while, then turn it back on & it works. No calling a repair man to replace the plastic gear (minimum $70 service call). So for me the Professional 5 was the way to go. Also, I got a pretty good price with free shipping. Amazon.com was & still is the cheapest I have seen online. So far, I have made cakes, biscuits, cinnamon rolls, and cookies with my stand mixer. I even used it to mix up meatloaf. It did an awesome job of combining the dry ingredients with the meat. It did just fine with the thick cookie dough (using the flat beater), as well as the cinnamon roll dough (using the dough hook). I would recommend this stand mixer to anyone interested. I have had no problems with it at all.
Update 12-22-09: I just wanted to add that I recently made a coconut cream pie and used my Kitchenaid stand mixer to make the best whipped cream ever! I wanted to make a nice stiff whipped cream to top this pie, and this mixer made the best whipped cream in just a minute or two.
NOTE: I had to adjust my mixing time and baking time for the cakes I always make for people (birthdays, special occasions, etc.) because they were coming out a little dry at first. I started cutting the mixing time in half (or basically as soon as all of the ingredients were thoroughly combined) then checking the cake earlier, and I found that I have cut a least 5 - 10 minutes off of the original baking time; then they are moist & delicious!

Description of KitchenAid KV25GOXMC Professional 5 Plus 5-Quart Stand Mixer, Metallic Chrome
The Professional 5 Plus has a powerful 450-watt motor that delivers enough power to handle the heaviest mixtures, and mixes large batches easily. This special bowl lift model has brackets on the bowl that fit over support pins on the stand mixer, which is than lifted up by a handle on the right side of the mixer to lock the bowl in place while mixing (this design is made to handle heavy mixtures and large recipes). The 5-quart polished stainless steel bowl is dishwasher safe. Its ergonomically designed handle is contoured to fit the hand and makes lifting the bowl more comfortable. This mixer also features a unique mixing action: the beater spins clockwise as the shaft spins counter clockwise, moving the beater to 67 different points around the bowl. This distinctive mixing action creates a thorough blend of ingredients and eliminates the need to rotate the bowl. 10 speeds allow the user to select the right speed for the mixing job, from very high to a very slow stir. The flat beater, dough hook, and professional wire whip add to the versatility of the mixer. In addition, the Soft Start mixing feature helps prevent ingredient splash-out and "flour puff" at startup, while "Overload Reset" helps eliminate overheating of the motor. A hinged hub cover flips up, allowing easy installation of attachments and never leaves the mixer. 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.Thirty percent more powerful than KitchenAid?s previous 5-quart stand mixers, this professional model efficiently tackles heavy loads with its 450-watt motor, direct-drive all-steel gear transmission, and bowl-lift lever that effortlessly raises heavy ingredients up to the beater. KitchenAid stand mixers, constructed of durable die-cast metal, come in a variety of colors and styles that have become American classics.
With a choice of ten speeds and three attachments--flat beater, spiral dough hook, and stainless-steel wire whip--the mixer handles everything from egg whites to meat loaf to pizza dough. Rather than rotating the bowl, KitchenAid stand mixers feature a fixed bowl with a unique mixing action: the beater spins clockwise as the shaft spins counter-clockwise, thus projecting the beater to 67 different points inside the 5-quart stainless-steel bowl. In deference to its power, the Soft-Start feature prevents splashing and flour clouds by gearing up to each speed gradually; then the electronic speed sensor kicks in to maintain a constant speed even when mixing the thickest batter. The bowl features a handle as well as two pins that hook into the lifting mechanism, which consists of a solid metal arm the same color as the mixer and a stainless-steel lever. A hinged attachment hub makes changing attachments easy. For safety, the mixer shuts down if an object obstructs the mixing process or if overloading occurs. The bowl, beater, and dough hook are dishwasher-safe. Assembled in Ohio, the mixer measures 16-1/2 by 12 by 14 inches and is backed by a hassle-free, one-year warranty. --Ann Bieri
