KitchenAid Stand Mixer: A Must Have Kitchen Tool
Why Would You Want A Stand Mixer?
There was a point in my life, believe it or not, that I thought there was no way I'd ever bake, and because of that I saw no real need for a stand mixer. I always loved cooking, but baking didn't come naturally to me. Things have changed, I bake bread, make cakes, but beyond that I have learned that really I mix a lot of things, and a stand mixer would sure speed that up.
KitchenAid Stand Mixer
A stand mixer is your perfect kitchen tool for all your mixing needs. Making the perfect batter, needing dough just right, beating egg whites to form perfect meringue. And with the host of attachments available for the KitchenAid stand mixer it makes this tool a clear winner.

Favourite Uses?
I have never had a stand mixer, but they sure would have been handy to have when I still had kids at home. - Very nice lens. :)
I just got a KitchenAid mixer and I love it! I even made ground hamburger with it!
I couldn't live with my KitchenAid!
Looks good!! I'm going to buy one very soon!!!
They're fantastic for making cakes and whipping cream.
I make bread every week in mine and it is the best thing for whipping cream
I have one I bought for my birthday 2 years ago and really glad that I did. I love baking cakes and healthy cookies for my kids. Why I stayed a martyr doing it with a hand-held beater? Blame it to the conservative hubby. I should have known better.

@arnman2007: Nice. kneading bread dough by hand is a pain, hopfully I can afford to get a mixer soon so I can avoid it from now on when I make bread :D
I have one but I haven't gotten around to using it...I may just have to pull it out now. Thanks!
Normally I use it to make bread dough and pizza dough, but lately after watching show after show of Cake Boss, my mixer has become a double used item now. I cant leave home without it.
I nearly did one on mixers but have decided on something else...yet to start though

I was thinking of doing one on mixers - you inspire me! Thanks! ;-)
Hi TheMeadMan, I was glad to see the example you made for this tool quest. I like the mix of information and products you featured for the mixer. I'm just getting my feet wet here at Squidoo and seeing how well you serve visitors is great.
Good luck, as I'm sure you'll be helping visitors a lot!
I LOVE my KitchenAid stand mixer. Because of its heavy base, I can let it run, mixing my ingredients, while I work on the next step in the recipe. Mostly I use it for baking--brownies, cookies, cakes, etc.
