Why You Need a Stand Mixer in Your Kitchen
Friday November 21, 2008
Just before the holidays last year, I decided it was time to upgrade my stand mixer. So, to be sure I got the one I really wanted , I bought my wife one for Christmas! I have never had so much fun toying around with one of her gifts.
Seriously though, a stand mixer is one the best appliances you can have in your kitchen. I have been using them for some time now and would never go back to a hand mixer. Why do I love my stand mixer so much? Here are some reasons why I have one, and why you should have one too!

I so agree – i raised a family with only a hand mixer – while this was great for keeping my arm muscles firm there were many things i didn’t bother making. Then i finally got a kitchen aide. while i absolutely adore having a stand mixer finally, and have no need for the fancier one, i still wish i would have splurged and got the better model that raises and lowers the bowl. it is much easier to add ingredients to than the one where the motor tips up – i am constantly getting batter on my arm or getting the beater hung up on the container i am pouring out of. plus the other machine can make ice cream! it’s a frozen bowl that replaces the standard mixing bowl – wish i had that without a doubt – one less small appliance to store and worry about wearing out at the wrong moment.
spend the extra $100 if you at all can – you’ll be glad you did, especially if you use your mixer a lot or for heavy things like bread doughs.
