KitchenAid 600 is the top of the excellent range of KitchenAid stand mixers and head and shoulders above other mixers in its class giving you a huge number of reasons to buy. There’s plenty of proof for all to see. It has been tested by America’s Test kitchen and came through all tests with great results and hundreds of consumers have put finger to keyboard and rated the machine five out of five. (See the hundreds of KitchenAid 600 reviews HERE). It is almost difficult to know where to begin describing the finer points of the KitchenAid Professional 600 mixer but let’s list them for completeness before we see the mixer in action.
Robust All Metal Construction
Unlike other stand mixers, the KitchenAid mixer 600 has an all metal construction, including the all-important internal gears. This appliance came in for a lot of criticism when it was first produced as some parts were made from plastic and they were not robust enough for the machine. To their credit the company have answered all criticisms to ensure the quality of their design and the continuing reputation and supremacy of their mixers and now the KitchenAid Pro 600 stand mixer is the most sturdy and robust mixer you can buy.

Powerful Motor
The machine has a powerful 575 watt motor, which is more than ample for the toughest mixing jobs. It has a tough spiral dough hook and the power to knead a large batch of dough for bread or pizzas, something which tends to burn out weaker motors very quickly. If you have ever destroyed the motor of a mixer, you will know how easy it is to do, but your KitchenAid 600 mixer has a self protecting mechanism, which shuts off the motor in the unlikely event that it starts struggling.
Hugh Capacity
This professional stand mixer has a huge capacity with a 6 quart stainless steel bowl, giving it the ability to cope with up to 14 cups of flour in one batch or 8lbs of mashed potatoes, yet you need not worry about mixing smaller quantities. The planetary action of the beaters means that they cover the whole of the bowl at 67 different points to make sure every drop is mixed, whether you have a big batch of cakes or a single egg white.
Easy to Use
Although the KitchenAid 600 series mixer is professional in name, you do not need to be a professional to use it. It is truly child’s play to create bread and cookies or whip cream. You simply add the ingredients, lift the bowl to meet the beater using the lever on the side and set the machine going using the simple slider to adjust the speed through ten different speed settings. The lowest settings are best for kneading dough, while the highest settings are good for whipping cream. You will find that the unique soft start mode of the mixer and the pouring shield help prevent splashing and puffs of flour escaping from the bowl. You can add ingredients as you go either through the gap in the pouring shield or directly into the bowl, if you are not using the shield. The bowl is nice and wide so that you have plenty of room to do this.
Versatile
One of the things that come out of the consumer reviews of the KitchenAid professional 600 stand mixer is that buyers love the versatility of the machine. Hidden under a flip lid, is a power hub, which you can use to attach a whole number of optional gadgets. These allow you to turn your mixer into anything from a tomato juicer and sausage stuffer to a baby food processor and pasta maker. KitchenAid attachments are designed so that they fit any of the stand makers meaning that is you already own a food grinder or pasta maker from another KitchenAid mixer, it should also fit your new model.
Classic Color Options
This mixer comes in more classic colors than some of the other mixers. That is because it is built to last and may be around longer than your kitchen. You are sure to find them beautiful anyway.
