Kitchenaid MixersHow To Choose The
Right One For You With their
distinctive shape and bright colors, Kitchenaid mixers are seen
everywhere from television cooking shows to your grandmother's
kitchen. Assembled by hand in the USA, each sturdy, reliable
model is of the highest quality. The Artisan Stand Mixer by
Kitchenaid is truly one of the best investments you can make for your
kitchen. As you will soon learn, deciding to buy your new Artisan mixer is just the beginning. It is very easy to be overwhelmed when you see just how many Kitchenaid mixers are available. Here are some guidelines to help you choose the right one for you.
First,
you should decide whether you need a "tilt-head" or a "bowl-lift"
mixer. On the "tilt-head" model, the bowl fastens to the base of
the mixer, and the head tilts upward to allow access to it and the
beaters. This model is ideal for most household use. The
"bowl-lift" model, on the other hand, is what you will need for more
heavy-duty jobs, such as mixing thick batters and doughs. On this
model the head is fixed, and the bowl raises and lowers into position
with the use of a lever. The "bowl-lift" mixer is commonly used
for commercial purposes. Second,
you will need to decide what capacity you require of your mixer. Kitchenaid mixers come in a wide variety of
sizes. When choosing the size, consider what
you plan to use it for. Will you make pancake batter for your
family of four, or will you whip up six dozen cookies for the school
bake sale? With
these practical considerations out of the way, now you can move on to
the fun part: color! Kitchenaid mixers
come in just about every color you can imagine, from boysenberry to
pear to ice. Feel free to be bold when choosing your
mixer; let it be a showpiece in your kitchen. Of
course, you won't want to forget all the accessories and
attachments. Did you know you can even get decals to
personalize
the look of your mixer? Click on the picture of the mixer above
