I have wanted a KitchenAid for a long time, and had my eye on this one when I found it on Great Offer Stock. I am a Club Great Offer Stock member and have been saving my club dollars for this mixer. When it went on sale I jumped on it, I got a great deal on it, and I couldn't be happier. I bake a lot and this mixer is great for me. I have been making cakes and cupcakes and breads ever since I got. I am very Happy. Love the Pearl Metallic color. Would recommend to all who do a lot of baking. Join Club Great Offer Stock and start earning reward dollars. It Paid for my mixer. :)
