    Ooooh, I love my KA stand mixer but I rarely use it as such (only for pie crusts). I use the PTO for saucing tomatoes and apples, and running the pasta maker.

    DO NOT try use the strainer attachment to seed raspberries though. The seeds are just the right/wrong size that they will jam it like you would not have believed possible. The whole thing will stop turning and you'll be lucky to get the attachment off. You have been warned.

    I can't remember the last time I used a mixer for anything but I've always admired the design of the KA mixer.
    I hope everyone got theirs in red . They should be red for proper zazz.

    Nahh, mine is black to match my appliances but the colored ones are snazzy! It is pretty funny this thread has turned into the KA Mixer fan club thread.

    Not only did I get all my Kitchenaid appliances (and pots and pans and knives and utensils) in red, but I painted my kitchen to match:

    Ooooh, me like!

    My mixer is white like all my other appliances. I didn't pick the color, but he knew what would match every single other appliance. I buy white appliances so I can paint my kitchen whatever color I please. Plus, I have a really old Victorian house, so I can't go too modern or kitschy with color. IOW appliances are too modern for my house!

    Bravo NoNo! That is a really eye catching kitchen. Mine is a nice sage green, I love it but I got the mixer when I was still an apartment dweller so black is versatile.

    I'm in an apartment (well renting in a 3 family house). I asked if I could paint, my landlord said yes. Then he saw the paint cans and had second thoughts, but it was too late by then! Because the kitchen flows into the dining/living room, I had to pick a color that would go with the red:

    Ummmm, what are IOW appliances? Living in England I can only relate it to being Isle of Wight.

    Cheers.
