Bak, bak, bak, BAK!!! Kitchen Aid Mixers...

Alright bakers, I need some help. My mom had surgery recently for a torn rotator cuff. The surgery was only partially succesful.

She likes to bake--homemade bread, doughnuts, cookies etc. I don't see how she's going to be able to stir and work with dough with her injured shoulder for quite some time.

Kitchen Aid mixer for Christmas? Any suggestions for which one? They seem to have around a dozen models (tilt stand, lift) etc.

I don't bake and I don't know jack about mixers.

It just occurred to me that that bitch Tiki probably knows all about mixers. Smiley_emoticons_fies

If I was you I would go for the one that does bread and pastry dow.

Just a thought you understand.

RE: Bak, bak, bak, BAK!!! Kitchen Aid Mixers...

they are essential!

of course get heavy-duty one with dough hook. and they are $$$ but will last forever.
in fact i am pissed off my old one won't die because i wanted the new candy-apple red one with a glass bowl. hahaha it's gorgeous.

but for your Mom, get a color she likes, steel bowl, heavy-duty for bread.


i like your Christmas kitty. Smiley_emoticons_biggrin

Is there only one that does bread and pastry dough? I thought you might have to get some attachment thingamajig for dough...?

I could probably research this a little more but I'm lazy. I'd rather someone just hand me the answer, please. Smiley_emoticons_razz

Try the artisan series, no smaller than the 500.

It works for me.

299 at amazon.

whatever you think would be less stressful for her. can you go to a store like williams-sonoma and check them out? mine is a tilt. but i can't be sure for your mom.

RE: Bak, bak, bak, BAK!!! Kitchen Aid Mixers...

Thanks Dick! I'll check out that series.

LC, I was at Macy's yesterday and looked at a few but I didn't notice that some tilted etc. I'll go back and take another look before I order. I plan on getting it online so I can have it shipped directly to her. I hope she'll use it--she's sort of a baking purist (no interest in bread machines or anything like that).

I'm going to buy it from somewhere reputable (maybe Amazon) that has a fairly easy return policy just in case.

even basic ones will come with a dough hook and a few other doodads. like a whisk thingy. and a paddle-type attachment for cookie dough.

By the way the worst speller I ever knew was an interior designer/architect she also had bad feminine odor.
