My old 325watt 5 quart Kitchenaid has been struggling with kneading bread dough. I've rebuilt it once but it still sometimes would stop and hum. It's still fine for everything else, though loud. We have had it, for, I believe, over 25 years. For Thanksgiving, I made fresh bread (delicious) but had to do all the kneading by hand--this is why old-time bakers all had big muscular arms--it's a workout! The old machine will go to one of our offspring because it still does everything else better than a hand mixer, and probably any other mixer.
This machine is 500 watts, and 7 quarts, and comes with the regular beater, squeegee beater for things like cake mixes, a wire whisk, improved pouring shield, and a pig-tail dough hook, a huge improvement on the old flat hook. First time making bread (NEVER go over the #2 speed!) it powered through the dough quietly and only after many, many minutes got a little warm, where the old one couldn't be run for more than 2 minutes at a time (when kneading dough) with a minute or two to cool each time. I didn't even have to do a final hand knead!
Despite being bigger and stronger it actually doesn't take up much more real estate than the old one and feels a bit lighter surprisingly, although still very heavy. Lots of little improvements: A nice knob on the lifting jack handle, a better-looking brushed nickel knob on the speed control over the old black plastic one, and 11 speeds rather than ten. The pouring shield is now one piece rather than two and enclosed on top rather than open, and works very well. They even upgraded the power-takeoff locking screw and cover. Finally, they added a cord wrap when not using it.
So far, the only drawback is the handsome textured matte black finish: flour gets stuck on it much more easily than on the smooth finish. I do not know if the other colors are the same or smooth, but this was the right color for our kitchen.

The color is amazing
She is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life using this mixer. I had my other KitchenAid for 18 years, but my youngest is moving out and uses it all the time, so I’m giving her my old one. They last forever so she should be set. A little congratulations to me for raising two humans into adulthood lol.

Fantastic Mixer - Cast Iron Finish
Color: Cast Iron BlackStyle: MixerVerified Purchase
Really happy with this mixer. The speed settings are great, and the knobs are a brushed metal making it feel pretty luxe. The attachments it comes with also feel high quality and have decent variety. The cast iron black finish is sort of a matte and it looks really clean and sharp on the counter. Good power for bigger batches and the deeper bowl vs wider is nice as well.AshleyFantastic Mixer - Cast Iron Finish
