Product Description
More is more sometimes, at least in the world of small appliances. KitchenAid has introduced a new member of the stand mixer family, known as the Artisan mixer. It has a tilting head, like the KSM90, but it has a larger 5 qt. capacity bowl. It also gives you more oomph, as in 325 watts of cookie dough busting power. What's not to love? If you've been considering a stand mixer, this may be the perfect "starter model" for you.
Amazon.com Review
KitchenAid's Artisan stand mixer is a substantial piece of equipment: 325 watts of mixing power make child's play of creaming butter, kneading dough, and whipping cream. The kid in you will appreciate how quick and easy it is to mix up a batch of cookie dough. This model comes with three attachments: a flat beater for making batter, meat loaf, and all textures in-between; a wire whip for egg whites, mayonnaise, and more air-infused creations; and a hook for mixing and kneading yeast doughs. All three are solidly constructed and easily secured to the beater shaft with a simple twist. This model also includes a pouring shield for guiding ingredients to their proper destination, and the bowl itself locks tight to the base. Standing about 15 inches high, jutting out a foot, and weighing more than a grown woman's bowling ball, this stand mixer isn't the sort of appliance you'll wipe down and put away. Better to find a square foot of free counter space for easy access; besides, this machine is as pretty as it is rugged--you'll want to show it off. --Betsy Danheim From the Manufacturer  The Artisan mixer's strong 325-watt motor delivers the power to handle the heaviest mixtures, and mix large batches easily. The 5-quart polished stainless steel bowl with ergonomic handle is big enough to handle large batches of heavy mixtures. Its ergonomically designed handle is contoured to fit the hand and makes lifting the bowl more comfortable. Unique Mixing Action The beater spins clockwise as the shaft spins counter clockwise; moving the beater to 67 different points around the bowl. This unique mixing action creates a thorough blend of ingredients and eliminates the need to rotate the bowl.  Multiple Speeds 10 speeds allow the user to select the right speed for the mixing job; from very high to very slow stir. It's easy to select the precise speed needed for a perfect mix. Versatile Accessories  The flat beater, dough hook, and the professional wire whip add to the versatility of the mixer. The flat beater is the ideal accessory for mixing normal to heavy batters. From cake mixes to firm cookie dough, the flat beater mixes quickly and thoroughly. The dough hook mixes and kneads yeast dough, saving both time and the effort of hand-kneading. The wire whip incorporates the maximum amount of air in whipped mixtures for fluffier whipped cream and angel food cakes. All attachments are solidly constructed, and attach easily to the stand mixer. 
Easy Clean Up The pouring shield fits around the top of the bowl and prevents ingredient splash-out. The chute makes it convenient and easy to add ingredients. The tilt-back mixer head allows for easy access to bowl and beaters. A lock lever holds the mixer head securely in place and the bowl fastens tightly to the base.
Optional Attachments  Optional attachments (sold separately) complete the package to make cooking a pleasure. From citrus juicer to sausage stuffer, KitchenAid stand mixers can handle just about any job in the kitchen.

 Red KitchenAid mixer September 2, 2008
I have wanted a KitchenAid stand mixer since 1952. Finally gave in and bought myself one for Christmas. It is a gorgeous red, and it decorates my counter because it is too heavy to move much, and also too beautiful to hide. I am very happy with this purchase. It works well, is easy to use, does a good job. Worth waiting for.
Wonderful September 1, 2008
I love this - should have invested years' ago. It is heavy, but this means it doesn't move across the counter when in use. Every part of it seems strong and substantial, except the silly plastic flour adder piece that sits on top - this doesn't even fit properly. I would definitely recommend this item to anyone - and Amazon.com had the best price plus free shipping.
Wow! August 31, 2008
Works perfectly. Wish I had bought one years ago. Only problem is it mixes so fast you want to have all ingredients ready to add. No problem making whipped cream.
kitchen aid mixer August 28, 2008
I have always wanted a kitchen aid mixer, but thought they were
expensive. After careful consideration, and research, the Artisan mixer was what I wanted, and Amazon.com had the best price ANYWHERE! I was thrilled with the mixer, and feel it was money well spent.
Everything and More August 19, 2008
After using cheap hand mixers for years I finally decided to get off the wallet and buy something that would last more than a couple of years and at the same time make life in the kitchen a lot easier. I've had my eye on a KitchenAid mixer to complement the kitchen in my new home for almost 2 years now. I finally said enough is enough and bought the Onyx Black, Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer.
Immediately, chocolate chip cookies were not only easier to make, but tasted better. Ditto for a few of the bread recipes I've tried in the past. Great mashed potatos followed by a killer Belgian waffle batter were next and I continue to look for recipes of foods I never dared try in the past.
This mixer has the guts and power that make any recipe a snap. I don't think there is a chore out there that this mixer couldn't stand up to. One thing that surprised me was how quiet this mixer is even when running on the higher settings.
Cleanup is easy too. A quick wipe down with a damp towel is all that's needed. The attatchments and 5 quart bowl are dishwasher safe if you don't feel like cleaning by hand.
As stated in other reviews, this KitchenAid is no lightweight at 20+ pounds so find a permanent spot for it in a prominent area of your kitchen. In my case, the island in the middle of the kitchen was a no brainer and brings instant compliments when company arrives.
For those who are considering buying a stand mixer, there is no other choice. Buy the KitchenAid and you can't go wrong.
