KitchenAid KSM180QHSD 100 Year Limited Edition Queen of Hearts Stand Mixer, Passion Red, 5 Qt

Solid sturdy device. Metallic paint is great quality, ruggedness is great, nice and thick metal construction and motor is great. This unit is a bit heavy, in a good way as this meants they didn't go cheap on metal construction and keeps the unit firm in place when you are mixing your eggs or dough.My hearing is not the best as I have tinitus and I tend to have my TV louder than usual. To my point, I did feel the motor could be quieter, it is no blender grinding ice, but I thought the motor could be a few decibels quieter for the unit size.I still recommend this unit 100%, my kid makes cakes, whip cream, home made corn tortillas, cup cakes, it is such a life saver. You just set the unit up, wait 5 or 10 minutes and your batter, whip cream or dough is readtly without and or finger fatigue, it definitely will make your baking that much fun.

I've waited my entire life to be able to have a kitchenaid and to be able to say I have one from the 100 year anniversary is incredible. It's beautiful and works well. Nice and quiet for when I need to whip something up while our toddler is sleeping.

This was delivered as promised. I’m an occasional baker and used this for cookies, yeast dough and cake. It’s fantastic! It performed each task with ease. I may have to adjust the height of the beater just a bit, but it’s amazing. It’a heavy and solid. I’m looking forward to trying the pasta accessories

This is a really great mixer for so many situations. Heavy.

Not gonna lie, bought this for the beautiful shade of red, but it makes cookie making sooo much more enjoyable and fast. Love the Queen of Hearts red. Bought the toaster too. Hoping to use the cheese grater attachment soon and the zoodle blade is on my wish list.

This is the first "real' mixer I have ever used and it is the most amazing machine! Easy to use, does the job well, and is a high quality product. I will never have to buy a mixer again! Plus, although I don't have any at the moment, I am super excited about the various types of attachments that can be purchased. Will be doing that in the future! Worth the 5 star rating!

Very sturdy and good motor speeds. Does a great job on light weight jobs as well as heavy dough. Love it.

This anniversary is so pretty. The red is true and the band of hearts make it special. Plan on using it for ever as I am 72 years old. This my second one. First was white and over thirty years old. Gave it away for the special red one!
