Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Thirty percent more powerful than KitchenAid's previous 5-quart stand mixers, this remanufactured professional model efficiently tackles heavy loads with its 450-watt motor, direct-drive all-steel gear transmission, and bowl-lift lever. The latter function is particularly convenient, as it effortlessly raises heavy ingredients up to the beater to make mixing more efficient. In addition, the mixer is constructed of durable die-cast metal, ensuring long-lasting use, and comes in an attractive onyx black color that complements both modern and classic kitchens.
With a choice of 10 speeds and three attachments--flat beater, spiral dough hook, and stainless-steel wire whip--the mixer handles everything from egg whites to meat loaf to pizza dough. Rather than rotating the bowl, KitchenAid stand mixers feature a fixed bowl with a unique mixing action: the beater spins clockwise while the shaft spins counterclockwise, thus projecting the beater to 67 different points inside the 5-quart stainless-steel bowl. In deference to its power, the Soft-Start feature prevents splashing and flour clouds by gearing up to each speed gradually. Once started, the electronic speed sensor kicks in to maintain a constant speed even when mixing the thickest batter.
The bowl also sports a handle and two pins that hook into the lifting mechanism, which itself consists of a solid metal arm the same color as the mixer and a stainless-steel lever. A hinged attachment hub makes changing attachments easy. For safety, the mixer shuts down if an object obstructs the mixing process or if overloading occurs. The bowl, beater, and dough hook are dishwasher-safe. Assembled in Ohio, the mixer measures 11-1/4 by 16-1/2 by 14-3/5 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a 90-day warranty.

Maybe I haven't gotten the hang of it,

This review is from: Factory-Reconditioned KitchenAid RKV25GOXOB Professional 5 Plus 5-Quart Stand Mixer, Onyx Black (Kitchen)
For those of you wondering whether you should get the 5 quart or 6 quart size, this machine is enormous. I'm still getting use to it, learning how to make batches of batter for a single cake or whip one egg. The stuff sits waaay down on the bottom of this huge bowl. It is very powerful, so much so that if you don't use a splatter shield, your ingredients will end up covering your kitchen. Also, if your recipe calls for mixing two types of ingredients (e.g., mix flour-baking powder-salt and oil-sugar-eggs), you need two bowls. I bought an extra bowl and a splatter shield. Most receintly, I bought the ice cream maker attachment, but I haven't tried it yet.
There is almost no price variability on these KA stand mixers. If they go "on sale", it's for $20 off. Whooo Hoooo on a $300-$500 machine. I bought a reconditioned one, and so far I think it works ok. They are heavy and take up a lot of room, so plan carefully where you are going to use and store it.

Great Machine!,

This review is from: Factory-Reconditioned KitchenAid RKV25GOXOB Professional 5 Plus 5-Quart Stand Mixer, Onyx Black (Kitchen)
Got it when it when on sale, but would have paid more for it. This is a much nicer product than an Artisan and has all the benefits of a Pro 6 without the cost. All the professional models come with all-metal gears, unlike the more popular Artisan or cheaper Classic. The bowl lift model is different than the tilt head most are used to, but I think it is great; you don't have to worry about the tilt head clearing a cabinet either. Yes it's both heavy and loud, but it's a high quality product and I don't feel that those negatives would be worth getting a different model. Also, it says under the "What's in the box" only the flat-head beater, but mine also came with the wire whip and the spiral dough hook. Would never know this is refurbished, a great savings in my opinion.

Totally awesome mixer!,

Wow, we absolutely love this mixer! We have used it for pizza, bread dough, pancake/waffle batter, plus many other things. It handles anything we throw at it. And I love the fact that because the bowl itself doesn't move, it is very firmly held in place. Have not had any problems at all with this mixer, and have had it now for almost a year. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone else looking for a mixer.
