This worked great for redoing the shower/bathtub of my kid's bathroom. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxfiuHoZJo3bgdVPFRxQ-iqPpfbEHl2cYt I didn't like the guide, so I took it off. I just used a fine tipped sharpie on the tile and followed that line. It does make a wet mess, and once I started looking like I wet myself I started wearing a towel and apron while cutting. The blade it came with worked great until we wore it out. It was better than the replacement one we bought. I tried looking for just their blade, but failed. Not really for larger tiles unless you stack stuff on either side to support the tiles. Anyway, would definitley buy again.
I just purchased a this mixer, refurbished, in this color, direct from Kitchenaid for under $200 American. It just arrived. I can't wait to use it. i had to purchase the "dry mix chimney" (spashguard) separately though. This color, "passion Red" was the only one avaiable at this price, and the warranty is only 6 months for refurbished.
According to Kitchenaid the Pro 600 is produced with all metal gears. This is likely the source for the "whine" you are hearing at high speeds. You can go with reinforced nylon to quiet it down but could potentially loose some power and it will wear much quicker, especially under heavier loading.
Wow! Thanks about the noise issue you mentioned. I have hyperacusis which makes so many sounds louder and more unbearable. That would drive me insane! I'll pass on this!
I have a KitchenAid (K5) that I bought in the late 1980s. Julia Child used that model. It still works but it needs re-greasing, so I have to get it serviced. As for the motor being in the way, I use a scoop to add my dry ingredients. It's easy to slide the scoop into the side of the bowl. I know what you mean about the sound. It seems to pertain to that model. The 7 quart Pro Line is quieter. Artisan 5 quart is the older sound, so it's not high pitched like yours. Good video, thanks.
The scoop! Yes, that's a good idea. I hate dirtying more dishes so I prefer to use what I've already used to (we don't have a dishwasher at the moment 😢) - but that's a good work around. Appreciate the comment though! I had a comment earlier from a person who uses their mixer to shred chicken etc, have you ever tried that? It's on my list of things to do! 😁
@@TheCultureofCookery No, I've never used the mixer to shred chicken, but I've seen where other people do it. I think the meat has to still be warm or hot when it's done. The paddle is used, not the wire whisk. Apparently, it takes only seconds to do it. Yes, a scoop is terrific for adding ingredients to the bowl. And don't forget to have your mixer on a low speed when adding flour, so you won't get a cloud of flour to clean up.
Just got one of these as an incredibly generous Christmas gift from my mom. For her, owning your own KitchenAid is like a right of passage. It's all she ever wanted when her and my dad were first married. I've always been more if a cook than a baker, but its hard to resist the urge to try it out when you're stairing down this machine. I've only tried bread and pizza dough so far, and it turned out great. Mom sent me the recipes from the book she used when I was little. I'm really intrigued by the spatula paddle that came with mine, might improve the mixing experience you had. I'm excited to find out.
Hi Ajay, I bought this Kitchenaid and used a couple times. All the hooks were OK, except the spiral hook (dough hook), it did not touch the bottom of the bowl, so the dough didn't move. Please tell me what to do about it. Thank you.
High Lynn, as far as I know the hook shouldn’t touch the bottom of the bowl? It would scratch it. I might suggest increasing the amount of whatever your making that way the attachments can reach?
I have a 5qt professional from 1998 that is 350 watt and a 6qt professional from 2017 that is 575 watt. Bought both used (always buy these things used, people buy them and never use them!) both are both lift because I like the extra stability when mixing heavy items. I purchased the bigger newer one because it was a pretty blue steel color and I grind a lot of meat, although after using it for a bit I don't really think I needed it. I agree that the whine it makes is very annoying. I thought something was wrong with the mixer because the older one I have doesn't sound like that.
That's really interesting! You think the mixer with more Wattage would be less noisy? Yeah! I want to get a meat attachment for my Assistent, but they are pricey!
I have this one but I also have a 4.5 qt Tilt Head model. I used to bake with my grandmother as a child and she had a KitchenAid hand mixer. We couldn’t afford the big stand mixer at that time. She has a 3rd hand mixer by KitchenAid now. Me, since I baked and cooked for a while, and even getting into bread making, I have 2 stand mixers and I love them. I even shredded chicken in mines one time.
I got a KitchenAid mixer 37 years ago and it’s still working. I have the model that you’re showing it didn’t come with the guard. The problem I’m having and I haven’t used it but three or four times pushing the bowl in the back I have to stand on the ladder and push very very HARD. I’m afraid it’s going to break and then I’ll be out a KitchenAid mixer. I cannot afford to get another one as I’m a senior citizen on fixed income. Any ideas what I can do?
I absolutely love my 6 quart bowl lift stand mixer! I’ve kind of gotten used to the awkwardness of adding dry ingredients or maneuvering my spatula around the attachment to me it’s not a big deal as far as the sound I rarely have it set to 10 unless I’m whipping something and in that case it takes no time to whip so again it really doesn’t bother me. I have experienced the 7 quart professional bowl lift model and the sound is so much more pleasant, it is so quiet in comparison! Great video, but how can you confuse a KitchenAid with a Cuisinart ?!
Thanks for the feedback, Susanne! You're right, especially since KitchenAid doesn't even make a mixer at this level. It must have been that I had made Cuisinart review earlier that day 😬
You have the Costco version which is called Professional. It’s actually the pro 610, not pro 600. The bowl on the 600 has the shiny finish on the outside and isn’t matte and they have different watts (590 vs 575) and come with different wire whisks. The Costco comes with the 11 wire whisk and the professional 600 sold by KA comes with the 6 wire whisk.
@@TheCultureofCookery yes, kitchenaid will tell you it’s just a regular 600 sold by Costco with a little extra horse power to distinguish it from the one sold by kitchenaid, but do your research. You will find that there are a couple of other versions in the 600 series.
@@vanitylaviscount3097 hey there! Did you buy the Costco one? I’m looking for a mixer and I’m torn between getting the Costco one and getting the deal in the online store. Which would be best? Thanks in advance
@@hanniacorro6083 I ended up getting a refurbished one from KitchenAid. I got lucky and scored an 11-wire whisk with it. Kitchenaid told me that the 610 is the 600 (I'm guessing it's in the series) but there is a distinction between the two when you google.
Hi. Thanks for your thoughts. I'm looking for a stand mixer and I'm definitely looking at Kitchen Aid. I don't want the top of the line most expensive. I'm a home baker and bake frequently. Can you give me some thoughts as to which style would be good for a "I've come back to baking baker!!". 😆 Thank you so much.
If you bake frequently, I'd honestly give the Ankarsrum Assistent Mixer a look. I did like the KitchenAid for it's classic style and relative ease of use, but my everyday mixer has been the Assistent. I love how the open bowl makes it really easy to add to the mix! It is a tad pricier, but the build quality is definitely impressive. I'm a fan of buying once and not having to buy again. Maybe think of it as an investment??
@@TheCultureofCookery Thanks so much I've decided upon Cuisinart SM50 Precision Master. I saw it in action and was really impressed. I'm waiting anxiously to receive it!
How long have you had yours? This is actually one that I had borrowed from a friend who had theirs for a couple of months. Maybe unlike a fine wine, KitchenAid's don't age gracefully??
Glad it could be entertaining! Will definitely look into it! I'll have to see if I can borrow one off friends haha. They're too expensive to buy on their own 😭
I just got one and it makes a weird sound like a scraping sound in the motor section itself. I ran it without the attachments to see where the sound was coming from. Is that normal?
I think as far as pasta rollers this does a good job. I'd also suggest the Marcato Atlas. Just about the same price as the pasta roller function, but will also last a lifetime. It's not dependent on your machine, and also makes a ASMR-worthy sound when using the crank.
I really love this review as I'm lookin for a stand mixer for me and mine's apartment. I bake and cook from scratch a TON, so I'm kinda stuck on KitchenAid for the ease of finding versatile attachments (like for instance a meat grinder and sausage stuffer). This def looks like a step up from the Artisan, even though I'm not too sold on how a bowl lift is better than the tilt head.
Glad you got something out of it, Taylor! Thanks for leaving a comment! Ankasrum Assistent does have those attachments as well, though I think you'd have to buy them online and they do seem a little bit on the pricier side? That being said, I've really loved mine and it's been my mixer of choice 👍🏽
depending on your apartment space, check out the DC motor Artisan Mini or the Proline 7 qt and Commerical 8 qt. Way nicer than the Artisan. Handles large dough much better than a tilt head.
If the power unit on a tilt head and a bowl lift mixer are the same, there is no difference in that regard. The difference between the two is strength. The strength issue comes into play under heavy duty use like mixing and kneading stiff doughs. For light duty tasks they perform essentially the same way.
Apartment living here. Do you think this would disturb my neighbors? You mentioned that it's quite loud at speeds. Are there a lot of vibrations at regular to mid speeds? I asked this since I am of the second floor and would not like to disturb my neighbors.
I suppose it really depends how thin your walls are? I wouldn’t think that a mixer sound would go through walls, but it’s definitely annoying enough to disrupt those in a room.
4:30 You've asked if there is a kitchen mixer we're looking at. Have you used the Kenwood Titanium Chef? They're available at Costco (the 7 quart model) for a much better price than from Amazon. People say they are stronger than the KitchenAids. My aunt had one and loved it. Thanks.
@@TheCultureofCookery Yes, KitchenAid rules the North American mixer market. I would love to get a Kenwood Titanium one day, except: 1) there are no attachments available (not even on the Kenwood Canada site); 2) if it needs servicing, then what? Where to get it fixed, and can they get parts?
Did you mean the customizable bowls? I think it shouldn't be a problem! They seem to have the same measurements and dimensions on line. That being said, I've actually never seen anyone with the customized bowls! Let me know if you get one, I'd be interested to know if it works! 🤔
But actually…it was brutal 😂 I’m actually in the process of making another video on a much lesser known mixer, the Assistant. It’s a great alternative and generally less noisy!
@TheCultureofCookery I ended up choosing the "Empire Red." I used it a couple times. Not at all crazy about the bowl lift to move the attachments closer. The screw does absolutely nothing. It turns a half turn and no bowl movement. It got very hot on a double Brioche bread mixing. So hot that I took the cover off to expose the motor and gears!
It makes wonderful fluffy mashed potatoes and cauliflower mash. Excellent cookie dough excellent Whipped cream excellent bread dough excellent over all hands free reliable work horse dependable mixer. A necessary addition to any kitchen that cooks. My Thoughts
Yes! My friend uses his hand blender all the time for mashed potatoes, makes sense that it would work in the KitchenAid as well. Definitely a good machine!
That's a good question. If you don't want to go the commercial route, I would suggest the Ankarsrum. It's a workhorse, well built and has a bigger capacity than the KitchenAid
My Kitchen Aid blade scrapes the sides of my metal bowl. For example: when I whipped up some heavy wiping cream for a whipped cream topping. It left metal pieces in my food. How do I fix this?
Ohhh that's weird. To be perfectly honest, I'm not too sure what would be happening there, Chalanda. The only thing I can think of is the mechanism that lifts the bowl is lifting it too high. Maybe, bring it into a local repair shop and see what they can do or try to lift it part way? Sorry I couldn't be of more help!
Look here for how to adjust the beater to bowl clearance. The adjustment for both the tilt head and bowl lift models are covered in the video: producthelp.kitchenaid.com/Countertop_Appliances/Stand_Mixers/Product_Info/Stand_Mixer_Videos/VIDEO%3A__Adjusting_the_Beater_to_Bowl_Clearance_(Dime_Test)
The professional series has an ac motor. That's why it is so loud. The classic and artisan series have dc motors, are much quieter. The proline and commercial series have dc motors and planetary gearboxes, they are the quietest.
Noticed that you had the dough attachment going pretty fast. What setting did you have it on? I've been having trouble with mine not actually kneading dough less than 5 or 6 cups of flour
Yea, so whenever I'm doing doughs on this machine I start off low and then work my way to high speed. Oh that's odd! I haven't noticed any problems with the small amounts? Good to know though!
If you're kneading dough for bread you should never go pass 2. A very common mistake people do is not reading the instructions and go full throttle. This will wreak havoc on the gears, which I think is what's happening to this guy's machine, judging by the screeching sound, it seems he's already damaged the worm and/or the gear that follows the worm. Sources: I am good at fixing stuff and I have fixed a couple of mixers, and I always read the manuals !
"Mixers in that approximate bowl capacity range not covered". Please review a Hobart N50 and a Globe SP8. The Globe SP8 costs more than the KitchenAid PRO 600 but, it is a much better/stronger/longer lasting mixer. The Hobart N50 costs a lot more, but is built to industrial standards. Hobart N50s more than 50 years old still run like new machines. KitchenAid mixers built by Hobart, prior to 1986, were also well made mixers. When Whirlpool purchased KitchenAid, they began a program of redesigning many of the internal metal parts and replacing them with cheap plastic junk. The reliable speed control mechanisms, in the Hobart built KitchenAid mixers, were replaced with electronic speed control circuits which often fail.
It definitely is a tough decision to make, especially since it is such a financial investment. That being said, we went with the Ankarsrum Assistent and haven’t regretted it 😁
Hello people, I just want to make a comment: RTFM (Read The F&$#ng Manual!) I am making this suggestion because I have helped some people fix their mixers because they go full speed when making bread dough or other kneading and think going fast is the way. Wrong. Kneading is hard so your mixer needs to do it on speeds 1 or 2 or you will end up shredding the gears. In my experience, the noice this guy's machine is doing is telling there is already damage to them.
There is Glenn th-cam.com/video/lQoC6UvQTPI/w-d-xo.html who says: as a pro, just always have a spare Kitchenaid Pro of the same color so you can continue filming.
@@kmarcellina KitchenAid, I think they have a lot more attachments that are easily available too. Also, depending on how much (and for how many people you'd cook, I'd recommend looking into one with bigger bowls. I have a 6qt. bowl lift model, that fits great under the cabinets, unlike the tilt-head models that need space above to tilt the head up.
I'm sorry did he say it's been around since the 1980s?🤣 The reason kitchenaid itunade mixers are are getting harder and more expensive to find defined is because although although they are assembled in Ohio many of The internal parts are actually Lee sourced from China and we all know what a great job great job this administration is doing when it comes to trade. Let's go Brandon!
What China/USA trade policy has has the Biden administration put into place that makes any difference in where KitchenAid sources their parts??? Be specific, Kip. I'm sure you aren't just regurgitating some bs you saw on fb, because you aren't a sheep, right??
Wait wait did Bruno Mars hbars here just refer to this as the Is "cuisinart Pro 600"?? OMG blasphemy!
Bruno Mars? Niiiiiiiice 😎. Yeah my bad, definitely a misspeak and I was too lazy to fix it afterwards haha

Great review! Kitchenaid has been for over a hundred years! ( 1919) I’ve had mine for 30 years and it still works!✊🏿
Wow! Vintage! Definitely a great kitchen tool for sure! Ever tried the Ankarsrum?
I've had mine since 1989, almost 33 years now and it still works like the day I got it. I probably should have it re-greased, though.
They don't make them that way anymore... nothing is made that way anymore
Although I love my KitchenAid Stand Mixers, I wish they still had the same quality as your vintage 30 y.o. one and still HOBART MADE!
According to Kitchenaid the Pro 600 is produced with all metal gears. This is likely the source for the "whine" you are hearing at high speeds. You can go with reinforced nylon to quiet it down but could potentially loose some power and it will wear much quicker, especially under heavier loading.
Wow! Packed with awesome info, Gary! Thanks for sharing with the community!

by the way,some 7 quart ones use a dc motor that is silent even on max speed! they are much more pricey but worth the ear protection.
Ohhh good to know!
"It made my baby cry" 😂
I was definitely looking at the pro 600 but I hear the ones with the DC motors are much quieter but also cost like 700+ 😩
But actually…it was brutal 😂
I’m actually in the process of making another video on a much lesser known mixer, the Assistant. It’s a great alternative and generally less noisy!
@@TheCultureofCookery looking forward to seeing it! 🙌
Finding the Profesional 600 in Candy Apple Red is quite tough to find. Can anyone point me in the right direction as to where to find one?
I actually borrowed this one from a friend. I think they may have gotten it at Costco?
@TheCultureofCookery I ended up choosing the "Empire Red." I used it a couple times. Not at all crazy about the bowl lift to move the attachments closer. The screw does absolutely nothing. It turns a half turn and no bowl movement. It got very hot on a double Brioche bread mixing. So hot that I took the cover off to expose the motor and gears!
It makes wonderful fluffy mashed potatoes and cauliflower mash. Excellent cookie dough excellent Whipped cream excellent bread dough excellent over all hands free reliable work horse dependable mixer. A necessary addition to any kitchen that cooks. My
Thoughts
Yes! My friend uses his hand blender all the time for mashed potatoes, makes sense that it would work in the KitchenAid as well. Definitely a good machine!
Which one do you recommend for a starting bakery at home business, thank for your videos!
That's a good question. If you don't want to go the commercial route, I would suggest the Ankarsrum. It's a workhorse, well built and has a bigger capacity than the KitchenAid
You’re right, unlike the artisan type. This type is so noisy. My husband often complains about the noise.
My Kitchen Aid blade scrapes the sides of my metal bowl. For example: when I whipped up some heavy wiping cream for a whipped cream topping. It left metal pieces in my food. How do I fix this?
Ohhh that's weird. To be perfectly honest, I'm not too sure what would be happening there, Chalanda. The only thing I can think of is the mechanism that lifts the bowl is lifting it too high. Maybe, bring it into a local repair shop and see what they can do or try to lift it part way? Sorry I couldn't be of more help!
Look here for how to adjust the beater to bowl clearance. The adjustment for both the tilt head and bowl lift models are covered in the video: producthelp.kitchenaid.com/Countertop_Appliances/Stand_Mixers/Product_Info/Stand_Mixer_Videos/VIDEO%3A__Adjusting_the_Beater_to_Bowl_Clearance_(Dime_Test)
The professional series has an ac motor. That's why it is so loud. The classic and artisan series have dc motors, are much quieter. The proline and commercial series have dc motors and planetary gearboxes, they are the quietest.
Ohhh good to know, @kraftzion! Thanks for sharing and helping all our knowledge!
He just said “Cuisinart 600” 😂🤣 onto the next video….

Noticed that you had the dough attachment going pretty fast. What setting did you have it on? I've been having trouble with mine not actually kneading dough less than 5 or 6 cups of flour
Yea, so whenever I'm doing doughs on this machine I start off low and then work my way to high speed. Oh that's odd! I haven't noticed any problems with the small amounts? Good to know though!
If you're kneading dough for bread you should never go pass 2. A very common mistake people do is not reading the instructions and go full throttle. This will wreak havoc on the gears, which I think is what's happening to this guy's machine, judging by the screeching sound, it seems he's already damaged the worm and/or the gear that follows the worm. Sources: I am good at fixing stuff and I have fixed a couple of mixers, and I always read the manuals !
@@MrMackanno yeah. Thats what i was thinking. I read the instructions and it clearly says not to go pass 2 when doing the doughs.
Mine is working fine and i love it 😍 wish i could afford the 8 qts 😂😂😂

"Mixers in that approximate bowl capacity range not covered". Please review a Hobart N50 and a Globe SP8. The Globe SP8 costs more than the KitchenAid PRO 600 but, it is a much better/stronger/longer lasting mixer. The Hobart N50 costs a lot more, but is built to industrial standards. Hobart N50s more than 50 years old still run like new machines. KitchenAid mixers built by Hobart, prior to 1986, were also well made mixers. When Whirlpool purchased KitchenAid, they began a program of redesigning many of the internal metal parts and replacing them with cheap plastic junk. The reliable speed control mechanisms, in the Hobart built KitchenAid mixers, were replaced with electronic speed control circuits which often fail.
Agreed. Some components have definitely changed!
Nice one thanks
Glad it could be of help!
I still can’t decide
It definitely is a tough decision to make, especially since it is such a financial investment. That being said, we went with the Ankarsrum Assistent and haven’t regretted it 😁
Hello people, I just want to make a comment: RTFM (Read The F&$#ng Manual!) I am making this suggestion because I have helped some people fix their mixers because they go full speed when making bread dough or other kneading and think going fast is the way. Wrong. Kneading is hard so your mixer needs to do it on speeds 1 or 2 or you will end up shredding the gears. In my experience, the noice this guy's machine is doing is telling there is already damage to them.
That's a great idea, @MrMackanno! You should make a video to showcase your expertise! I'd watch it 👍🏽
There is Glenn th-cam.com/video/lQoC6UvQTPI/w-d-xo.html who says: as a pro, just always have a spare Kitchenaid Pro of the same color so you can continue filming.
If you could only pick one, which one you are going to pick: Kitchenaid Artisan or Ankasrum? Thanks.
@@kmarcellina KitchenAid, I think they have a lot more attachments that are easily available too. Also, depending on how much (and for how many people you'd cook, I'd recommend looking into one with bigger bowls. I have a 6qt. bowl lift model, that fits great under the cabinets, unlike the tilt-head models that need space above to tilt the head up.
Can u try a Zuccu mixer? Very inexpensive but it seemed to do bread quite nicely.
Thanks for the suggestion Catherine! I've actually never heard of that brand! Do you know where they would sell it?
lol i have never seen the pro mixer look so small next to someone
Would this be one of those comments where it's like 😤💪🏽 or 😫👀? haha
⚡️QUESTION OF THE DAY: Do you have a stand mixer at all? If so, what brand did you end up going with?
I have the one you’re showing and though I rarely use it, I love it! Mine also makes that loud pitched sound sometimes. 😬
@goinghomesomeday1 Oh interesting! Never tried the Kenwood Chef, might need to get my hands on one of those...
@@shericarthan1864 Yeah, not the biggest of fans of how loud it can get, but it is a classic for a reason 🤷🏻
Yes, I have the KitchenAid KSM5 from the late 1980s, still going strong. Would love to try a Kenwood Titanium, though.
Cuisinart ???T?T
🤫
I'm sorry did he say it's been around since the 1980s?🤣 The reason kitchenaid itunade mixers are are getting harder and more expensive to find defined is because although although they are assembled in Ohio many of The internal parts are actually Lee sourced from China and we all know what a great job great job this administration is doing when it comes to trade. Let's go Brandon!
What China/USA trade policy has has the Biden administration put into place that makes any difference in where KitchenAid sources their parts??? Be specific, Kip. I'm sure you aren't just regurgitating some bs you saw on fb, because you aren't a sheep, right??
Was it the terrifs that the Brandon administration slapped into place that caused prices to go up?
@@DMac-gh7cy this guy is just a moron, don’t listen to him.
Don't waste your time here. Nothing useful at all.
Dude if you don't even know what brand you're using how can I trust your review??? Thumbs down!!
Don't trust me...😏
You lost me at Cuisinart
🤫 haha
just got a 600 for refurbished for $202 after tax on cuisinart’s website right now, should be worth it!
Ohhhh nicely done! What a great price too! Enjoy it!
You called it a Cuisinart at the start.
🤫😬😅
