re: Mixer Recommendation

All of the Kitchen Aid mixers are good machines. Size is your preference. If you using it for home cooking, you do not need the biggest machine. We have the non-tilt head machine and it works great. Yes it is heavy (that is a good thing) but the wife can pick it up. We do not keep it on the counter-top (we store it in a cabinet in the laundry room).
Not important to this discussion. We also have a hand held Cuisineart mixer for making muffins, brownies and cake mixes, Bla-Bla-Bla.

The lift bowl is much much better than the Tilt head.
All are good, just a better design.

Arghh that's too cheap. I just fixed an Artisan for $125. Pros need to be $300.
People won't want to fix them.
The best are the commercial ones. All in one motor and transmission, just a step down from a Hobart.

I have two artisans, and two professionals in pieces right now. I could show side by side motor and mech pictures. The only cool thing about the artisan ..Its the original design. I can pull a 1976 down and it looks like a 2018 artisan, yet back then they were made by Hobart not Whirlpool.
They have the same motor design (two piece), the sane exact mechanisms, and the brush cover screws on the side. The 6qt has a one piece motor, a control board for speed regulation and a motor sensor, while the artisan uses a mechanical governor and a simple contact switch set up for speed control.
I'm one of the only people who fix them in the state.
I know a good bit.

Is it a matter of lift/tilt mechanism durability, or motor function/durability? I saw on ATK that the tilt head on the classic gave out in testing while the Pro Line 7 qt was still going strong.

Do you service Hobarts?

The lift head users a mylar worm gear.
The 6qt uses a brass alloy. Its supposed to break first, but I've never been s fan of the plastic gear.

I have a nearly new artisan that seems to have stripped the planetary gears and have replaced it with the pro but would not mind getting it repaired or repairing myself and giving to one of my kids.
Large batches of divinity killed the artisan pretty damn quickly.
On a scale of 1 (changing a dryer belt) to 10 (rebuilding an automatic transmission) how difficult is it?
