Is the KitchenAid Classic mixer worth it?
So, are KitchenAid mixers worth it? The short answer is yes. KitchenAid mixers are worth it because they do so much more than mix; they shred, grind, whip, knead, and mash. With the plethora of attachments available, you can use them to make pasta, mix ice cream, stuff sausages, juice fruits and vegetables, and more.

Why does my KitchenAid mixer smell like its burning?
If a KitchenAid Mixer smells like it is burning and is overheating, then it will need to be shut down. A whisk, dough hook or other component attached to the mixer incorrectly can cause the motor to work harder or cause the machine to mix off-kilter.
