Title: Excellent Choice
Review: Got this as a gift. It states "mini" but it's not so small. What's nice is it's also not full sized. Besides looking great, it lives up to the KitchenAid name. Very good purchase.

Title: KitchenAid Artisan Mini 3.5 Qt Mixer
Review: + LOVE the smaller size option since I am not a serious (or oft) baker+ Easy to use and clean+ Smaller size allow me to store in my small kitchen and is a good size mixer for mixing food for me and my husband.+ This is my very first purchase of stand mixer (I am in my mid-50's) Always thought these were an extravagant kitchen buy, but now understand the cost justification since they are well made (high quality) and will probably last for many, many years.- I purchased this item because as I am getting older I find it harder to hand mix stuff (my hands and wrists get sore) and wanted the convenience of a good kitchen tool to do this for me.

Title: Works like my big one!
Review: I love my mini mixer. It’s light enough for me to move but it’s small enough to leave on my counter. It works just like my big one! It’s a power house! It’’s just right for the two of us.

Title: Smaller version for smaller jobs
Review: After using this smaller Stand Mixer, I realize a larger version is probably easier to manage. But this little guy does ok with smaller recipes. If you create a lot of baked goods, I recommend you go for a larger version. But this smaller machine is attractive, takes up less counter space, and does fine with one standard cake recipe for the family.

Title: You can't miss with this one
Review: I loved my Kitchen Aid stand mixer for 15 years. It held court on my counter since I bought it. But, after downsizing, (A LOT), I had to find a loving home for it, as I no longer had the counter or cupboard space. Then I got this beauty, and not only does it fit in my space, but it also fits in my downsized life. It does EVERYTHING its big sister does, but on a smaller scale. AND ALL of my attachments from bis sis fit. Kitchen Aid makes sure their products are built to last, and I look forward to all our new adventures and recipes. I repeat, you can't miss with this one. And the color is gorgeous. Just sayin. . . .

Title: Not the quality I expect from KitchenAid, but still a nice enough little machine
Review: KitchenAid used to be synonymous with top-quality kitchen equipment and was worth every (over-priced) penny. That's gone down the drain. This is a decent little mixer, but it just looks and feels cheap. My biggest quality complaints:* The silver strip with the brand name going around the tilt-head portion isn't actually attached. It's just tacked on somewhere on the back, clacks and moves around if you tap it, and good luck getting flour out of it if you get a puff of dry ingredients from the bowl.* They are apparently too cheap to include a spring on the beater head attachment anymore, but this model at least feels like they fit more securely than my other larger bowl-lift model.* The power switch knob thing is basically unusable if you're a lefty. Don't ask me how the heck they managed this, but it glides perfectly fine with almost no effort if I use my right hand and not at all (without difficulty and changing the angle my hand moves) with my left.Pros:* Unlike my 5-quart bowl lift (KV25G0X), this one does *not* sound like an airplane taking off with a rock stuck in the engine. It's much quieter, like my old classic tilt-head model that finally died a few years ago.* Unlike the bowl lift model, this one can perfectly handle creaming a single stick of butter to start a recipe, and the flex-edge beater is AWESOME at getting ingredients fully mixed. I just have to stop and scrape the sides (mostly the bottom) once or twice instead of multiple times. (Can you tell I'm not impressed with the bowl-lift one?)* It's just the right size for a single batch of cookie dough, casserole for a 9x9 pan, or 1-2 loaf bread recipe; perfect for an individual, smaller kitchen, or if you're like me, for smaller batches that your bigger mixer can't handle. (I don't typically do yeast dough so that's 1-2 loaves of pumpkin or banana bread.)In addition to the quality issues above, my biggest pet peeve is the design of the flex head beater in regards to being able to clean it thoroughly. There are defined, poorly-smoothed seams where the rubber portion is sealed over the metal (?) beater. They're a pain to clean and require taking a scrubbing brush to them to ensure all the batter is gone. I'm kind of okay with that in tradeoff for how well they mix, though, and they're still easier to clean than any of the blades in my food processor. :)I almost gave up on KitchenAid after my poor experience with the bowl-lift mixer, but I'm glad I gave this one a try. I certainly wouldn't buy it except on sale, though. There's no way I would pay the $330-$380 it's currently listing for.

Review: Even as a "mini" this really isn't that small. You get a "mini" food processor and it might have a capacity of 3.5 cups, which really isn't much--but 3.5 quarts is not nothing, that's big enough for multiple loafs of bread dough, or dozens of cookies or muffins.Lately I've been using it to make a ball of pizza dough big enough for one ~13 inch pizza, and it just makes it so incredibly fast and easy. Best part is that it just slides right off the dough hook attachment after its done kneading, there's barely anything to clean up.
