One of the best parts of the holidays, outside of the festivities, gifts and food, is the long list of deals you can find on just about anything — tech, cookware, skin care, you name it. As someone who regularly covers appliances, one product I think every home needs around the holidays is a KitchenAid stand mixer, which I found on sale at Amazon right now for 30% off, putting it at its lowest price in six months. The appliance makes baking and prep easier and faster, plus, it has compatible attachments that make it super versatile.
Deal of the Day
I love a lot of things about the KitchenAid stand mixer, but what I love most is how much it speeds up the baking and prep process. It significantly reduces the amount of time you’d usually spend mixing batters and doughs by hand or with an electric hand mixer, plus, you don’t end up with a sore bicep at the end. It also helps make your finished product come out as best as possible. This mixer has 10 speed settings and comes with multiple attachments, including a dough hook, wire whisk, paddle and a pouring shield, which prevents powdery foods, like flour and confectioner’s sugar, from flying everywhere when you add it to the 5-quart, stainless steel handled bowl.
As its name implies, the top of the mixer tilts back, making it easier to add ingredients in between mixes. Plus, the bowl, dough hook and paddle attachment are all dishwasher safe, according to the brand. It comes with a one-year limited warranty and works with other separately sold attachments, including a pasta maker, ice cream maker, vegetable spiralizer and more.
