I have the gray 6 cup - I LOVE IT!!!!
Glad i got the gray over the stainless, you dont see any smudges or dirt
I have to admit, when wever I go to a store that carries many colors, I am drooling before my daughter physically pulls me away from the display. I just have to touch them. I'm now getting all of the matching utensils, the hand mixer, the blender, and everything. I need them all to match!
I have the 6 qrt brushed chrome one - my daugher and sister gave it to me for my birthday a couple of years ago. I was clueless to the KA reputation etc.
Once I used it was enough to get me hooked on it. Now I use it for everything, makes my life a lot easier.
Mine...Stainless steel Professional HD. I LOVE IT.Only a 5 Quart wish it were 6! I wanted a 3rd puppy but DH bought me this instead. So I named my Kitchen aid "Ben" (what I was going to name the puppy). I don't need to train this Ben
Mine is Pistachio. I had a REALLY hard time deciding on a color. I only wish they had different color plates so you could change the color every now and then...
I have a white 20 year old 4 qrt. I would love a brushed nickle one to match my kitchen, but it was free from a friend who was going to throw it out. Can't cook without it!
Hi everyone: I have the 6qt professional lift in the sunshine color yellow. Was getting discontinued and couldn't pass it up. A whole lot cheaper like $100 cheaper when I bought it. I love, love, love, my mixer. Vicki0052.
Mine is white, but boy would I like to a red one. Maybe the copper one, maybe just a bigger one to go with my white one.
I have the metallic chrome. It was either that or pink and I thought that the chrome would go with more. All of the other colors were more expensive and I couldn't see paying more for the same exact thing, but in a different color.
I have an empire red Pro 5. Got it refurb from amazon for 174.99 I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!
I have the Nickel Pearl 6qt Pro. I wanted the Martha Green but it was $150 more. I also couldn't see paying that much more for just the color. I love the Nickel Peral it goes with everything in my kitchen.
I have the Cobalt Blue Professional 500. My sweetie bought it for me 2 years ago for my Birthday
I use it for everything. Best turkey day mashed taters!
Classic White - 15 years old from first hubbie. Artisan Red - from second hubbie. Don't think I'll go for a third hubbie, but a third KA wouldn't be so bad. Love them both - KA's. Oh, and second hubbie too.
I just got a black one for my birthday. My hubbie bought it for me after my hand held blew up while I was making a cake for a friend. I had to mix a whole batch of BC by hand. I think he felt sorry for me. He came in the kitchen and said "What would you rather have, a new CD player in the van or one of those "High-Dollar" mixers?"
My husband is a tightwad, even when It comes to his toys. So for him to buy this for me, was really cool. He got me the 4 1/2 qt artisian w/ a handle on the bowl. Gotta love him!
Lemondrop--
Can you use your 6 quart for normal everyday batch sizes--like a 2 person household size? Is it too big to be efficient? Or does it really work as well on the small stuff as on the big stuff?
Thanks!
I use it for smaller stuff too I have a red 6qt.. and it is just me and my hubby
White, 5 qt artisian w/ a handle on the bowl--2005 Christmas gift from my family. LOVE IT!!!
My dh got me mine for Christmas 4yrs ago, Black, because I said when we got a house I was doing the kitchen with black appliances. I keep trying to convince him that I need a new one - I really want a purple one to match my company colors. (That same christmas my dad got my mom one too - Black, but mine is the 5 1/2 qt and her's is only the 5qt. HA HA HA - Mine's bigger!!! But I use mine alot more.)
I keep trying to convince dh to paint it that metallic paint - you know, the kind that changes colors in different lights) He just keeps laughing at me
I don't know if I could live without my mixer (I also love the handheld kitchenaid mixer - another gift from dh - I'm sensing a theme here )

I was watching Alton Brown the other day on the Food channel and he had racing flames on the side of his KA. I immediately told my husband I wanted flames on mine! It was too cool!
My new one is white...and my old one that my daughter took....lol...was creme color..
I have the onyx black Artisan and I LOVE it! DH bought it for me for mother's day...(I think to prepare me for the motorcycle he ordered for himself for Father's Day...)
I also saw Alton's black one with flames - I'm going to paint mine too when I muster the courage! It was very cool.

Thanks Alicia and CJ!
I have always wondered if the 6 qt is just too big for the little projects, but it doesn't sound like it!
My KA is Licorice black. I have the 6 qt Professional 600. It is wonderful. I use it on small jobs and it does a great job.

I just bought myself the purple Artisan mixer a few months ago..I just love it! I don't know how I ever lived without one. Until I got it, I had been doing all my mixing by hand
My little one was a gift - it's almond. My big one (Pro 6) is a pearly gray. It was on sale. If I had my druthers, I'd probably have bought a red one. What I REALLY want is one of those flaming ones like Alton Brown has!
