KitchenAid Deluxe 4.5 Quart Tilt-Head Stand Mixer – Pistachio

What we found

This is a KitchenAid Deluxe series countertop stand mixer, model KSM97, in the pistachio color, with a 4.5-quart stainless steel mixing bowl that has a side handle. It uses the tilt-head design, so the motor head pivots back for adding ingredients or swapping tools and locks down while mixing, and it runs on 10 speeds from stir up to whipping. It plugs into a standard household outlet and sits on the counter, taking up roughly 9 inches of width and 11 inches of depth, standing about 14 inches tall with the head down and about 17 inches with the head tilted up, so measure any overhead cabinet before buying. It comes with the flat beater, dough hook and six-wire whip, and the front hub accepts KitchenAid's attachments such as pasta rollers and food grinders, which are sold separately. It suits a home baker who wants a mid-size mixer for cookie doughs, bread, and whipped batches without the footprint of a bowl-lift model.
