KitchenAid Artisan 5KSM175PS
The icon — a beautifully built tilt-head mixer with a huge attachment ecosystem for every job
Key characteristics
Highlights
- ✓ 4.8L stainless bowl handles most home baking batches
- ✓ Tilt-head design for easy bowl and beater access
- ✓ Power hub drives dozens of attachments (grinder, pasta, more)
- ✓ Die-cast metal body in a huge colour range
Our take
The Artisan earns its status: it's superbly built, mixes and whips reliably, and the power-hub attachment ecosystem turns it into a pasta maker, grinder or spiraliser. It's not the strongest for big bread doughs and it costs a premium, but as an all-round mixer you'll keep for decades it's the one to beat.
