Q: Why is there a prop 65? What part is the dangerous part on this product.

submitted by Betz - 2 years ago

  • A: All power cords have insulation that contains chemicals on the Prop 65 list, so you might want to wash your hands after handling the cord and plug before continuing your cooking. If you chew on a power cord, consuming chemicals will be less of a problem than the electricity inside the cord. I don't know why the manufacturer said "the power cord could come in contact with something hazardous" because Prop 65 is about chemicals, not overall product safety. Still, it's good not to damage the cord with anything hot or sharp, or with solvents.

    submitted byKathryn - 1 year ago

  • A: Hi Betz, Proposition 65 was enacted in 1986 in the State of California. It requires an updated list once a year of potentially harmful materials. Whirlpool/KitchenAid meets or exceeds all standards for safe materials, but our products do have cords, which causes them to make the list. Any time you have a cord, there is the potential for it to come in contact with something hazardous.

    Bowl does not stay attached to the unit. It jumps around an I have to strong arm it. I’ve used this mixer probably 10 times in 7 months and it is honestly a piece of crap. I’ve tried to reach out to Kitchenaid 4 times in the last 2 months and have not gotten any reply. I had one of the originals and it was great. I’m so disappointed. Do not recommend any longer

    Bought this for my mom, had to exchange the mixer 3 times, worst mixer ever. It has ruined her baking spree because of how poor this mixer is.

    Dough hook is peeling

    (This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Good unit but the enamel or paint is already peeling off the dough hook. Not sure if it was a just a defective one but it is always on properly and doesn't touch the bowl so not sure why this is happening. The 4.5 qt is just a tad small. I wish the standard size or starting size for the price we pay started at 5 qt as the standard.

    Durability

    This is my second KitchenAid mixer. My mom was a professional baker and never used any other brand. I will never either. My last one worked perfectly for 30 years!! My new one got a workout with all our family baking.

    Does not disappoint

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve always wanted a KitchenAid mixer, but was thought it wasn’t an investment I really needed. I bought myself one to do my Christmas baking this past Christmas and wow does it live up to the hype! It’s a workhorse and I couldn’t believe the amount of time I saved when baking cookies, simply by not having to hold the mixer or scrape the bowl as often. One month in and I’ve used it at least a dozen times already. I’m sorry I didn’t buy one sooner, but I am so glad I finally did!

    So far, so good!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've wanted a KitchenAid mixer for years and finally made it happen, not sure what took me so long because it made holiday baking a breeze. I debated between the 4.5-Quart and 5-Quart and ultimately went with the 4.5-Quart. I'm happy I did, it serves its purpose well.

    Best invention since slice bread!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love my KitcheAid! I started serious baking last year, and this mixer made a huge difference, both in saving time and getting amazing results. The only downfall is that accessories are quite expensive.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had this for over 40 years and loved it. It was time to get a new one so I bought the same model. Unfortunately it died within a couple of weeks. They are sending me a new one under warranted however I have yet to receive it. Disappointing….

    Cheaply coated attachments

    The stand mixer works well but I am not happy with the mixing attachments. A piece of the enamel coating on the flat beater came off after just one use of the mixer. I can't help but be paranoid now that more pieces will flake off into my food or dough during use. I am also concerned about the longevity of the coating in general. I wish the mixer just came with the stainless attachments instead. This mixer is too expensive to have cheap attachments.
