kitchenaid mixer 600

A versatile professional mixer the kitchenaid professional 600 series contains everything you need to mix dough faster and better. It includes a PowerKnead(tm) spiral dough hook, which replicates hand-kneading to handle 20% more dough than previous models. The 10-speed slide control lets you decide the consistency of the dough precisely, 575-watt of motor power and six-quart bowl capacity.

While earlier models had problems with heavy duty tasks due to a plastic housing holding the heavy duty metal gears, this has now been rectified and the appliance continues to be the Mercedes of stand mixers.

Professional Bowl-Lift Design

The durable bowl-lift design keeps the mixing bowl securely in place during use. Forget about hovering over the mixer waiting to hand-scrape the sides of the bowl, the KitchenAid KP26M1XLC delivers higher beater to bowl coverage than any other stand mixer. The exclusive planetary mixing action of the KP26M1XLC spirals the beater to 67 different points around the circumference of the bowl for more complete mixing.

You're kids might actually get tired of pizza after you realize how simple it is to mix up a batch of dough using the KP26M1XLC's unique PowerKnead™ spiral dough hook. Give up the floured board, the sticky fingers, and the concrete-like dough residue left on your counter for the convenience of one easy-to-clean bowl and mixing hook. Even better, the spiral dough hook replicates hand-kneading to handle 20% more dough than previous models.

With tough economic times on the horizon and a growing emphasis on healthy
eating more people are seeking frugal, healthier alternatives to prepared foods and restaurant meals.

For households equipped with a stand mixer, and for those who have one on
their wish list, the road to more selfsufficient cooking can be a relatively easy one.  By using any of more than a dozen optional attachments, the powerful motor of this kitchen workhorse can be tapped for everything from grinding grain and meat to kneading dough, slicing vegetables, rolling and cutting pasta, and even making ice cream.

The Kitchenaid mixer 600 is available in a choice of either a tilt-head or a bowl-lift design.  The tilt-head design features easy bowl access and can accommodate eight to nine cups of flour. The professional style bowl-lift design accommodates 12-14 cups, enough to make up to 13 dozen cookies or eight loaves of bread. 

Every model includes three basic accessories:  a flat beater for mixing batters, making pie  dough or mashing potatoes; a dough hook for kneading everything from soft dough to stiff pizza dough; and a wire whip for beating egg whites and whipping cream.
