Disappointed
December 25, 2012
In the last few years, I have made a concerted effort to purchase American made products to use in preparing and serving food. I searched for an American made mixer and thought I found one at Williams Sonoma. This product is marked American made on the website, but the box labels as made in CHINA.
Cons: not as described

fab product but died too young
November 27, 2012
got this from WS about three years ago. worked like a charm. AND is was baby lotion pink. loved it.
then this holiday season i picked it up again (don't bake much in the summer) and it was completely dead. guessing electrical components shot? talked to several repair folks and kitchenaid. no one could help (kitchenaid said 'we don't support' and everyone else said "$69 item, not worth it").
i would be less bummed if the gross $12 mixer my mom bought me in 1989 wasn't going strong in 2009 - when i sold it at a garage sale and bought the kitchenaid mixer.
won't be going there again. bought a cuisinart instead.
Pros: Easy to Use, Easy to Clean, Size, Speed, Design
Cons: Quality, Temperamental, durable

We had the same problem but...
My husband pushed really, really hard on the 'on' button & it cracked some sort of seal & worked like a dream after that... Unfortunately we had already replaced it with a Breville, thinking it was dead & hence him really cranking on the thing, so we ended up selling it on Craigslist.
