This Stand Mixers give to us some advantages, like this :
1. KAide Killer
Very, very, tough and well built. Smooth operation and quiet motor. Heavy duty stainless steel accessories. I had ordered a KAide Pro 6 Quart online but when I saw and operated the Viking at a local dealer I new this one was much better for my needs. I cancelled the KA order and bought the Viking on the spot. A couple things I liked about the Viking was tilt head for easy access to beaters and the wheels on the bottom. Its very easy to move around the cabinet, with the head locked down just lift up the front of the machine and it pivots onto it 2 rear wheels. It moves forward, backward and slides easily left and right. When done set the front down and its locked in place with no movement. Also the Viking is very easy to use the beaters go on and come off very easily with no fuss. It has two spots to hook up optional stuff, one is for the slow speed options and the other for the high speed stuff like blenders and others. But the best part and the main reason I bought this over...

2. Powerful, tough as nails and looks good too
This machine is one tough cookie. I have had mine for almost a year now and it is showing no signs of slowing down. The finish is extra strong and it still looks brand new. I use it mostly for mixing bread dough. It seems if you can fit the dough in the thing it will mix it up.

I would have bought the 7-quart model but it will not fit under our cabinets. But I'm not disapointed in the 5-quart model at all.

It is easy to move with the back pivot wheels. Just grab the the bowl handle and wheel it back and forth. It also slides left and right just as easily. Set the front down and it holds firmly in place even when under heavy loads.

I have no attachments for it yet, but I will be buying the meat grinder in the future. I have no doubts this thing will be able to handle meat grinding with ease, but as of yet I haven't tested that.

The bowl on mine can be dificult at times to remove. That could be a problem for someone who is not of...

VSM500 ISSUES
Bought a VSM500 for my wife for Xmas 2005. The issues we have had: 1. The instruction manual asks you to remove the beaters/dough hook etc in a clock wise manner. So, we got the beater in but then couldn't get it out. We tried and tried and were very discouraged. Well, my wife went back in and tried some hours later and it just popped right off. So we repeated the process and realized that to get the accessories off you actually have to remove them counter clockwise. Would be clockwise if you were looking down on the unit. Anyway, initially found that discouraging. Also, there is a round plastic piece that the mixing bowl sits on as it comes out the packaging, do not discard. Granted we have had the unit all of one day, but the plastic piece actually helps put the bowl on and take it off. Without it we found it to be somewhat tight.

I post this here b/c I couldn't find anything when I was looking to see what the problem was with our unit.

Having listed all the...
