Re: Costco vs local kitchen boutique: Kitchenaide mixer
Another thing that I know more about than I ever cared to. My wife owned a bakery for 10 years before becoming an OT, and I have worked on plenty of these.
The new Kitchenaids are the same, internally. They make 2 versions, the artisan and the Pro, but any store that carries one or the other is the same. Up until a few years ago the cheaper ones had a plastic gear, it was actually nice for a beginner cook/baker, because under load it would break as opposed to burning out the motor. The nicer ones had a brass type gear.
All of them now have roughly the same build quality.. We have 6 of them in our kitchen. Is this overkill??? Yep, but I don't complain, cheaper than the 9 bikes in my shop.
