Factory-Reconditioned KitchenAid RRK5AWH 5-Quart Mixer, White Review
I bough this model at Costco 10 years ago for 0. I don't bake a lot but am very happy with this mixer's help. I make regual/whole wheat bread dough, pizza dough, cookies and grind meat (with the food grinder attachment). It works very well, will take up to 8 cups of flour. I broke the gear month ago by trying to make dumpling skin (as tough as noodle) in high speed! My husband got the replacement gear online and spent few hours and fixed it. In the user's guide it did say to put it on low speed when working with tough dough. My fault.
Since it is 5-quart, it won't beat only 1 or 2 egg white. The wire whip just can't reach the egg white. You can beat it by hand first to increase the volume a little bit and then let the mixer do the rest.
Also this is my must have for meat ball making.

Factory-Reconditioned KitchenAid RRK5AWH 5-Quart Mixer, White Overview
With its ample dimensions and burly construction, this commercial 5-quart KitchenAid mixer is prepared to be a culinary beast of burden. Smartly engineered so that the beater moves clockwise while the shaft moves counterclockwise, the beater reaches every part of the bowl without requiring it to rotate. 5 mixing speeds plus a stir setting means the appliance can do everything from folding cranberries into biscotti to whipping up a fluffy meringue. The all-metal construction includes a heavy-duty motor to handle stiff batters and a hardwearing transmission that ensures continuous power. The mixers seamless, stainless-steel, 5-quart bowl stands flat on its indented base and features sealed handle and bracket connections that meet NSF standards. A professional-style bowl lift raises it easily and securely into position, even if its brimming with weighty dough.
The mixer comes with a burnished flat beater, a burnished dough hook, and a commercial wire whip. The flat beater is perfect for mixing cake batters, mashing potatoes, and stirring quick breads. The dough hook comes in handy for breads and coffee cakes, and the wire whip is your tool for icings and whipped cream.
4 sealed rubber feet hold the mixer stably in place, and a 3-wire, 6-foot power cord meets commercial requirements. As a safety mechanism, the overload reset button pops out if the mixer is overloaded, and the motor shuts off. If you only bake occasionally, a less heavy-duty unit will do the job. But if you work or recreate in the kitchen, this hard-working mixer can keep the pace. --Emily Bedard
Editors note: This is a reconditioned appliance. Reconditioned generally means that the appliance has been returned to the manufacturer, who brings it back to like-new condition. Some appliances may contain cosmetic blemishes.
