Title: Beware of 1 year warranty
Product review: I've only been using this mixer for 10 months (but didn't open immediately after purchase so my warranty is over) and it has broken. It will not turn on (I have no electrical problems in my home, it's not the outlet, I've tried many). I've called KithenAid customer service and their only resolution is to take it to a local repair shop since I purchased 13 months ago (the repair shops have quoted me costs, just to look at it, not to fix it, that equal 1/2 of what I paid in the first place). After checking out a few other websites, I found that KitchenAid stand mixers have been performing very poorly over the last few years. I thought I would have this mixer for at least 20 years (since I only bake for special occasions and have used the mixer less than 15 times in less than one year of use). Beware of the limited one-year warranty, these mixers are not as reliable as the brand would have you believe.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
