Title: Kitchen Aid Gear Failure
Review: Feb 16 2012-Another Whirlpool throwaway product as Kitchen Aid is owned by WhirlpoolCorp. In December 2009 I purchased a Kitchen Aid Pro 600 for my sweetheart for Christmas. We have always wanted one and were excited. In January 2012 A gear failed and made the mixer inoperable. She called customer service, out of warranty obviously (12 months). They suggested shipping to a repair center, a $100 + problem. I am currently ordering parts and will repair myself. It is sad that for $300 + you can't purchase a quality product. A great opportunity for a company to create value for the consumer. We definitely did not feel like 24 months of use was a good value for our dollar.Whirlpool take note: All your appliances lack in quality.GMC's Cadillac brand poor quality 20+ years = GMC bankrupt.KitchenAid KP26M1XNP Professional 600 Series 6-Quart Stand Mixer, Nickel PearlPS Would Like info on a quality product that will last. Be sure to do your homework, hope this helps someone.
