The KitchenAid Professional 600 Series 6-Quart Stand Mixer has a 575 watt motor so that it can handle the toughest of jobs. It also has 10 speeds to give you the power and control over your mixing that you really want and need. It has an electronic speed sensor, and auto shut-off, and a soft start to minimize splatter and the mess.

While the KitchenAid Professional 600 Series 6 Quart Stand Mixer in nickel gets an average rating of 4.3 with more than 1,200 reviews it should be noted that some of those are 1 star, 2 star, and 3 star reviews. Complaints about this machine include having to pay lots of money to repair it after a couple of years, can't handle batch after batch of heavy dough which a professional machine should be able to handle, and the machine freezing or smoking part way through a job. Many of these reviews are rather old. KitchenAid used plastic castings on their gear box which caused a lot of issues. Since then they have fixed the issue and the new machine should have more durability, be able to handle larger jobs, and should have the life span that you really want for a machine of this price.

Overall, if you are looking for a stand mixer then the KitchenAid Professional 600 Series 6-Quart Stand Mixer is a great option. It has a powerful motor, can mix and whip a variety of items including kneading bread dough, and has the size that you want for large batches of stuff. These are the features that will really make your cooking and baking lots easier. Plus with their updates you will have a machine that will last through all the things that you throw at it.
