How cute is the MINI KA stand mixer - ugh!!! Feedback, please

I just got in and watching QPlus and this adorable mixer is on!

 

I'd love to have this (although I have hand KA mixer) just cuz it's cute & maybe for smaller baking. I bake a lot but not in big batches as before.

 

And I'm thinking of what a great gift for a younger person - my GD loves to bake.  

 

Im going to try to NOT order for me - perfect size for my galley kitchen. 

 

Anyone have it? Pros / cons please!

It's not for me, as I'm not a KA fan, but I just had to reply to say that I totally get the 'cute' thing.  I can't tell you how many things I've purchased because they were cute!  Smiley Happy

That shipping just kills me and for me, I need to add sales tax.

 

The Q version you get the extra edge blade but similar product is available from Macy's, Bed Bath and Beyond.

 

If you have one, really a smaller one is not necessary, you do have the hand mixer but I understand if people just want to spend money, what else is money good for than to spend it.

Well , I can get over it's cuteness very quickly when I look at $260 + $17 S&H + $18 tax where I live would be $295. It's simply not that cute! Especially since the KA I have already works perfectly and is also very cute with it's cookie monster decal on it.

As everybody knows I done bought mine months ago at B&B glad I didn't wait it's not any cheaper if I could had waited. LOL

 

LIke mine it's got a quiet engine. Q has more colors of course.

B& B just had silver black and red. I bought the red.

 

Just checked my receipt I paid 263 after the 20% offf. I didn't pay shp since it was in the store just paid the tax.

 

I did good. LOL

 

You all enjoy your new mini !

I saw it in person and thought it was so small.    I'd rather just use a hand mixer.

 If you can afford it, let loose ! LIfe is to short not to get something that you might regret later. I deny myself nothing LOL It's a work item after all not a frill thing. Anything that can lighten my work load I don't worry about it.
