All KitchenAid All the Time

chessylady — Sun, 13 Oct 2019 18:55:01 GMT

If you don't need a Kitchen Aid stand mixer, you might as well turn off ITKWD. They are spending so much time this weekend pushing the mixer with a hard sell. Yes, it is a good deal with free shipping but don't most people watching a kitchen show already have one? So I am just doing Q checks today.

It's the TSV. All TSV's get the same treatment on ITKWD whether they are even kitchen related or not. At least this one is kitchen related.

Some are calling in stating they have one since the beginning, ~1919 & are buying another or buying for gifts etc. Some say they want to have 2 KA's.

The vendor's for KA isn't pleasant to listen to.

"Don't most people watching a kitchen show already have one?" No, there are new humans born everyday. New consumers develop means and needs every single day. That is an ignorant assumption on your part.

Ive been watching cooking shows for about 5 decades but got my KA about 5 years ago. What a strange assumption to make

Her voice quality may not be velvet but she is an amazing presenter and knows her products and is a great teacher in my opinion.

I have two Kitchenaid's and do not feel like turning the channel. Rather, I enjoy the presentations because of the cooking ideas I get. I also enjoy hearing callers tell their own stories and history with Kitchenaid. There is always someone tuning in for the first time that has not seen the presentation.

~~~All we need is LOVE💖

Yes, the vendor is knowledgeable but her voice is hard to listen to. Mute is best.

Every time I've turned on Q its been the mixer. Seems like hours and hours of programming BUT I'm sure with the holidays coming many will buy! I love all the colors!!!

I've always done a lot of baking; always made double batches of cookies. The only mixer I owned until a couple of years ago was a $20 GE hand mixer I got as a wedding gift 55 years ago. Still just have a hand mixer. Those big space hog Kitchenaids are not necessary to cook or run a productive kitchen.

@chessyladyYou would think so - if they didn't sell thousands of them every time they're offered.

But it's like anything else, if I personally don't have much interest I don't watch. I've stopped browsing my local shops just for something to do and I no longer turn to a shopping channel just to see if something might catch my eye.

I did deliberately watch a small bit of Creede silver Day. After 7 years of buying almost new jewelry, I went through 2 break-ins this summer and lots of my collection is gone so I wanted and even sort of needed a new pair of earrings.

Tina is a sweatheart, I love to see her mixing and enjoying her life, not a very nice thing to say about her.

This is very true @Kachina624 . I've tried for years to gift my sister the KA mixer as she makes the best chocolate chip cookies and more...nope, she has her 26 year old Hamilton Beach hand mixer and refuses to give it up!

Sometimes if the dough is too dense she'll just hand mix.

For years I used a hand mixer bought in KMart for $9.99 back in the 70's and all through my younger years until I started "borrowing" my grandmothers old KA and fell in love with it!

I bought a KA stand mixer in the early 70s at a yard sale which was already older but that darn thing was a workhorse. I then opened a catering/baking business and upgraded...

these KA mixers aren't for everyone's needs but once you use it you fall in love with it! Of course, I have my KA hand mixer which I use often since mine does not sit on counter.

Personally, I think once the Food Network chef shows showed chefs using them we "ALL" wanted one thinking our food/baking would come out better ... wink wink!

I will listen and when I have the time always watch her. I learn from her and find her sweet mannered just Laura Weathers was, who also did not have a velvet voice.

Yes, you should turn the TV off if you don't want to watch ITKWD rather than complaining on the boards about the show. I have a KitchenAid mixer but I like to watch their representative, Tina go over her recipes. I usually find one or more that I want to try. So please turn the TV off rather than gripe...

@KatieB. I already figured out that I need to turn the TV off rather than listen to Tina's voice which just grates on my nerves.

Gee some of you are so rude. I come on this blog to share and get ideas. I have a KA mixer and brought a new one today because I wanted another color. I have watched Tina all day and find her very entertaining. She shows different recipes which I like. We are all different in the way we speak but I think we are a lot alike in the kitchen if we are on this blog.

Re: All KitchenAid All the Time

LizzieInSRQ — Mon, 14 Oct 2019 01:15:39 GMT

@Flashgordon22 Congrats, what color did you already have and what new color did you get?

I have a color they featured a few years ago, Raspberry Ice ( a pearlized bright pink ...love it!)

Don't forget that new hand mixer that softens butter as it mixes.

I bought one at Bed and Bath, they're grey and copper colored

Oster with Heat Soft technology.
