Kitchen aid hostess

I really like the new lady that demonstrates Kitchen Aid but what happened to LAURA that was there for so many years? If she retired. Wishing her happiness and good health.

I enjoy her also. She has many of Laura's qualities.

I loved Laura, but she did retire.

She actually has Laura's voice, at least to my ears. If I'm in the other room I would swear it's Laura.

Laura wrote a blog on her retirement. I can't post links with my kindle. Page back to June and you'll find it.

I agree. Was wondering if this is Laura's daughter.

If Laura retired, I hope they came out with a cake and everyone wished her well on-air.... if they did I sure missed it!!

And YES.... her voice is very much like Laura's....

I've found her demos to be interesting..... I've enjoyed them!

Tina the new Kitchen Aid rep. won the Pillsbury Bake-off a couple of years ago. Takes a while to adjust to a new rep. I sure did like Laura and miss her. She did retire, but I don't know that QVC made any recognition of it with a cake, etc. If so, I missed it. I think Tina has improved since her earlier appearances.

Yes, she does have a very similar voice. She seems like a nice person, but sadly has a rather unpleasant voice for tv (like many others on QVC lol)

I think she is a perfect fit for KitchenAid. I think she knows her way around a kitchen and speaks well and can be understood. Good luck to her!!

I wish Laura a happy retirement too. I imagine she will be busier than ever and baking up a storm! I enjoyed the new rep the few times I have seen her. I didn't watch this weekend, nor do I need any kitchen appliances, so I can't speak to the recent presentations. It's always a challenge to take over from someone who is so closely associated with a product.

I loved Laura Wethers. She told everyone on air, earlier in the year that she had been on QVC for 20 plus years and wasn't going anywhere....then she was gone. Interesting that I am reading she retired, I called QVC to ask what happened and was told she needed time with her family. Miss her. Se was a home economist and knew her stuff. Wish she would come back.
