Can someone tell me how the Keurig red compares to the Kitchenaid red?  I have the Keurig red coffee maker and am going to buy a couple of Kitchenaid appliances but don't know if I should buy the Kitchenaid red or the cranberry to more closely match my Keurig.

@HowsYerMommaAnEm  I have the KitchenAild stand mixer in red, that I bought 15 years ago. I have a red Keurig coffeemaker that I bought 2 years ago. The red Keurig is more of a cranberry look when I placed it next to the mixer to check for you. I would probably get a cranberry color in KitchenAid.  Hope that helps.

I too have the red Kitchenaid stand mixer. It is a bright, true red. My red Keurig is the closest they had at the time, called Cinnamon. I think I am due for a new Keurig because mine is having issues. I hope I can find one in true red.

Either color is pretty. I just have other things that are red such as Le Creuset, Air fryer etc. and match back to those.

I have both, the KA mixer and the small Keurig. They sit next to each other on my counter. There is a difference, but not that much. They go together just fine.

I buy all turquoise appliances when I can get them.  There are no two of them that are exactly the same shade of turquoise but I think that makes make the look infinitely more interesting than all sameness.

Isn't the cranberry hand mixer the one they say is more of a pink or hot pink?   I think it isn't much toward the red tones.  I would think the KA red and the red Keurig would be similar but not an exact match.    (I'm crazy about  having items exactly match, but doesn't always happen.)

My DD recently moved out and she wants turquoise appliances as well. I have sent her a few items and while not all the exact same shade they work well together.

@BirdieGal Unfortunately turquoise is not currently a favored color so you may have to wait awhile for it to return.  I'd like to know who uses all this plum/purple in their kitchen?  You never see it in pictures

@Kachina624

I know! I have never seen it in pictures or any house or even model or staged home. In fact, people that I know use either white or black, sometimes stainless. My kitchen is all stainless appliances with the red Kitchenaid etc. I don't know anyone else who uses red. 

My DD's kitchen is cute with the turquoise. She has black granite-type counters so it shows well. I recently found her a turquoise toaster here locally and need to send that.

My appliances and counter top are white.  I started using turquoise accessories, but then they were no longer available it seemed.  I changed my accent colors to purple with chair pads, cookware, drinking glasses, cooking utensils, pot holders, towels, and toaster.  My counter top appliances are white.  My slow cookers are purple, but are only out when I'm using them.
