Hi Susan,

I have a 500 Watt, 6 quart Kitchen Aid Custom Edition mixer. I'm very
happy with it. I bought it around two years ago and never had any problems
with it.

Most the time I am creating large recipes (e.g. a half-sheet layer cake)
but I have created small things like 9" round cakes without trouble.

For Christmas it gets a good workout making a lot of heavy dough items.
The motor has always been more power than I have ever needed.
