This Is the Lowest Price We’ve Seen on This Iconic KitchenAid Stand Mixer

Of course, baking is a year-round activity, but it truly kicks into high gear around fall. If your autumnal to-do list includes whipping up pumpkin breads, apple pies, decadent cakes, and holiday cookies, then you might want to add a KitchenAid stand mixer to your countertop. The powerful workhorse makes the tedious task of mixing, whipping, and kneading a total breeze, and our editors — not to mention celebrity chefs like Ina Garten — swear by it. But KitchenAid stand mixers can be a bit pricey, which is why we’re always looking out for a great deal — like right now: Bed Bath & Beyond is offering the popular Artisan 5-qt. Stand Mixer for just $299.99 (normally $379.99). And FYI: This is the lowest price we’ve seen in a long time!

Available in classic Empire Red, the stand mixer comes with a sturdy 5-qt. stainless steel bowl that’s roomy enough to accommodate dough for up to nine dozen cookies or to mash seven pounds of potatoes at a single go (Thanksgiving just got so much easier!). The head tilts back to let you add ingredients with ease, and the 10-speed motor allows you to slowly blend cake batters or quickly whip up egg whites for meringue.

A flat beater, dough hook, and wire whip are included for tackling everything from shredding chicken to making roti dough, but you can also purchase separate attachments to take your mixer to the next level, including a food processor attachment for faster meal prep and a spiralizer for saucy zoodles.

With the holidays approaching, this is the perfect opportunity to gift yourself or your favorite food lover with a kitchen essential that will get plenty of use in the fall season and for many years to come.
