KitchenAid

Stand mixer brand

KitchenAid is a brand of kitchen appliances, most associated with its iconic stand mixer—a heavy countertop machine with a distinctive rounded head and multiple attachments for mixing, kneading, and whipping.

The brand has expanded to blenders, dishwashers, and other appliances, but a KitchenAid without qualification usually means the mixer: She got a KitchenAid as a wedding gift.
