This enduring popularity stems from its versatility, durability, and iconic design. The stand mixer’s versatility is evident in its ability to handle a wide range of tasks, from whipping cream to kneading dough. It can also be used for tasks like grinding spices, making pasta, and even creating homemade ice cream.
KitchenAid Design Series Evergreen Stand Mixer: $699 @ Williams Sonoma Featuring a unique walnut wooden bowl and brass accents, this revamped stand mixer has already sold out at Crate & Barrel but is still available at Williams Sonoma. This is the first KitchenAid mixer to feature a wooden bowl, which is sure to be more high-maintenance than the brand’s traditional dishwasher-safe metal bowls. However, half of the joy of owning a KitchenAid is the style it brings to your kitchen, and the new Design Series brings that in spades. What’s new? (Image credit: KitchenAid) Despite its modern looks, the KitchenAid Design Series Evergreen Stand Mixer takes inspiration from the natural world, with a leaf design on the lighter shade trim band and a brass plated hub cover which is embossed with a leaf design. Even the control knobs are designed to match the forest-green chassis.
“Evergreen marks a first for the brand as it introduces outdoor elements to the iconic Stand Mixer like never before,” said Chad Ries, global brand director for KitchenAid small appliances. “KitchenAid appliances are designed to engage all of your senses and rekindle the excitement, connection and inspiration found all around us. Evergreen was inspired by the natural elements that make us feel connected to the outdoors.” (Image credit: KitchenAid) As for the bowl, due to the unique wood graining on every mixer, no two are alike. The food-safe walnut will require a bit more attention than other KitchenAid bowls, including the occasional re-seasoning with food-safe mineral oil. You’ll also need to make sure that the bowl isn’t left submerged in water for long periods of time, so it’s advised to hand-wash and dry it after every use.
