Hi Sue, a couple of things may be contributing here; are you using the Flat Beater, Flex Edge Beater or Wire Whisk for this and how long are you running the Stand Mixer for? Have you had a look at the beater to bowl clearance of your Stand Mixer? If you check the guide here on page 7 you can find instructions; https://kitchenaid.com.au/sites/default/files/5KSM160PSAWH.pdf

Hi Julya, there is no difference in performance of the machines, they all have the same motor. The KSM156 and KSM170 are the same, you will notice on our website the KSM 156 is no longer available. The difference between the KSM170 and the KSM160 is the paint finish and accessories, the KSM170 has a double coat platinum finish and a glass bowl, whilst the KSM160 has a 4.8L Stainless Steel bowl, a 2.8L Stainless Steel bowl and a pouring shield. If you have any further questions we are happy to help. Kind Regards, The KitchenAid Team

Hi Kaz, The KSM156 and KSM170 are exactly the same machine, we are currently streamlining model code to eliminate this confusion. The difference between the KSM156/170 and the KSM160 is the paint finish and accessories, the KSM156/170 has a premium double coat finish, whilst the KSM160 has a second 2.8L bowl and a pouring shield. All Tilt-Head designed accessories and attachments will fit all three of these models, so stainless steel will sit in the KSM170 and glass will fir the KSM160, so if you purchase the KSM156/170 you can also purchase the stainless steel and use it. If you have any other question we are happy to help! Kind Regards, The KitchenAid Team

Hi Maya, if you send through your email, preferred contact number and delivery address, and the serial number of your Stand Mixer (code beginning with W, you can find this on the sticker on the base of your machine) to [email protected] I will pass this onto our Customer Service Team who will send a new one out. Kind Regards, The KitchenAid Team.

Hi there, The KSM156 comes with a flex edge beater as well as a standard flat beater. We hope this helps. Kind regards, The KitchenAid Team

Hi, The KitchenAid Stand Mixers are designed with power saving engineering so they only draw the power required to run the machine, unlike other brands which are not as energy efficient. We hope this helps, The KitchenAid Team

Hi Kay,
The main differences are as follows;
Artisan:
KSM150 - single stainless steel bowl 4.8L; double coated enamel finish
KSM160 - twin stainless steel bowl 4.8L and 2.8L; double coated enamel finish
Platinum:
KSM156/KSM170 - single glass bowl 4.7L; double coated metallic finish

Hope this helps!

Hi Jo, The main difference is that the food processor has one dicer, but has an adjustable slicer. This is different to the rotor shredder which is just one slicer thickness and two size graters.

Hi Jenni, The stainless steel 4.8L bowl and pouring shield will fit the KSM156, the glass bowl is 4.7L as it is slightly thicker.

Hi Caroline, our Mixer's themselves do not do the things you have listed, but our attachments which you can purchase and use with the Stand Mixer certainly can. From what you have asked I can recommend the food processor attachment, the slicer/shredder attachment and the mincer/grinder attachment. You can find all of these and more on our website here; https://kitchenaid.com.au/products/stand-mixer-attachments

Hi Pamela, Unfortunately our Stand Mixers are not for blending, we do have a great range of blenders and hand blenders which will do the job, you can find them on our website here; https://kitchenaid.com.au/
