White versus colored kitchenaid stand mixer

Mrsjacoria2018, on August 19, 2018 at 12:55 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 38
Which do you prefer? White kitchenaid stand mixer that matches everything in every season? Or a fun color that makes you happy when you see it?

I'm between white and lavender leaning towards white. I dont really have my house colors decided but I love shades of purple.

Not sure which to put on the registry.

    I personally went with a purple KitchenAid stand mixer. 😊 I love to bake and figured might as well have something in my favorite color when I do something I love. I also just plan to keep it in a pantry closet or kitchen cabinet when I’m not using it, so I really didn’t worry about it matching with the other appliances that might be on a countertop. But I would say it’s totally up to you and how you feel!

    I put a mixer with a pop of color on my registry so i could have that pop of color in my kitchen (grey counter tops, stainless steel appliances and white cabinets).

    I thought about purple but then I thought, what if I move on to another color later? So I got shiny black and I’ve loved it for years (decided I wanted one then not wait for a someday marriage; I’ve had it about ten years so I guess I made the right call).

    I have neutral colors in my kitchen except my mixer is teal. I like how much it stands out.
    I vote for color.

    Your kitchen aid mixer will outlast you. Get one in a color that will go with every kitchen you may have

    I love the fun colors, but I went with silver to keep it neutral enough to use with any decor.

    I went with a white kitchen aid mixer because I didn’t know what color my future kitchen would be and i wanted it to be neutral so it could match.

    I had the professional series in white for years, then times got tough and I had to sell it to make rent. The following year for mother's day (I was pregnant with our middle daughter, his first biological child) he got me a steel grey one. I LOVE my kitchen aide, and plan to always have one, but I can register for the attachments. Between the two colors I've had, I like the steel grey more because with the white, it always looked a little dirty no matter how much I cleaned it after use. I used it daily though so that probably had something to do with it

    I have a candy apple red one. I LOVE it. Nothing else in my house is red because my favorite colors are blues but I like having a pretty, happy mixer. I would definitely go lavender. Your design will change over time so white may not always fit but if you like the color, you'll always like the color.

    I have a white one from when I was in culinary school 6 years ago. If I had a choice I would go with a pop of color since baking is my happy place. I would go with which you love more.

    I have a white one but wished I had a colored one. I'm of the opinion that color pops don't have to match/coordinate with other things, particularly in the kitchen. I've had completely different styles and colors in my kitchens over the years, a colored mixer would have worked in any of them. Of course if the color doesn't work for you, you can do what my 75 year old mother does and store it in the pantry. I'm pretty sure it's the heaviest thing she carries anymore.

    I don’t think it has to match the kitchen. Get whatever color makes you happy. I keep mine on the counter but I have a KitchenAid cover on it to keep the dust off. Mine is a charcoal matte.

    I got a white one specifically because I like to change up the colors in the kitchen every couple of years, right down to the paint on the walls.
