I have the white. I wanted the red but they didn't have them at Lowes (which is where I found the best deal). Have fun! I wouldn't trade mine for anything!!!

Darker colors show flour but white shows cocoa powder. I have a white one and my kitchen is brick red. The next one I get is going to be. . .
PINK!!! I love pink. I think either blue or red would be nice--have you considered black or the grey one?

Oh, well, I have always LOVED the red one but.... I have the white...

It was on sale some time ago and I think the choice was only black or white... My husband bought it for me as a gift...

I love the metallic chrome mixer...I think it would go very nice with your red and cobalt blue kitchen. I also think the yellow might be fun..although I like the red ones too. Is this indecisive enough for you? Can you imagine me when its time to remodel my kitchen icon_lol.gif You are going to love your KA - I can't live without mine!

If you are anything like me when you make icing it wouldn't matter what color the mixer is or the counters or the floor-sugar is everywhere! icon_lol.gif
I wanted the red but ended up the a silver one that we found at Sam's. It is 475 watts and 5qt bowl and $100 less than the 6qt that I could have gotten in red sooo being a semi-responsible adult I got the silver. Not that I don't think about that darn red one though.....

Which ever color you decide remember...those KA last forever and you may not always have a blue and red kitchen! Just a thought! Enjoy!

The Cobalt Blue is really cool. I rec'd this color as a gift, but exchanged it for an ivory color. Hubby and I thought it would be better to get a color we could use with any color scheme.
My favorite right now is the copper colored mixer. : )

My fave color is the chrome one! I have a black one since the chrome wasn't available when I bought mine.

Mine is the cobalt blue, a gorgeous deep blue. My kitchen is no longer blue, I moved. However, my new kitchen is hunter green and burgundy, and the color still seems to fit in. As previously stated, remember the mixer will last a long time, so pick a color you can live with. While it is true, the dark color shows flour, dust, cocoa, everything...it makes it easier for me to know that I've cleaned it thoroughly!. Pick what you love, I'm so proud of mine I don't think I would mind if it didn't match my kitchen at all! icon_lol.gif ...it would just make it easier for everyone to know that it was there!

Well!!! I GOT THE RED ARTSIAN!!!!!!!! I LOVE ITT!!!!! Kohl's had it for $299.99 I got it for $239.99. They also had the bigger one for 399.99 on sale for 287.00 but I decided against it because I read the artsian is quieter and I do a lot of my baking when the kids are asleep so I went with the quiet one!!

I guess I am boring and practical. I would go with white. It won't change for future decorating white is white is white! I love the new colors but what about in 5 years when that color is out. Your KA will long out live a fad. Just my .2 cents worth.

I got the pink one as well. I got it for $150CND - they retail normally for about $300-350 here but I found this one at a local liquidator's. The guy said they get mostly pink ones because they seem to be the ones left at the end of a store's sale.

Pink so completely does NOT go with our deep green counters. But I don't care, I got my KA for better than half-price. I figure if the colour REALLY gets to bugging me, I can use that as an excuse to redo the kitchen! icon_biggrin.gif
