Hello Everyone,
Just wanted to say that on Tuesday I saw on this post that Dillards had the empire red KA mixer on clearance for $135.
I've wanted a KA for the longest, so this was my chance. Only problem I don't shop online for anything. Well a long story short. I called a couple of Dillards store and asked if I they had any empire red and if I could get it for the online price. One store person said no, so the next day I tried the other store and she said yes, bring in the ad.
Well I went that very day. As a matter of fact I left after I hung up the phone.
Tried it last night and I'm so happy. I just love it. The batter was so smooth. Just awesome.
I forgot who posted the information, but thank you so very much for posting.

That's so awesome! I can't wait to have one myself!
Good for you ..
"And you will live happily ever after with your KA mixer". 
Yesterday I became the proud owner of a KA. I am SOOO happy It does mix the smoothest batter. I actually baby talked to mine and my husband almost lost it he laughed so hard. I got the classic 4 1/2 QT. I wanted the red one because red is my favorite color but hey i'm happy with white.
I LOVE mine too! I got a great deal...I got a onyx black professional series 6 quart for $199!! can you believe that!? It is SOOO worth the money!! Ive had it for a couple months now. Its so nice making royal icing with a mixer that doesnt sound like its going to die and without smoking everywhere!! 
JanH- I got it at a store called TUesday Morning. Im not sure if your formiliar with it? I was just shopping one day and noticed it...and went inside. Its much like a TJ MAxx/Marshalls type store. Anyways..I was just looking around and on the top shelf there were like, 5 brand new ones. I looked at the tag and about had a heart attack. Called my mom and had her come up and buy it (She was going to buy me the Artisian one for my birthday but I had her get this one instead) So I definately lucked out. Im pretty sure there are still some there.....
When I first said to my DH that I was going to spend that kind of money on a mixer he thought I was NUTS!!! Needless to say it is 8 years later and that mixer is still one of the best purchases I have ever made!
Good luck with your new mixer!
Hey Dordee - I just got a new KA mixer last week. The red one. I love minie too and I TALK to mine too. I was gone overnight last night and when I got home I washed my mixer all down and was talking to it!! My husband thought I was crazy too!!
i have just the basic KA... would i do better with a bigger, better, stronger model????
I don't own a handheld either anymore. Just my pink 5 qt KA. Love it! You know what though? I have 2 bowls (one is a 4.5 qt and the other is the 5 qt that came with this mixer) as my stepmother had bought me an extra bowl. The extra bowl REALLY comes in handy when dividing a batch of icing to flavor differently.
I would like a 6 qt, but it doesn't come in the same pink.
Jan H - I hope you find one!! THeyre SO nice..a very good investment. I wish I would have known...because I just got back from IN last weekend COuld have delivered!
Candy - Which pink one do you have? The light pink one or the fuschia one...crandberry one from Sears?
Im so excited..!
THis is kinda crazy..but Im getting a second one - the crandberry artisian one from sears (BRIGHT pink!). I dont really know why ill need two....but my aunt is buying it for me since im doing her wedding cake, and i am definately NOT complaining! Its free right?
Im planning on using the pink one when I get my own house since its smaller, and then just using the bigger one for all my cake stuff (since i have a separate location for my cakes)
I cant wait!
Ill bet! Its hard NOT to love anything pink!!
I want pink spatulas!!! and pink measuring cups!! i LOVE pink!! My little "house" or shop or wahtever you call it I just painted the inside all pink. Pink is such a happy color!! 
Im going to have to definately check it out. Then we can match!! heh
