I am looking at kitchenaid mixers on ebay and I had a couple of questions. Is there a certain mixer thats better than others? There was the KA mixer and then the KA mixer Pro 500.

Also, I want a brand new one and all the ones I looked at said New in Box-Not refurbished. Does that really mean Brand new or am I being too trusting? I am going with ebay cause I REALLY want one, but I can't afford to get one from the store.

any thoughts/suggestions? I really appreciate any help-you ladies (and some gents) on this site ROCK and are always sooo helpful. TIA.

If it says "New In Box - Not Refurbished", then it should be New. Check out the seller's ratings/feedback from other customers. If you don't see any negative feedback and they have lots of comments, they can usually be trusted.

As far as which one is better, I can't help you. I have a Wolfgang Puck from his Bistro collection and I LOVE IT!!!!
