Vivohome Stand Mixer
Score: 75/100Rankings
The KitchenAid Artisan 5-Quart Tilt-Head Stand Mixer combines a sturdy all-metal build with planetary mixing and a generous bowl, making it ideal for large home baking projects. Its modest 300 W motor and wobble issues under heavy loads limit heavy-duty performance. Best for home bakers who prioritize capacity and style over industrial-grade power.
The VIVOHOME 6-quart mixer offers a strong 660W motor and generous capacity, making it great for heavy doughs and batters. Its trade-offs are a short warranty and non-dishwasher-safe parts, which may deter power-users. Ideal for home bakers who want high performance without a premium price tag.

Professional reviewers commend the Artisan's all-metal build, 59 touchpoints, and 10-speed planetary action, noting it delivers durable, versatile performance for home bakers and earns the #1 mixer brand reputation. However, they caution that its 0.19 hp motor and tilt-head design limit its suitability for heavy-duty, high-volume professional use.
Everyday users praise the mixer's reliable mixing of large cookie batches, the convenience of the tilt-head, and the variety of color options, while repeatedly mentioning wobble under heavy loads, motor strain on dense doughs, and the tall raised height as common pain points.
“Excellent helper... finishes kneading quickly.”
“impressive for the price point”
“looks great on counter”
Professional reviewers commend the VIVOHOME mixer for its powerful 660W motor, stable suction-cup base, and generous 6-quart capacity, noting it offers excellent value for the price. However, they point out a basic build quality and the lack of dishwasher-safe parts and a short warranty as areas where it falls short of premium competitors.
Everyday users consistently praise the mixer's quiet operation, strong performance on dough and batter, and attractive design, often rating it highly for stability and capacity. Recurring themes include occasional concerns about weight, desire for more speed options, and the non-dishwasher-safe attachments, but overall satisfaction remains strong.
