This is a black 550 HD 5.5 (5.2L) quart bowl-lift stand mixer with a powerful 575-watt motor. It was gifted to us several years ago and honestly used only a couple of times as was too high to fit under our kitchen cabinets and we finally purchased a smaller version. It has an electronic soft start that gradually brings the mixer to the desired speed and mixing action. It has 10-speeds and includes a metal wire whip, flat beater and spiral dough hook. The bowl-lift design provides sturdy bowl support for stability when mixing heavy ingredients or large batches. Is a power-house! The lever smoothly raises the mixing bowl into position for efficient beater-to-bowl contact. Cash, please. Instruction book w/ recipes included.
