I've had my Kitchen Aid stand mixer for years and it was given to me by my mother-in-law who also had it for years. It's probably a model from the early 2000s but has always worked beautifully. A few weeks ago, it started speeding erratically unexpectedly. After a bit of research and discovery and tinkering, I still could not figure out why the problem was happening. I inquired about having it fixed professionally but that would've cost me a minimum of $100 plus whatever parts on top of that. I use my mixer multiple times a week and couldn't really leave it in the shop for a week either. After watching a few of the videos from Appliance Parts Pros, I thought that maybe I could give fixing it myself a try. So I ordered the 3 parts that are recommended together (cost roughly $45), paid for the expedited shipping, got the parts in 2 days and spent roughly an hour slowly working through the videos to remove the old parts and install the new ones. I am a mom of a 4 year old and a 9 month old and they do not leave me alone so this was all done with constant interruptions and sometimes, my baby on my hip. Even still, I was able to do each part and piece easily and smoothly. Lo and behold, I fixed the dang thing! I'm so impressed with myself actually! Thanks to these guys for saving me a bunch of $ and time and the ego boost!
