Hi. Price has gone up. They will not make this model any more and once they are gone they are gone. Thank you

Yes, I received the same warranty offer from Kitchenaid on my Pro stand mixer, that I bought from a shopping channel. It's a good deal. I purchased the 10 yr. also for 75 dollars. That has been several years ago.

I'm buying one myself, but will take it apart before first use just to see what could damage it. I suspect that the buyers who have problems are running the unit too long on too fine a setting, expecting performance of an $400 grinder. More expensive grinders are designed with heavier gears made of steel instead of plastic and better heat dissipation so they can run forever even on espresso settings. Such are the tradeoffs in designing a $100 burr grinder.

Im not really sure, but I purchased the model suggested, About $ 80.00. Best to have a separate one for this anyway. Not easily disassembled. This item, and the grinder is the Best purchase I have made in a while. Works great!!

I returned a Kitchenaid mixer because it vibrated badly. The two Cuisinart mixers I have had in the past two months along with five sets of beaters, all vibrated badly because the beater "fins" were misaligned with the shafts.

I noticed that. I think the normal price for this machine is $299 and amazon has it listed wrong. I bought it elsewhere on sale for $199 and the original price listed for it from that place was $299. Amazon has some great prices on machines but I don't think this is one of them.

We tried before, it works but the grinder has issues. We are using the machine now without the coffee grinder. I am trying to use a $150 machine for coffee machine I could have paid less $50 for. Good luck

fine to coarse, mine stopped working after a month, could not return, no repair center, after I bought the Cuisinart DBM-8 Supreme Grind Automatic Burr Mill, still works great after 6 months, spend the extra money and save your self from this grinder, its a dud...happy fathers day

The certainly look the same but I don't know which came first. What I do know is the Waring Pro ES1500 Pro is a piece of crap. It appears you don't get what you pay for with espresso/cappuccino machines. I have had a Krups that ruled over this thing, just wasn't as pretty. I still have it, still hate it.

I don't know... I called KitchenAid at their 800 number to ask the same question about my ProLine KSM5.

I bought mine for Christmas (2013) and it still works great - about 4 months with using twice daily. I have disassembled it and cleaned it and it is well built and I have had no problems with it. The only thing that could be fabricated a little better is the timer switch (it comes off sometimes) but overall, I would highly recommend this grinder.

I may have just answered this, but I've only bought the $25 grinders. Maybe the $28 one has a larger area for the salt or pepper. Its a great product

At this price it was cheaper to buy a new one. So I got two of them Black & Decker GM200 Gizmo Mixer, White" Kitchen; $15.99 The price that I put here is what I paid on 6/25/2009 and they are still working. Just looked Walmart No.: 001579448 $23.72

Sorry, but I have the KCM534, which I believe is the JavaStudio model. So, I guess I'm not sure about the KitchenAid Pro.

I've had mine for several months and it's working fine. I do clean it out on a weekly basis by rinsing out both hoppers and the removable blade and blowing out the body of the grinder. If it only worked 10 times, it might be defective. Send it back.

No idea, but a darn good question. I have not purchased the grinder yet, but am interested in doing so. This may sway my purchase.Good Luck!!

I really don't know. I've had one for over a year and use it daily for Turkish grind. An excellent product, takes some time as fine as I grind but never any problems. Only today found an electric for under $350 that might match it.
