GE Profile - 7 Quart Bowl- Smart Stand Mixer with Auto Sense - Mineral Silver

We have had our new GE Profile 7qt mixer for a couple of weeks now and we absolutely love it. My girlfriend is definitely the cook of the household. She also has a lot of experience with cooking and baking thru several jobs over the years in food service industry. She says this is her favorite mixer she has ever used and is a huge upgrade to the mixer we previously had. Initial impressions after unboxing were all great. First off it’s quite heavy, feels like it weighs 50lbs. The mixer is very clean looking and the carbon black finish is gorgeous. Handling the device gives me a sense of a very precise and well build piece of equipment. I absolutely love how the surface feels. The mixing bowl itself is well designed and solid. Or old mixer was 6qts, this one is just 1 qt more but the bowl is well over twice as heavy as our old one. The way this bowl will lock into place is really solid. While my girlfriend is the one with all the baking experience, I have worked with a lot of heavy machinery and I’m am just so impressed with the precise nature of its construction. We were impressed before we even turned it on for its first use. As it was a couple of days before my 50th birthday, its first use was to make a cake. A fairly basic test for such an advanced mixer and of course it worked great. What impressed me though was how powerful the machine felt. As days went on and we used it to mix other dough and batters I couldn’t get over how…I’m not even sure of the best words to use here. Just doing basic mixing it felt more powerful, precise and clean in its movements than any mixer I’ve seen in use. Our old mixer on high speed felt like you were reaching the limits of its power. Like the difference of driving a modern EV versus an economy vehicle. Both reach the speed limit on the freeway, but one gets there quicker and smoother and never feels like you are approaching its limit. It has a very powerful and quiet motor. So it looks amazing, feels very well built and as a mixer it’s awesome. Beyond that, there are many bells and whistles. First off it comes with whisk, beater and dough hook that you see on many mixers. The attachments are solid and well build. There is a plastic cover (the only part of this mixer that doesn’t feel extremely durable) for the bowl they call a bowl shield. Excellent addition I have not seen before. My favorite feature is probably the built in scale. It’s not super precise, but certainly good enough for the ingredients (sugar, flour, etc) that use larger portions. This allows you to weigh your ingredients right in the bowl. It even connects wirelessly to a smart phone via its app. There is a really cool “guided recipes” feature to guide you thru the mixing process and it knows how much you’ve added thru the scale/app synergy. It does a great job of walking you thru step by step of the process. The auto sense tech is interesting as well. I don’t have enough experience to appreciate its value but my girlfriend said it’s awesome. It actively monitors changes in the mixers contents viscosity thru torque feedback and adjusts its speed accordingly to achieve ideal results. So all in all we love this mixer. For some the weight might be a bit of a hindrance, but if you find it a permanent spot on your kitchen counter that shouldn’t matter. Overall quality is excellent and I expect a long life from this mixer. I would absolutely recommend this mixer to a friend. Well done GE.

Awesome mixer.its heavy and tall. But it has been great at every task ive tried with it. Its awkward getting the attachments on and off

The GE Profile mixer is a formidable kitchen appliance. First the stylish look is very modern and looks good on the counter while not in use. Second when you touch it it just plain feels solid and durable. This is a beast coming in at 50lbs, but its rating for being commercial grade stands up to its claims. It comes with 11 speeds in the mixer as well as a 7Q mixing bowl. It does have some high tech integrated into it to allow you to update and control through the app. It took some time for it to connect and get setup roughly 10-15 minutes. Whats included besides the beautiful stylish base and stainless steel mixing bowl? 3 mixing attachments! They were very simple and intuitive to take off and on. So for a simple cook like myself it was easy. Additionally cleaning it was super simple as it came right off! Some highlights of this is that it has a built in scale and has easy presets to press and go through to making its use so much simpler. Days of hunting and trying to figure out what to press and how long- gone. My conclusion is that it mixed the pancake mix amazingly, super simple and was awesome. I’m excited to make some homemade dough this weekend!

I recently acquired the GE Profile 7 Quart Bowl - Smart Stand Mixer with Auto Sense, and it has quickly become a staple in my kitchen. This appliance has exceeded my expectations in several key areas, making it a remarkable addition to my culinary toolkit. First and foremost, the build quality is impressive. The mixer feels sturdy and well-constructed, which instills confidence in its longevity. It can handle even the most demanding mixing tasks without wobbling or feeling flimsy. Performance-wise, the GE mixer is a powerhouse. Its motor is robust and provides consistent, reliable power. From whipping cream to kneading bread dough, this mixer tackles a wide range of tasks with ease. I particularly appreciate the various speed settings, which allow for precise control over the mixing process, ensuring that ingredients are perfectly incorporated. What sets this mixer apart is its versatility. It comes with a selection of attachments that make it suitable for various kitchen applications. The included mixing bowl is a decent size, and the splash guard prevents messy accidents. The attachment swapping is straightforward, and the appliance itself is easy to clean. Also GE knows who the biggest competitor is in this space, therefore kitchenaid attachments are compatible with this mixer. The noise level is relatively low for a mixer of this caliber, which is a pleasant surprise. You won't have to endure an earsplitting racket while using it, making for a more pleasant cooking experience. One minor drawback is that it's slightly bulkier than some other mixers on the market, so it may require a bit more storage space. However, the overall performance more than compensates for this small inconvenience. On MAJOR drawback is that the stainless steel bowl rusted along the rim of the bowl even though the user manual stated the bowl is dishwasher safe. GE immediately sent out a replacement bowl which also rusted along the rim of the bowl after being placed in the dishwasher. Most importantly, and as a result of my testing, GE reached out and said they got in Touch with their stainless steel bowl supplier and will be changing the polishing process to make sure the bowls do not rust. I was sent a third bowl which has a higher polish finish along the rim and it has not rusted after three bouts in the dishwasher. GE is standing behind their product which is good to see! If you are having the rusting issue, reach out and they will get it squared away. In summary, the GE mixer has proven to be a reliable and versatile kitchen companion. Its impressive build, powerful motor, and range of attachments make it a fantastic addition to any home kitchen. If you're looking for a mixer that can handle a variety of tasks with ease and precision, this is a solid choice.

The GE Profile is a very capable mixer even without the Smart features, but factoring those in, it is easily the best mixer I've ever used. It is a 7 Quart Stand Mixer that comes with the mixing bowl, whisk, beater, and dough hook attachments as well as a pouring shield. It features a 540 watt brushless motor which promises lower temperature usage for extended lifespan. The standout features, however, are the "Smart" features, which come in a couple different forms. First of all, it has a built-in scale, which allows for weighing ingredients right in the bowl. Second, is Auto-sensing technology which can detect changes in texture to apply the right mixing speed and automatically stop when appropriate. And last is smart-phone connectivity, which allows you to connect to the GE Profile app, which opens up all kinds of integrations. Just to get this out of the way, as a stand-alone mixer, the GE Profile is amazing. It has more than enough power to tackle all your mixing needs. It is easy to use and is just about what you would expect from a stand mixer. It feels very well-built and I expect it to last a long time. What really makes this Mixer stand apart from the crowd is the smart features. First of all, the built-in scale is something I never knew I always needed. Adding ingredients right into the bowl and having the weight show up on the screen is just so useful. When you're done adding one ingredient, you just zero out the scale and start adding the next. It cut down on my measuring and cleanup time since I didn't need to measure out ingredients into separate little bowls or dishes. The next smart feature I was a little skeptical of, and didn't really see the use. It is the smartphone integration. I thought it would be too much hassle and not really add anything above just using recipes out of a book or something. But I was very surprised with how fun and engaging it made everything. I tested it out with a simple chocolate chip cookie recipe, which I quickly searched on the app. The app will literally walk you through step by step, and it was really easy to ffollow along. When it came time to add the ingredients, it automatically set the scale and would tell you how much you've added. When it was time to mix, it would automatically start mixing at the correct speed for the correct amount of time. It was all really impressive. And while chocolate chip cookies are very basic and you probably don't need a guided walkthrough for something like that, I am very excited to try some more complicated recipes or just new recipes I've never tried before. Consider me very impressed with something I thought wasn't going to be very useful. Overall, I am just very impressed with this mixer. Just as a mixer itself, it is very impressive and well-made and powerful. But add in those smart features and this is easily the best mixer I have ever used, and definitely the most fun. It has reinvigorated my interest in cooking/baking and I am looking forward to using it for years to come.

I'll start with what I don't like first. Our kitchen counters are generally clutter-free with very new things left out. We just built a new kitchen and one of the coolest features of our kitchen is the mixer lift cabinet. When it's time to use, open the cabinet, pull the mixer up and our with little effort and it's right at the counter with little effort. Everything is plugged in and ready to go. I knew the GE Profile mixer was heavier so I adjusted the springs on the lift to support the additional weight, placed the mixer on the lift and when I went to put it away - it didn't fit!!! It was too wide AND too tall. No amount of repositioning was gonna fix it either. I looked at how I could possibly make it work and in the constraints of our cabinets it wasn't happening. But, here's why it's going to stay. The GE Profile mixer is big and heavy because it's powerful. This is truly a monster and didn't miss a beat no matter what we tried. We use our mixer for grinding meat and our old mixer would sometimes struggle and start to smell a little hot after long sessions. The GE kept going. Time to make some dough! Using the stainless bread hook to kneed the dough, I set the mixer on the lowest speed and just let it go. I found the controls easy to use and the mixer isn't any louder (or quieter). What sets the GE mixer apart from others is the built-in scale. Admittedly, I'm a measure by volume not by weight type of casual baker. Knowing that in baking, it's preferred to weigh ingredients this will take time to adjust, but at least I don't have to buy another kitchen gadget. The GE mixer also comes with an app that you pair with your phone and it will guide you through recipes - complete with weights, speed settings and timers. It also includes a searchable recipe database to help inspire your next creation. One thing I wasn't able to find is the GE uses the same attachments so if you already have a meat grinder or pasta maker they'll still work with the GE Profile mixer. With the holiday baking season coming up I'm excited to see how this performs. I'm really disappointed that I didn't consider the size, but it's definitely replacing our other mixer that's served us well for over 20 years. Also, my wife has given me a new role in the kitchen as the "mixer lift".

The GE Profile smart mixer is a professional level mixer that combines build quality, smart functionality, and great design into to a package that's sure to please even the most strict of design critics. With the exception of two specific issues I have with the unit, it overall performs very well in a crowded market. The two issues I have with this mixer were readily apparent from my first interactions with it. For one, it's obscenely heavy, on the order of 50 pounds. Anyone looking to use this in the capacity of "I'll take out the mixer when I need it and put it away when I don't" will be severely disappointed in just how heavy it is, to the extent that my wife had issues moving it at all. If you don't have the counter space for this unit, I'd suggest you look elsewhere. My other issue with this unit was how difficult it was to pair with my phone. This, frankly, was unexpected, given the "Smart Stand" moniker attached to this blender. For whatever reason, I had a tough time getting it to connect through bluetooth. I eventually got it to connect, but it was far from straightforward, at least in my experience. With that out of the way, I'll focus on the positives (and boy there are a lot). Weight aside, the build quality of the main unit and accessories are all great, and relatively easy to clean. To go along with that, the power this mixer has is frankly surprising sometimes. Not once did I have a hint of slowdown, likely owing to the power DC motor. Finally, the smarts on tap here really add to the experience of using the GE Profile mixer. So far, my favorite feature is the built in scale which allows to you to hyper accurately get the mix you're looking for. This works especially well in conjunction with the recipes available in the app, which walk you through the entire process in an easy to understand way. If you're looking for inspiration to use your new mixer, the app has it. Overall, this is a great mixer. The power and build quality give this a feel unlike other mixers I've tried, and the Smarts do truly add something here that's useful. If you want one of the best mixers on the market, consider the GE Profile Smart Mixer.

The GE Profile Smart Mixer with Auto Sense is an innovative, new take on the seemingly timeless kitchen mixer. I know one name comes to mind with kitchen mixers but GE has improved upon what is usually a fairly basic kitchen device. The Profile mixer features a large 7-qt capacity bowl, an integrated wrap around bowl lift, built in scale, 3 included quick release mixing attachments, and an accessory port for third party attachments. The first thing to note with this mixer is the size. At 17” high, 14” deep, 11” wide, and a hefty 44 lbs, it will likely need a semi permanent spot in your home. Though the size may be expected for a mixer of this capacity, unfortunately our upper cabinetry in our current home limits placement and it is something to keep in mind before purchasing. Once you setup the device and connect it to the GE SmartHQ app, you can then utilize some of the smart functionality such as Auto Sense. With the provided guided recipes or Auto Sense techniques you can send mixing instructions to the mixer to not only set the speed and duration but it will use feedback from the motor to determine the proper texture and viscosity, impressive! Currently you are limited to the recipes and techniques in the app to utilize this but GE claims to expand on this overtime. Making your own way is still possible and yielded great results as we did with our pumpkin bars or my wife’s chocolate banana bread, a family favorite. The mixer can even weigh ingredients in the mixing bowl as you go or other vessels by placing them on the base. The mixer also has a built-in timer functionality that is thankfully not tied to the app for ease of use out of the box. Though the quick release mixing attachments were a breeze to use, this interface is currently limited to the included beater, hook, and whisk. GE claims they are commercial grade and dishwasher safe, which they are well made and should last the life of the mixer. Though I like the features and functionality of the Profile Smart mixer, I do wish GE offered a slightly smaller model as we tend to not need the large 7-qt capacity. With kitchen mixers, one brand has become ubiquitous to most homes but the GE Profile Smart Mixer stands out with its new intelligent integrations and also practical innovations making it a great choice.

Growing up, I remember the holidays and having my mother whip up some mashed potatoes with the help of her trusty mixer. She would use the mixer often with many baking needs. However, the GE Smart Stand Mixer with Auto Sense is nothing like my mother’s old mixer. This is the mixer to end all mixers. When you pick up the box (if you can pick up the box), you can tell this is not a normal mixer. This thing is heavy. The box probably weighs nearly forty pounds. While it is quite sturdily made and durable enough to handle any kitchen job, it could be dangerous if you dropped it on yourself, your small child, or a pet. With all of that aside, this is built to last. The GE Smart Mixer is amazing. Setting it up is a little more time consuming than most mixers. One of the obvious this is connecting it to the Smart HQ app. It takes about 10 minutes to set it up, but it is well worth it. With the app, I can control this mixer (or other compatible appliances); however, I have become a much better chef than I would be without it. The app contains many recipes that I never would have thought of otherwise. And without this mixer, I doubt I would even be able to make any of these recipes. Mixing things in a bowl with brute force and a spoon or even a handheld mixer is no comparison to this device. This has become my go to baking assistant. The features available on this device make it a must for any serious kitchen. First off, the mixer can weigh your ingredients. This makes for perfect proportions in your recipes. The step-by-step guide makes sure that your mixes come out consistent and correct each time. The mixer also has a timer you can use to make sure you mix for the exact amount of time required. I think my favorite feature is the auto sense technology. This feature allows the mixer to sense how much the ingredients are mixed. It makes sure the viscosity is consistent throughout the batter. If you need it smooth and runny, the mixer will mix it down to the thickness you need. It is perfect. There is even a nice, clear display for feedback on what you are doing. Like I mentioned earlier, this mixer is built to last. All the parts are solid and well put together. The stainless-steel removable parts are dishwasher safe. The brushless motor is made to run at extended periods of time without overheating. This mixer is solid enough to use for everyday baking. While I wouldn’t start a cookie business baking hundreds of cookies a day, week after week, year after year, this will handle any baking needs in the home. As far as performance goes, this is the best and most capable mixer built for the home that I have ever used. However, I could see a couple of potential issues with it. As stated, this mixer is quite heavy. It is also roughly 18 inches tall. If you have counter overhang, you may need to check and see if you have space to place it on a counter for use. Also, if you plan to store the mixer when it is not in use, you may need to check and see if it will fit in your cabinets or other area. In the end, I can not say enough good things about this mixer. It has made me a much better cook than I could have imagined. If you want to get the most out of your cooking and baking, I highly recommend the GE Smart Stand Mixer with Auto Sense. It may be the best mixer for the home out today.
