Then it lists "Stainless Steel Spiral Dough Hook, Stainless Steel Flat Beater, Stainless Steel Elliptical 11-Wire Whip, 8-Qt Brushed Stainless Steel Bowl with “J” Style Handle." **Q: How many horse power is in this unit and what all comes with it?** A: The specs say: "Motor = 1.3 HP; 500 Watt DC"But anyone with an engineering background knows that 1hp=745watts so It's either 1.3hp/968w or .67hp/500w. It literally can't be both, unless they are claiming peak hp which occurs for milliseconds. Basically, the spec is marketing not a spec, so we don't know unless someone has one and hooks it up to a power meter while running to stall. **Q: what is the different between KSM8990 and this ?** A: The only difference is the Bowl Guard.Regards,SantechUSA **Q: will my k5 mixer parts fit? also what about the spray of flour as there is no shield?** A: Hi Mona! I have a k6 and the parts do fit. As the spray of flour, you don't have much to worry about since the 8qt bowl is a lot taller, the bowl itself serves as a shield ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heavy Duty Transmission Well Worth the Investment! *by on Reviewed in the United States 25 February 2016* I am extremely pleased with this mixer! This our 4th KitchenAid mixer in 25 years. All of the others are still running like new - we just needed more. We wanted a heavier model for making various types of dough. Dough is the toughest thing for a mixer to mix. The commercial models have a completely redesigned transmission. I don't know exactly how the transmission has changed internally as they are now sealed and part of the motor assembly but it is now a right angle configuration. Previous models employed several gears which were prone to more rapid wear especially when making larger amounts of dough. It appears the motor is now in direct alignment/coupled with the accessory connection. The entire transmission mechanism is much simpler with fewer moving parts and the result is a significantly quieter mixer. Another benefit of this new transmission design is no leakage of grease as the mixer ages. Previous models after many years would begin to leak grease because the grease would break down and separate. This required periodic overhaul of the gear case where the old grease needed to be completely wiped out and replaced with fresh food grade grease.The mixer when running at high speed is very smooth. It depends on which attachment is being used and how well balanced it is. We purchased additional 8 quart and 5 quart "J" handle bowls designed for this mixer. The 5 quart is great for making small batches. The only thing is the bowl guard doesn't cover the gap between the top of the 5 quart bowl and the bowl guard because the dimension between the attachment tabs and the top of the bowl is much shorter. We also purchased 1 additional paddle, dough hook and wire whip available here on Amazon so we could prep or clean while another batch is in the mixer.One other major improvement is the wire whisk/whip. The design uses 11 wires configured more densely in a rectangular profile. We noticed that egg whites whipped significant faster vs our Pro 6. I think it is because the wires are positioned non-symmetrically so they are always whipping through in a different area of the ingredient being whipped.Everything that could possibly come into contact with food is made of stainless steel including the planetary and bowl guard. The attachments are significantly heavier especially the dough hook. The dough hook is not balanced and the manual warns to not run the mixer beyond speed 2. I ran a test and the mixer will wobble across the counter if it is run at high speed with the dough hook attached. The bowl guard is a great safety feature and extremely easy and non-intrusive to use. We especially like it when small kids are near the mixer when it is running. It will prevent their fingers getting inside where this stronger horsepower mixer would likely cause significant injury. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Don’t hesitate to do business..the 8QT mixer is fantastic *by on Reviewed in the United States 22 December 2018* The mixer is just like it was described. I was tentative because some of the reviews talked about thinking they were buying new mixers but when the one they ordered showed up, it was obvious it wasn’t new. SO I called customer service BEFORE I purchased anything. I was transferred to the woman that handles the KitchenAid appliances. Not only was she knowledgeable, she was sweet and answered all of my dumb questions before purchasing.I say dumb not because I’m new to KitchenAid. I wanted to first and foremost understand how they were able to sell the same mixer that was on the KitchenAid site for so much less. I came to find out that because of the volume they buy, they can offer such good prices. She entertained my questions about returns, warranty, shipping, motor size and how to read the codes on the site to determine the differences in mixers.Not new to KitchenAid at all. I have a 5 Qt mixer that after 14 years, had some gear problems. I’m going to get it fixed and use it as a spare, but because I make double and triple batches of cookies, I needed a bigger bowl. This mixer is great. It came brand spankin’ new in the box, not opened and not touched by anyone but me (LOL).As I mentioned previously, I was a tad bit concerned because of all the reviews that talked about motor noises when the machine was first turned on. Especiallly because this mixer is a bit pricy. I heald my breath, turned it on and the mixer is quiet as a mouse. No abnormal noises and works flawlessly. I was also reassured because of the great time I had talking with customer service BEFORE buying, that I was sure if I had a problem, returning, exchanging or getting my money back wouldn’t be a problem.DON”T hesitate to do business with this company. The product is just as described and no problems. Lastly, I’m a firm believer that if customer service will spend 10-15 minutes on the phone with you before you buy anything, there’s a high probability that when you do purchase, if something goes wrong, you’ll get the same level of service or more ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Un produit excellent / An excellent product *by on Reviewed in Canada 19 October 2020* Ce mélangeur est un outil très puissant et surtout très fiable pour les besoins reliés au pétrissage de pâtes lourdes.
