I didn’t actually buy it, but I have a kitchen aid mixer that was a wedding gift to my parents, 6 or 8 years before I was born. I’m 36.
I also have some of my grandfather’s power tools that work fine despite being 40+ years old (tho I’m terrified every time I use them - the cords attach to the mechanicals with screws, and there are no failsafes - I don’t use them enough to spend hundreds on new ones)
All the stuff I “bought for life” myself has failed to live up to the hype. They really don’t make shit the way the used to.

I hear ya. The KitchenAid stand mixers are still tanks though. I have one that's a couple years old. I abuse it a lot. It cares not.

Hobart KitchenAid mixers are tanks. Everything made after Hobart sold KitchenAid to Whirlpool is crap in comparison.

Nonsense. I drive my Whirlpool Kitchenaid hard and I’ve never had an issue. But they are still easy to repair. And still made in Ohio. Besides some tweaks, there’s not that much difference.

Wait, are you the 8-bit guy, from the 8-Bit Guy YouTube channel?

Ours trips it's breaker occasionally while mixing dough. It's kind of annoying, but not enough to replace it.

I have my grandma's kitchen aide stand mixer that's way older than I am and it's still perfect.
