Inflation is impacting all of us. Our grocery bills are higher, filling up our gas tanks is anxiety-inducing, and trying to bounce back from over 2 years of dealing with the pandemic has taken its toll on all of our mental health. We are trying to help in our own Brad’s Deals way by sharing some budget-friendly alternatives to popular (and expensive) products.
We’ve already covered the Instant Pot, the Roomba, and the Keurig, and now, the KitchenAid Stand Mixer!
Our hope is to provide you with a list of ‘Plan B’ options if your favorite items are just not in your budget right now. If you’re hoping to snag a stand mixer, here are our picks for the best alternatives to KitchenAid.
Note that at the time of posting these prices were accurate, but due to sales, inflation, and Amazon’s dynamic pricing, the prices are fluctuating often. We’ll do our best to keep this up to date, but some prices may vary.

KitchenAid Stand Mixer Alternatives
KitchenAid Stand Mixers have been a fan favorite for as long as we can remember and we’re sure some of you still wish you could add one to your kitchen. While we aren’t sure yet if there will be any stock issues, we do wonder if the prices won’t be as low this year. These kitchen wonders are already pretty expensive, so we’ve got some high-quality KitchenAid stand mixer alternatives that are a little more affordable and still get the job done.
For this post, we’re comparing each of these mixers to the 4.5-Quart Classic Mixer. This is the model that retailers discount most often and so we’ll be taking into account its size, power, and features when comparing each of the mixers below. For Black Friday, the lowest prices of the year, we usually see this KitchenAid model on sale for $180. With inflation, we don’t think it will drop that low at all this year. If you have your heart set on a KitchenAid, try to find this model under $290 for a deal in the current market.
Aucma 6-Speed 7.4-Qt. Stand Mixer – $135
This is a great alternative option! With a bigger bowl capacity and more powerful motor, a $120 price point is hard to beat. It also has quite a few color options to choose from whereas the KitchenAid Classic has 2.

We found this one for the lowest price from a reputable seller at Amazon. It is sold by the official Aucma store and shipped by Amazon. As of this posting, the price is $119.99 in the black color option and $115.99 for red.
Hamilton Beach 7-Speed Stand Mixer – $110
This is a fan favorite among home cooks. The bowl capacity is slightly smaller than KitchenAid, but the motor is relatively similar and it comes in several color options. It also comes with the same accessories as the KitchenAid Classic, a flat beater, dough hook, and whisk.

To get the most color options from a trusted seller for the $120 price, we suggest checking this one out at Walmart. You can snag the red colorway for $108 right now as well! Amazon also has this model available, but from various sellers in different colors.
Dash Delish Stand Mixer – $64
This compact little mixer is great if you don’t have a ton of storage space or need to store this away in a cupboard when it isn’t in use. The bowl capacity is slightly smaller and it only comes in black, but the motor is similar to the KitchenAid and it comes with 2 beaters and 2 dough hooks.

Hamilton Beach Classic Stand and Hand Mixer – $40
Another Hamilton Beach option, this mixer is both a stand mixer and a hand mixer. The versatility of being two gadgets in one at a $40 price point makes this a steal. The motor power and mixing bowl capacity are similar to the KitchenAid and it also comes in 2 color options.
KitchenAid Comparison
| Feature | KitchenAid | Hamilton Beach |
| Mixing Speeds | 10 | 6 |

If you don’t mind having only one color option, red, then Walmart is the place to go! This mixer is just $56.06 for red or $52.99 for black right now at Walmart.
Frigidaire Retro Stand Mixer – From $60
This is a very close comparison to the KitchenAid mixer and has a sweet, retro look to it. The mixing bowl is nearly exactly the same size, it comes in 5 color options, and the motor power is slightly more powerful than the KitchenAid.
KitchenAid Comparison
| Feature | KitchenAid | Frigidaire |
| Mixing Speeds | 10 | 8 |
| Bowl Capacity | 4.5 quart | 4.8 quart |
| Motor Power | 275 watt | 300 watt |

| Color Options | 2 | 5 |
Where to shop
Your best bet for this retro-style mixer is Amazon. They have the lowest prices we’ve seen, with the blue color option at $80.10. The other colors are $90, but that’s still a fraction of the price of a classic KitchenAid.
