Over five decades ago KitchenAid pioneered color in the kitchen with the introduction of stand mixers in Petal Pink, Sunny Yellow, Island Green and Satin Chrome. Today, there are more than 30 colors and finishes in the stand mixer collection. Color is also found throughout the KitchenAid collection in both electric and nonelectric products such as gadgets and utensils, cutlery, bakeware and cookware.
Since the introduction of its legendary stand mixer in 1919 and first dishwasher in 1949, KitchenAid has built on the legacy of these icons to create a complete line of products designed for cooks. Today, the KitchenAid brand offers virtually every essential for the well-equipped kitchen with a collection that includes everything from countertop appliances to cookware, ranges to refrigerators, and whisks to wine cellars.
