Artisan Mini 3.5-quart stand mixer
The same tilt-head mixer scaled down for a small kitchen. Fewer colors than the full Artisan, but the reds are the real KitchenAid reds.

Who makes it, and what to know
KitchenAid is one of Whirlpool Corporation's brands. The warranty is one year, limited. KitchenAid's choice of remedy is a replacement or a repair, and the warranty starts on the delivery date when the product is delivered. It holds 3.5 quarts against the Artisan's 5, and runs at 250 watts against 325. The links on this page go to Amazon, so delivery and returns follow the Amazon seller's terms; the warranty is KitchenAid's.
Each color link was opened and checked by a person. If one goes stale, tell us and it comes down.
Where a link earns us a commission, your price does not change. Where it earns nothing, the page says so.

What owners say
Read from the Amazon listings this page links to, on September 6, 2026. The score is Amazon’s, not ours. Quotes are short and unedited, with the link to the full review.
“KitchenAid used to be synonymous with top-quality kitchen equipment and was worth every (over-priced) penny. That's gone down the drain. This is a decent little mixer, but it just looks and feels cheap.”
“I kept waffling back-and-forth between this and a larger model specifically because all the video reviews and everything said this was appropriate for 1-2 people, but the deal is if you just bake normal things and…”
“I make pizza, baguettes, WW/seeded/artisan bread, French/Italian bread. I'm cooking for just two people.”

“Love this mixer and its smaller footprint. It’s done everything I’ve asked of it, from normal mixing to dough mixing, to making dough sheets and homemade pasta!”
“I really like the size and weight of this mixer. It is big enough for cookies and cake mixes etc but not too heavy. It performs as well as the full size mixer in my opinion.”
“Unfortunately, along with its’ mini size came a mini bowl with barely enough room to keep the ingredients inside the bowl while in use.”
“The bowl of the KitchenAid Artisan Mini 3.5-Quart Tilt-Head Stand Mixer was too small to handle standard recipes, and the overall footprint of the mixer is only a few square inches smaller than our pick”
