KPES100 specifications

The KitchenAid KPES100 is a sophisticated kitchen appliance designed for those who appreciate the art of cooking and the efficiency of modern technology. This electric stand mixer combines style, durability, and functionality, making it a staple in any culinary space.

One of the standout features of the KPES100 is its powerful 1.3 horsepower motor, which delivers impressive mixing performance to handle a variety of tasks.

Included with the mixer are several attachments, including a dough hook, a wire whip, and a flat beater, allowing users to tackle a wide range of recipes right out of the box.
