The KitchenAid KSM180 is a Design Series 5-quart tilt-head stand mixer featuring premium finish options and design-forward aesthetics. It shares the same 325-watt motor, 10-speed planetary drive, and internal components as the Artisan KSM150PS — all mechanical and electrical repair parts are interchangeable.
