The KitchenAid KSM75 is the Classic Plus 4.5-quart tilt-head stand mixer — a step up from the K45SS with a slightly more powerful 300-watt motor and additional color options. It shares the same planetary drive, worm gear, and bowl platform as the K45SS, making parts widely interchangeable across the Classic Series.

The KSM75 uses the same worm gear, carbon brushes, speed control board, and 4.5-quart bowl as the K45SS. The motor is rated at 300 watts vs the K45SS's 275 watts, but the motor brushes and speed board are the same part numbers. Cross-reference K45SS parts when searching for KSM75 components.
