Pros and Cons of a Refurbished Kitchenaid Stand Mixer

admin

If you’ve ever considered buying a stand mixer, you probably know that while it’s a worthwhile investment, it can seem a bit pricey. Often a more affordable alternative to buying a new mixer is to buy a refurbished one. Refurbished Kitchenaid Stand Mixers are mixers that may have been gently used at one time, or previously had a minor fault, but have since been restored to original condition. Purchasing a refurbished Kitchenaid stand mixer can be a great way to purchase a great kitchen appliance at a more affordable price.

For many the quality of the machine is an important factor. But the refurbished stand mixer you can buy often comes with its own warranty, which is typically up to three months. So if you have problems, you can get a new one for free.

The most obvious benefit of buying a refurbished Kitchenaid mixer over a new one is the price. Refurbished models are usually much cheaper than new mixers. However, don’t assume that cheaper price means cheaper quality. Refurbished mixers may be low in price, but they can still have the same quality as a new mixer.

Another great benefit of buying a refurbished Kitchenaid stand mixer is that refurbished products are thoroughly inspected and often given additional attention to ensure all parts are working properly. Since new products are normally assumed to be in perfect working order, they may not receive as thorough an inspection.

When investing in any new equipment, both the pros and cons must be considered. While refurbished products can generate great savings, one of the potential downsides is that the warranty on a refurbished model doesn’t always last as long as it would on a new model. It is important for the buyer to obtain as much information as possible about the product and also to determine his personal priorities. If a longer warranty is most important to you, then the amount of money you save on a refurbished mixer may not seem worth it.

All in all, the benefits of buying refurbished often outweigh the negatives. However, only you can decide what is best for you. Be sure to do a lot of research on both the product itself and the seller. Once you’ve gathered all the details you need to make an informed decision, have fun shopping! Whether you choose to purchase a new or refurbished Kitchenaid stand mixer, it’s an investment you’re sure not to regret.

It’s time to stop acting like a junior

admin

I was named after my father as a child, but grew up being known as Junior.

Although my given name was unique, I didn’t particularly care because it was so different and I quickly got tired of people calling me that. I also got annoyed with those who told bad jokes at my expense.

“That’s a strange name.”

“Interestingly, I’ve never heard that name before.”

These are part of the reasons why I didn’t really advertise it as a kid.
Most people didn’t even know it existed. The friends I grew up with had no idea.

To this day, my mother, siblings, and close friends from yesteryear still call me as they have always known me.

Junior.

When I got to the end of high school, I thought maybe it was time to make a change. I had built a bit of a reputation as a character and it was hard for me to shake it off and be taken seriously.

I was about to become an adult and I thought it was important to be looked at and treated differently. I decided to fall back on the name I had spent my entire life avoiding in the summer of 1993.

I thought about how different things would be when I officially changed my name. I would instantly become a new person and others would see me differently. I was pretty excited because I thought this was my chance to start over. I felt like I was playing the real life version of the virtual 3D game Second Life. I remember the day I officially made the switch.

Nothing happened.

I felt the same. I looked the same and no matter how many times I corrected them, people still called me Junior. It was about as anticlimactic as the Spice Girls reunion.

I went through the experience and realized that I was focused on the wrong things. This helped me learn three important life lessons.

1. We have no control over how others choose to treat us.

2. We are who we are and that will never change no matter how many transformations take place.

3. What people think of us is none of our business.

These lessons helped me understand some important things about who I was and allowed my personal relationships to flourish by raising my self-esteem. My self-confidence had increased and I was able to take this forward to impact my relationships with my friends, family, and everyone who called me Junior.
