I have proposed the idea of buying the fiancee a standing mixer for our anniversary gift.
I am considering the Kitchenaid Pro 600 series or their Pro Line 7 qt model.

Pro line 7 qt: https://www.kitchenaid.com/countert...rt-bowl-lift-stand-mixer.ksm7586pca.html
She plans to use it several times a month and I would prefer to buy something that will last a while. It appears that the Pro Line model has a stronger motor, possibly all metal construction and the 5-yr warranty. The refurb one only has a 6 month warranty. The price difference is staggering though.
Both models have been out for 5+ years.
What do you guys recommend?
