A stand mixer may be the “best kitchen aid,” but you can make it even better by investing in the right accessories. One that we think everybody should buy is the pouring shield that attaches to the rim of your bowl. It includes a helpful funnel to add ingredients and prevents spillage.

Target's Black Friday deal event ends this Saturday, so interested shoppers should look into claiming their discounted KitchenAid mixers as soon as possible. KitchenAid fans can also score huge savings on stand mixers and other kitchen supplies directly from the brand for Black Friday.

We rated KitchenAid’s mini stand mixer the best compact stand mixer on the market. It’s currently $100 off as part of early Amazon Black Friday deals.
