I’m looking for stand mixer recommendations. I am largely assuming that this will need to be a vintage purchase. I have heard that basically all stand mixers on the market these days are crap; including some horror stories of very high end Cuisinarts with stripped and or plastic gears. I tend to be very rough on my appliances, so durability and repair ability are a priority. That said, it wouldn’t be a daily use thing, I live alone and would only be baking for myself.

Ankarsrum. Truly BIFL.
Kitchen Aid is trash these days. I burned up an Artisan, rebuilt it, burned it up again, bought a pro-line, was well on my way to killing it, retired it to backup duty and bought an Ankarsrum. Couldn’t be happier.
Nobody even considers Cuisinart when talking stand mixers.
