One of the most common and popular brands of household mixers is KitchenAid. Their lineup of stand mixers is legendary and they have established their place on North American countertops with decades of outstanding service. High-end KitchenAid models feature a five-year warranty, but standard and entry-level models are only warranted for one year of trouble-free use. So what are you to do if, after investing considerable money, your KitchenAid mixer develops a serious problem? River City Appliance of Sacramento is here to help!
Flat Rate Repairs for KitchenAid Mixers
At this time, River City Appliance does not provide warranty service for KitchenAid mixers, but we do offer a flat rate labor cost (plus the price of any necessary parts) to repair your broken stand mixer that is out of warranty. This provides you with a number of benefits. First, you know that no matter what the problem, your labor charge will be reasonable. Second, River City Appliance does our best to keep parts costs low so that your repair will be affordable. After all, we want our clients to be satisfied with our service!
Here are the most common reasons why customers bring in their KitchenAid mixers to the office of River City Appliance:
- Noisy motors are caused by loose parts or gear lubricant past its lifespan. Our River City Appliance technicians check to ensure that all parts are fastened to the proper torque settings and that the mixer lubricants are providing optimum performance.
- Leaking oil is also caused by failing lubricants. Old grease separates into lighter and heavier components. Lighter oil then oozes between rubber seals, especially if those seals are worn and cracked. Replacing aged gaskets, seals, and lubricant restores your KitchenAid mixer to duty. (Know that all KitchenAid mixer lubricants are food-grade to guarantee the safety of your family, friends, or customers.)
- Overheating motors can be caused by thick ingredients. If it happens often, you may simply need to upgrade your mixer to one with a stronger motor. If your KitchenAid mixer overheats even with simple or light jobs, you may have a faulty motor, failing circuitry, or worn-out lubricant. River City Appliance can test your mixer and diagnose the problem before providing a recommendation for service or replacement of your KitchenAid mixer.
For any of these problems and many others, drop off your KitchenAid mixer with our technicians at River City Appliance. We will diagnose the problem, provide a parts estimate, and complete the work to your satisfaction.
