Advice about mix masters

I have been using my mother's ancient Hamilton Beach stand mixmaster, which I love. Unfortunately, I wrecked the beaters. There is no way to replace them so I need advice on which stand mixmaster to buy. I love to bake so I'm willing to invest in a good one. Recs, pls?

    There is a lot of previous information on this topic on this site and I'm sure you'll get some input from others.

    I bought my wife the KitchenAid Pro 600. I used some credit card points for a couple Bed, Bath & Beyond gift cards and got it was it was on sale there.

    It seemed to be a lot of machine. However, now that we've made bread and pizza dough, it breezes through this. It handles all her cookies like nothing. The only attachment we've bought is the ice cream maker. It was for our 13 yr daughter but now we all love the homemade ice cream. It is off he charts good.
