I’ve had this about a month. Originally, I bought it for kneading sourdough (sticky). I tried the 5.5 qt first and found it too small for my needs. With this machine, I can knead 3 french bread type loaves, about 750g flour with 200g levain and 325g water. I wouldn’t push the machine past this amount. Reading the recipes in the accompanying cookbook, it says the dough is supposed to combine around the kneading paddle, which mine definitely does. I’m a little concerned about the weight of the dough ultimately breaking the kneading paddle, but time will tell.
I have never had this type stand mixer, but previously had one similar to the bosch for bread making only. I could make lots and lots of dough with that mixer, but it is finally needing replacement. This machine does not compare in capacity to such as I had, but has its own merits.
I made cookie dough twice with this and it was quite nice not to have to mix anything manually. I’ve also made piadina dough which is also sticky. I had to scrape the sides once to incorporate everything (with the dough hook), but not with the flat paddles.
All in all, if the dough hook holds up, I’m more pleased with this machine than I thought I’d be.
I have never tried the Kitchenaid pro and that’s the only other one I’m curious about camparing this machine to.
With battery-operated blenders, making cold drinks does not require a power generator anymore. The batteries are rechargeable, and the machine has a powerful motor perfect for ice crunching.
Blenders have become an essential tool in every kitchen. It can dissolve or liquify foods to aid in cooking. The first blenders manufactured were bulky and more difficult to handle. They occupy a big amount of space in the kitchen that it sacrifices having a big working area.
Furthermore, the first produced blenders only had the rudiments of blending or mixing food. It was sans the important features we take for granted today, like having multiple speed options to control the fineness or coarseness of the output.
With the advent of battery operated blenders, blenders are now lightweight and impact resistant. This means that you can basically take it wherever you go. Moreover, these blenders are now designed for larger capacities to produce more drinks in one blending.
And because of its portable design, the kitchen now looks more spacious, clean and organized. These battery operated cuisinart stand mixer blenders can sit quietly in a corner of your kitchen. Also, since these are operated with batteries, they are very convenient to use even in times of sudden power outages. And the batteries are rechargeable.
There are many new designs in the market these days, each more convenient than the last. Aside from being portable and handy, these have powerful motors convenient for ice crushing. You can now make cold drinks and fruit shakes for everyone without the need to bring along a power generator.
Here are some of the popular portable, battery-operated blenders in the market these days:

Kitchenaid or Cuisinart stand mixer?
I'm looking into finally buying a good stand mixer. I know Kitchenaid cuisinart stand mixer is great, but has anyone also used the new Cuisinart? Does anyone have good comparisons to make between the two? If I'm going to plunk down my change I'd love to get the best one possible. Thanks alot!Eileen

Having an extra mixing bowl on hand helps me to enjoy my task without first stopping to clean the bowl. The other plus is that the bowl has two handles which comes in handy for me because I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and can handle this bowl easier.

I am in love with my Cuisinart stand mixer, but wanted another bowl to reduce the need to clean up in the middle of baking. I found this bowl for $100 and more on other sites - and was thrilled to see it at Amazon for such a reasonable price. It’s the genuine item, and it came quickly. If you bake alot - especially multiple batches of the same thing - splurge on this - it will save you time!

Gonna love this time saver. As Pricey/bill said though, love amazon, but this can be had for $45+ship from Cuisinart directly (800-726-0190), Not cuisinart.com.

I love Amazon, but you can order this directly from Cuisinart delivered for $60 + $10 shipping. I have heard that if you use your stand mixer a lot, that a second mixing bowl is a good investment.

I love the meat grinder attachment to my mixer - also love the mixer and the pasta attachment too. The meat grinder does a great job - is easy to use and not that difficult to clean up. Makes great burgers and sausage too. Much better than buying it already ground in the store. Only thing is that I don’t find it cheaper so far, but then that makes me wonder what they’re using in the store for the ground meat that is so cheap!

This works like a dream!! You can make your own hamburger with security knowing no bacterian will get into the mix!
I love this grinder and can’t say enough about it.
Buy it you’ll like it!

We bought this to grind venison. The first time we used it, my mom was here and she wanted to cut off as much sinew as possible so that the grinder would not clog like hers does. She was amazed at how well it worked and the next time we just cut it into pieces and threw it in, no problems grinding at all!

I used this to make homemade sausage, because we do not like sage in our sausage. I bought pork chops, because it was on sale for $0.99 a pound. The meat grinder was so fast, it ground up one porkchop, before I got the bone cut off the next one.

Ok, I got this attachment because I wanted to make homemade, preservative free, whole wheat pasta. It works!
My prior pasta making experience is limited to rolling out by hand and cutting with a pizza cutter. (Something I would do for chicken noodle soup but too time consuming for anything much larger.) Consequently, I can’t campare it to other pasta making methods.
I have found that there has been a bit of a learning curve. Dough that is the right consistency (not too dry, not too sticky) goes through the machine easily and clean up is not too hard either. (The machine can be cleaned and put away before the pasta is done cooking.)
Is it the best way to make pasta? I don’t know. But my experience has not been as bleak as some of the poor reviews on this site. If you are willing to take a little time to learn a new trick, it might just work for you.
I like it.
