This is the most powerful Kitchen Aid I have ever used and it works awesome. I do wish the top tipped up like the other models, but that is the only thing I would change.
Is the Cuisinart 7 qt. mixer a good quality mixer?
I'm looking to buy a new mixer. I've been using my Mother's standard 4 qt. Kitchenaid mixer for about 5 kitchenaid 6 qt mixer yrs, it's 25 years old and still going strong, but I need a bigger mixing bowl. As I was doing my pricing research on the Kitchenaid 6 qt. bowl lift model, I found that Cuisinart has a 7 qt. bowl, which excited me. Does anyone own one and are they worth the money. Your reviews will be very helpful!!!

Ordered the SideSwipe after seeing it reviewed on TV. It works great. I didn’t have to scrape the sides of the bowl at all. Worked so well I’ve already told all of my friends that have a KitchenAid Mixer that this is a “Must Have”
works well especially with thick batters! love it, but am not sure why KitchenAid doesn’t endorse it. Jealousy cause they didn’t think of it first????
So I had the BeaterBlade for my 5 qt tilt-head mixer and loved it. Bought it for my new 6 qt Proline lift bowl model… and it just about knocked the bowl off its perch. Returned it, and decided to try the SideSwipe because I really enjoyed not having to scrape the bowl of my previous mixer. It still knocked the bowl a bit, but I just took a pair of scissors and trimmed down the little fingers by a couple millimeters, and now I’m perfectly happy with it. I actually like it better than the BeaterBlade because it doesn’t fling ingredients out of the bowl. You do have to scrape in between the fingers of the SideSwipe afterward, but I’m ok with that. Mostly because it means I get to eat a large portion of the cookie dough or cake batter stuck to it.
Related to the scraping the beater issues, I’ve noticed that some batters tend to clump around the lower midline of the beater, in the little cavity above the fingers but below the circle. Usually this goes away simply by increasing the mixing speed. If not, all it takes is one good poke with a spatula to break up the glob, and it all gets mixed in.
This is the greatest for those that have kitchenaids. It works so quick on batters. It only takes 5 turns around the bowl to have the brownies mixed up. And no more stopping half way through to scrape the bowl or the little bit in the bottom that never gets touched by the other beaters. Everyone should own one.
