It's lovely to have for cake batter, whipped cream, and egg whites, but even though it comes with a bread hook, it can't handle bread dough. After a few minutes of kneading, the whole top starts to bounce and shake, and I have to stand and hold it down. If the dough is stiff, it then overheats. Most likely the next size up works fine, but I can't afford to upgrade.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Made pasta dough for raviolis. Saved me a great amount of time and were delicious. Looking forward to making sausage
The first time I used this 5 quart mixer it was shaky. Watched the manufacturer's video on how to fix it, followed the instructions, and it works perfectly. My only frustration is with the bowl, it's grooves to steady it on the platform are not deep enough on one part and do not hold the bowl steady while kneading the pizza dough (recipe in the product information guide.) I will likely contact the manufacturer regarding this.
it makes me happy looking at the light pink color every morn

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have the light pink model.The color makes me happy every day. Baking is so easy now. I experiment and bake more than I dreamed I would. It cleans up easy, cuts down mixing time and is truly a "vision of art" on my kitchen counter. Make the splurge and purchase this mixer.
Pros: Performance, Convenient Features, easy to use
We got this a month ago and I find things to bake just to use it. It is so great and makes baking too easy. Well worth the buy.
I would recommend this to a friend!
