We bought the Cuisinart, after much research and comparisons in-store. It is certainly lighter than Kichenaid, but the design space and power than compensate. We have several (very heavy) rolls not without problems. The mixer is strong enough and I never noticed the problem "wobble" that others talk about. I like the fact that the bowl is much easier to remove than the Kichenaid because the groove-based design (try the shop and see what I mean). Overall we are very pleased w / the purchase and look forward to many good years of use.

Banana Bread: with butter, sugar, eggs, flour and bananas are mixed, without having to stop and scrape the bowl. beaterblade + ® works with kitchenaid blenders, Cuisinart ®, Viking ® blender and delivers virtually hands free mixing.

I fell on the mixer Artisan renewed after the bid on ebay twice for a new classic model. When I saw that the price of the Artisan has been restored only 139 dollars, and I fainted. After reading a bunch of early reviews and convince me that they are mixing, I bit 'because I was afraid that the price would jump. Indeed, he went the next day for $ 239! I can not help but think that has benefited a typo, as poor!

Link to all my videos: www.youtube.com I have 3 cake orders in the past week and used the Beater Blade for all of them with much success. I originally wanted the casting of the right side of the mixer (although the package says, left) out of habit and had to fly flour. Later that night when I put my butter cream, I try from the left side and everything went better. Besides cutting my mixing time, almost half, I noticed my two cake batters and buttercream was much smoother, without clumpsand not accumulate on the floor! The Beater Blade is definitely a must if you are any kind of shoes on a regular basis:) Here is a link to their website: www.beaterblade.com music from the film Paradise Road.
