Save Cuisinart SM-55BC 5-1/2-Quart 12-Speed Stand Mixer, Brushed Chrome
I bought the Cuisinart when Save On Foods in Canada had it listed in their points catalogue, so getting it on points was the first draw. I had always intended to buy a Kitchen Aid stand mixer, but when I saw that the Cuisinart had 800W of power that was the second draw. It's a nice size, fits perfectly in my appliance garage on the counter. I do a fair bit of bread baking and making pasta dough, which is an especially dense dough. The Cuisinart manages both without difficulty. I do find that you need to scrape the bottom of the bowl periodically when you're working with other batter type doughs to make sure that all the ingredients are incorporating. I bought the pasta attachment, and love it, as well as the meat grinder. I find the blender attachment also handy, especially when you have to blench or puree something before adding it to the dough. I also have the food processor attachment. My one complaint with the blender and the food processor attachment is the decibel level. I haven't had a chance to test it with a sound meter, but I seriously wear ear plugs to prevent hearing loss because at speed 12, the sound is as loud as going into an industrial worksite. I can't think of why Cuisinart didn't get that figured out in their testing before marketing these two items. If I get the chance to measure the decibels with a sound meter at some point, I'll post the results here. Apart from these two items, the stand mixer itself has been an awesome addition to my small appliance collection and now outranks the Cuisinart Griddler as my favorite small appliance.Buy Cuisinart SM 55 Lowest Price, Order Now!
