I owned a KA for almost 30 years and it finally gave out. So I started researching different stand mixers wanting to maximize my money. Reading reviews and comparing specifications and costs, The Cuisinart SM 50 seemed to be a great choice. More power than other comparable brands, a 3 year warranty, and a pleasing appearance. I admit I had some apprehension but figured if the mixer did not meet my expectations I could return it. The mixer arrived in just a few days time securely wrapped in a foamy container in original box then a packing box. All parts were included, the mixer was not marred and in perfect condition. I chose black because my appliances are black and it’s a beautiful ebony color. I bake and cook different ethnic foods frequently so a good performing stand mixer is essential. Performance-wise, again it met my expectations. First trial run was a batch of brownies. Although there are complaints about having to scrape down underneath and along the sides, I did not have any issues. I have grown used to scraping my KA underneath any batters and along the sides for over 30 years. I was pleasantly surprised to find a lot less dried ingredients along the sides of my Cusinart bowl, and it was all mixed in at the bottom. So a few scrapes along the sides that only took seconds to do, gave me a nice batter. I love the lock on the Cusinart when you need to put the head up. If you’ve ever had a very heavy mixer head come down on your hand while scraping down the sides of the bowl, you would understand why. Yes, this happened more than once with my old mixer. My favorite part of the Cusinart SM 50 is the dial. I find this to be so much easier to use than a lever. I can control the speeds easier on this mixer and not end up with dry ingredients all over me and my counter. The slow speed definitely was slower than my old mixer which gave the dry ingredients a chance to mix together stay “in” the bowl. One thing I learned with my old mixer is when doing small preparations like mixing butter and sugar together. I use softened butter and the whisk attachment. You see, Many of the complaints in the reviews are not unique to the Cusinart, the major other stand mixer has the same issues. With experience you learn workarounds with any mixer. My second test run was making Russian breads. In this case the performance of the Cusinart was outstanding. My old mixer would knock on the cupboard while kneading the dough and often times the dough wound up to the attachment and bottom of my mixer. So I would have to stop a few times, to get the dough off the spring, and ended up hand kneading the dough the rest of the time. I’m happy to say with the Cusinart it stayed on my cupboard without knocking around, and the dough did not wind up towards the top of the attachment. As another reviewer wrote, the bread dough on the sides of your mixer and underneath will all knead and pull together, if you just give it some time. My Cuisinart is well built, easier to control, heavy but lighter than KA, and outperforms my old mixer. I’m very pleased with my purchase.
I was excited to get my mixer on Christmas Eve and I made cake and sweet rolls the same day with it. I make tons of bread for my family and found my smaller mixer throwing dough over the sides because it couldn’t handle the recipe and I always cut them in half. This one allows me to make whole recipes and it’s 500 Watt Motor can handle my baking all day long. Plus I love the teal color.
Had a Kitchen Aide for over 25yrs. I am a pastry chef/baker and it got a work out. Saw Cuisinart mixer and price was good as well as features. Very happy with purchase. Have baked a few things and mixer was spot on. Thank you Wayfair!
This is by far the best stand mixer I've ever used. It's well built, and all components are of high grade material. I think it's better than KitchenAid, especially for the price. I would recommend this mixer to anyone. You won't be disappointed. This was an early Christmas gift to myself, and it's money well spent.
I am IN LOVE with this stand mixer! The quality is superb! Heavy, durable, steel, quiet, 12 speed. Perfect appliance to have in the kitchen! You will not regret getting! The price you pay for the quality you receive is a bargain!
Love love love my mixer! Just made our favorite desert, the dough is hard to kneed by hand but my new mixer did it in 3 minutes. You then roll the dough very thin, cut up, twist and fry, followed by powdered sugar. Picture of the finished product included. Yummy. Very happy with my purchase
Omg! My Cuisinart stand mixer came yesterday, it is more wonderful than I could imagine and so very heavy. I can not wait to use it, love that it came with a splash guard lid and attatchments. I have had 2 standmixers in the past, both hand me downs that both died on me in the middle of mixing something, I now will not have to worry about that happening again. This is easily equal to a professional stand mixer in a restaraunt!!! Just a fabulous purchase and the price is too, love the color choices, I chose the beautiful blue!!
Love love love this mixer! I have had the one that cost over twice the amount of this one and it was not as user friendly. I love that this mixer has a light that lights up the speed dial and the easy push button to lift the head of the mixer. Also, it is not annoyingly loud on high speeds. You will still be able to talk, answer the phone or just not annoy those watching TV while you bake. Love the light blue!
Made first cake today. The mixer is very quiet. It took me a while to insert mixing paddle...love the color and goes very well with my kitchen...can’t wait to make my 7 up pound cake. Mixer arrived on time and packaging was good....
I like it. Made some really nice pie crust this weekend. I felt that I got good value for my money
