Cuisinart Precision Master 5 5 Quart Stand Mixer, Brushed Chrome
“I cannot overstate how much I love this mixer!” another shopper says. I’ve only used it a couple of times but I absolutely love it. I read reviews and everything for every stand mixer.
Most consumers think that the Cuisinart SM-70 stand mixer works well and are quite happy with their purchase, except for a few comments about stated capacity. Both of these features are great in our books, along with the quick access to the bowl and easy changing of attachments with the tilt-head function. Which is why it’s not something I’ll be buying anytime soon, even if I didn’t have a KitchenAid stand mixer. Still, I’m glad to see what options are out there for me to consider in the future.

It mimics the shape of the bowl (vs. KitchenAid’s pointy end). This paddle worked so well mixing and incorporating all of the ingredients. You need 2 hands to tilt head back, which is a pain if one of your hands is dough-y and holding a spatula. The tilt-head moves easily, the machine is balanced , and the head won’t accidentally fall forward.
So if you stick to just 1-2 loaves of bread per mixing session it works just fine. We are confident that the cuisinart soup maker is one of the hits manufactured by the corporation. Thetwelve speeds are more than adequate , and this allows you to dial in the exact speed you need to match the thickness and consistency of your ingredients. But more importantly, the mixer does not “walk” down the countertop. and receive marketing offers and advertisements via text/SMS message to your mobile device for products, services and financing offered by Conn’s HomePlus.
This is simply fixed with a spatula, but it’s still not ideal for those recipes where you want to throw everything into a stand mixer and watch it come together. Instead of a lever control, the Cuisinart comes with a dial. This is slightly more difficult to get accustomed to than the typical KitchenAid lever control, but it’s a matter of preference, and you may even end up preferring the dial control. These dedicated attachments can be purchased separately, the attachments will turn the Cuisinart stand mixer into a citrus juicer, a meat grinder, a food processor, a blender and a pasta maker. Each new purchase of the Cuisinart stand mixer also comes with a recipe booklet and a product manual, which we understand is standard procedure for the manufacturer.
Cuisinart’s 5-quart bowls are also made of a very high quality stainless steel with handles. We love handles as they make removal, transport, and pouring so much easier, and this is a feature that you don’t always find on lower-priced stand mixers. Unlike models from other manufacturers, the bowls supplied with the SM-55 line are very easy to remove. In KitchenAid’s tilt models, they are often very difficult to detach – especially after mixing bread dough. For a higher-capacity option, the Cuisinart 7-quart mixer allows you to mix recipes with up to 15 cups of flour, while the KitchenAid Bowl Lift Professional 600 handles 12 cups in a 6-quart bowl.
