It looks nice. Feels solid. I believe it is louder than the KitchenAid I heard recently. But if it lasts, the three-year warranty makes it a better deal.

You dodged a bullet; the kitchen aid had underwent design change since 1998 and no longer use the same mechanism as it did before and constantly breaks. I threw mine out and replaced with cuisineart which still has the similar internal design as the old kitchenaid

Someone else said the mixer head wobbling is a safety issue, for heavier doughs. Good review, thanks, and I see the price for these is half (or less than that) of the KA Artisans. I like the fact they use the spring on the shaft to secure the attachments, unlike how some KAs clank. Thanks for reviewing!

Iam considering this for my stand mixer. I think it will be well for my needs and your video helped me decide. Are the attachments all metal hard to see??? TY I liked this because of a bowl with a handle.

How safe are the coated dough hook and mixer? Does the coating rub off after much use? One of my reasons for looking into this one is that KA comes with burnished aluminum. Like who wants aluminum in their food prep anymore?

I'm wondering if anyone knows what size screwdriver works to adjust the tilt head. This is a really good mixer and am learning how to make this adjustment. Thank you for this excellent review.

Are the accessories such as the hook for kneading and whipping made of stainless steel or aluminum?

If you ever get it, take 2 minutes & look at my little video explaining how to make the tools ( dough hooks, whisk, beater ) go lower. The screw to do so, to adjust the height can be very tough to turn & you may cause it to strip. That screw is factory sealed & can be, for some, a bit too high from the bottom of the bowl.

But now I see that it is literally locked for the first try when you first get it.

Hi; I'm getting really frustrated that after adjusting the screw (for height) the flat paddle attachment (that I use most) doesn't reach the bottom of the bowl but the whisk does and in fact scrapes the bowl!! So I either have a whisk that is too low or a paddle that is too high!! What a terrible design!

That can happen with any mixer. I've seen reviews for KitchenAid, Kenwood, Smeg and all had to have the bowls scraped. I have a KitchenAid mixer, and I have to scrape the bowl, too. Regardless of how close the beater gets to the bowl, there will be some ingredients that don't get mixed, unless a person is using a flex-edge beater. From what I've seen of the Cuisinart mixer, it does a good job, generally speaking. Don't give up on it, as I think you will get to like it very much.

It seems considerably quieter than the artisan.
