“This mixer does what it says it will do! I’m very pleased. I purchased a grain mill and knew my KA would not be up to the task of kneading my bread dough. I have physical limitations (back and hands) and am unable to knead dough so needed to find a machine that could AND reasonably priced. The Artiste had great reviews and was even on sale so I purchased one. It is easy to clean and kneads bread dough in no time at all! This machine is powerful and a work horse! It comes with a lid too that opens half way. The motor is on the bottom of the machine so I love that I can put my ingredients in from the top with no interference! Did I mention that I’m 70? With my limitations it is very user friendly if you will and not too heavy at all if I need to move it. If anything the worst part is the suction cups on the bottom holding it in place! This gal doesn’t dance at all! I really think you’d be happy with your purchase. I sure am!”
