Mixers

Prior to purchasing a mixer I spoke with people from local businesses to find out which mixer that had chosen, and for the most part two brands were in the majority. They were Hobart and Viking. Hobart was well out of my price range so my choice was evident. After using the Viking mixer it is obviously the perfect choice. The mixer is sleek looking, but muscular at work. It has cut mixing time because of the efficient design. Price comaprison for other 5 quart brand mixers is similar but the motor rating on the Viking is much higher which hopefully will make the Viking last much longer. I am thoroughly satisfied with the Viking 5 quart mixer."..."  Read more

Weve had this mixer for about 5 years, and it is fantastic! With the metal gears you dont have to worry about it stripping like the nylon gears in other mixers, and the optional accessories are easy to use as well. This mixer is great for everything from bread to royal icing. I love the stainless steel bowl, the handle is so convenient! My only regret is that I didnt buy a second bowl from the start."..."  Read more

Back in forth. kitchenaide or Cuisinart for many months. Chose this mixer because of style, the location on top for optional attachments, folding button, Teflon coated paddle, and dough hook, and 800 watt motor and price. I really like this mixer. No problems at all. It is stable yet not too heavy. ESP like the splash guard compared to KA. I made the right decision. Also my old mixer had a juicer 1943 sunbeam mixmaster, which I use weekly. KA has no juicer attachment and Cuisinart does have a juicer attachment. con. Why not have a blender attachment?"..."  Read more
