Really worth the investment. The timer, light and RPM dial is very handy. I use this machine for my dough needs. I own two. One for my Northern location and another for my southern home.
This spiral mixer cuts down the time it takes to mix and "knead" the dough. It completes both these tasks in as little as 15 mins, so one can start bulk fermentation right away. Stretch and folds can take up to 2 hours to complete, and manual kneading is not an option because of my arthritic hands. This thing produces a terrific dough in just a few minutes and with only one stretch and fold needed.
Very impressed with the Ooni Halo, having used a Kitchen Aid for far too long, has introduced a whole new level to my dough and sourdough. I cannot fault it and still learning about timings and speed for the dough. This Mixer will catch on with serious home bakers - what is needed is a dedicated book from a recognised UK baker, for example Richard Bertinet, as to how best use the mixer for making bread.
Great. Does what you'd expect, and does it well. Great dough. One thing to remember - there is a minimum recommended amount of dough per mix. If you try to mix below this the dough will end up stuck around the spiral dough hook and the breaker bar becomes obsolete.
I absolutely love this fine piece of machinery. Whether it's a single or quadruple batch of sourdough bread, standard or thick-batter inclusion cookies, butter cream icing or a meringue, this beauty tackles it all with ease. And it doesn't take near as much counter space as my Kitchenaid did, plus it outperforms the Kitchenaid tenfold. Definitely worth the money.
