Great mixer. Only issue is the plastic cover keeps falling down when placed in up position while mixer is on.

Good try Ooni but in my experience it doesn't replace hand kneeding.
on May 24, 2025
Posted by: Mark I.
It is generally a well built and a nice piece of kit but I'm yet to achieve the same quality of dough that I achieve with hand kneeding. You also need to be very aware of dough friction heating which makes the dough very sticky, make sure to keep dough as cool as possible.
There is evidence of flex in the main hinge when kneeding and sometimes the lid doesn't latch up properly.

Great mixer!

This mixer is amazing! No more grinding gears when I try to make a large batch of pizza dough or bagels. The gluten development is so much better than what I used to get with a traditional stand mixer and much more efficient. The mixer is easy to use and clean. There is friction caused by the rotation of the bowl and the hook that will result in dough temperature increase, but my workaround has been to put the bowl, breaker bar and hook in the refrigerator while you measure out your ingredients so the dough doesn’t overheat. I love this mixer and am so happy with it! Thank you, Ooni!!!! My Halo Pro Spiral Mixer is the best!

Looks sharp, but falls short on performance.

Despite its sharp looks, this kitchen tool falls short of my expectations.
The accessory for whipping is no competition for that of a planetary machine.
The paddle is also no match for a planetary.
The mixer does its job, but is loud whiny and clanky noise.
Looking sexy is ok, but performance is top priority.

noticable change in dough texture
on May 23, 2025

compared to the dough i made in a kitchenaid mixer the ooni is quite a bit more developed and elastic, dough rises faster, possibly due to dough heating while mixing. the final rise is about an inch more in height. love it

It’s just perfect
on May 23, 2025
Posted by: Ilona H.
The mixer is much better than what I had before. It improved the dough quality and is easy to use.
The one thing I would like to improve is buying an extra bowl. It would be faster to make the dough with 2 bowls. But when I contacted the support line the told me it’s not possible to buy a separate bowl. I wish I had that option, that’s why 4 stars for now

Can’t say enough, it’s absolutely perfect for bread dough! The more I use it, the more I love it.

Could be better!
on May 21, 2025

I feel very let down by the lack of practical advice given by Ooni. I am left trawling the internet for advice on timing & speeds to use. I have lots of unanswered questions. Do I need to adapt my usual recipes or not? If so how? Do I need to keep my Kmix for cakes & non bread baking? There were only 3 example recipes provided on your website.
I am a home cook - I bought this because I make lots of bread and my Kmix cannot handle more than 1 kilo of dough. I was going to buy an ankarsrum mixer but held back till the Halo Pro was released & opted for it instead. I do not make pizza. You seem to believe that only dedicated pizza makers would purchase this mixer. At this price point comprehensive instructions and a set of sample recipes / videos are not unreasonable expectations.
