Strong mixer works well for mixing sourdough bread

At our house, we almost always eat home made sourdough bread made with mostly whole wheat flour, often with a bit of white flour and other grains mixed in. So when my large mixer bit the dust, making bread became more difficult. First I shopped for a new large mixer. But as I noticed how nice it was to have more counter space without a great big heavy mixer sitting there, I looked at smaller, hand mixers. I needed one that had a powerful motor, but that would start slowly, so as not to shoot flour and other ingredients out of the bowl in which I was mixing. After many days of research, I picked this one by Cuisinart. Reading many reviews, I found that this one had fewer difficulties listed. and more advantages. Now that I have used it for mixing sourdough, I'm really glad I did. The dough hooks have a much better design than other hand mixers, and that plus the power of the motor make this mixer take on the job of mixing sourdough almost as well as my old stand mixer did.

This was a replacement for a 20+ yr old Cuisinart hand mixer that worked but was a bit tired so I have high expectations. Just used it for an easy cake mix and it worked fine, but was a bit noisy and it seems to start abruptly, rather than the gentle start of my older mixer so it scattered the dry mix all over. Hope it continues to work ok.

I like the beaters with no center post. The mixer is easy to maneuver and is light enough that my arms don't get tired. It plowed through some dense cookie dough easily. When I switch it on, it takes a second to respond, but I've gotten used to this just fine. I really like that when it starts it starts slowly (unlike my old mixer that had only two speeds, no matter what I selected - fast and what a mess). I also like the swivel cord. So far, I'm totally satisfied.
I would recommend this to a friend!

My goal when I bought this mixer was a slower low speed to allow more control. That is the best feature of the mixer. I can't give 5 stars because the new thin wire beaters don't cream butter as well as the older type beater. The new ones act more like a will. I'd recommend it with that one reservation.

I like the mixer but not sure if it's working properly. When it starts up it's on a high
speed, then slows down. Is this how it's supposed to work?

I dont like how the power cord is set up. I have problems when trying to stand the mixer up the cord gets in the way n the mixer falls over. It has knocked over the bowl making a huge mess.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

A touch awkward to grasp for a person with arthritis in the hands. The beater release button is oddly placed. Otherwise, it is of the usual Cuisinart quality.

The mixer works ok. I find that the beaters are thin and do not mix as well. The consistency of the batter is lumpy
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
