My 6 qt 'high power' Kitchen Aide having blown it's intenal breaker while mixing a double loaf of bread, I have decided it is useless. FYI the 5 qt tilt head finished the job with no trouble, the bowl is just a little small.

Who makes a decent stand mixer in the larger home use sizes, my wife won't go for a Hobart.

I have a KA but I have read good things about the Viking. Some serious money required!

I think Bosch makes a pretty reputable one.

Any one have an opinion on the 7 qt Cuisinart?

While it does have all the accessories I could want, I have all but the meat grinder as stand alones, and think I would just buy a stand alone meat grinder. I can find one for only $50 more than the accessory.

There was just a review posted by a CI person over there. I remember that she said it seemed flimsy (?) in some way...I'll look for it. It had more personal use into than any other review I'd seen. I think that Marilyn (bunny) might have one too.

Warner, I'm curious - why no Hobart? For some reason, I thought they were the best. Or, am I thinking of something else?

I can picture you with one too. Why not just start checking Craig's List, then start framing in the mixing room addition to your kitchen. :mrgreen:

While Hobart used to make small mixers, brand name of Kitchen Aide, they sold off the line awhile back.

Hobarts are huge, and are probably the best, I've already a 650 lb stove in that kitchen. If I put the Hobart in the kitchen I would have to put lolly columns in the basement or it and the stove would be in the basement. 32 quart rings a bell here.
