Heavy metal
For you bakers out there what machines do you use to mix and knead the dough? What are your experiences with machines you have used and would you recommend them?

I have an old westbend that I still like. My mom still shames me for not using my hands...I have to admit, I can't get her quality with a damn machine!

We have the Kitchenaid also. Not sure but I think it is the Pro 500 lift stand model.
I like the paddle and dough hook for baking, although I do most of the kneading by hand.

I used to have a viking which I don't recommend. Right now I have a Bosch Universal Plus however it's not good for small batches and is a real pain to clean. There is a swedish machine the Ankarsrum which is supposed to be the cats meow. When I get around to knocking over the next bank I'm gonna buy the Hausler which is a dedicated bread kneader/mixer.
The Hobart N50 is probably the ideal machine as long as you don't make really stiff dough like bagel dough and 5 quarts is enough for you.No matter how many men you kill you can't kill your successor-Emperor Nero

I suppose it's shameful to have a Cuisonart Bread machine... So forget I even mentioned it.

I play with an old Kitchen Aid. Used to knead by hand all the time but like the convenience of the machine. Perfect for one or two batches of bread (recipe later in The Recipe Box for one loaf of challah).
And thanks, big for setting up the new sections."The sharpening stones from time to time provide officers with gasoline."

I have had my Kenwood Major for a decade now. Perfect for us!
