Review Group #: 1 (4.00 stars) 23 Reviews	Smooth start feature with 7 different speed • Users complain that starting speed is high »See Details The 7 speed settings offer an extremely wide range of control, with 3 slow speeds available, plus "Soft Start" that gradually increases motor speed on starting. Like some other reviews, I wish the mixer started at a slower speed rather than starting full speed and then slowing down. The "soft start" works well, but seems to build to about speed 3 before slowing back down to speed 1 before I select a speed. The Cuisinart boasts 7 speeds, and there's truly 7 different speeds. When you first turn this device on it starts at a much higher speed then number 1 and it ramps down quickly to the number 1 slower speed. Advice: Re-think the 7 speeds and save some money with a 5 speed mixer instead. to increase speeds, it's very powerful at top speed and whips up egg whites or cream. This mixer when turned on starts with a fast speed that does slow slightly quickly. It always starts out at the lowest speed then the user can increase the speed as needed. The first speed is quite slow, unlike the low speed of the Dualit, while the highest speed is quite brisk. »Hide Details
Review Group #: 2 (4.50 stars) 7 Reviews	Comes with a whisk attachment which beats evenly and quickly • Can also buy extra whisk attachments »See Details Additionally the whisk attachment beats evenly and quickly. This created no problem for me. It comes with a whisk attachment which costs about $15 extra for the KitchenAid. It makes the best whipped cream with the special whisk attachment. As a result, I ordered the whisk separately ($11). I find the Cuisinart whisk a bit flimsy. Now we've this extra whisk, which we could return, but then we'll have paid the cost of shipping it back in addition to the cost of shipping it, which is more than the whisk is worth. The reason for writing this review is that we were encouraged on the information page to purchase the whisk attachment, so we did. The shipping cost for it was nearly as much as the whisk itself. I only wish the beaters (attachments) were a bit heavier. »Hide Details
Review Group #: 3 (4.50 stars) 8 Reviews	Users highly recommended the mixer »See Details Highly recommend this mixer!. I DO highly recommend this brand!. This mixer was recommended by "America's Test Kitchen" and since their testing and recommendations have yet to disappoint I followed their recommendation. Love it, love it!. All in all an excellent purchase that I highly recommend. The recipient loves it. My wife loves this mixer. Wouldn't recommend this at all!. I love the shape of the beaters as well. I highly recommend this mixer to anyone who does a lot of baking, especially heavy duty baking. »Hide Details
Review Group #: 4 (5.00 stars) 9 Reviews	Starts gently and shifts speeds smoothly • Easy to use and cleanup »See Details Mixer easy to hold. I found that it isn't noisy, starts gently, shifts speeds smoothly, no splashing, easy to hold, and splendid beater designs! I like the slow start-up - easy to change speeds. The speed is very easy to increase or decrease while mixing. 7 speeds give you more than enough power, flexibility, and is easy to use and cleanup. It was better than expected; great design; not too heavy; powerful; easy to operate and clean. This mixer is so easy to use and does a fantastic job. If you're looking for something that's easy to handle. The variable speeds are good. The parts are easy to clean and overall covers all the main uses of a mixer. »Hide Details
Review Group #: 5 (3.50 stars) 13 Reviews	Various speeds work great • Can be used to mix dough or mash potatoes • Can buy a dough hook attachment »See Details The Cuisinart mixer works very well. If is works this well in a professional environment just imagine how it'll work in your home kitchen!. It's all the power I need for mixing cookie dough and mashing potatoes. I believe one of their marketing comments was the mixer was strong enough to work through two or three batches of cookie dough at a time. Just whipped up some cream and it works wonderfully. I thought at first that the beaters themselves (with no center post) would be too flimsy for heavy cookie dough, etc. but they work just great - and clean up is easier because of that feature. My previous mixer was an inexpensive one I'd had for ten or more years that'd handled far heavier doughs for mixing so I expected this one to work as well if not better. I feel the various speeds work great. Also, I'd recommend purchasing the dough hook attachments if you work with thicker or heavier batters. This method has worked well for me with minimal to no splattering. »Hide Details
Review Group #: 6 (4.00 stars) 15 Reviews	Digital speed settings are easy to read • One-Touch Speed Control • Slow start feature is good »See Details I particularly liked the speed control and the digital display which makes it very easy to increase or decrease the speed while mixing. The best feature is it starts at the lowest speed every time to mix the ingredients. The electronic regulator works very well to control mixing speed at lower settings, but of course can't keep the beater speeds from slowing down once you've reached the maximum power output. She's mixed some fairly thick cookie dough and has had no problems. Warning, don't start it while it's in the mix, rather start it then insert into work. The slow start feature is great when you're mixing dry ingredients into wet. start it on any speed except stir, then turn up. I've mixed cookie dough, cake dough, and various toppings and been satisfied with the results. »Hide Details
Review Group #: 7 (4.00 stars) 19 Reviews	Beaters work very well but they are not dishwasher safe »See Details Still, this mixer made quick work of whipping cream and a cake mix without a strain and the beaters seem to work just fine. It feels and looks first rate, and the beaters do a great job. It comes with a separate beater for whipping egg whites, cream or anything else that requires a different type beater. It's still working with one beater. After two years mine gave up holding the beater. And despite the poor quality material of the beaters, they did "clean" well (as in, your mixture won't get stuck on the beaters). The "soft" start is really a nice feature as it keeps things from flying all over the kitchen when the beaters start up. I mainly use it for cookie dough, cake mixes, and mashed potatoes. Needless to say, Cuisinart claims the beaters are dishwasher safe, but they RUSTED after the FIRST use. »Hide Details
Review Group #: 8 (4.50 stars) 6 Reviews	Great product • Very easy to use • Value for money • Product registration process does not work well »See Details This product replaced an identical mixer which got burned in a kitchen accident. Very happy with the product. Great product & very easy to use. This's a value for your dollar product. Also be warned that the product registration card is only for marketing purposes. When I called, they didn't have my product registered with customer service. I bought this one to replace a less expensive model I'd. The only way to get a replacement mixer if yours breaks is to present a receipt, so keep your receipt: you'll need it in about three years. »Hide Details
