I have 2 of these babies, a 4 1/2 qt and a 5 qt. Both of them are little workhorses, that I use daily in my bakery. I did have another 4 1/2 qt, but I fried it after many years of faithful service.

I like the larger one better because of the bowl lift, the tilt head one can smash your fingers in low cabinets, and I find it harder to clean.

Not only do I make plenty of batters, doughs and icing in them, but I also have the attachment for shredding (carrots for carrot cake) and I often make them pull double duty in my home - the attachment that strains the skin and seeds of tomatoes is a must have...
