But a great pizza dough can be tough to make, especially in bulk.

Here are my first impressions.

Setting up

My first impression of this mixer is just how heavy it is.

Even my courier warned me as I accepted the delivery that this is a hefty item.

The attachments are weighty, too.

The first thing I made was a simple loaf of white sandwich bread, using a basic online recipe.

By the end of the 10 minutes, my dough was the perfect consistency.

My finished loaf came out evenly risen and with a springy texture that was perfect for sandwiches.

I threw together another go-to cake recipe that I’ve made contless times; a lemon loaf cake.

My first impressions

I’ve yet to put this mixer to the full test.

Is it a good stand mixer?
