Cuisinart Stand Mixer SM-50: amzn.to/35EYw7B
Amy, I got this stand mixer a week ago, it´s great. Greetings from Dominican Republic.
I purchased this mixer and so far I love it. Quieter than a kitchen aid and does such a great job of making meringues. When it comes to creaming butter and sugar I had none of the problems that you had in your video ( so far ) .When it comes to bread dough it did a much better job than a kitchen aid. Did not over heat like a Kitchen aid either. Over all I think for the price the quality of this mixer is A++.
Do you know if the KA bowl and paddles fit this Cuisinart stand mixer
@@WannodsPlace Sorry to say they do not fit.
@@jblook7291 thanks for letting me know.
I decided yesterday after seeing Amys review in the Bosch compact stand mixer. I ordered it last night
Thanks for the responses. Since it doesn't, i decided to order the Bosch compact stand mixer after watching a review Amy done on it. I'm anxiously awaiting its arrival.
My Kitchenaid 325 Watt couldn’t cream cold butter and sugar without the motor slowing down to completely stopping plus it began smoking and stunk up kitchen! Ordered the Cuisinart Agave Green color today. I’ll he testing out creaming cold butter and sugar soon as I receive it
So glad to see you review this! I’ve been following y’all’s channel for a while. And I look forward to your reviews, and actually trust your reviews. Thank you, Amy!
Just found this channel and holy crap exactly the review I needed. Your chemistry with your husband is awesome and so is the review.
I believe that to truly do a test, you would have had to test this and a mixer you like and normally use like a Kitchen Aid testing them side by side and have done the bread test side by side using the exact same ingredients, portions and steps. Like adding the salt when you did. What if something was off with your yeast and it wasn’t the Cuisinart’s fault your dough wasn’t exactly as expected?
With all that said, thanks for taking the time to film and show us. 😆☺️
Thank you Amy for this video!! I have the PM-50 going on 4 years in April. You are spot on about that mixer. I didn't realize this until I started in learning how to make bread dough. The dough on mine looks just like yours and I end up kneading it by hand. I thought it was me. Also I decided to do the KA dime test on paddle beaters to see if they are adjusted....whelp the beater didn't even come near a quarter much less a dime. After calling Cuisinart today..no adjustments can be made as they no longer have service centers...(Say WHAT??) Newer models according to the rep. can make adjustments....errr.....errr... In the long run it does do well on large batches of cookie dough, pound cakes(do the scrape the bowl dance for creaming smaller batches) and think I am going to have re-invest in a KA... My rating is a C overall due servicablity for the user.....
Thank you very much for the comments of this mixer.
I like how it looks I don’t see a problem with it it’s beautiful
Hi Amy, will the aftermarket paddle’s (example one’s with the silicone edge) that fit Kitchenaid SM fit the Cuisinart SM-50? If not, do you have a recommendation? Thank you.
Thanks for this!!! I was considering this or the Hamilton beach 7 speed one with the handle and speed guide on top. Have any knowledge and opinion to share about the Hamilton beach one? Tried to find videos and reviews on it but not much out there. Or recommend any budget friendly one for those who like to make cookies and dough for pizza, garlic knots and milk bread lol
Try applying some olive oil to the dough hook. Works with the Kitchenaid Artisan, and Classic dough hooks. Dough doesn't climb the hook as much and you get a better knead.
You can make a simple adjustment and it will adjust the head down to reach the product. Lift the head up and turn the screw clock wise 1/4 turn at a time. To raise it up turn screw left
How that going to scrap the sides?
😮😮😮
Hey Amy & Eric! Loved the video! And the mixer! Omg I am SOOOO EXCITED! I ORDERED AN HL6!!!!! I can’t open it till Christmas though😫😩😩 I’m gonna be baking bread left and right. I guess I’ll just have to start a mixer collection. What has Amy created! 🤣They ran out of spare bowls too. So I made some ALDI cinnamon rolls today they they were yummy. I kinda feel guilty that I’m moving my baby Artisan off it’s throne😩😂 I’m gonna get one of those storage carts to put them on. I’m naming it Hobie the Baby Hobart! Yay! Well, Happy Cooking & God Bless Y’all!
Congrats Cash on Hobie, the Baby Hobart! Love it! Early Merry Christmas. Just remember that it is still a light duty mixer in that it can do lots of bread, but just four pounds at a time. Don't get into a race with Mayhem and try to do a ten pound recipe! Too bad you gotta wait until Christmas. Can't you ask Santa if you can open early so you can make some Thanksgiving Dinner rolls? Make sure you stock up on yeast. If this next lockdown goes as crazy as the last one, then you may be left with a mixer and nothing to mix in it. Nothing wrong with moving the Artisan off its throne. It's still a beauty, but by not kneading bread in it, you'll be extending it's life.
Love when Amy says whats up
LOL.
Love product reviews!! 💜
Glad you enjoyed the review. Thanks for watching!!!
Comprei a minha SM50 aqui no Brasil, estou amando!
There is a flat head screw that adjusts the height of the mixer. The screw is located near the top of the base if you lift the mixer head up. There is a video on you tube that explains it.
The problem wasn't the height of the beater it was the space between the beater and the sides of the bowl. Thanks for watching.
@@AmyLearnsToCook true I noticed that on the butter and egg. Flour for your bread tell alot. I'll see how it goes. Can recommend a kitchens that around the same price?
Know I'm late to the conversation but I agree with you, I own this mixer is red and I too struggle with the exact problems you had in this video. I find the mixer itself is great its the paddle attachment and dough hook that sucks. I'm hoping aftet awhile they will come out with a new dough hook and paddle attachments.
I am going to try using my Hamilton Beach dough hook. I've seen some hooks on Amazon that are compatible with most spring attached-types.
Hi Amy, love your reviews, could you tell me if the Breville sous chef 16 cup replace my stand mixer? I’m trying to declutter. Please help. Thx. Amy I.
Best couple n Cuisinar review 🤣 . About the Cuisinar, I do like the look 👀. I got mine in white , love how the chrome n white looks in my kitchen as my decor is white ,aqua and gray. So it looks pretty . I didn’t like the old fashion look on kitchen aid and 2x more expensive for the machine . Cuisinar looks more modern n cheaper also, if I want the bottom to touch u have to look at a RUclips video that teaches u how to lower it down some which I found so easy to do.
Thanks for review.
I about died when she smacked that whipped cream in his face lol!
I bought one yesterday from Costco
It has 600 watts and 6.5 quarts
It's really nice
Awesome! What color did you get?
I got a dark grey one 🤗
FINALLY!!!!! I got to see this Cuisinart Stand Mixer in ACTION!!!!!!!
Looking in depth, I do however agree about some of the parts being made out of plastic.
Hey CJ Glad you enjoyed it. The results were BLAH. So it's a mixed build. Smoother operator, with cheap parts that doesn't mix or knead all that well. So if you own a spatula to scrape it down and don't mind kneading for 20-30 mins.... but we ate some of the bread this morning, and it wasn't bad. The dough just looked a little funny going into the bread pans. But USA PANS/William Sonoma Gold Touch did a wonderful job!
@@EricLearnstoCook Also on the Whipped Cream part, it seemed like the Cuisinart took a very long time to whip.
Whereas compared to my KitchenAid, I’m pretty sure my KitchenAid will whip cream in about 30 or 40 seconds.
@@CShannon1991 wait so 1 minute too long?
Test out he flour with lid attachment. I got one for Christmas. I don't mind if dough hook doesn't work all out using my my hands 😆
Finally you did it Amy!! I have one and yes I agree with your review 100% .
it was very cheap in Amazon Australia and I couldn't resist not to have it! I'm like you with all this .. love your review . And Eric interaction!! Lol!
Hi Maria. Thanks for your honest comment. The bread we made wasn't awful. We've made worse. So the Cuisinart probably required more time to properly knead bread. Not a deal breaker, but just nothing to get excited about. If it had a scraper beater like KA's do, then that part wouldn't be so bad. But compared to mixing by hand, it's not that bad. Thanks for your kind words. We have lots of fun making these. Happy Holiday Season!!!
My understanding is this mixer has an adjustment just like the kitchenaid for beater to bowl clearance. This seems to be the issue here not really the way it performed
Amy,,,don't you think C dough hooks are just junk in general compared to spiral hooks?
Love the color, don't like the plastic cover though... do they have an option of a ceramic bowl?
No just a stainless steel bowl I looked. I wanted get a spare bowl
Is it normal for the head to rock and wobble while making bread dough?
are coated attachments not as good as stainless steel ones?
I had one and it was just ok
Amy & Eric I FINALLY GOT A KitchenAid Stand Mixer!!
Awesome! Did you get the Classic Plus? What color? Congratulations on your new mixer!
@@AmyLearnsToCook I was looking into getting the Classic Plus but I got the 4.5 qt Deluxe Tilt Head Model (with a handle on the bowl) in Silver also.
I looked at the wattage of my mixer, it is 300 watts of power.
Hope you enjoy it and if you wear it out, then we know you had lots of fun.
@@EricLearnstoCook I think I can always get my mixer replaced thanks to a warranty.
@@EricLearnstoCook Or maybe get the Pro 600 like Amy’s.
Waring made the last model... I have the silver SM-55 version, and bought my mom a white 7qt one... ;-)
You know your shit! Glad I found your channel!
My Aicock mixer with the double hooks, (you reviewed it), does a much better job with dough than this, but it's not so great at meringue or batter. This machine is supposed to have an adjustment screw inside the neck, maybe, so you can adjust the distance to the sides and/or bottom - a feature I wish the Aicock had.
I looked for an update video on this mixer from you, to see if you ever found the tilt head adjustment screw and gave it a fresh take once adjusted?
You can adjust the mixer head. I don't think it would address the issue of the dough hook being just too narrow. It is too far from the edge of the bowl for it to effectively knead the dough. Raising or lowering it doesn't really help.
@@AmyLearnsToCookMaybe putting in liquids first would help?
Hi Amy!!! Romy here from Miami! which stand mixer would u consider good for making bread! :)
I trust your reviews ty for that.
I bought the breville BFP800 Food Processor because of your great reviews. I've had it about 6 months so far and I'm lovin it.
I'm wondering if this Cuisinart stand mixer bowl and paddles interchangeable with the KitchenAid stand mixer bowl and paddles.
I'd like to have this machine only because its cheaper than KA machine but i want the KA Glass bowl for the Cuisinart stand mixer
They are absolutely interchangeable with kithen aid. Just asked a worker and he opened a package then tested it out on display models.
Are you testing the 500 watt or 800 watt?
I've seen Amy test a lot of stand mixers but never had I seen her have to scrap the bowl for a bread dough. This is new. LoL😋 Honestly I think Scrappy-Doo did a lot better than this mixer in all three categories. Thanks for posting his mixer test. I really appreciate the data that came out of it.
That was funny, but sad (scraping bread dough). I love Scrappy Doo. Amy may not like the color much, but he works. Glad you enjoyed this. :-)
Hi Amy, Thanks for another very thorough review. I've seen other reviews and comments about how the paddle doesn't get as close to the bowl as they would like. Maybe you know that the height can be adjusted, similar to an Artisan, by turning the screw under the mixer head? At any rate, they should have developed a scraper paddle long ago. For the bread, would the salt & yeast mixing together at the start have had an effect? It's too bad you didn't get the result you wanted. Thanks again.
Greetings. I didn't see an adjustment screw under the head. Just the center of the head is an indent on the end of the shaft, certainly nothing that would take a wrench or screwdriver. Thus the Artisan still has this thing beat. What I hate about the Artisan is a need for that screw if you change bowls (glass to stainless steel). What I hate about this mixer is only one bowl and out of the box, the beater doesn't come close to the bowl. Did they test it on something we don't have, like a ceramic or glass bowl, but ship with only stainless steel? Yes, a scraper paddle or just a good beater and dough hook would have done it. Yeah, Amy mistakenly grabbed the salt instead of the sugar. Lucky for her, this was SAF instant yeast, thus no need to let it bloom. So realizing her mistake, she just added all the ingredients at once so the salt wouldn't have a chance to kill the yeast. The bread might have developed the gluten if we let it knead for another 10 or 20 minutes? Dunno. The bread baked OK, so wasn't a total waste. Glad you enjoyed, and thanks for watching :-)
@@EricLearnstoCook Hi Eric, I really wanted to like that mixer, even though I saw from other reviews that it was leaving too much mixture on the bowl. It reminded me of when Amy's batter made a crater on the Mini KitchenAid mixer. Here is a video link that shows how to adjust the height of the Cuisinart mixer: ruclips.net/video/YSYcozwHnH4/видео.html Even with it adjusted, will it do the job? Maybe it's an OK mixer for one loaf of bread (3 cups flour) instead of two, but after seeing Amy's frustration, I know I wouldn't buy it now. Have a good night.
Thanks Amy, to expensive and not a good machine, I have a chipy $130.00 and is PERFECT, i was trying to get heavy duty but this is not an upgrade, I will buy the same chip brand again.
You two are too much 😃
Can you get the neighbours in one of your shows?
There is a screw under the head that makes attachments lower so it gets the bottom. It is in the directions
To me, this mixer seems way much powerfull then the Artisan... at half the price!
thanks for the review I was really considering this mixer. The creaming of the butter failure turned me off. Just to add, I've read more than a few negative reviews. Thanks again. Have you reviewed the Kitchenaid mixer? Subbed
Ohh, she’s reviewed LOTS of KitchenAid mixers! You should take a look at her collection!
Thx!
Thanks for watching!
Pretty SURE the reason the sugar & butter stuck to the sides is, you keep increasing the speed of a small amount for the initial area, it flew to the sides then stayed there. You did that at least twice I saw.
I love your mixer reviews ....I have the KitchenAid given to me by my georgous kids with the pasta maker and spiral attachments.. about 5years ago and she's still going strong her name is Daisy... What do you think of the decal stickers to personalise your mixer ... Iove your videos each week. How is everything going with you both especially with the covid 19 here in Australia we are doing well ... Wishing you well
Hi, Amy. I finally got myself a kitchen aid stand mixer and I am so excited to use it even though it has not arrived yet. I got a refurbished stand mixer and I am not sure how it would function. I would love to know what is your opinion on that?
Hi Emmy! My very first KA mixer was a refurbished and it is still going strong! Did you order it directly from KitchenAid?
@@AmyLearnsToCook Yes I did order it directly from Kitchenaid website.
@@AmyLearnsToCook I was going to order it from Everything Kitchens but I wasn’t sure if I could trust buying it from them.
I've bought a few things from Everything Kitchens. They are great! Eric bought my Ankarsrum mixer from them and I bought my KitchenAid Professional HD.
You should be ok. I wouldn't worry about it being a refurb over any other mixer from KA. When you get it, please let me know how you like it. Which model did you get?
I will be staying with the KA.
Talking about space age, I just bought my Cuisinart in Costco in Canada. It does not have the button with numbers for different speeds but it has a digital display with a manual like a computer.
Asks me to select my preferred language, then asks to choose between Dough, mixing or whisking. When I choose dough, it asks me pizza, white bread or whole wheat.
Push on the button while the mixer works, will pause it and a longer press will stop it from working. Try it, I need a lesson on this mixer please
Me too!
I got one for my mom 31 days ago and just opened it today. I hope it is good enough for her to do gluten-free baking. She does love to make bread. I'm disappointed that the dough hook isn't so good and that it doesn't cream butter well. I wish we had checked this out before the return window closed.
Thanks for your video.
Did you have the same issues with yours when you tried it out for yourself? I'm thinking of possibly getting this one as well.
Does Cuisinart have pattles that have a flexible edge like the KA does.
@@vmitchinson Do you mean paddles? No, they don't.
It's like the paddle is too small or the bowl is too big. How weird.
Have any of you adjust the head height to the bowl? Easy to do
How do you adjust the head height to the bowl? Does it make a difference with the problem of material being stuck to the side of the bowl? And does it help with the dough hook problem? Thanks.
Could the reason the dough seemed under developed be because you added salt in with the yeast rather than sugar?
Very good question.... MMMmmm...!
As far as I know and experienced the only factor needed for gluten development is water. I tried autolyse without salt, sugar just water and waited and gluten was developed.
Update watched that part and I think putting the oil at the start hindered the gluten development. Should have been added last when gluten is already developed.
Shouldn't have put the oil there together with the water first. Oil js a water barrier and it hinders gluten development. Oil should be put in last when gluten is already developed. Not a bad machine just an incorrect method.
You need to adjust the screw… lots of videos online about this. Also ask Cuisinart!
i bought this one 2 years ago as my first one and i have exactly the same complaints can u recommend one that doesnt do the same things with the creaming of the butter and the dough no sticking to the sides and going around and around i use mine for baking and bread mostly i luv ur videos you guys rock
Thanks Tracy. Amy is planning on a video that will show proper butter creaming action (and maybe some not so good). This would certainly rank on the latter. Obviously, anything with a scraper beater would be better as not requiring scraping the bowl down. Some paddles trap dough. So it's really hit and miss as to which brands/models to consider. But I'm sure Amy has some ideas.
thats what i faced when i bought a mixer named butterfly in malaysia, the paddle is not TOUCHING the butter!
That's too bad. The mixer only has to do three things well, and it only does one well. Mixing is likely the most important, and they couldn't offer a scraper beater or make the beater come closer to the bowl? Too crazy. Thanks for watching. We appreciate it.
@@EricLearnstoCook not sure if with scraper it will be good? but it is a huge disaster for me to mix well the ingredients
I ordered the 800 watt on Overstock and received the 500 watt. I’m thinking about returning it
Yeah I would return it if it isnt the one you ordered. Mine is the 500 watt. I didn't know that they have another model.
Amy you are doing a lot of videos about mixers they look almost the same could you please do some about other machines like microwave or portable ovens etc
Hi Ali. Thanks for watching. We did a microwave oven review once. Didn't go so well. Did a toaster oven. Ditto. IF, and a big IF, a sponsor sends us something, then we can do those. But if we're spending our own money, then mixers, multicookers, pressure cookers, knives and food processors are the most likely things. I hope you understand.
the problem is that the amount of dough your making is small compared to the size of the bowl
how would that solve the problem that the dough gets stuck to the top of the hook before its fully kneaded?
I wish i saw this review before.. i did bought one few month ago and I have same problem like exactly what did you said 😔. I do not like it but I can not return
These Cuisinart mixers are on special at the Costcos in Canada ($149 CDN, approx. $119 USD). I wonder how many they are selling. Reviews are mixed. It's too bad you can't return your mixer. I was thinking of getting one months ago, until I saw a couple of reviews where things were not mixing properly.
I think the plastic bit would worry me too. They looked cheap with that silver finish and I wonder what their longevity would be when it came to cleaning them . Especially when you consider how easily the hub cover popped off - I can see it ending up in the mixer bowl. They saved a couple of quid with plastic rather than metal, but I think the extra would have improved the overall look.
The issue with the beater and dough hook is a bit baffling. You'd have thought that would have been noticed in product testing. Creaming sugar and butter together is a basic step for many baking recipes. It clearly smeared the butter around the inside of the bowl and then just tickled the surface. Same fir the dough hook, although I thought it looked quite wet, like a pizza dough rather than a bread dough.
I agree with you about the plastic cover becoming part of your whipped cream. Poor design. Needs a redesign to eliminate that cover. Also the shape under the cover is going to be a cleaning problem.
Great Review! I've learned so much about dough from your videos.
I'm Natalie Willis on facebook fyi
Thanks Natalie. Glad you enjoyed our videos and learned something.
It needs a better bowl and dough hook design.
Ajusting the height is essential for good job for creaming.
Hi there Mario: have you gotta cuisinart mixer? I request this to you 'cos one is flying from US to Vzla, and i wanna be sure that i did a good buying. Thanks beforehand. Javier
@@javieruza4779 es?
Hola te llegó, la batidora y que tal te funcionó?
I have one of these and it was awful. It seems a lot of them came out of the factory without the head properly adjusted so there is too much space between the attachments and the bowl. I just discovered there is an adjusting screw in the joint when the head is in the up position. Turning it in(clockwise) will lower the head.
@@jory6795 It helped some. The problem with most paddles for table top mixers is that they are thin and rounded and they tend to cut thru batter instead of grabbing it like a flat paddle. Scrapping a bowl is an issue even with commercial mixers unless you have one that has a scraper that attaches to the planetary and sweeps the inside of the bowl but I've only seen those on larger mixers.
I have it in Italy and the hook it's not useful for dough when you need to develop a gluten mesh. It's is not good! I'm really disappointed with this aspect.
Also after about three months the post used to put on and take off the attachments will freeze up and you won't be able to use your attachments. You end up with a very pretty piece of junk.
Bowls are just a tad to big! I mix in the bowl and change to kneading on floured countertop! Almost defeating the purpose of having a mixer!!
First!
Not if we delete/ban? LOL. How are you doing Cash? Hope your family is feeling better.
bowl not shaped right. too wide
Next time try the dry ingredients before the wet
Looks like some parts of food preparation difficult.
Doesn't mix or knead very well because the beater and dough hook don't come close enough to the bowl and/or are wrong shape. But some people like this mixer, so it must do a good enough job for them.
KA bowl and beaters DO fit this mixer, does a better job with the interchange.
Wow! I sure hope so. I'm getting this one for Christmas & was thinking of ways to fight the negatives of it. I'm going to have to take a look.
I recently purchased before viewing this video. So the KA dough hook is interchangeable with this too?
Robinsaid? Cusinairt.???
The color is robin's egg.
vevor pro seems better
I definitely won't buy this. The plastic paint on it will fall off in time. I cuisinart offering to replace it or are you stuck. I think they were economizing on certain things. I have an older kitchen aid stand mixer and I love it
I think you're right on Cuisinart cheaping some parts to save money. It is competitively priced, but wish it did a better job mixing and kneading.
Shouldn't have put the oil there together with the water first. Oil js a water barrier and it hinders gluten development. Oil should be put in last when gluten is already developed. Not a bad machine just an incorrect method.
Watt ratings to me are almost meaningless. Horsepower and torque would be more helpful from these companies. It's like all the home theaters with unreasonably high wattage claims which never add up to what an actual test shows. There are amplifiers out there that put out as little as 10 watts per channel that can sound better than modern systems claiming 1,000 or more.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE don't go down that road. Well, too late. LOL. I hate it when they don't include the THD ratings. I love (or used to love) Onkyo because they were priced good and had clean power (if you read the specs and avoided the cheapest models), until they got too cheap in building them and lost a ton of customers over it. I agree. There is a difference between peak power and RMS power, that most don't use, because it's lower than peak (and I doubt most people know what it means, let alone understand it). That all said, even if mixer manufacturers used torque, what torque to specify at what speed/gear? But yes, anything is better than what KA does, but then, KA sells a ton of mixers. OK. Done hating on audio and stand mixer manufacturers. LOL.
Tough review... Poor cuisinart😅🤣💕
Salt kills yeast🤷♂️
It does. Luckily, we didn't need to proof the yeast because it was SAF instant yeast. Thus why Amy immediately proceeded with the recipe. She was mixed up on what cup contained sugar. Had it been Active Dry Yeast, then we would have tossed out the ingredients and started over.
That's right...!!!
You are using a SMALL AMT. OF BUTTER IN A 5QUART MIXER .WHAT DO YOU EXPECT LADY ?
You have to use a small bowl for a small amount of batter that's common sense
It does not matter how much you mix if the beater is too small to get close to the side of the bowl.
@@vmitchinson the beater isn't too small, the height of the beater needs to be adjusted down.
Why so big negativism?I am very happy with mine
Not liking it. 🤔 🙁
Me neither. LOL. Looks are one thing. Build quality is another. But not mixing or kneading well. Now, if they offered a scraper beater, then it'd be a bit better.
I feel like she wants everything to spend $600 for a KitchenAid like who cares a mixer is a mixer like huh anything is better than using a whisk instead of a mixer
I think you were generous in your rating of this mixer. I would not buy one.
I think Amy was in a good mood. I'd give it a C as in average because it didn't mix very well (lots of scraping) nor knead very well. But many mixers today don't do very well. Thanks for watching. We appreciate it.
@@EricLearnstoCook I agree with you. I was amazed at how good that thing was at applying butter to the bowl sides, kinda like applying stucco to a house.
looks like junk
How to Adjust Tilt Head Stand Mixer Cuisinart KitchenAid. Watch this video to adjust your whisk to your bowl. It will help improve your results. If you did this first you would of had much better results.
