Mixmasters--batters. KA,Kenwood-any planetary mixer-Dough. If you bake and mix batters-good to have BOTH. |

I have yellow, pink and turquoise. I've put them in the dishwasher and they seem to be OK. I will mention that I don't use them that often. If I were using them more often I might hand wash them but for occasional use it seems to be OK.
As far as which works better, I think it's a toss up but also depends on what you're making. Obviously you won't knead pizza dough in one but for whipping egg white, cakes, frostings and stuff like that I love using a MM. My use of MM is more nostalgic than anything else. When I was a kid I used to help my Aunt Mary using her MM Model 10. She used to let me scrape the bowl and then lick the beaters. My Mom had a KitchenAid for a long as I can remember.

The MM's are useless for dough with those spiral hooks. I tried numerous times years ago and every time was a failure. I don't know why they even bothered. I never used it for cookie dough so can't say. The MM shines at batters and whipping potatos , plus you can remove it from the stand and whip potatos right in the cooking pot. I wouldn't put the bowls in the dishwasher. I think they're colored the same way as old Pyrex bows and it eventually can wear off.
I'm a Bosch Universal fan myself.. but you know there's a clone out their called the Nutrimill Artiste and it uses actual Bosch accessories etc.. They make some of the Bosch attachemnents. It's getting really good reviews and is on sale for around $129 CLICK HERE TO GO TO petek's LINK |
