Even the beaters and dough hooks are steel! ( unlike the Artisan, it&#8217;s plastic? not that sturdy esp if u r making bread dough) The colour of the mixer ( Dark Pewter) is really chic and pretty &#8211; matched our Brita flask. So we opened the mixer and we needed to test it out right? Used a cake mix ( the simplest way to bake) to bake cupcakes and a 9&#8243; cake.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/seattletimes.6eptember.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/cake.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1282\" title=\"cake\" src=\"http:\/\/seattletimes.6eptember.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/cake.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"404\" height=\"404\" srcset=\"https:\/\/seattletimes.6eptember.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/cake.jpg 404w, https:\/\/seattletimes.6eptember.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/cake-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/seattletimes.6eptember.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/cake-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 404px) 100vw, 404px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Cakes turns out nice! NO FUSS at all&#8230; no need to clean the batter which landed on the table&#8230; I have free hands to do some washing while the mixing is in process&#8230; wah! worth every single penny!<\/p>\n<p>However, maybe the engine is &#8216;powerful&#8217; ( 575 watts) &#8211; it&#8217;s super noisy, sounds abit like vaccum cleaner.. and maybe it&#8217;s new.. it has some weird engine smell coming out.. ohh&#8230; some parts of the flour was not mixed properly &#8211; so i needed to stop the mixer on a few occasions to scrape down.<\/p>\n<p>Other than that&#8230;the mixing action is superb.
