Breville the Bakery Chef Stand Mixer BEM825BAL

The highlights are electronic speed sensor holds a set speed under dough resistance rather than bogging down and integrated scale removes a separate measuring step. One caveat, 3,200 ratings is a much smaller review base than KitchenAid's tens of thousands.
