Cuisinart SM-70 7-Qt. 12-Speed Stand Mixer

Cuisinart

7-quart bowl-lift stability at a lower price than KitchenAid's equivalent bowl-lift models

  • 500W motor with bowl-lift design
  • 7-quart stainless bowl
  • 12 speeds
  • Dough hook, flat beater, and whisk included

Pros

  • 7-quart bowl-lift stability at a lower price than KitchenAid's equivalent bowl-lift models
  • 500W motor handles large dough batches without the stra in a tilt-head at this wattage would show
  • 12 speeds give finer low-end control for gentle bread-starter mixing than most bowl-lift competitors

Cons

  • Cuisinart's attachment ecosystem for the SM-70 hub is far smaller than KitchenAid's
  • 8,400 ratings is a modest review base for a bowl-lift-class purchase
  • Bowl-lift height still requires open counter clearance above the machine
