Yeah it is a nice little device, can handle dough up with to ~1.5-1.8L of liquid depending on which type of dough. I like to make a sticky dough so I use the hook. I bought it for some money I got in wedding gift. I bake every weekend more or less and put my rolls in the freezer, so they can be microwaved every morning.Oh man. An Ankarsrum is on my wishlist!
nice buns.
what is the advantage over our big bowl lift kitchenaid with that mixer?

It has 7 years of warranty, and can handle up to 5kg of dough at any speed.That one is belt driven, so I'm guess it is more repairable. No idea what the ratio is between motor and shaft.
I have KitchenAid Pro 6000

Apparently the US version "only" has a 600W motor vs 1500W in Europe.

I bake every week and usually around 4.5kg dough, so it is perfect for my needs.KitchenAid only comes with 1 year warranty, which is horrible. Not to mention they tried to cheap out and used nylon gears for a period of time. bastards.
Got mine in 2006, I doubt I have used it more than a dozen times.

Yes it depends on your usage. I don't have time for advanced cooking ATM, but I make a large volume of dough every week so that is why I like it.It's basically a beefier version of a mixer for serious home cooks. However, for most people, my recommendation is the Kitchenaid lift bowl because of the accessories...not just the hook attachments, but also the front motor attachments for things like shredding cheese, making pasta, etc.
That is for the Kitchenaid Classic series.Not to mention they tried to cheap out and used nylon gears for a period of time. bastards.
There is no reason to use nylon at all.That is for the Kitchenaid Classic series.
The Artisan Series is much better and the Pro Series is better still.
I have the Artisan Mini and it does everything I need it to do.
I agree. There are repair kits for them that use metal gears.There is no reason to use nylon at all.
