Customer Review: Pay a lot, get a little
Summary: 2 Stars
It really pains me to write this review. I was so hopeful before my purchase. On paper, the Globe looks fantastic: large motor, gear driven transmission, durable; a real KA killer. Before I get to the problems, let me tell you the good. The mixer is handsome and looks great in the kitchen. The bowl lift mechanism works well and the bowl is held in place by clamps. The speed dial is continuously variable but notched for the 10 speeds advertised. The mixer attachments are well built, and the top cover is easily removed for access to the motor and planetary housing. Now for the bad. This mixer creates lots and lots of heat. Mixing a double batch of pizza dough (appx. 4 lbs) caused the machine to overheat and shut down. I had to split dough in half and finish. It creates lots of heat when I mix double batches of whole wheat dough, again 65% AR and 4.15 lbs. The hook and the paddle push ingredients to the outside of the bowl, never quite incorporating the ingredients into your dough. The ingredients at the bottom of the bowl are never quite incorporated either. The final straw for me was the climbing dough problem. The design of the hook causes the dough to climb. All in all, I am very disapointed with this mixer and I returned it to the retailer where it was purchased.
