I have a 5qt. It's great for big jobs such as tiered cakes. I use it to make
bread frequently (making bread eventually almost killed the Cuisinart due to
leakage around the stem turning to cement). Having one of those shield
thingies that helps prevent flour from being thrown around is essential.
Things I wish I had: the sausage grinder attachment and an extra bowl. There
are only two real problems with it: it is too tall to fit in the appliance
garage, so it has to sit out on the counter, and it is not ideal for recipes
that start out by whipping a small number of egg whites or yolks. (5 or more
is fine, 1 or 2 is too little liquid to readily engage the beater).
