Now blenders on the other hand...
My only real complaint is that I can't get the bowl adjusted high enough for the attachments to just touch the bottom, as recommended. I'm planning to try a kit from Mr. Mixer to address that. It would also be nice if it came with a paddle that has spatula fins.
One thing I really appreciate, maybe standard on newer mixers but new to me, is the safety behavior when plugging it in. If the speed lever is already pushed forward, it won't start until you move it back to "off" and then forward again. We store ours in another room, and it's easy to bump the lever while moving it. Our old mixer would start immediately when plugged in; this one doesn't, which I really appreciate, especially with young kids who like to help and may have hands where they shouldn't be when it's first plugged in.
TL;DR: Solid mixer that handles big dough batches well, safer plug-in behavior than older basic models, minor bowl-height adjustment issue, at-least on mine (fixable), overall very happy with it.

And what does "TL;DR:" mean? Thanks in advance :-)

This one doesn't have the screw adjustment for height/depth at the hinge that their Classic model does?

TL;DR is "too long; didn't read" in case no one wanted to read through my paragraphs of information.
I have both the old proline and an older tilt head with an ac motor. Very big difference in quality of sound and handling of stiffer dough, particularly at lower speeds. If you have the money, it goes without saying that the commercial 8 is a more robust product with a better motor, but this is less than half the price and will serve you well. It will just scream a little more while doing it. Commercial 8 can be found at Costco business centers usually, but I want to say it's like $600ish??? If you don't have money to burn, get this one. If it ever goes bad and you're out of warranty, you can still get another and spend less than what you would on the commercial line. I do love that DC motor though. 😂

If you do have an older unit it is possible to swap out to a DC motor, but costs a bit more than I would like.
