Overview
Cuisinart's SM-50BLU is a 5.5-quart tilt-head stand mixer with a 500-watt motor, die-cast metal body, and 12 speeds, sold in Frosted Blue along with five other color options.
It sits below KitchenAid's popular tilt-head mixers on price while offering a larger bowl than KitchenAid's smaller models, a comparison several buyers made when choosing it. The die-cast metal construction and included whisk, dough hook, and paddle cover the core mixing tasks out of the box, with a broader accessory line (pasta attachments, meat grinder, ice cream maker, spiralizer) sold separately for the same power hub.
- 500-watt die-cast metal motor
- 5.5-quart stainless steel bowl
- 12 speeds with tilt-back head
- 3-year limited warranty, BPA free
Who it's for
Suits home bakers moving up from a hand mixer who want a heavier machine for bread dough and larger batches, and buyers who want a specific color to match a kitchen.
