Title: Shakes, rattles & rolls
Product review: I purchased this mixer on the recommendation of Cooks Illustrated and have had it less than a month. It is a horrible disappointment and an expensive purchase mistake. The mixer rattles wildly even at the lowest settings. Batter collects on the sides and requires constant scraping. The timer feature does not begin to compensate. I prefer my borrowed old KitchenAid Ultra for thoroughness of mixing, quietness and ease of use.My experience is the opposite of "satisfied Cuisinart convert." This machine jitters horribly even on a light cookie dough.I'll probably hate it until I win the lottery and can buy a different model.Total shocking disappointment. I will return it if I possibly can.UPDATE January 2009: Mixer was returned and refund granted. The search resumes. I note that KitchenAid is now selling mixers with a separate timer, clearly IMO the top feature of this Cuisinart.
