It occurs to me that although many people prefer the vertical jug type handles on the mixer bowl, for a bowl this size, the two horizontal handles make sense. Even half filled, that bowl is going to weigh a ton.
This is what I love about Amy & Eric. If they smell electrical, if the mixer gets to hot or the dough isn't mixed liked it should be Ya gonna hear bout it.
Great video, one thing I would like to see on mixer tests is to use the regular paddle on the cookie test to see the bowl clearance and save the scraper paddle for later, this looks like an excellent mixer and KA better watch out.
When Amy goes "WOW!" "WHOA!" .. I have to head right over to Amazon and see the price LMAO cause you KNOW it's doing something AMAZING.. She's seen it ALL!
Yeah, I do a slow rise in the fridge for the bread. The cookies I kept in the fridge and I baked them off just a little bit ago. I think Eric has already had 4 of them lol!
Thank you for watching. On this model, it does not move. The 8.4 slides up as you say, and the 5.5 pops off. The literature did not mention any hub/attachments for this model.
That's a very nice stand mixer. I love how quiet it is, and the scraper paddle is just incredible. My main issue with my current stand mixer is how loud it got after 8 years of heavy use. It literally sounds like a jet engine on speed 10, and sadly the repair would cost more than a new mixer. I'm VERY impressed with that test.
Their 5.5 qt. is 600 watts. My KitchenAid is 5 qt with a 325 watt motor and whines when I make bread. I only paid $219 for my KA but I could have gotten theirs for $179....:(. PS I still LOVE my KA. Not a fan of their dough hook design. The top is a dish to catch your ingredients.
Thanks for watching. This is the third video on this brand. The company has been around for 8 years and is an OEM for major brands. It's nice they came out with their own mixer.
I'm debating between the 7.4 QT and the 8.4 QT mixer. I would like the extra capacity of the 8.4 QT but I worry that for small batches the 7.4 quart might be better what do you think Amy?
Amy usually mentions having two mixers if you have the space and the resources. A 4.5 or 5 quart for smaller jobs. I don't know if there is a major difference between the 8.4 and 7.4. Amy thinks the 8.4 might be a hair more smooth than the 8.4.
@BestDogAdventures I still haven't bought one because I'm actually thinking about saving up for the Ankarsrum. The Zacme models are impressive though for the price. I think that if I do end up with Zacme I would end up with the larger one because I don't imagine myself ever doing very small batches and the height of the beaters are adjustable. I also have a hand mixer for those really small jobs
I really wanted to buy the Zacme 5.5 Quart, but I'm thinking how difficult it would be to activate the warranty if necessary, as I live in Brazil. Even because I didn't see much information about the manufacturer...
I'm guessing the problem is with many of these brands is "how to use the warranty" if there is a problem. But even KitchenAid doesn't have very long of a warranty. I think the bigger problem is, other than replacing a mixer under warranty, is what do you do after warranty? Can you get repair parts for any of these mixers? I suppose if you only pay $100 USD for a mixer and you get 10 years out of it, or even 5 years, then that isn't much. But if you pay $400 and only get a few? But if you have one of the bigger brands and have to pay to have something repaired, you think it's gonna be cheap? Probably not, but most likely less of a cost than paying to replace it. So it's always a gamble. But this mixer was pretty smooth. I would hope it would last for some time.
I will say these Chinese appliance companies have come a long ways in reducing the "clunk" factor and producing quality. This company is an OEM supplier for other brands. So it's nice they finally came out with their own mixer. It was a pleasure to use, and that's a nice thing.
That's hust it. For years KitchenAid was top dog. Then other mixers from Europe started showing up with higher power. Same thing with dishwashers. Tall tub dishwashers from Bosh and other European companies dug into Hobart's domain. Hobart realized they couldn't compete and sold the KitchenAid division to Whirlpool. I still say the Hobart KitchenAid Superba is the best dishwasher ever made.
Impressive. It was incorporating as quick as you were loading ingredients on the shoot with the cookies. For myself now having wrist issues, I fear this would be too heavy for me to move onto the countertop to use.
Tell you what, Amy, if that mixer can handle 6 cup bread recipe, and not heat up and just plow through, it should last a good long time. I have one question, does it have a hub for grinders and other attachments?
Hi Amy! I have burned up 3 KA mixers and Im looking for a heavy duty mixer. I am thinking about a Hobart N 50, but I am unsure if I will like the soeed diffence from the KA. Price really isn't an issue. I want a mixer that will last and do the job! Help please! 😂 So many choices! Thank you!
Strange? The front shiny metal is kind of weird, but the rest isn't bad. If they were hiding a hub, then I could see that shiny thing, but we couldn't remove it, so I doubt it's a hidden hub.

Zacme 7.4 Quart Stand Mixer: amzn.to/3T4r56T
Zacme Scraper Flex Edge Paddle: amzn.to/3ww0wi3
Stainless Pouring Chute: amzn.to/48hdcqo
That mixer didn't even break a sweat in that Amy mixer challenge. Absolutely incredible..
Did much better than my KA 600 Pro does!
It's a lot quieter than the KA Pro 600.

Got to give my honest opinion, I got the 5.5 qt mixer and it is excellent. Full metal and low noise. Thanks Amy.

Amy has a new friend in the kitchen. ❤
Yes she does!
Man oh man, it’s so quiet that watching you use it is so calming. Definitely sold me on this brand.
When Amy goes "WOW!" "WHOA!" .. I have to head right over to Amazon and see the price LMAO cause you KNOW it's doing something AMAZING.. She's seen it ALL!
Great presentation. You usually bake the products you mix and show us all, how nice they mixed up and baked. Maybe next time.
Yeah, I do a slow rise in the fridge for the bread. The cookies I kept in the fridge and I baked them off just a little bit ago. I think Eric has already had 4 of them lol!
Fantastic video- just ordered this yesterday based on your terrific, detailed and helpful review video!
Wow...She's a beauty ! Loved this demo...Thank you, Amy...Great Cheerleader you've got there...🥰 !!
Also...
Amy the top silver piece in the very front slides up and off so you can add attachments also

I ❤ Y’all!!! Sis I need a mixer sooooooo bad! So I have been binge watching the channel.
I do not believe I have heard of that brand. Thank you so much!

I have one wish it had the light, the mixer is great.

Which one did you end up getting & what made you choose that one? Any regrets?

Very impressive. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for watching. We appreciate it.
Wow that’s an impressive mixer.
It sure is impressive! It was a lot of fun trying it out. It is so smooth and didn't hesitate at all. Thanks for watching, Jackie!

this mixer is something else i tell you. they are amazing and quiet

Looks like it works well for the price. And it's not excessively cheap in price, so they're not cutting corners either. Spend a little more, get more.
ZACME PUT KITCHEN AID ON NOTICE WITH THIS MIXER, METAL GEARS, METAL CABINET, BEAUTIFUL FIT AND FINISH 😊🎉😂

This model does not have a hub. The 5.5 and 8.4 have a hub, but is not compatible with KA attachments.
I like the tilt head. My mixer has bowl lift. Since I work from a seated position, I need the tilt head.

Amy I noticed in your other video the smaller 5. has a LED lighting. Does this one as well?
Wow. That is a great mixer.
KitchenAid has Ruled The Roost for nearly 100 years.... looks like they need to step up their game.😊
Zacme makes impresslive mixers!
Does it come with the side pour
Sir it come with side shute
What strange looking mixer. Looks like something out of Star Trek. LoL
