Globe SP05 5 Qt. Bowl Lift Countertop Mixer with Guard & Standard Accessories - 120V, 1/5 hp

10/5 possible stars. This thing is a beast. I make lots and lots of french bread, and this monster powers right thru. Doesn't even break a sweat when doing anything smaller. The 10 speed control is awesome and it can be adjusted to any speed in need. The dial is great, and so is not being limited to 3 speeds on a lever. The 3 attachments are fully stainless and can take a beating as well. If you are a small shop that a large 10qt mixer is just too big, but the lighter duty smaller mixers just are not powerful enough, this is the mixer to get.

we bought a total of 11 of these mixers so for! they are a great price for a hard working machine, they are so much better than the 5qt Hobart mixers that we have. would gladly buy this over Hobart any day

Had this unit for a bit over 8 months now. Works great and is priced really well vs. competitors. Will be my go to mixer in the future.

Initially I was worried about purchasing this mixer because there are very few reviews online or on YouTube videos for the Globe SP5. I am very happy I purchased the Globe and not the Kitchen Aid products. This mixer is primarily used for making bread. I use a 68% - 72% mix and it powers through as if its cake batter. I mean absolutely no resistance. Makes a smooth supple dough. There had been a review on this mixer that stated the dough hook does not mix well. I found that with a small batch 500g flour that I had to scrape the sides a couple of times but anything over 750g no scraping or problems at all. Also the Kitchen Aid attachments fit the #10 drive and so dose the "C dough hook OEM Kitchen Aid" so it seems to me that a lot of the parts are interchangeable. The reason I Read More

Do not waste your money on this thing. The gears are plastic. Believe or not, we had been using it for whipped cream only in our bakery...it broke after 7 weeks.

I don't like that you can't tilt the head up but the mixer does well.

Good so far. Not sure if it will last as long as a kitchen aid. It seems to struggle with light batters, so I am hesitant to use it for dough.

This is the worst mixer I have ever owned. I am going on my third mixer in 2 years. All I use it for is cake batter and frosting. I have had a kitchenaid mixer for 9 years and it is still going strong. It is a smaller kitchenaid and I mix them same things in it. I will never again waste my money on a Globe mixer.

I have had this mixer a few months now, and made single loaves of bread, pizza dough, and pasta. I stay within the manufacturer's weight/speed maximums and have had no issues. The pasta is especially nice, and comes out far better than it did when I made it in the food processor.

I am so in love with my Globe SP5 it is as described not loud and mix well. My only dislike is that it is narrow for me to scrap the sides. Later I will post photos or videos. But besides the narrow bowl it is a great machine. Oh I made my Brown sugar pecan Carmel pound cake delicious lol.
