I have made pizza dough and bread with great results. I suppose it all depends on the receipe you use. My suggestion would be to visit their website or better yet call and ask them specifically. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

This was a present for my older daughter, and the results I have sampled are as good as any I have tasted. And my daughter is very health conscious and cooks the same way/

I have made pizza dough and it came out just fine. Have not tried cookie dough yet. I think it is a good machine for the money. I had my oster for 16 years before it died.

My 80 year old MIL uses this to make Gluten free bread. She's very happy with it. Not the brightest bulb in the pack at this stage and doesn't have any trouble with using this.

If you go to kitchenaid you can see the attachments. Prattle, whisk, dough hook. Kitchenaid has the pouring lid with there's , for 20.00 dollars more I think it's well worth it

Nowhere in the manufacturers literature does it mention a dough blade or that it can produce dough. Food processors are higher speed than a mixer, I highly suggest a mixer for that process, Right tool for the right job Have a great Day

My daughter wanted this and she has used it several times. I'm thinking that if I had the kitchen aid I would just get the attachment. But This machine does work good, especially for the money. It's kind of loud but it made good pasta. It's a little time consuming because you have to stand there and wait for the pasta to get the right length then cut it off with a knife. As I would assume you would have to do with most machines. Just depends on what you are looking for. We havent used it a lot so it's hard to give a good opinion on if you plan to make a lot of pasta. I'm definitely not unhappy with the purchase. Hope this helps. My daughter wanted this and she has used it several times. I'm thinking that if I had the kitchen aid I would just get the attachment.

Use the dough hook for cookie dough. It works just fine. You might have to mix for a bit longer. I'm 73 and love the fact the mixer is light weight, stores on top of a cabinet and the bowl is light enough to allow me to pour and push things out with my limited strength. Pat H. Green Bay

Yes, I just recently made a no-gluten pie crust. This little machine is very powerful, and convient. Just pulse theingredients until the mixture comes together. DO NOT hold the button down, you'll burn the motor out. As soon asthe dough was sticking together I did the rest of the work by hand. Hope this helps. Don't over load it. The Best, Truthful.

Yes, this machine is a work horse. I absolutely love my mixer. I make huge batches of whole wheat bread at least once a week. I always use the roller option, but for stiffer doughs you might want to use the dough hook. Very high quality mixer. If you're used to other machines, it may take some time to learn how to use this, but it's worth it. Absolutely the best, as far as I'm concerned.

If you are just wanting a mixer that makes smaller batches of bread, cookies, cakes, etc. then the residential model is the way to go. I purchased my commercial mixer in April and I am loving it. It is a bigger mixer and can handle larger batches of bread dough. I can attest that it makes wonderful bread. I don't have to hand knead anymore!

Hi CatYou are very welcome!!! Let me know how it goes with the Ninja. Unfortunately I had to return mine to the store because after trying mix/blending dough for bread, I think it degraded the motor because it didn't seem as powerful anymore. Anyway, good luck!

Hi all,Don't feel too bad about prices for your KitchenAid Artisan mixer in the States. I bought my wife the Empire Red one here in Australia for Christmas and it was A$730 (about US$645 at today's exchange rate). They used to be more expensive! Fantastic machine........I just wish they were a bit cheaper here!!!

I purchased mine around 6 month ago I think and have used it several times with some pretty heavy duty pasta dough (quinoa, homemade) without any problem. You might want to contact KitchenAid directly though if you want to find out if a part has been changed.

This was a gift for one of my foodie friends. He's only used it for making homemade pizza from scratch, dough and all, and LOVES it. Doubt that he's used it for cookies though. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

I wouldn't. It doesn't come with a dough blade for good reason, just pick up and feel the difference between this and just say a 7 cup Cuisinart, this one is less than half the weight. My guess is the motor/gearing is not up to that kind of long duration high stress work, if you have to do more than puree items, buy something more substantial.

Im honestly not sure of the answer. I have had this machine for almost three years (maybe more) but it is the one that I use at work. When I got it, I put all the blades away in the store room except for the ones that I would be using. I use this every day and I can tell you that's it is a GOOD machine. I work in a restaurant and I put it through some very tough times. Im just not sure about the dough blade. Did you read the item description very well, because I just cant remember.

I think it is great for pasta. I tried it mixed with all purpose flour for pizza crust, but the texture was too tough. The texture is not as fine as regular flour..

I think the Pro 600 is the greatest unit of all. I was surprised to hear that the noise it makes sits on Jillie Bean's nerves as mine is no louder than the Artisan models. I love the lift device and the fact I can place up to 14 cups of flour in it at one time. I make biscotti and anyone that has ever made them knows how stiff this dough really is. This unit handles it like nothing. In a few minutes it's all kneaded and ready to place in oven. I just love it and can't recommend it enough. It is worth every penny you pay for it.

I honestly do not know. I have only made dough in the machine so far. I read through the instructions and did not see any reference to gluten free but I would call the company or look on their website to see what is available. I hope this helps.
