Let me start by saying this Saizeriya dough maker has completely transformed my baking game. The first time I used it to make pizza dough, I was blown away by how perfectly it kneaded the dough - something I could never achieve by hand.

The 5L stainless steel bowl is spacious enough for large batches, though I did notice it's slightly thinner than expected. During my testing, I made everything from artisan bread to pretzels, and the results were consistently impressive.

What really stands out is the fermentation function. My kitchen tends to be cold, but this machine maintained a perfect 80°F for proofing. Pro tip: cover it with a towel during fermentation for even better results!

The included egg beater attachment was a pleasant surprise. I tested it making pancakes batter and it worked beautifully - though switching between attachments takes some getting used to.

A few quirks: The instruction manual is practically useless (lost in translation), and there's no continuous knead-then-ferment program - you have to restart the machine. Also watch out for oil residue when you first unpack it.

Despite these minor issues, after two months of heavy use (I bake 3-4 times weekly), this has become my most-used kitchen appliance. The suction cups keep it stable during operation, and cleanup is surprisingly easy.

If you're serious about baking but dread hand-kneading, this machine is absolutely worth the investment. Just be prepared for your home to smell like an artisan bakery all the time!
