does this machine make pie like coconut cream or open faced pies?

I don't know about the conconut cream, but yes I have made peach cobbler and other pies with you top shell.

No, it's for pies that use an upper & lower crust. Fruit or savory type pies. You close the lid for cooking so it would make a mess and probably not cook properly at all without an upper crust.

Unfortunately I don't know the answer to this question. I only use clear jel for making apple pie filling.

Don't know. Sorry, I've only used once and had trouble with the crust slipping from the edging. Probably me, but I find myself returning to my glass pie pans.

No. Slow, or anything close, is NOT something this machine can do. Even level 1 is fast enough that it was difficult to keep all ingredients in the large bowl. Another noteworthy issue, is that on the bottom of one of the beaters is a small tip which does not allow the beater to reach the very bottom of the mixing bowl, therefore, creaming butter and sugar is difficult during hand-held method. This machine does not possess the ability to cream butter and sugar in stand-alone mode unless the quantity is VERY large.

No, but it wasn't very complicated. The worst part is it's weight, very heavy. Haven't used it much, but am happy with it so far. The pizza cooking area is small though, max size for a pie is about 12". Love the look and construction, though. Hope this helps, Lisa.

Yes, there is an attachment to make mini pie crust toppers. I haven't made any with this so not sure how well it works. I made shortcakes and.... It was messy, good but messy.

It makes a 4 1/4" diameter size pie. You can also choose a solid top crust or a lattice cut top crust. and though the pie maker is 2.4 inches as listed it only makes pies of 1-1/2" thickness.

I actually have not made pie crust with it yet, that was going to be an adventure for this weekend. Sorry!

sorry, I can't help you. I returned the dessert maker a couple of years ago. I did not like it, it never worked properly.I don't like products made by cuisinart.

Yes it sure does. I love mine. In fact, I just made a cherry pie with cherries that I picked from the tree in our yard.

Do to know because I have never tried it. Makes great cobblers and brownies though!

This machine is good for making pie crusts or even pizza dough... but not kneading dough in the process for making bread.

I vacillate between cashew cookie, coconut cream pie, tropical fruit tart and banana bread being my favorite. The only one I really don't like is cherry pie, but I know a lot of people love it, different strokes! I wish I could find a carrot cake to try!

If not exact, very close to it, it's super easy to adjust and use. I had to thinly slice 27 apples for a pie I made and I did it in about 2 minutes. It's a great piece of equipment!

It does one setting.... I guess the smoothness depends on the amount of oil put in (coconut oil tastes the best). I don't recommend this product. It's too small and too week, it could barely handle almonds and that's after I had already cut up the nuts into fine pieces. You mine as well use a food processor or find a better machine. It was a waste of my money and an embarrassing Christmas gift since it didn't work well :(

Actually yes, but remember they will cook quickly as they will be closer to the baking coils. :D Just watch for browning all the way around thru the viewing window. Can also bake small pies in a pie tin, cook crust first, till lightly brown, then add filling.

Well, my quiches have crust, but I have never tried anything like that. I believe after using this it works best for pies that have crust bottoms and tops. Great for hand held pot pies and fruit filled pies. There is a food truck in our town that sells little pies that look just like these sold as hand held pies!
