Does it have a dough cycle?

Yes - it does have a dough cycle. It runs 1hr, 50 min, but you can set your own personalized cycle. The dough cycle is the only setting I use - works great!

It really does not have a dough only setting but you can let it mix, do a rise and remove it at any time then and make like a French loaf shape..I did that today. Worked! Also it beeps between settings so it alerts you to the times to either add, or remove the mixing blade before the second rise and baking...I do like it, the only thing is it is tall and for a short person hard to read the settings...

No it does not, it works well and is just like other yeast products. I've always had positive results with this product. If your going total Italian style pizza. Use Italian products including water. Magnifico!

No it does not, but it is a great oven especially with the built in panini press.

No but I've made a ton of pizza's on it. My dough recipe is a winner--4 C flour, 1 1/2 C water, 1T Salt 1T bakers yeast, 1 T brown sugar. I put it in breadmaker and press "9" for dough. This makes four 13" pizzas. When pressed for time i just buy the Boboli crusts at the grocery store. you can find a ton of recipes on line / youtube. One of the best food investments i've made (ranks among espresso machine, Weber gas grill, Boos cutting board and Pastry scraper)

Not especially. In fact, when you first turn it on, while already in the bowl with the ingredients, it seemed to give a sudden burst, instead of starting up slowly as I was led to believe it would. But, at it's Slow speed, it did NOT have very much power at all, which led me to crank up the speed in order to get anything mixed (usually cookie dough or cake batters).I was quite surprised and disappointed with this mixer in general. I thought a super-duper "powerful" Cuisinart hand mixer would be great, but I guess I was wrong, and have since purchased another Kitchenaid hand mixer, which is what I had, and was happy with, for lots and lots of years before I switched.

No it does not. And I fill it to the top with some dense recipes. Also when full and trying to move it it'll bow a little until u set it down again in the oven. It holds it shape very well.

No mine didn't. Just the beaters. It does work great - even bought the dough beaters extra and it is easy to use.

No, it doesn't, but we ordered the mix on Amazon. It was a good tasting dough, too.

No, the bottom always rotates. But it would heat a single slice pretty fast, even rotating.

After it is done kneading the first time, it does a little beep, at least with basic bread it did. For changing pounds, you do that once you select the program mode. Press lbs button to change to 2 and select crust for whatever shade you want, to me Medium is good. Again, I only have made pizza dough and basic white bread, but should be same basic process

I have made a potatoe starter recipe on the dough cycle and it works just fine. I half my recipe because I'm afraid 6 cups of flour might be too much for it to mix properly. One problem I have with my machine on the dough cycle is the timer doesn't beep at the end anymore. It has quit working.

Yes, with some difficulty. You have to set a separate timer to remove the paddle before the last rise. You set the machine on pause, take the dough out and then put it back in and push start to finish the cycle.

Yes it kneads dough. You have to use warm ingredients otherwise the yeast doesn't rise. Check a yeast recipe for the recommended temp.Don't use more than 4 cups of flour. I tried 5 cups but it stalled the machine. The unit does not come with a dough blade. You use the sharp s blade.

No, this mixer burned up within a couple of years; we used it maybe once a month for pizza dough. I would not recommend this mixer at all, it looks good, but it is not heavy duty enough for a serious kitchen.

I have never used this option, so I have no idea. I would suggest you do what I have found to be the best option with this machine: use the dough cycle (which takes 90 minutes), take the dough out and shape it or let it rise one more time and then shape it and let it rise again before baking in the oven.

No, it should move freely on it's own. It acts much differently within the dough. Happy baking!
