I bought this as a gift for my daughter. I bought this as a gift for my daughter. When I visited her and saw her food processor, I was disappointed that it was not as heavy as mine. The weight might be a factor, but I have not asked her if hers is working well. My KitchenAid is an older model. Don't think it's your fault. w

I've not tried making dough with this. So far it seems to have adequate power for everything I need to do.

It was likely overloading the motor, I love my Kitchen Aid mixer but I have been beyond disappointed in the food processor. I tried to make peanut butter and it couldn't hack it the motor kept stopping. I had a cheapy $40 food processor before this one and it was better than this. Good luck, have you had any luck trying to slice veggies without them all getting stuck up in the lid?

The paddle sat in the machine rather loosely, I thought, and it did get stuck for me..in fact, was the reason the thing quit working maybe. I tried two of these machines...both of them broke down so I gave up completely. If I get another bread machine it won't be Panasonic, unless they make me an "offer I can't refuse."

Use the warranty. If You call and are lucky enough to get some one who isn't riding a Motor Cycle, yes he did give me the answer, however it was through much repetition and wind noise. Finding assistance on this product is almost nill and I was lucky to have got what I wanted. I might recommend the other bakers models that are not as powerful and you can see for yourself the likes and dislikes. I wish you luck, maybe, just maybe they changed there business practices, so I wish luck.

So sorry. I haven't used it as yet. Will be using it to bake for Xmas. Will let you know then.

I usually mix about 4 cups of flour in my bread recipe and it works fine. Last time I doubled my recipe and it mixed up OK, but there was straining so I think it was too much.

I've kneaded bread dough with my mixer twice and it has worked perfectly. I wonder if you might not have the dough hook inserted properly. The dough needs to be the right consistency, of course, so it's important to add flour to make it so. I had stopped making bread because I have arthritis and the kneading would cause such pain. I LOVE the dough hook on this machine and am so happy to be able to make bread again!!!

I love this bread maker for what it was intended, making bread, so with that said, I went through the book that came with it and it mentioned nothing about pasta or pizza. I don't know what it takes to make pasta dough but my wife has made pizza dough dough in it and she just knows when to take the dough out for pizza dough.

I was making hummus the other day and the machine could barely keep up. I doubt it could make a pasta dough, maybe a medium thick batter. Go for more power. Otherwise very happy with the versatility of the unit.

Did you open the top while it was baking? That can prevent proper baking. Otherwise you could just have a defective machine. Try to get a replacement and then bake another loaf.

I suggest you go see the manufacturer's site to see videos of how it works and also on Youtube by searching "ActiFry". I had a look on how puri is made and I think it will not work in this machine because this machine stirs constantly. It could also get stuck as the dough is very soft material.

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.

Yes but getting the right consistency in this machine is difficult. Doing small amounts seem to work ok. I get frustrated when making a full batch because I have to keep taking it all apart and adding more flour. It tends to clump up. When I get it right it's really good

I'm sorry I can't help you, I do not like this machine because it's not sturdy and gets too hot while holding it down, after my first use I stored it away so I have not had to replace anything, had I used it as soon as I bought it I would have sent it back.....quickly!!!!

I would guess that you have too much dough or that the dough is too hard/cold.

The machine is not powerful enough- in fact if you load it over half way with nuts it starts to bog down- I believe you will burn out the motor if you try pie crust.

i haven't yet, but there is a recipe for it in the book that comes with it. the machine buzzes at the different stages so that you could add things or remove the dough at the correct phase.

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