We're in the market for a good quality stand mixer - something like a Kitchen Aid or a Bosch...I think my hubby has also looked at some Cuisinart ones? Any recommendations? If you have one, what type do you have and what do you like/dislike about it? We will be shipping it overseas where it will be difficult to replace it or get parts, so I need something that will be reliable and durable. My other big consideration is that it will be able to knead at enough bread dough to do at least 2 loaves at a time, as well as any other general mixing needs.
I'd also love to know if you do have one of these types of mixers if there are any attachments you'd consider essential? I don't think we will be grinding wheat or anything. A meat grinder attachment was recommended by our colleagues where we are going since ground beef is not readily available. Any others that you'd be lost with out?
Thanks!

My oldest son dropped the bowl last year which has given it a bit of a wobble but it still works great after many years. I also have an Electrolux Assistant that I LOVE for my huge batches of bread.
