The MIU looks good, except I sure wish one of the reviews said something
about removing berry seeds.

I'm thinking about presenting the options to my DH. When I was shopping for
a stand mixer, I told him there was a model on sale for under $250 with a
325 watt motor. I thought it would do the job. There were other modles,
including one with a 575 watt motor that was on sale for $400+. He looked
at me like I was nuts and said, "You should always buy the one with the
biggest motor."

I haven't yet had occasion to make 8 loaves of bread at once, but I like
that I can should I want to.
