Joydeem 5.3Qt Electric Dough Maker with Seasonal Fermentation, HMJ-A501

This dough maker has been really convenient for handling larger batches. The 7.4 quart size is spacious enough that I don't feel like I'm constantly worried about overfilling it when mixing dough. The mixing action does a solid job combining ingredients evenly, and it takes a lot of the manual effort out of the early dough stage. I also like having the ferment function built in since it keeps everything in one machine instead of needing separate setups or extra containers. In terms of noise, it's noticeable while it's running, especially during heavier mixing, but it's not overly loud or disruptive. It sounds like a steady motor doing its job rather than anything concerning. For value, it feels pretty reasonable for what it offers. Having both mixing and fermentation in one unit saves time and space, and it reduces the need for extra equipment, which makes it feel worth it if you bake often. Overall, it's a helpful machine if you work with dough often and want something that handles both mixing and fermentation in one unit.

I have arthritis in my hands and just can't thoroughly knead bread dough. I have been using my stand mixer but still my sourdough bread came out rather flat. Using a dough mixer was suggested in a video I saw so it was the last thing to try before giving up. It worked great! It mixes and pauses repeatedly then goes into a rest cycle you can adjust the time on. For sourdough it is 120 minutes. Then you take the dough out, shape it and put it in a banneton then refrigerate to let it ferment to get a good flavor. It made the best loaves I ever got. I think this might be a model that will be replaced with a newer one. It had a good price and wasn't quite as pretty as the new model. But it is good enough for me and since I wasn't sure how much I would use it the cheaper price seemed good to me. It is a little noisy but not more than my stand mixer. I only make one loaf at a time so the size was great for me. It will do more than one loaf at a time but I'm not sure how many. It has super strong suction cups that hold it firmly on the countertop. That is good when it is working but kind of a pain to try to move it to wash the counter. Overall a really good dough mixing machine.

Bought the 5.3 qt machine for using with fresh milled hard red and white wheats especially since my Kitchen Aid was really struggling with dough. It works all the dough, including denser bagel dough, I put through it, beautifully! It has a constant stop and start (every 10 seconds) which was slightly annoying at first but I barely notice it now. It's handled fresh flour dough up to 1100 g without issue so far and I am thrilled I didn't have to spend hundreds on a bigger machine. Hopefully it will have a good long, life!! Highly recommend!!

Bought the smallest size and it is perfetto for 2 to 4 people. Mixed very well and the heated proof function made prep easy.

I am very pleased with this Dough Maker. It is light and small , mixes great and the fermenting works perfect. Due to being in a cold climate I use the extra heat and it is working great. I have no trouble making a large loaf, but this is a smaller unit. For me that is a plus as its so easy to store. The two things I don't like about it are: If you want to cancel out the timer on mix or ferment once set you have to unplug and re plug it in. So if I set 15 mins mix but after 10 mins I am done with mixing and want to then set my ferment I cant do a long press on the start button to cancel that I have to unplug it. The stainless steel bowl is kind of weird how the dough really sticks to it. I am guessing that it is a cheaper quality of stainless as I do not see this happening in other bowls I have made bread in. It is a shame as it makes getting your mixed dough out a bit of a mess and challenge. I would sill buy this again as I have tried two other dough mixers and I sent them back as the fermenting just did not get warm enough, although their bowls were much better.

Love love love this dough maker! Easier and better to make dough than my KitchenAid. It is truly a set it and somewhat forget it system and makes my brioche beautifully.

I watched numerous reviews and had high hopes for this product. Unfortunately, the unit I received runs for only 45 seconds before power resetting itself. If this machine can't handle 500 grams of 75% hydrated flour, it’s completely useless. I sent it back, as I really wanted it to work. Honestly, anytime I buy a product on Amazon from a random, unknown brand with generic names like 'Joy, Sun, Dragon, etc." in the name, it turns out to be total junk." One would think that I would learn.

I don’t usually write reviews unless the product is great or horrible or just bad delivery. We’ve had lots of food busted during the delivery process. However, we do order from Amazon a lot so on this review I will tell you this machine is awesome if you love making homemade pie crusts! I mean it is wonderful and does all the work for you. I plan on using it for bread too but like I say if you love making pies with homemade dough, you will absolutely love this machine! It’s worth every penny!

Súper recomendable, deja el amasado perfecto, le caben 2 kilos le harina aproximadamente, Pero si lleva levadura y se deja leudar solo 1 kilo por qué duplica si tamaño.

Great dough making machine. I make a sourdough bread every Friday and this machine works just perfectly. It allows to proof as well, just for sourdough the temperature is little high, but for regular active yeast works fine.

Really does the job nicely for you. Love the fact that the dough rise in the appliance. After it done all the hard work for you, you just have to bake it.

This thing works amazingly I lo e it. Didn't think I would use it and now I am glad I have it.

One of the best dough mixers we used. Just put 2 cups of flour and 1 cup of water and the dough is ready in a few minutes.
