I had two of these, and in cooking for the SCA they both simply wore out.

If you're cooking for just one household/family, its wonderful (even

But once you start doing the very heavy duty cooking of a feast for 100, 
making bread, etc., it just doesn't hold up.

I miss my Oster kitchen centers, but ... oh well.
