Tilt-head or bowl-lift, which should I buy?

Reviewer consensus

Reviewers frame this as occasional baking versus heavy dough. Tilt-head models (Classic, Artisan) are easier to access and store and handle cookies, cakes and lighter dough well. Bowl-lift models are described across communities as sturdier with roughly double the in-bowl power, better for stiff doughs like bagels and bread, but heavier and bulkier on the counter.
