Question: Would this mixer work for mixing dough for French bread
Document: I purchased this and used it for or five times for light mixing, whipping cream and potatoes. It seemed to work well until I attempted to mix a soft dough. The motor ground to halt long before the dough was anywhere near a consistency one would call a soft dough. Would never purchase a Kitchenaide product again.
I bake a lot of bread, cakes, egg dishes, whipped cream. Any recipe that requires mixing or beating can be done with this unit. The varying speed control may not be absolutely necessary for some people, but I like it because I use this mixer frequently. I use the dough hooks to mix meatloaf which requires a gentle touch to distrbute all the ingredients evenly as overmixing can produce something akin to a brick.
Unless you are making bread dough, mixing large quantities, or have a weak arm or arthritis, there is probably no need for a stand mixer. KitchenAid hand mixers will get the job done.The KHM9PWH has 9 mixing speeds. The first three speeds are slow, or stirring, speeds. Speeds 4-6 could be called medium. 7-9 are fast to superfast. To run the mixer, you first flip on the power switch on the side.
And it can mix cookie dough, at least until it forms a ball. I am sure if you hand knead a little, you can use it for mixing cookie dough too. I have used it to mix bread dough too, but I first use it to mix the dry ingredients and flavors and then add the liquid part. Then as soon as it forms a ball, I use my hand to knead it the rest of the way. Always use the lower speeds for things like cookie dough and bread dough.
Other than holding the mixer instead of letting the stand hold the mixer, you would be hard pressed to better the performance at anything close to the power of the KitchenAid 9-speed. It is able to do almost all of the tasks I would want other than maybe a large whole wheat bread dough. I could not be more pleased.
I bought this mixer thinking that it is from Kitchen Aid and relatively expensive model so the quality, durabilty AND PERFOMANCE would be good. But Kitcehn Aid proved me wrong. This expensive mixer's Beater blade broke off from the four welded places on the shaft while mixing ingadients for a pie. We have used this mixer infrequently for light duty mixing work. I called Kitchen Aid but they refused to send a replacement blade becasue the mixer is now just outside the warranty.
Those work much better for items like double batch/large batch of cookies, bread doughs, etc.
Growing up, my mom & grandmother would have to toss out electric hand mixers because the motors would burn out when mixing a big batch of stiff cookie dough. I purchased this Kitchenaid 9-speed mixer because I didn't want that to happen to me. It's been over a year, and the motor has worked perfectly, even though I make a cake or bake cookies at least once a week (usually twice a week).
We wanted a top quality mixer ,but had little counter space.We also wanted  plenty of power for cookie dough and sometimes bread dough this does it all, power ,comfort and low noise .Wished we had it  years ago. Oh, the dough hooks are a must if your bake your own bread. The beaters just about clean themselves,great product!
We have had this now just over 3 years and it is still going strong. I know to not use it on bread dough, for example, but it handles cookie dough well. It is amazingly quiet compared to others I have owned. Until this one, we were having to get a new mixer pretty much every year. We just burned through them. It has already paid for itself with not having to be replaced in 3 years!!
Answer: No, beyond what it is made to do.  That would be something for the table top mixer.  (It might get it done if it were a small quantity, but it would not be what it is made to do.)
