Kenwood Titanium Chef Baker XL, Kitchen Machine with K-Whisk, Stand Mixer with Kneading Hook, Whisk and 6,7L Bowl, KVL85.004SI Power 1200W, Silver

I had never used a Kenwood mixer before and honestly didn't really see the point. This was until my mum treated herself to one in order to make my wedding cakes. I loved it so much that my husband and I got one as a wedding present afterwards. Once you've used it, you can never go back!The in-built scales and two mixing bowls save so much faff. The splash cover means I can mix icing sugar without it covering every item in the kitchen with a layer of white dust and you can add liquid ingredients without stopping the mixer. All the attachments are very effective. My favourite is the creaming tool - it scrapes the edges down so well and is amazing for beating butter. I've used the mixer mostly for making cake batter, but also used the hook to make pizza dough.The mixer is very heavy and quite large. It's currently taking up an entire cupboard by itself and I have to take care lifting it out. I also wish it had the light and the warming feature that the fancier models have, but I couldn't justify the extra cost. It's an expensive item, but it is so versatile and meant to be very long lasting. If you bake regularly, it will change your life!

What an excellent product. Ive found my love of baking again. It’s a decent size machine and a lovely colour. The splash guard is a welcome extra. The weight function is fabulous and a great time saver. Mixers the ingredients very well. Small downside is the bowl doesn’t have a handle.

It’s brilliant love it

Love it! Nice and big! Sturdy and way to use.

I have only used it once so have given 4stars. Never having owned a mixer before, this machine looks premium and solidly made. And the motor guarantee is 10years from Kenwood.The parts are heavy duty even the attachments.I've made bread using Ikg of flour (spelt, rye and oat flour , yoghurt, ground wild rice, molasses, honey, water, yeast )to give it a workout. I thought I'd have to keep stopping the machine to scrape the sides of the bowl as that what it looked like initially then decided to see what would happen if i didn't- It just kept going until eventually until every last bit of the dough was gathered together into a ball.The dough can be left in the bowl to prove.Washing was easy.I've not tried the other attachments or functions.

I bought this as a birthday present for my elderly mum. She makes her own bread and was using a cheap stand mixer to knead the bread dough but it didnt last long before broke. This device is on a different level completely. Its well made and very sturdy. It hardly moves around when its kneading dough. Shes had this sometime now and shes very pleased with iit
