Classy mixe
The design of the lock and release of the bowl needs to be revised. I do find it a struggle mounting the bowl and locking it.
Nice looking stand mixe
Had a Kenwood for 30yrs so this is an upgrade. Generally very happy with new model but it is very heavy & the glass bowl makes it heavier
Will definitely invest in a stainless steel bowl in the future
Very good
Good weight so it doesn’t move alot when mixing although if you make 1kg of dough then expect it to move somewhat.
I’ve had no issue with the plastic part on the bottom of the bowl yet, but it seems solid and not likely to snap anytime.
Great power options
So, far- so good
Only had product a few weeks, but it has been as expected so far. Would recommed
Warehouse deal has missing parts
I didn’t get exactly what was described on “warehouse” deals. There are missing parts.
I love it.
I love my mixer, the best thing about it is the splash guard as using a hand held splashes everywhere. My baking has come on in leaps and bounds.
4 cakes down and 2 pizza weekends
A great standmixer, does everything you expect it would at this price. Other reviews mention bowl getting stuck which is true and the solution is to oil the base which works fine. Until the one time I forgot.
The only downside side is the huge glass bowl which compared to the metal one is huge. At some point it will be replaced.
The other issue is the mixing attachment does not reach the bottom of the bowl so you end up having to stop the machine and the scrape by hand then turn it on again until the mixer has picked everything up.
Overall a great product.
Great produc
Still in early use so remains to be seen how it will hold up over time. But a great product with all the attachments you could need for baking included. Can support a fairly large amount of dough to knead and has turned out some great stuff so far. Would recommend!
Tip for anyone looking for this to knead dough for bread / cinnamon rolls etc, use a low speed (around speed: 1)
Makes great dough for bread
After many disasters not building gluten by hand-kneading, we got this. Yes, expensive I know… but we have guaranteed baked bread each time now and we can use this for other forms of baking.
Great addition to the kitchen – we bought black which was 200 cheaper than the exact same model in red. So if colour matching the kitchen is more important than the products you make – go for the more expensive models.
I always wanted a Kenwood mixer - now I have one and I love it!
I have bought a few cheaper mixers over several years and often on the basis that a 1500 watt motor should adequately deal with my few-times-a-week bread making (I don’t like supermarket bread). Often these necessitated frequently stopping the mixer in order to scrape the dough from the sides into the middle of the mixer bowl but I assumed (in my ignorance) that this was normal. My initial concern with buying the Kenwood was that it is only a 1000 watt motor and possibly weaker than those mixers I’ve previously owned but how wrong I was! The Kenwood is a significantly different machine. It mixes effortlessly and in a shorter time than my previous machines. I noted too that the machine head does not rock up and down noisily like all of the cheap versions I have previously owned.
With reference to the complaints I have seen in other reviews about the glass bowl locking into place, I used a little smear of vegetable oil on the base and resisted twisting the bowl into its locked position. I have had no difficulties in that regard at all.
Powerful but quie
Because I make my own bread ,this is a boon when it comes to kneading the dough. Have not tried it on cake mixes yet, but I do not see any problems with that.
Versatile piece of kitchen ki
This is a piece of equipment that has speeded up my enjoyment of creating nice and unusual dishes
Good looking and useful
Very much like the price i paid, good offer. Very good looking , easy to use and reasonably easy to clean.
Very heavy bowl
Very pleased with this mixer, with just a couple of negatives. The mixing bowl is incredibly heavy and could be an issue for people with arthritis or weakness in the wrists. Also I couldn’t remove the bowl after the 2nd use. After some investigations on the internet I found the answer was a spray of WD40 round the base which worked a treat. I now keep the can in with my baking stuff!! I have only had to use it once though.
Great buy
I’d been deliberating for some time on buying a Kmix but the expense had been putting me off, I made the decision finally to buy one and I’m so glad I did. I’ve used it so far for cake mixing and pastry which has made my life so much easier. I’m really pleased with the results especially with the pastry. I store it on my new kitchen worktop as it is too heavy to keep lifting and it looks so chic in the grey. I will be using it for many years to come.
Kenwood mixe
Very sturdy, easy to use, easy to follow instructions, great value, the versatility is great as you can make so much with no effo
Solid and quie
I bought this because my food processor gets hot kneading bread. This does a great job, is quiet and cool.
Great Mixe
As you would expect from the Kenwood range of mixers, well made, reliable and easy to use.
Great quality
It arrived with a glass bowl, which was in several pieces . I have now got metal bowl. Very happy
Heavy duty
It does the job, but heavy to move, especially the bowl.Sturdy hope it lasts
it works well and saves you a lot of energy stirring cakes etc
My wife has had Kenwood chef mixers for 45 years (had 2 in that time). So as this is only the second that gives you some idea of how well they work and last.
Great mixer.
My second kenwood mixer but this one has a larger glass bowl. It’s pretty heavy compared to the metal one and I read reviews about the plastic ring at the bottom of the glass bowl cracking and breaking. I understand this could easily happen if pressure is put on when clicking the bowl into place but I find taking it easy and carefully placing it on should help. It’s a quiet mixer and very easily worked.
Great product which made my wife very happy!
Bought this for my wife’s birthday. She loves it! Has made her baking much easier- she now adds all the ingredients to the (very sturdy) glass bowl which comes with the product, clicks it into place and turns it on. Job done. Then she just transfers mixture to the oven. So easy! Plus, it has lots of attachments for when she wants to try something adventurous. There’s even a catalogue of other attachments you can buy for specialised stuff. Really good buy.
Bowl stuck in stand
I love my mixer, so easy to make bread with the dough hook attachment.
Would have preferred a stainless steel bowl as the glass one is so heavy.
First time I used the mixer the bowl got stuck on the stand. Googled this and it seems to be a common problem with several makes of stand mixers. Finally managed to feel it after much wiggling and some brute force. It is ok now but doesn’t lock into place in the position shown in the instructions but not a problem as it locks into place and unlocks easily now.
If yours gets stuck YouTube have videos showing how to free the bowl!
Great heavy duty mixe
What can I say.. It’s certainly a solid bit of kit.. Very useful and a good bit of torque to mix those dough’s. The splash guard is a good idea and already saved me a lot of clean up time 🙂 (don’t turn the dial up full then turn your back.. lol) Nice that the speed is gradual upto your setting.
Bowl itself is really heavy duty and so expect it to be heavy.
Only downside I can see is the weight I’m gaining, and word getting around I’ve started baking again 😮
It’s definitely not a top shelf storage item, as I said before, it has some weight to it, but that being said, it doesn’t move around when mixing.
Bowl is so heavy
Thr mixer itself is amazing. Unfortunately the bowl is so heavy we had to pay another 80 pounds to replace it with an aluminium one .
Expensive enough .
I like i
I am so glad I made the investment. I really enjoy baking and the kMix makes it even more fun. Can’t do less than 3 egg whites. And the glass bowl is a bit heavy, but you can see the progress of mixing.
Big size bowl fabulous to use
Love this mixer,made lemon cake today my first usage of mixer. Easy to use easy clean and sturdy
Great Mixer bu
The mixer works well but there are 2 small problems:
1. It is a bit hard to lock the bowl as per the instructions.
2. When I make a small dough the head of the mixer jump.
Lovely
Best mixer ever, I already used it 4 times, you can’t have better than this
I used also to make bread the dough comes up very nice and smooth.
Frustrating start when bowl stuck
Once you have it set up it’s great but if you lock in the bowl firmly you could end up with it stuck. You have to make sure the part attached to the bowl is on tight before locking into the machine or it will end up stuck.
Happy overall
On the whole I’m very happy with this appliance. It has certainly lightened the workload when knocking up dough for baguettes, pizza, naans and donuts and making cakes is a pleasure.
As some have said, it is a little noisy and the glass bowl is very heavy. The plastic ring at the bottom of said bowl is probably not the best of materials. Metal or rubber may have been a better choice. While I have not broken it, I can see how this might occur. It is perhaps advisable not to lock the bowl in too tight. Doing so could lead to stressing the collar and also result in making the bowl difficult to remove.
Care also has to be taken to mixing ingredients. It is important to periodically use the plastic spatula to scrape the sides when mixing in order to get uniform mixing and avoid clumps of unmixed clumps of butter in a cake mixture for example.
In terms of the heavy, and perhaps poorly designed, glass bowl, it might be worth considering the metal bowl which can be purchased separately – though at over 80 is somewhat expensive.
Grea
Came with damaged bowl retaining ring looked like it was an intended design. After a couple of uses it
disintegrated sent off for replacement realized the first was actually broken . But it works well
First class mixe
Bought this to replace my old Kenwood that died after 12 years faithful service. Things I love – glass bowl, volume of bowl, range of beaters (bought the spatula one too), range of attachments (bought the mincer), and the over all look of the kMix. This was a definite upgrade for me and it manages volumes of bread and pizza dough with little effort. There’s nothing I dislike about this mixer!
Quality
Excellent addition ,i brought this mixer as i like making bread,i did have bread maker they don’t seem to last long.
Perfect for making bread
This is the first stand mixer I have owned so I don’t have anything to compare it with but what a great investment it was. The mixer is sturdy and the strong motor copes well with large quantities of bread dough. I am using it about 5 times per week or more, mainly to make bread of varying types but I have also used it for cake mixing. The glass bowl is great because I can see what’s happening in the bowl and it is very easy to wash up after. It is quite heavy but I like that. When mixing dough, it doesn’t really cope well with smaller quantities and probably needs at least a 400g of flour mix but that’s fine. I would definitely recommend this to anyone thinking of buying a new stand mixer.
Best mixer eve
The machine works perfectly for whatever you make. Wish I’d had one years ago
Great mixer, but the bowl is heavy!
Fantastic mixer. I’ve had mine nearly 6 months now and have used it to make all sorts of doughs and cakes. The only downside is that I wish I’d got the version with the metal bowl. The included glass one is very heavy and doesn’t really offer much benefit. Really not sure what other people are doing to their bowls to break the plastic ring at the bottom. Mine has been absolutely fine!
Easy to use and clea
Smooth working machine with all the basic accessories you need to start baking/pasta making
Good piece of equipme
This was a present for a family member, who is also a chef, and he is very happy with it.
Great mixer, with a small flaw.
Great mixer, very easy to use. Only issue is the small flaw in the design. The glass bowl retaining ring breaks easily when locking the glass bowl in place. You cant be too heavy handed, you will need to twist it in place very gently. Kenwood replaced it without quibble within 5 working days. I was told it was common, and the design had been improved on more recent models. It would also not be an issue if you went for the stainless steel bowl rather than glass one.
However, I would still recommend this product highly.
Great, useful kitchen aid
Great product.
Really easy to use and clean
Good price.
Would use agai
Great product.
Wonderful machine that does everything we ask it to. Very easy to use
This mixer is very heavy to handle - it woud not suit everybody.
Dislike the heaviness of the mixer and bowl – very clumsy to handle.
So far it does the job, but I imagine I will not get it out to use if a hand mixer would do
the same task..
Gift.
This was bought as a Christmas present for my husband. He is absolutely delighted with the Kenwood K, and has been put to use from the off.
Excellent produc
Excellent product.
Good price.
Already ordered another one for a family member.
Would use again.
Excellent machine
You get what you pay for
Excellent machine, well made and sturdy
Well recommended
Fabulous
Does what it says on the tin and looks fab
Great Quality
Excellent quality, good design and very sturdy Bowel. Lid is good idea with opening. Love the mixer.
Great Product for cakes / bread
Super product and fresh baking smells fill the house! Lovely cakes & bread – 1st class & highly recommend.
Great of on offe
This is a great piece of equipment and had made light work of cake and dough making.
That said, the glass bowl is very very heavy to the extent I’ll need to buy the lighter metal one. The splash guard feels very flimsy and I suspect unless really treated with kid gloves it will break. The latter would not stop me buying it again at this price (199), but if it was full price of seriously consider looking at the KitchenAid or alternatives.
Good quality
Lovely sturdy mixer, easy to use, looks great and so far the cakes have been great too! Have wanted one of these for a long time, pleased I finally bought one
Beautiful mixer at brilliant price!
I was a little dubious of ordering something second hand off Amazon as I had never done before, but when I unpacked this even though it said there was some ‘scratches’ it looks perfect and as good as new! I am so happy with this, as it was under half price of any other mixer from any other retailers. Came with all the attachments. Ordered and got this delivered the next day! Is very quiet and looks beautiful compared to other mixers that are bulky. The glass mixer jug is super handy too!
Sturdy, easy to use and good looking!
I wasn’t sure that I would use the mixer enough to justify the space it takes. But it is so easy to use (and to clean afterwards) that I am using it more and more. Many tasks are quicker not only because of the efficiency of the mixer but because I can do other stuff whilst it whisks.
It does the job properly
It is brilliant. Simple to use. Made really well. Couldn’t be happier – and now it’s homemade bread and butter all the time.
Great price.
Great value for money a great addition to my kitchen, home baking has just become easier.
I had this for a week and a bit now and I an very happy. I’ve bought it for making bread dough and I could not be more pleased. I read the reviews about the glass bowl base being easily damaged so I’ve bought a stainless steel bowl too. The price was brilliant , even with buying an extra bowl, it still turned out 50 cheaper than other shops. The quality of this mixer is brilliant, the accessories that came with it are made of strong metal and the speeds are perfect. I made cakes, home made mayo and bread so far.
This was bought to replace a cheap stand mixer whose beaters fell to pieces. Its problem is the difficulty of removing the glass bowl from the base. The first time I used it I was virtually on the point of returning it, but suddenly it unlocked. It seems vital to turn the bowl only about an inch when unlocking. Looking online, this jamming of the bowl is very common.
It is not as good as the old Andrew James mixer about leaving mixture at the side of the bowl. Regular scraping down is needed.
Otherwise it does a good job. If I had paid full price though, I would be unimpressed.
Easy to use
I was lucky to get this mixer as a Black Friday bargain. I love it. My only complaint is that the bowl is difficult to remove from the stand after use…but my husband can get the bowl off the stand. I haven’t made much with it so far but what I have made has been very successful.
Terry
It’s good products. Value for money and easy for use
My beautiful mixe
I loved the price because it had 50% off
What’s not to love. Have wanted one for ages
Very happy it’s beautiful
Amazing produc
As described, easy to use and to clean .Very happy with my purchase.Thank you
So far so good.
I love it, am enjoying trying out different recipes, only draw back is the glass bowl which although lovely is extremely heavy even when empty, I’m probably going to purchase a metal bowl later.
Kenwood mixe
First use and the bottom piece that keeps the bowl in broke not so good
Love it!
Absolutely love this mixer and it makes my cakes rise so well
Great mixer but Don’t forget to buy beating creamer attachment as well
Excellent mixer, Pity beating creamer not an attachment included, couldn’t use it until I’d bought that as well
Great machine
Bowl is super and feels unbreakable. Love the lid which keeps flour from flying away when I make my bread.
Let me start by saying that it’s a great stand mixer, powerful, controllable, well made and fairly quiet.
It does however have one well documented flaw and that’s the glass bowl, more specifically the plastic ring on the bottom of the bowl.
Third time my wife used the mixer the bowl refused to release from the base, the bowl was turning but the plastic ring was firmly stuck in the machine stopping the removal of the bowl. A quick Google search revealed we were not alone in experiencing this problem and the solution involved WD40 and some brute force. Spray the WD40 around the seal between the ring and the machine base, leave it to penetrate then tighten the bowl clockwise so it tightens to the ring. Once it’s tightened turn the bowl sharply anti-clockwise and hopefully the bowl, with the ring attached, releases. The fact that replacement plastic rings are available from Amazon, Kenwood and eSpares shows it’s a common fault (eSpares are a third of the price of Amazon and Kenwood).
Not wanting to risk it again I have ordered the stainless steel 5l bowl which does away with the plastic ring and is also considerably lighter than the glass one. Later models all seem to have this as standard.
Even factoring in the cost of the stainless bowl the Kenwood machine is still very good value when compared with the comparable Kitchen Aid mixer.
UPDATE – Genuine Kenwood stainless bowl has arrived from eSpares (ES1779937) and it’s a huge improvement. Fits perfectly, a fraction of the weight of the glass bowl and NO PLASTIC RING!
Wonderful mixe
Not cheap but so far I am very pleased with the performance and build quality.
Very good produc
My wife is very pleased with the mixer she has wanted one for a long time
its a mixer :)
its a good little mixer, the wife loves it and i get stuff baked! cant complain really 🙂
Brilliant machine but problems with bowl base ring. - AMENDMENT - DO NOT PURCHASE IT
Brilliant machine, does everything it supposed to do. Easy to use and quiet.. The only problem is, as others have mentioned, is the base ring on the glass bowl it is inclined to come loose and making it impossible to release from the base. It happened to my wife and she could not get the bowl off. A design fault which can be easily rectified by making a glass bowl without a handle.(the handle stops the bowl revolving by hitting the upright of the machine). I made a gripper out of thin rope and plastic tubing to fit above the base ring and the bottom of the bowl. It worked fine and thanks goodness haven’t had to use again. I also put a smear of cooking oil on the outside of the base ring. I’m thinking of buying metal bowl.
February 2021 – The base ring cracked a couple of weeks ago and consequently couldn’t use the machine. I got in touch with Amazon who were very helpful and suggested I returned the mixer for a full refund. The only problem – I now live in France and all the problems of customs etc. They also suggested I purchase a ring bowl attachment and forward the cost to them. But how long will a new ring last? Have you tried getting a ring in France?? They then put me through to Kenwood Customer Services themselves who basically didn’t real want to know. They weren’t very interested in my problem. They suggested again that I try & purchase locally but were not prepared to give me any details of their stockists in France. My previous mixer was a Kenwood Major which I’d had since the 1970’s which was excellent and maintenance free. Because of this, I purchased the Kmix. A VERY BAD CHOICE. I have now managed to buy a new replacement attachment ring but lord only knows how long it will last.However because of this I wont be returning the Kmix. It is a design fault and Kenwood knows it. They should give us the opportunity to replace the glass bowl with a metal bowl (no plastic attachment) and take this bowl off the market. Other than this it is a very good machine but Kenwood Customers Services are terrible. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS MACHINE until this known fault is rectified.
Finally happy
Really happy with my second mixer, the first didn’t come with right attachments
Guarantee/Warranty for UK
Haven’t had it long enough to know how good it is, but someone asked a question about guarantee/warrant, so I’ve attached a photo of the relevant text.
Magic .achine
Did what suppose to do love it makes baking easier love the style colour design just love i
Sturdy and easy to use
Wish I had bought one years ago. Making cakes has never been easie
Disappointed in quality of this – after a very short time the ring at the bottom of the glass bowl disintegrated. I haven’t even had it a year & always hand wash to be careful. Should’ve bought a Kitchen Aid.
Super mixer. A real workhorse.
Love this mixer. I bake scones and cakes every day. Absolutely would recommend to anyone.
Good - but. ...
Like some other users have found, my start switch usually does not set the motor going at first turn. I have sort of gotten used to having to switch it off and on again but really it shouldn’t be like this. And no, it is nothing to do with the soft start, it is dead until I turn it off and on again, sometimes several times before it starts to work… I love the machine, but wonder if I should report this as a fault and get the machine swapped out. The motor is noisy and makes a grating sound, again I am not sure if this is really all that good so .. hmm, might ask for advice.
All that said, it is a powerful machine and a fine replacement for the trusty old Chefs I have used for years. …
Convenie
It’s easy to clean.last year, I bought it but it was changed when I found out a problem. The replacement is very easy and convenient.
Beware of design fault, the bowl ring will break!
This is a great mixer until the plastic ring at the bottom of the bowl breaks! It broke whilst using the mixer for a second time.
If you make a mix that stiffens as it mixes (I.e. Rock cakes) as the dough mixes and gets stiffer, it cases the bowl to turn tighter onto the grey plastic ring at the base of the bowl and causes it it split. When you then try to release the bowl, the bowl turns however the plastic ring doesn’t move thus preventing the bowl from releasing without using excessive force.
I glued the ring back together and tried a second time, same thing happened.
Contacted Amazon and they are sending out a replacement with a free return for my broken one.
Reading other reviews, I think the same will happen when I come to make a stiff mix again. Clearly a design fault.
I would recommend going for a stainless steel bowl model to anyone reading this review.
