Heavy and sturdy workhorse
That’s one heavy machine. It’s reasonably quiet for such a powerful motor. It came with 3 attachments and lid for the bowl. Bowl/jug is one big heavy piece of glass. Loving it.
Great addition to the kitche
I’ve only used it for a few days but this is really good. It is solidly built and very easy to use. It makes light work of kneading and mixing but even more importantly it is easy to clean.
My wife says even Hagrid would be proud of my latest batch of rock cakes !

Kenwood have a good reputation when it comes to stand mixers. After looking at what seems like 100 different mixers, this is the one we settled on and it is brilliant. Comes well packaged and has a nice modern aesthetic while still maintains a classic stand mixer look.
Comes with a few different attachments ( propriety ‘K’ shaped mixer, whisk and bread attatchments) with the ability to add other additional attachments including things like a meat mincer. These seem really good quality and a nice and heavy. They are easy to swap between and clean.
The machine itself also gives the feeling of quality. Has a nice metal housing and lever (to tip the mixer back) and good chunky dial to control the speed of the mixer, as well as turn it on and off. This allows even a moron like me to use it with ease. Doesn’t move at all along the kitchen counter, even at full tilt. Not the most expensive mixer either, so I consider it to be very good value.
Has made baking and cooking much easier and quicker due to the conservation of elbow-grease…just remember to put the splash guard on.
Sturdy mixe
Bought this mixer predominantly for bread and pastry making. Very good quality, nice feature in the kitchen, and works really well. Making bread has never been so easy (either bread dough with yeast or sourdough). Also, there is a remarkable difference in the quality of pastries I used to make by hand and that of made by this mixer. Very happy with this purchase.
Good and sturdy mixes well
Very good and sturdy mixer except the plastic locking ring on the bowl broke within a week customer service were brilliant sending us a new bowl
his is a good looking machine colour perfec
Just love Kenwood my previous on has lasted me at least 20 years
This is a good mixer and easy to use and clean. My complaint is this the plastic ring on the mixing bowl is broken, as shown in a picture on someone else’s review. The break is exactly the same. I can’t get in touch with amazon to see if they send a new ring and, as we’re in lock down and I’m sheiding, it’s difficult to return. Pretty disappointed with Amazon’s customer service.
Stylish and top quality
Wanted one for years and took advantage of the lockdown for extra baking and excuse to buy! Torn between this and the kitchen aid but I just find kenwood to be a better Brand when reading endless reviews. Great quality. Terrified I’ll break the glass bowl but so far (touch wood) so good! Even added the folding tool as another basket item and that’s great too! Now I need exercise equipment to balance the over-eating of cake!
Would recommend
Great product, it’s been brilliant so far, worth the money. Feels well made and very sturdy.
Fix the plastic ring!!
This mixer itself is very good, no doubts. But the glass mixing bowl has a plastic ring at the bottom, used to lock it in place, which broke after two usages. Kenwood knows about it, because you can see many reviews mentioning this. I was hoping that by the time I ordered it, Kenwood would have fixed it, but clearly not.
After looking online for a replacement, and seeing prices ranging between 20 and 40, I ended up 3D printing it.
My suggestion is: if you have to buy it, but the version with the metal mixing bowl.
Brilliant food mixe
Brilliant good mixer, exactly would I would expect from Kenwood, saved my daughter’s during Covid lockdown with grandchildren. Lots of baking and easy clean up. They’ve had no problems at all. Easy to use and not much louder than most similar mixers. As a good range of accessories to purchase if needed.
She’s beau
She’s beautiful thanks! Easy to use, better than my kitchen aid! Love he
Classic kitchen tool
Probably the best on the market but for the plastic retaining hoop for the mixing bowl which cracked and needed to be replaced.
That said, it is a brilliant machine
Absolutely love this!
Best piece of kitchen equipment… glass bowl heavy = slipped out of hand within first 3 months and broke on floor into a thousand pieces…. new one 70!!! Been without it for months and I can’t cope… bought a stainless one… hoping it will arrive and fit soon!!
So far so good! Good fun and easy.
Was a little concerned about what people have written about the glass breaking with the locking mechanism.
Not had any issues with it so far however, think just be careful not to turn it too far into lock position?
Anyway, looks awesome, works great, & is easy to clean.

Can't stop baking!!
Best 50th birthday present I got. I’ve had cheap and cheerful mixers in the past, this blows them out of the water! With cheap ones you end up spending ages scraping the side of the bowl to mix everything in, this beauty does the job effortlessly. Can’t stop baking now
High quality. Stylish appearance
Brilliant mixer. Would definitely recommend. Easy to use. Looks very stylish.
Only issue is splash guard doesn’t fit very well
The machine makes bread dough really fast ! However……
I also have the problem that the glass bowl got stuck to the base after I used it for the first time. But later I figured out how to get it off the base and avoid this to happen again: Put oil to the gap between the glass bowl and the base and turn the bowl to get the plastic ring in the right place and then it will be easy to take it out. Make sure the plastic ring at bottom of the glass bowl is rotated to pretty tight before use the mixer next time.
Hope the above will help those who have the same issue with the mixer.
Wife says it's grea
She’s happy, baking away.
All good I think.
She did say the plastic ring on the bottom of the bowl broke second use bit she is getting by
Ideal mixe
Just perfect for doing my baking, looks good
Bit pricey but buying in sale helped on the pocket , stays steady when mixing so no movement on worktop
After reading a lot of reviews on all makes of mixers, I decided to go for this kenwood kmix, and I am glad I did. I have to be honest though and bought the lightweight stainless steel bowl too as I knew the glass bowl would be heavy and it was worth the extra money paid. I have only had it a few days and I have two perfectly made loaves of bread. I have a 20 year old Kenwood food processor that is still in perfect working order so you know that you can trust Kenwood.
LOVE THIS!
I am loving this mixer- haven’t stopped baking since due to how easy it is!
An excellent home produc
I bought this as a Christmas present for myself as I reached a stage in my baking where a mixer would help and enhance but not replace my skills. After some research I settled on this product and I loved the colour. My requirements were the dough hook and the whisk. Both function perfectly alongside with the machine. It was easy to set up. I do use a non-slip mat, just in case.
The only downside was that after only a few uses, the bowl ring fractured, then broke. Upside: I was able to contact customer service on Facebook via messenger and a replacement ring was sent out promptly. I used that once so far and had no issues.
After 3 months of use I’m very happy with the mixer and made lovely breads and pastries and even butter (although that was accidental the first time).
I’m looking forward to many years’ of continued use and will update my review if needed.
Great colou
The low snoise level is a great improvement and as ever it is compact and powerful.
Really good food mixe
Really easy to use, literally one dial. Easy to put together and take apart for washing. Works really well, no bits of the mixture is missed. Accessories are also useful (comes with spatula) and good quality. Excellent for doing cake mixes and brownies. For those of you who may have mobility / strength issues, this is very heavy and is kept in place by this weight when on.

Does what it says very well A*
It does everything i need it to very well. Made a huge saving as i purchased it from Amazon Warehouse. Its very heavy.
Good product.
Great product. Has made bread making so much easier – and tidier. Can make it more often.
Does mostly well but there are deficiencies
It’s a nice mixer. Never had one before to compare with so no idea whether it’s value for money.
It works well and certainly does most of the jobs needed.
The only requirement is that there’s a reasonable amount of substance to mix. The mixing adapter is unfortunately not deep enough to completely mix contents. Requires a bit of manual intervention to make sure you’re not left with some unmixed ingredients at the end.
Perfect for cake mixes and stuffing (main uses so far). Not great for whisking up a couple of eggs.
Really solid bit of ki
Really well built and thought out machine. Easy to use and clean. So far so good, hopefully it will last a long time.
Love i
Love this mixer its makes my batter mix and buttercream lovely with the extra attachment I brought m.
Verses kitchen aid
Had tried the a mixer by ‘kitchen aid it was a lot more expensive but it was only a loan to try it out and could not justify the price – so onto this machine I don’t know what I expected but it looks good works well (no problem with glass bowl as per previous reviews) and I’m pleased with it so far.

Always wanted one of these mixers
This mixer had 60% reduction as part of Cyber Monday deals, so I said to myself why not. I had always wanted one, but they were too dear to purchase. Got it for 178 so it was a no brainer.
It is a serious piece of kitchen kit and has pride of place on my kitchen counter. Got a cover for it. It was great to have over the Christmas period.

Very sturdy
Bought this as a Christmas present at very reduced price of around 168 on an Amazon deal.
Very sturdy bit of kit. Variable speed not found on some KitchenSid mixers.
I was nearly put off by other reviews of the plastic base on the bowl breaking but no issues here. Can only assume others have forced it or exposed to temperature extremes.
One thing to note is that when this was delivered there was NO Amazon outer packaging so if my wife had taken delivery the surprise would have been spoilt.
Solid well made mixe
Only used for bread dough so far but seems sturdy and well made. Haven’t had the problem with the glass bowl as reported by others, but it is heavy so bought steel bowl too.
So just before festive season my loyal companion mixer sadly turned the heels up.after tear or two I started to look for replacement.came across this one on sale at a surprising good price and placed an order.within a couple of days had arrived in its original box, so everyone knew what I bought and glad wasn’t a present for someone!lol it was in use the same night.after a look at instructions I quickly assembled beater only to find that doesn’t actually fit properly and scrapes against one side of the bowl.no wonder was on sale!on instruction sheet troubleshooting section such a thing wasn’t mentioned but noted that with the special key u could adjust height of it.well,I don’t know where to find such a key in my kitchen and my husband not familiar with diy and I don’t think this was a solution for my case.so would be helpful what key could be included with the mixer.just for comparison I bought sewing machine few years ago and screw driver was included.anyways after squashing wires a bit with the hands I had some improvements but still was touching one side.the glass bowl was a pain to put, you had a fiddle a bit to get it in quite heavy but still made of glass so just have to wait and see how long is going to last.i didn’t not like the big spout touching side of the mixer.again would been nice have a choice of the steel bowl also.i already started to look for replacement bowl and they talking 50-80 for that.the knob easy to use but seem like stuck on labels for speed numbers etc.over all works well and not too noisy if you don’t listen glass beeing scraped on one side.there is a few pictures and video to follow.
Great produc
Delighted with this, replaced my old Kenwood that worked brilliantly for 29 years. Just as pleased with the new one and really like the clear bowl.
worth the money
I was looking at a cheaper option (Russell Hobbs 25930 Go Create) but opted for the Kenwood brand (at more that 2x price). I think this was the right decision; the Kmix exudes quality. It’s simple to use and clean. The glass bowl is heavy but you can seen what is going on inside. All in all it’s a great addition to the kitchen and encourages you to cook.
Edit (20.1.20)- has been used less that a dozen times and the plastic ring on bottom of bowl has broken meaning the bowl cannot be properly locked to the base – a quick search shows this is a common problem with the glass bowl (which Kenwood have not addressed) – let’s see what they say…
Good mixer but the plastic ring sucks
Good mixer but the plastic ring on the bottom of the glass mixing jug is of a very poor design. Sometimes it seems to twist around a bit when you’re using the mixer and then it’s a complete pain in the backside to get the jug off the base! Managed to do that twice so far, without breaking the ring. Wonder how long it will last though.
Worth while replacement.
Needed to replace my previous Kenwood which had done the job for many years. The new one is heaps better, sturdy, mixes well and doesn’t wobble on the worktop (like the old one did!). Fantastic value.
Sturdy good size bowl
Love kenwood so I am bit biased but works great 5 yr warranty a bonus easy to change attachments and collar easy to remove/ wash very heavy and stays in place even when beating bread dough I have red one nice vibrant colou

Great new style
I love my new Kenwood, I had one years ago. The only thing that is a bit tricky, is getting the bowl in and out, but I oiled the connection where the bowl sits and it is much easier now, I do love the glass bowl and the splatter guard and I am looking forward to getting an attachment for Xmas.

Needs to come with more tools. Not noisy
It’s a nice neutral colour that doesn’t glare at you on the work surface. It’s too heavy to keep putting it away after every use especially if you use it frequently. The bowl is very heavy and I wish I had chosen a stainless steel. It doesn’t beat as well as I had expected and so I give a final mix by hand and spoon to blend in the butter. Shame, I had high hopes for this and maybe I’ll get used to it. A big plus is it’s much quieter than I expected.
Buìt to last, great machine
Great mixer, waited a long time to buy this due to price but worth every penny. Built to last as all kenwoods seem to be. Very heavy so better to be left on work top but looks good anyway. Good size bowl and attachments are easy to use. Very pleased with it.
Great mixer but the plastic ring is a design faul
Perfect for mixing cake mix. Looks nice in the kitchen and feels solid. The plastic ring on the bottom of the glass bowl is flimsy though and did crack as many others have experienced. Kenwood did send me 2 replacements without any hassle so they’re obviously aware of the issue. This is the only issue that stops me giving 5 stars.
Superior quality
Quality item delivered in quick time. Heavy, balanced, reliable mixer, am very pleased with this. I baked a lot of cakes in the past 8 years, it was my business baking from home. This is by far the best mixer I have ever purchased, wish I knew earlier.
Brillia
Bought this item on deal of the day and what a bargain it was. Easy to use and clean. Great peice of equipment, Well worth the money spent.
Great mixer only one dissapointing feature.
Love the mixer, works extremely well. My only criticism is that , (as you can see from the picture if you zoom in on the black part of it), it came with these stains , streaks, discolouration in the black paint finish. Its not resedue . Cant clean it off . Thats the only dissapointment , that seeing its brand new, it doesn’t look as good as it should on the shelf .

JUST WHAT I'VE ALWAYS WANTED
Bought for me as a 70th birthday present. It is smart to look at and easy to use. Helping to turn me into the “domestic Goddess” I’ve always wanted to be!!
Great Alternative to Kitchen Aid
Great product but did need a replacement after 4 months. The bowl got stuck in the machine as the plastic comes off the glass bowl. Would recommend as a cheaper alternative to Kitchen Aid one. Happy with purchase and Amazon’s return and replacement service
Love i
Absolute amazing, good quality, but I don’t know if the glass bowl is sturdy. Thank you.
Consider the order you put your ingredients into the bowl
Love it. Very easy to use, tools are easy to fit and change. Very easy to clean up.
Although it is a little loud, I don’t mind the noise.
The only reason I did not give this a full 5 star review is because sometimes the beater does not incorporate all of the ingredients from the bottom or the sides, but if you consider the order you put them in the bowl, and use the handy spatula that was included, you will be happy!
Very easy to use and powerful tool. Makes cooking so much easier!
It is exactly as mentioned. Comes with 3 beaters

Brilliant! I love, love, LOVE it! It’s powerful, but quiet. The weight of the tilt was a surprise at first, but once you get used to it it’s fine. Smooth. Feels like quality. I took a long time deliberating whether to go for the glass bowl, or not. In the end I did. The glass bowl is heavy! And I do struggle to lift it when full, so I decant instead, then lay it on its side to scrape out. So unless you are very weak (my Mum could hardly lift it so was frightened she would drop it), don’t let the weight put you off, you can get round it like I do. I’m so pleased I went for it.
Why we bought it:
We were looking for something which hopefully would last for a long time, so we were willing to invest a little more. So we decided to buy this because: 1.Wanted it to be from metal, 2. Be quiet 3.Manage heavy dough. 4. It was recommended to us over Kitchen Aid (also much better priced) .
The product we received was with a glass Bowl and here are our observations:
+ All metal, beautiful
+ Manages air very well , does not overheat
+ Manages heavy dough
+ In comparison with my mother’s Bosch and other mixers it is really quiet, exactly as expected
+ Excellent visibility because of the glass bowl
+ Fantastic speed control !
+ Easy to clean
– The power cord does not retract
– The plastic thread ring broke
+/- The glass bowl is heavy
About the plastic ring problem. Those who buy the version with the glass bowl should have the following in mind.
In order for it to be attached it uses a plastic thread ring as a medium between the cup and the base. You should be careful not to turn it too tightly because it is possible to break during operation. I knew that before receiving the product and was careful but to no avail.
After the 7th use the bowl wouldn’t come out. I poured some olive oil to unscrew it and after i got it out , the ring just shattered into pieces. Kenwood were very helpful (although it took them almost a week to respond) and sent me a replacement.
Overall the machine is amazing and everything we wanted. If you want to avoid problems with the plastic ring – order the product with a steel bowl.
Sturdy mixer that looks the pa
Easy to use, brilliant range of attachments available (couldn’t find them on Amazon so had to go direct). Works just as well as a KitchenAid and a fraction of the price
Brilliant but...
I do love my mixer.. BUT the bowl is very heavy and washing up bubbles and water get stuck in the base which is very annoying. Other than that it is brilliant.

Looks lovely and works well
Great look, mixer works well. Am looking forward to using all attachments and buying other attachments to try. The bowl got stuck when mid cooking but is easy to use in general
Kenwood K mix
This replaced my old Kenwood Chef that has gone to my son, still working. It’s a well designed piece. I love the glass bowl and I’ve got the silicone folder which folds beautifully. As we get older, Kenwood is our baking helper needed in all kitchens. Kenwood last for years and deserves accolades for its technology. Thank you.

Very good price have a great mixe
love Kenwood used to have an old style with all the attachments
Easy to use but have dificulty fitting the cover on the bowl
Wonderful
I was debating whether to buy this or KitchenAid so did my research first. This is cheaper and performed just as well in comparison tests I found online. Also a friend who has a cake making business has both appliances and prefers the kMix “every time”. So happy with my purchase!

Happy with my purchase
Love my kmix. I used it for meringues and baking and got great results. I didn’t tried the hook for dough yet. Only time will tell how durable it is.
It is very very easy to use. The only down points are the weight of the glass bowl (2,3 kg!!), The prices of the accessories and the fact that it doesn’t come with a creaming beater as the older models were.

Brownie points in the bag!
My wife loves her new mixer. I however couldn’t help notice that the packaging had two empty compartments for attachments that were apparently “not included” So i had to buy these at 35 each! But like i said my wife loves it (which is the main thing) & it was a good price to be fair.
I’m no professional, but the frequency at which I bash out a pound cake meant my old cheap mixer was struggling. I chose this based on the capacity, the apparent quality of the attachments, the power and speed options and large range of optional attachments.
So far I’ve made a bunch of different pou d cakes, chocolate fondants and similar so I’ve used the K beater and whisk, not the dough hook. I have had to scrape the bowl to ensure full incorporation of ingredients but I’ve not problem with that and it’s usually just an ever so fine layer of sugar.
I will say the glass bowl is pretty heavy – as you would imagine. For someone with a weakness of arms hands or shoulders perhaps getting a lighter bowl would be necessary. I just take the opportunity to swap arms and feel like I’m toning something.
Great mixer for a great price
I bought this one to replace my old mixer as the capacity is much bigger. The only downside is the weight, I bought it with the glass bowl as it looks so good but it’s quite heavy, for ease of use I would probably recommend the stainless steel bowl
I’m absolutely thrilled with my new K-mix. With the exception of one detail, which I’ll come back to, this thing oozes quality, and I wouldn’t hesitate to give 5 stars if it weren’t for the niggle which I’ll come back to below. It looks and feels solid and durable. It’s heavy, smooth, shiny and looks beautiful. The beaters fit smoothly and securely. The movement on the speed adjustment dial is silky smooth. When you switch it on it’s much quieter than my mum’s old Kenwood Chef, but seems no less powerful. The speed dials up smoothly, and even on full speed there’s no wobbling or movement in the body of the mixer. I made a sponge cake by just throwing all the ingredients in together (rather than creaming butter, sugar and eggs first), and they were all whipped together into a smooth and fluffy batter in no time at all, with no un-mixed ingredients left around the sides of the bowl at all.
I actually like the glass bowl. It’s heavier than my mum’s stainless steel one, but I love the fact I can see whether the ingredients are being mixed at the bottom (and they always are – I haven’t had any dry ingredients left clinging to the bowl at all). BUT the one thing I have a concern with is the plastic collar around the base of the bowl, which carries the thread which enables the bowl to lock into the base of the mixer. It just doesn’t fit with the quality feel of the rest of the mixer. It doesn’t feel durable, and it doesn’t even work that well – it’s a bit of a struggle to get the bowl to fit in properly and takes a bit of wobbling around to get it to fit in and then twist to lock it (even harder with a heavy bowl full of ingredients), and having read other reviews about this part eventually cracking I can see that this is a real possibility. It’s a shame that despite the consistent feedback in reviews over the past couple of years Kenwood haven’t come up with a solution to this obvious problem.
Having said that, the price I paid on Amazon for the mixer is 100 less than they are charging in our local stores for the exact same model, so I can pay the rather steep premium for a stainless steel bowl (close to 70), and still be quids in, so on balance it’s all good thanks to Amazon’s great pricing.
I would like to see Kenwood fix this issue though – whether by switching to a stainless steel bowl as standard, or by coming up with a better, smoother and more durable solution than a PLASTIC collar. It’s such a shame for this beautiful, quality mixer to be let down on such a small but important detail.
Problem with Glass Bowl
We bought ours in the Black Friday sale. A piece of glass broke from the bottom of the bowl underneath the plastic fitting. Phoned up Kenwood and they said the glass bowl was no longer available and would we accept a replacement stainless steel bowl. The stainless steel bowl arrived 2 days later and is a far better fit into the mixer. Its still early days but I would give it 4 stars

I have had a Kmix for three years now and have just bought this newer model for my sister. They are just the best machine I have ever owned. I make bread about 3 – 4 times a week and do not have the strength or stamina required for all of that kneading. The Kmix with it’s dough hook does it all for you in 10 minutes.
All the ingredients in, ten minutes on just under number 1 then straight into a bowl for proving. It is so easy, the machine doesn’t move across the work top like some cheaper lighter mixers do and it mixes every bit effortlessly.
I make pastry and sometimes cakes with the k beater attachment and using these is a pleasure. Easy to clean or goes into the dishwasher. It has a 5 year guarantee so Kenwood are sure of their product. I love the modern look (not everyone likes ‘retro’ or ‘vintage’) and I like the fact that it is British.
I can’t recommend highly enough.
UPDATE. people are questioning if it’s British. What is nowadays? It has its offices in the UK and has always been essentially British. It has a great build quality so I’m happy.
UPDATE – the glass bowl has got stuck in place a few times and my sister has had it replaced with the stainless steel bowl, like mine. Loads lighter and won’t get stuck. If I were to replace my Kmix I wouldn’t concider a glass bowl model. Still a great mixer!
Love this produc
I’ve been using the stand mixer during the last month and it is not enough time, but I love it.
The only thing I missed is that you remind customers, from outide of the UK, we need to buy a suitable plug. Apart from it, I don’t know where I can found recipes and tips to better use the mixer.
Thanks.
My first mixer but the cakes are sooo much better with this. It’s so quiet too, which is great for our open plan kitchen. Highly recommend it!
Solid, heavy, seems very well built. Only time will tell if it’s durable. The glass mixing bowl is a tad tricky to mount on to the base but that could be me. Tried all attachments and very happy with the results especially the whisk (egg whites whip very well and quickly). Un-happy with the small detatchable metal cover that protects the accessory coupling as it keeps detaching. Seems a reliable machine and my confidence in using it increases each time.
Wanted a Kenwood for SO long. Price was great so I invested. I love it soooo much. Can’t fault it and it comes with a guard, not shown in pics – bonus!
so far so good
so far so good- i’ve only used it for sponge cakes so far but have been extremely impressed. even without the flexi beater it mixes extremely well and seems to encompass the whole bowl very well and i havent needed to scrape down partway through like i had to with my old Chef. Power is effortless and using it as i have it hasn’t vibrated or moved around on the worktop unlike the sage mixer i tried. i absolutely love i
Was a wedding present for my niece. She tells me it’s fantastic (much, much better than her previous, less expensive, mixer) and because it is heavier, it doesn’t jump about the worktop. She is cooking more often now, just so she can use it!
I have lusted over a decent food mixer for a long time and managed to buy this when on a very good offer.
I have not been disappointed – takes all of the effort out of cake making
Careful with the ring on the bottom of the bowl
Very good but the ring on the bottom of the mixing bowl broke very easily

Incredible machine, highly recommended. Taking the jug on and off is not easy, but doable of course. It’s a beauty to behold in your kitchen – buy it !
I make bread regularly, and this is so much better than my previous mixer.
What a lovely bit of kit. If you’re choosing between the kitchen aid device and this you do need to touch both. The power for this is adjusted with a smooth rotary dial, the kitchen aid with a ratchet. Both look very good. Personal preference was for the rotary dial. Built to last a lifetime.
Far better than my old Kitchen Aid, I was pleased to replace i
