The more pricy mixers use more sturdy material and the finish is also more polished than the less costly ones. For example, whereas the Classic Kenwood Chef is built using plastic and cast die aluminum, the Kenwood Titanium Chef Mixer range uses solid aluminum with no plastic. The quality of the accessories also differs depending on the price.
The blender that forms part of the accessories in the Kenwood Chef classic mixer is made from the plastic material while the blender in the chef titanium is made of glass.
The food processor attached to the titanium and chef premier is quite solid. Most customer reviews say glowing things about it, so when you buy a high-end Kenwood you also get a quality food processor as well.

Written by Iris 16 March See our stand mixer reviews. The Cooking Chef XL has 13 preset functions, including egg white whisking, sponge cake mixing and dough proving. It is equipped with induction heating technology too, so you can also use it to steam food, melt chocolate, or cook an entire meal from scratch.
The Cooking Chef XL can be paired with compatible phones as well, allowing you to control the speed, temperature and function of the mixer from another room. The app also includes a number of recipes which the Cooking Chef XL can adjust to automatically — autopilot for cooking, if you will.
Our master baker, a dyed-in-the-wool KitchenAid devotee, loved pretty much everything about this mixer, especially the easy attachment mounting method, the spring-loaded arm-raising mechanism, the twin handle 4.
Granted, this is not a cheap machine, but there are often some excellent deals on it, and it passed every whipping, mixing and kneading task we threw at it with effortless, speedy aplomb. It was also an absolute doddle to clean. Highly recommended. Known as Breville The Bakery Boss outside of the UK, this model doesn't go out of its way to look unlike a traditional stand mixer, but it still boasts a host of natty design flourishes.
The 1,watt motor is automatically ramped up when heavier ingredients are added. It really has been exceedingly well thought-through and designed. The Bakery Boss is available in several finishes, but whichever you choose, it'll complement your kitchen.
It still has the same, pleasingly old fashioned speed lever with nice big speed lettering and a similar lever on the back to lift up the heavy-duty arm. The watt Artisan is available in eight tantalising colours and comes with a 4. The Artisan couldn't be easier to use. Simply throw in the ingredients, lower the arm and slide the speed controller a few notches to the right.
The motor fires up and much mixing is done. A clear, removable plastic lid protects against splash back and features a large portal for the addition of extra ingredients during the mixing process. Few modern mixers match this handsome retro beauty for style or blending efficiency. Granted, it has fewer high-tech bells and whistles than some of its competitors but you'll reap the benefits in reliability, durability, efficiency and, above all, ease of use.
Now available in a tasty honey colour. Tough enamel- and oil-based paints were used during the application process so rest assured your newly acquired work of art will, or rather should, remain untarnished by small household mishaps.
The Smeg SMF03 has a speed, soft-start watt motor — more watts than the KitchenAid — which makes light work of anything you throw into its equally gorgeous 4. One area where it arguably surpasses the Kitchenaid is that adding and removing tools is easier. If you want to go beyond just bread and cake baking, consider this pricy but hugely efficient stand mixer-cum-food processor from Magimix. The XL is comprised of a heavy-duty main unit replete with a 1,watt motor and a plethora of accessories too long to list here.
Highlights include a 3. The main unit is easy enough to use as it has just three big buttons — stop, auto and pulse — but you can be sure your head will be buried in the substantially comprehensive manual for quite some time, if only to work out which accessory is best for the task in hand.
The Kenwood kMix has many modern design flourishes, including a varispeed watt motor, a huge five-litre mixing bowl and a big speed control knob. The kMix stands taller than the KitchenAid and is only slightly less sturdy while the polished stainless steel mixing bowl is light in the hand and pretty to look at.
The kMix's watt motor is fairly quiet and we like the way it slowly accelerates instead of starting off at full pelt.
