Buying Guide

Buying Guide: Best Value Stand Mixer UK

Capacity & Bowl Size

  • Consider the size of your household and typical batch sizes
  • Larger bowls (e.g., 5-7 litres) are ideal for big families or avid bakers
  • Check if the bowl is stainless steel for durability and ease of cleaning
  • Ensure the bowl is easy to lock, lift, and remove

Power & Performance

  • Look for a motor with at least 800 watts for heavy doughs
  • Check for multiple speed settings to provide versatility for different tasks
  • A ‘soft start’ feature prevents ingredients from splashing
  • Consider a model with a planetary mixing action for thorough and consistent results

Attachments & Versatility

  • A standard set should include a dough hook, flat beater, and wire whisk
  • Check what other attachments are available, such as a food grinder, pasta maker, or blender
  • Ensure attachments are easy to attach and detach
  • Consider if you want a front, tilt-head, or bowl-lift design for attachment access

Build Quality & Design

  • A full metal construction offers more durability and stability during use
  • Look for non-slip feet to keep the mixer steady on your countertop
  • Check the weight of the mixer; heavier models are generally more stable but harder to move
  • Consider the available colours and finishes to match your kitchen decor

Ease of Use & Cleaning

  • Check if the parts are dishwasher safe for easy cleaning
  • A tilt-head or bowl-lift design can make adding ingredients much simpler
  • Look for a model with a splash guard to keep your kitchen clean
  • Consider the cord length and storage options for convenience

Warranty & Customer Support

  • A longer warranty period (e.g., 5+ years) indicates manufacturer confidence in the product
  • Check what the warranty covers, including parts and labour
  • Research the brand’s reputation for customer service and support
  • Look for the availability of spare parts and accessories in the UK

FAQs

What’s the difference between a planetary and a bowl-lift stand mixer?

A planetary mixer has a stationary bowl and a moving head, which is great for smaller kitchens and frequent bowl changes. A bowl-lift model has a fixed head and uses a lever to raise the bowl, offering more stability for heavy doughs. For most home bakers in the UK, a planetary mixer offers the best balance of convenience and power.

How much power (in watts) do I really need?

For light tasks like whipping cream or mixing cake batter, a motor around 500W is perfectly adequate. If you plan on regularly kneading dense bread or pizza dough, look for a model with at least 1000W to ensure it can handle the strain without overheating. Don’t just rely on watts; torque and robust construction are equally important for performance.

What bowl capacity is right for me?

Consider the size of your household and what you bake most often. A 4.5L bowl is great for couples or small families, easily handling most recipes. If you bake in large batches or for a big family, a 6L or larger bowl will save you from mixing in multiple stages.

Are the included attachments important for value?

Yes, the included attachments are a key part of a mixer’s value. A good-value model should come with essential tools like a dough hook, a beater, and a whisk. Some value-focused brands also include useful extras like a flexible beater or a pouring shield, saving you money on future purchases.

Is it worth buying a cheaper, unbranded mixer over a premium one?

Cheaper mixers can offer good value for occasional, light baking, but they often have less powerful motors and less durable construction. Premium brands like KitchenAid or Kenwood offer superior build quality, better performance under heavy loads, and access to a wider range of optional attachments. For long-term value and versatility, investing in a reputable brand is often the smarter choice.

How important are the speed settings and a slow-start function?

Multiple speed settings provide versatility, from a slow stir to a fast whip. A slow-start or ‘soft start’ feature is highly valuable as it prevents ingredients from flying out of the bowl when you begin mixing. This makes the process cleaner and less messy, which is a key benefit for home users.

Should I consider the weight and design of the mixer?

Absolutely. Stand mixers are heavy appliances to remain stable during use, so consider if you’ll need to move it often and where it will be stored. The design and colour are also important, as a quality mixer is often a permanent fixture on a kitchen countertop and should match your decor.
