I had a Kenwood chef for 30 years until it died, and I saw the cream version of this in a well known electrical store, but it was always out of stock. I got the red one on the internet and now it's 20 cheaper! It's fab for bread and cakes. Does everything I used a chef for but it's decorative too! Get it!

Checked out the other reviews on this item (and the cream coloured one too)prior to buying it, and think it's great!. Very quiet machine and the finish oozes quality compared to other (not Kenwood) mixers I've looked at that are cheaper. I'm not much of a cook - but this really takes the headache out of making pastry and cakes! All I can advise is that I was looking for a good quality reasonably priced mixer - and I've been really delighted with this one.

i was desperate to get a kitchenaid just like any chef would. but then i found the kenwood chef range which was much much more power full at 1000w. then the price held me back as well as the fact i wouldnt need such power. then i found this lovely thing, its cheaper than most mixers, its more power full than the ever alluering kitchenaid and it does look good on the work top the only problem so far is that the space on the worktop it takes up (i have very little space)

I actually own the cream coloured version of this machine but thought I'd add the first review of this one, instead. I've owned this machine for about a year. If you've ever longed for perfect mashed potato, as served in the best restaurants, this is the machine for you. Merely add the whole, boiled potatoes to the bowl with the K flat beater, add butter and hot milk/cream to taste, switch on and walk away! 1 minute later you have perfect, fluffy, non-gloopy mash.
You can also make superb pizza dough in seconds (much healthier than shop bought) and I freeze my pizza bases. I have made many cakes and meringues (too many, although I didn't eat them all!!!) and got continual requests from my family for more. Unlike a food processor, this doesn't chop up things like mixed fruit, choc chip, etc. and really mixes anything and everything superbly, due to the planetary action. It is whisper quiet, too.
This machine is 400w which is more powerful than the much desired Kitchen Aid machine. It also has 12 speeds. So you really are getting so much more for your money and it looks good, too. It's a real work horse. Get one! :-)
