I received this as a birthday present and had only used it a few times (including to make my own birthday cake!) and was loving using it. However, after gently washing the glass bowl in warm water, I put it carefully on the draining board and when I picked it up saw a chunk had broken off the top edge. I'm gutted as I've been so careful with it. As it's dishwasher proof, I expected it to be a little more robust. Wish I'd asked for the metal bowl now. Disappointed!

I’m very pleased with my mixer. It’s very quiet and beats very smoothly. The only slight problem is the beater doesn’t catch the mixture on the bottom of the bowl when mixing, so the mixture needs to be manually mixed just to add in the bits of mixture stuck at the bottom and sides of the bowl. I thought I was getting the folding attachment but it wasn’t included so I may get it separately. I’m looking forward to lots of baking in my new kMix .

stylish machine, classic looking and works really well. overall very happy with it.

I bought this item mainly to make bread. I have used it twice, the first time for bread and the end result was the best sandwich loaf I have ever made. The second time was to make pastry, which was also satisfactory. I am still getting used to the machine but overall I am pleased with it and will use it every week. I found it slightly awkward getting the bowl to fit in properly but eventually mastered it.

The glass bowl on 2 KMIX mixers that I received did not fit correctly on the base, I had to replace the glass bowl with a stainless steel one.

I absolutely love this machine, I was stuck between this and a Kitchenaid and I really don’t regret my decision. The lid saves my worktops from getting covered in icing sugar, I rub my own cake business and bake most days. The speeds are great and I love the way it starts slow and then speeds up to save flour etc going everywhere if you didn’t have the lid on. I love that the bowl is glass and I can see right to the bottom and see if something needs mixing more, you can also adjust the height of the mixer head which I love

Absolutely love the machine. Replacement bowls are quite expensive though so I'll have to be super careful with the glass!

Oh, how excited I was with my ao delivery! For a start, the box was so big and I fully expected it to be mostly packaging but no, as I slowly uncovered the treasure inside I revealed the most pleasing thing to eyes in a long time. I needed help to extract this most beautiful machine from the box which then became the centre of attention on our coffee table and was accompanied by sounds of admiration from all the family. I have never owned a mixer this grand before and was therefore very excited to use it for the first time. It was very easy to use and was much less noisy than I expected. I made a ginger, date and sultana cake (one I have made many times with my little hand mixer) and I have to say that watching my lovely KMIX do it’s work was a joy but tasting the finished cake was a delight; I couldn’t believe how much better the cake was from my previous ones. I am very pleased to recommend the Kenwood KMIX It looks amazing and is amazing.
