Kenwood Chef KVC3100 Stand Mixer 4.6L 1000W

Kenwood's mid-range stand mixer brings serious capacity to home baking: a 1000W motor, 4.6L stainless steel bowl, and three essential tools — K-beater for cakes and pastry, dough hook for bread, and balloon whisk for meringue. The front and rear drive ports accept Kenwood's expanding range of attachments: pasta roller, mincer, food processor bowl, grinder, and blender. The 4.6L bowl handles eight egg whites, 800g of bread dough, or a triple-batch sponge. Splash guard with a flour pour chute is included. The seven-speed dial runs from a slow fold to a high whip, with a brief-burst 'MAX' position for short power bursts. At 6.5kg, the Chef KVC3100 is a stay-on-the-worktop machine rather than a pull-out-and-put-away one. That is, broadly, the right way to treat a machine that is likely to outlast several cheaper alternatives.
