Does anyone have a Kenwood K-mix?

[Wizzoh]

Just got one and the metal K attachment doesn't seem to get the sides very well.

Have moved the nut down lower than how it arrived which is a little improvement but I'm still having to stop and spatula the sides every few mins.

Is that just how it is with a mixer?

Don't want to move it down anymore as the bowl is glass!

And please don't tell me to get a kitchen aid! This is already a luxury purchase for me, I could not spend double!

Yes this happens, it's better with some things than others. I recommend getting the flexible beater attachment which is like the beater you have but with spatula edges so it scrapes as it mixes.

I only have a flexible beater and a whisk. That's all you need! Flexible beater is a game changer.

It's a brilliant little machine. I bought mine pre-loved and it's still going strong.

You definitely need to use the flexible beater. I've never used the plain metal K.

Yes, the flexible one is best. Mine is 20 years old and still going strong. I chose it over a kitchen aid and don't regret it!

Yes with the k you have to stop and spatula.

I chose mine over a Kitchenaid and it is brilliant. I wasn't concerned about looks, but was more interested in the motor.

I didn't realise you could buy the spatula.

How annoying that they don't just include that instead of the K!

Thankyou!
