kitchenaid classic or artisan?

[Newhere2]

Hello,

Hoping I can get some advice on what I should go fro in my new stand mixer. Is the artisan worth spending the extra money on or is the classic ample?

I just do a moderate amount of baking.

thx

New I bought a Kenwood last yr , I use It at least 2|3 times a week. Brilliant.

I second the Kenwood.

Maybe the question should be the Kenwood v's the Kitchenaid then?

They both get good reviews.

Absolutely love my kitchen aid. I thought I would only use it for baking, but have done a lot of other stuff in it too, eg mash, gnocci. We even got rid of our bread maker! It is the artisan one and a thing of beauty. The classic is plain white, otherwise no difference from artisan.
