Stand mixer - Kenwood or Aucma?

13 replies

LaBelleSauvage123 · 29/08/2021 09:27

I'm looking for a large, powerful stand mixer to make large quantities of bread dough once a week for a micro-business. Kenwood do a range of 6.7l bowl mixers which have great reviews - The Chef Elite and the Chef Titanium are the two that look the best for me. However, they're around the £500-600 mark. Aucma do something very similar with all the same features for £139!
Does anyone have any of these mixers and can help me make a decision? It would also help if the mixer wasn't too noisy as I'll be working with adults with autism.

Sorry I don't have either but I have a kitchenaid and it is fantastic!

We have a Kenwood, classic chef, absolutely recommend Kenwood, built to last, excellent power which is what you need for dough. Ours came with K beater, dough hook & whisk. Ours is 7 years old now and immaculate. No regrets of buying a Kenwood, great workhorse.

Our kenwood is amazing much more powerful than kitchen aid. Can't comment on the aucuma.

I would wait until black Friday if you can there are definite deals to be had

I am wondering about Black Friday but really need it before then. Wondering if I could use my own Kenwood ( smaller and older) until Nov?

Well, one of those I have known all my life, grown up with, bought, used endlessly.

The other I’ve never heard of.

Wouldn’t be a hard choice for me.

We are a not for profit organisation so price is important. But I realise that buying cheap may be a false economy, which is why I'm asking if anyone has experience of the Aucuma. Reviews on Amazon are very good.

Aucma not Aucuma

I have a Chef Titanium and it's amazing. Never heard of the other one, sorry.

LaBelleSauvage123 · 29/08/2021 16:56

The Chef Titanium would definitely be my first choice if money were no option

Not heard of this brand at all. I purchased a cheaper brand before I brought the Kenwood, it was absolutely rubbish. It’s worth paying more for quality. I think you will be disappointed otherwise.

This. Especially as it’s for bread making!
