Kenwood KMC560

+ The best mixer on the market in all aspects

- The control dial is "wobbly". Almost feels like it will fall off!!!!!!!!!!!

+ It is everything I would expect from a Kenwood Chef; the new flexi K beater is an excellent addition to the tools when making cakes - it gathers all the mixture together cleanly.
The glass liquidiser jug now has Imperial, metric and American measures so I am able to use any measuring system.
The instructions for use are clear and the cookbook is of good quality and very useful for any level of cook.
The splatter guard keeps the bowl and utensils clean when not in use and a wipe down with a damp cloth is all that is needed to keep the machine looking like new.
Though heavy, it can be slid carefully across a worktop to use.
I have been without a Kenwood Chef for about 3 years but now I can do all the mixing and baking that I used to do.
This machine is a good solid 'workhorse' and is an assett to any kitchen.

+ Spacious; quiet; versatile; reliable.
The accessories of my previous Kenwood Chef (30 years old when it broke down) fit the new one.

- The cover protecting the liquidiser fitment is difficult to fit on. I have to strike it really hard to make it slot into place.

+ The Kenwood mixer is a reliable machine which has been improved over the years. Its robust and reasonably quiet. The splash guard is a welcomed feature.

- Cleaning can be a chore.

+ Solid, easy to use, familiar.

- None

+ Excellent bit of kit with multiple attachments as standard

- Mixing bowl is a little smaller than I thought it would be

+ Does what I need it to do

- The on off switch seems very loose, could be better

+ this is so easy to use and with the lid lift you can add at any time while mixing

- I thought I would be able to mix larger amounts in one go,

+ features and addons

- hard to clean, weak accessories

+ Easy to use because we have always had one. Long lasting.

- Glass liquidiser too heavy.

+ Solidly built, all parts well designed, does exaclty what each component says it will

- Not very clear on correct insertion of tools e.g. dough hook.

+ Fantasti product, like having a secong pair of hands in the kitchen.

- A little noisy.

- The motor is quite sluggish. The splash guard falls off easily.

+ My old attachments fitted the new model. The unit looks better than the old version.

- Although quieter than my previous model, it is still a noisy appliance.

+ capable of doing a really good mixing job. I have used it several times already, for cakes,pastry, and meringues, and all have turned out well.

- Havent found any
