Great, practical review. I particularly agree about the difference between a sturdy Kenwood Chef and a Kitchen Aid.. As for the problem with the Chef XL whisk attachment not reaching the bottom of the bowl and so being unable mix small quantities so effectively, there is an adjustment spanner for the attachment which you can use to correct this problem.
Hi you can adjust the whisk with the screw on the top, it can be a hair from the bottom of the bowl Please do another video for the XL to see the difference it would be educational for kenwood owners!!
I picked up a standard Chef on marketplace a coupleof years ago for £40. It's 20 years old, I use it every day and I'd recommend it to anyone. When I got it the attachments (especially the dough hook) were very badly adjusted, but once I had fixed that I can't fault it. My mother had one of these which lasted over 50 years so hopefully this one will see me out!
Good review. I'm trying to decide if i should bye one. I'm concerned about the fact that the bowl doesn't have handles, did you encounter any problems with this?
Power doesn't mean much. Commercial models have only around 300 watts. The big factor is the gearing for torque. If a mixer has lower wattage, but higher torque, it will easily outperform higher wattage mixers with lower torque.

@@BloomingBakesbyCornel They usually supply one with the machine.

Very useful thank you, and the comments below about adjustment spanners are very helpful too.
KENWOOD Is My Favorite Brand Of Stand Mixers! I Love Them Because They Inspired Me Since 2015.
Absolutely. A fantastic brand and so reliable!
There Is Even A Toy KENWOOD Mixer Too, Perfect For A Child Who Loves Baking!

PS you can pick up a stainless bowl for the standard machine online.
Attachment doesn't reach the bottom because you need to adjust it . Should come with a tool to adjust and lower.
Good review.

There are bowls with handles and even on the plastic ones the are two handles by which you can hold them.
Thanks for this review! I’ve been trying to decide whether I should get an XL or standard size Kenwood and this was helpful.
P.S. are you Afrikaans?
Tks as moms is starting to give up after 30 years and we have to shut the door as dad can’t hear the tv in living room.
Спасибо!🥰
