Know before you buy
The bowl-lift design provides superior stability when mixing heavy doughs or large batches. By locking the bowl into place, it offers a more secure, professional-grade experience that prevents the head from moving during operation.
Yes, the 375W motor is specifically engineered for efficiency and torque. It is more than capable of handling dense bread doughs and thick cookie batters without straining.
The mixer measures 41.9 x 28.7 x 37.1 cm. Because it features a bowl-lift mechanism, ensure you have enough vertical clearance to raise and lower the bowl comfortably without hitting your upper cabinets.
Planetary movement means the beater rotates around the bowl while simultaneously spinning in the opposite direction. This ensures that ingredients are thoroughly incorporated from the center to the very edges of the bowl, eliminating the need to scrape the sides manually.
The smooth, die-cast metal finish is very durable and easy to wipe down with a damp cloth. It is designed to resist staining and wear, maintaining its aesthetic even after years of frequent use.
This stand mixer is backed by a 5-year warranty. This reflects the brand's confidence in the longevity and build quality of the die-cast metal construction.
