Nothing like as good as much older Kenwood mixers. I bought a Kenwood chef 300 2years ago to replace my old one which was bought in 1976. The new one has flaked paint, the bowl is such poor quality that it has become very rough and unhygienic. The D shaped bowl makes mixing much less thorough and you have to be always scraping down the sides. The new shape K beater just chases the mixture around the bowl.

Kitchen buddy I've had my Chef for about 12 years and apart from flaking paint below the bowl stand, and the liquidiser and mill wearing out the top of the plastic drive shaft, which seems to be a common problem with all the mills and blenders I've had,it's still going strong.

I think it's easier than a bread... more info
A Class Act! I have just ordered a new chef from Amazon today. I have had a Kenwood Chef for 28 years and had no problems with it, just want to pass it on to my daughter and treat myself to a new one.

When you have used a Kenwood Chef no other mixer will come close, when you have used a Kenwood Chef, no other mixer will do. It mixes fast and efficiently, no matter how big the cake this... more info
Kenwood chef I've had my Chef for a few years now and it's an absolute mainstay in the kitchen. However I would mention that, with time, the layer of white paint is beginning to flake off at the bottom of the mixer so I would suggest anybody buying a long term investment might look at mixers that aren't coated in paint. Must be the steamy kitchen atmosphere. We've also had to replace the plastic shield - invaluable, but breaks if you don't put the lid down properly while the mixer is going. Perfectly reasonable, but... more info
