Verdict
Kenwood kMix KMX754 is a good-value entry mixer with a powerful motor and roomy bowl, but it is heavy and less sleek than rivals.

Third-party reviews

What customers like about Kenwood kMix KMX754

  • Powerful 1000W motor handles thick doughs and heavy batters easily without overheating or wobbling
  • Excellent value for money, offering performance comparable to more expensive brands like KitchenAid
  • Generous 5-litre bowl capacity allows for large batch baking
  • Sturdy, premium-feeling build quality that is stable on countertops
  • Dishwasher-safe removable components and mixing tools make cleanup straightforward
  • Smooth and precise speed control with a smart 'soft start' feature that prevents ingredient splashes
  • Unique fold function helps incorporate ingredients gently for delicate recipes

What customers don't like about Kenwood kMix KMX754

  • The unit is very heavy and bulky, making it inconvenient to move or store away frequently
  • Attachments occasionally struggle to reach the absolute bottom of the bowl, requiring manual scraping
  • Some users reported that the bowl can stick tightly to the base and become difficult to remove
  • The mixer becomes quite loud when running at maximum speed settings
  • Changing attachments can feel a bit fiddly as the tool sockets require looking underneath the mixer head

Verdict

The Kenwood kMix KMX754 is a robust stand mixer powered by a strong 1000W motor and features a 5-liter glass bowl with a large handle, giving it a capacity to handle up to 2.72kg of cake batter or 1.35kg of dough. Key characteristics include its efficient planetary mixing action, 6 variable speed settings plus a pulse mode, and a unique 2.5-turn fold function designed to retain air in delicate mixtures. Main pros highlight its premium build quality, steady operation, smart speed control that builds speed slowly to prevent flour splattering, and dishwasher-safe attachments (K-beater, whisk, and dough hook). However, notable cons include its hefty 10.9kg footprint which makes it difficult to move around, a tendency for dough to occasionally wrap up the hook, and instances where the attachments do not quite reach the very bottom of the bowl.
