What it is
Average grade from independent test sites, magazines and video reviewers, 1–10.
How we count it
Grades: Each review's own score is converted to 1–10; without one, we grade the review ourselves. Big test sites count more, short reviews half as much as full tests. A video review counts half.
Score: The average grade is 80% of the review mark; the number of reviews is the other 20% (1 review = 5, the typical number in this category = 8, the most-reviewed model = 10).
Enough data: With few reviews, the average grade is pulled toward the typical grade of this category. No reviews yet: 7.7 for now.

Verdict

Height is what sets the Salter Marino EK5620 apart. At 31.4 cm high and 23.1 cm deep, it can fit under a low wall cupboard and sit on a small worktop. The 1200 W motor has six speed levels and a pulse button for short bursts. A splash guard keeps a good share of the flour off the counter. The 5 L bowl is big enough for a family batch. The trade-offs are width and washing up. At 39 cm wide it needs room side to side, and the parts cannot go in the dishwasher. A dial controls the speed, and at 5.15 kg it is light enough to move. It suits someone with a small kitchen who wants a plain, compact mixer for everyday baking and does not mind washing up by hand.
