What customers like about Taurus 913516

  • Powerful 1200W motor capable of handling heavy tasks like dense bread dough up to 2kg
  • Large 5.5-litre stainless steel bowl capacity allows for mixing substantial quantities at once
  • Effective planetary mixing action ensures homogeneous and well-blended mixtures
  • Good value for money offering a solid balance between features, power, and cost
  • Comes equipped with useful automatic programs and a diverse set of baking attachments (whisk, dough hook, flat mixer)

What customers don't like about Taurus 913516

  • Plastic chassis and outer housing feel less robust compared to premium all-metal mixers
  • Operates with a noticeable amount of noise when working under heavier loads
  • Instructions manual can be confusing or contain errors regarding runtime and cooling cycles
  • The bulkier footprint takes up a fair amount of kitchen countertop space

Verdict

The Taurus 913516 Mixing Chef is a high-performance stand mixer featuring a robust 1200W motor and a large 5.5-liter removable stainless steel bowl, making it well-suited for heavy-duty kneading, mixing, and whipping tasks. Driven by a planetarium mixing system that simultaneously rotates the attachment and orbits the bowl, it ensures perfectly homogeneous results across its 6 electronic speeds, 2 automated programs, and turbo/pulse function. Key advantages include a durable gear system, a comprehensive accessory kit (whisk, dough hook, and mixing paddle), and a practical anti-splash lid with an integrated filling aperture for adding ingredients on the go. However, a potential drawback is its relatively heavy footprint and plastic exterior casing, which might feel less premium than fully die-cast metal options.
