Mothers Day Must-Buy: Kenwood kMix Stand Mixer from very.co.uk ★★★★★

We’ve found the ULTIMATE Mother’s day gift!

Stuck for what to buy Mum this Mother’s Day? Look no further. We’ve found the ultimate kitchen gadget that she will love! It’s the Kenwoodmix Kmix Stand Mixer, available from very.co.uk

From the moment it came out of the box, this mixer made a serious impression — not just because of its performance, but also because of how stunning it looks. Ours is in the most gorgeous baby pink colour, and it instantly became the star of the kitchen counter. If it’s ‘Bake Off’ vibes you’re after, this is just the ticket. In our monochrome kitchen, it looks like a real designer statement piece. Just wait until you Mum opens it! This mixer isn’t just a pretty face though; it’s an incredibly capable piece of kit that delivers professional-quality results time and time again.

The build quality is excellent. It feels weighty and solid, with a robust construction that gives you confidence every time you use it. It’s clearly been designed to last, and the retro styling with its soft curves and glossy finish makes it a real showpiece. But what really impressed us is how easy it is to use. The controls are all intuitively placed at the front of the machine, including a smooth-turning dial that lets you move between six speeds — plus a fold function — with absolute ease.

The 1000W motor is more than up to the task, whether you’re whipping up a quick sponge or tackling a dense bread dough. So far, we’ve made an impressive range of bakes using the kMix, and every single one has turned out beautifully. Light and fluffy Victoria sponges were a breeze with the balloon whisk, while rich chocolate loaf cakes came out perfectly smooth thanks to the K-beater. We’ve also whipped cream and made stiff-peak meringue in record time, and the dough hook has handled bread and pizza dough without breaking a sweat.

One of our favourite features is the fold function. It’s surprisingly clever — a gentle, deliberate mixing action that allows you to layer ingredients without knocking out air. It’s perfect for delicate batters, mousses, or soufflés. In fact, we even gave soufflés a go for the first time and were amazed at how light and airy they turned out. This mixer has genuinely made us feel more confident trying recipes we previously found intimidating.

The 5-litre stainless steel bowl is a great size for both small and large batches, and it comes with a large handle that makes it really easy to lift and pour. The splashguard, which features an extra-wide chute, is a thoughtful addition too — it lets you add ingredients gradually while mixing, without creating a mess. Swapping between attachments is simple and quick thanks to the easy-fit outlets, and the overall experience feels smooth and efficient.

Included with the mixer are three high-quality tools: the K-beater for general mixing, the balloon whisk for aerating, and the dough hook for kneading. Between the three, every baking task is covered — and the results have been consistently outstanding. Whether you’re a seasoned baker or just starting out, this mixer genuinely makes things easier and more enjoyable.

We are not expert bakers by any means, but found the machine so easy to use and the instructions extremely easy to follow. It’s not overly complex and yet somehow delivers the most phenomenal results. The power on it, will stagger you!

In terms of value for money, the Kenwood kMix really shines. For the level of performance, thoughtful design, and overall quality, it’s surprisingly affordable. It feels like a luxury appliance without the luxury price tag, and it would be just as suitable for an experienced home baker as it would for someone building their skills. As a Mother’s Day gift, it was absolutely perfect — practical, beautiful, and guaranteed to be used regularly. But it would be just as brilliant for birthdays, weddings, or as a special treat to yourself.

All in all, the Kenwood kMix Stand Mixer KMX754PP has more than earned its place in our kitchen. It’s reliable, stylish, easy to use, and most importantly, it helps you create baked goods that look and taste like they’ve come straight out of a professional bakery. If you’re in the market for a stand mixer that delivers exceptional results and looks stunning while doing it, this is the one to go for.

In time for Mother’s Day, you can buy this from very.co.uk for only £229 (instead of £279). Even at full price it’s an absolute steal. It’s just as good, if not better, as similar machines we’ve tried that cost twice the price! Other colours are available.

Very.co.uk offers FREE standard delivery with Click & Collect on orders £30 or more (product exclusions apply), and free returns. Plus, you can take advantage of Very Credit.
