I just received this mixer a few hours ago today and what a disappointment I am that the most important part is broken I don't understand why it is made of plastic? Such a high price for this mixer $$$ and now nothing works!?

I received this mixer yesterday so I’m new to using it but my first thoughts are it’s a very good machine which has clearly been built to last the tools that come with it are solid and big they make my old mixer tools look like a child’s toy it took me a little while to figure out how to start it I think the instructions could be better but with everything online now it isn’t difficult to find answers I’m of an age who grew up before technology so it’s a personal thingI made a cake to try it out by weighing the ingredients straight into it and was brilliant so going to save a lot of time when baking I am looking forward to using the warmer when I make bread to prove the dough it will be so much quicker in the winter months when it’s colder generallyI noticed you can’t use the smaller bowl with the beater as the lid doesn’t close something I discovered when I forgot to remove it it’s because it’s not deep enoughIf you are looking for a mixer and want something to last and do everything then this is the mixer for you I know it has a huge price tag but I definitely believe you get what you pay for with this and definitely recommend itEditI finally discovered that you use the small bowl on it’s own fitted into the base and the lid does close so it was a small error on my partI’ve now been using this mixer for a few months now and my opinion of it definitely hasn’t changed in fact I like it more than at first I used the warmer for proving dough it cut the time down so a definite positive and all my bakes are light and airy as I make birthday cakes for all my family it’s always getting used and having the scales built into it is a positive still it’s worth every penny I paid for it

I've waited many, many years before I took the plunge and invested into a Kenwood Chef, simply because I don't bake much cake... but we've been making sourdough bread for the past 6-9 months now and the machine has made things so much easier. It's the heated bowl that's a winner here.When baking sourdough bread, ambient temperature is hugely important. I guess that's true with most breads that need to rise/ prove.With this, I can just use the heated bowl setting and really cut down proving time on my loaf. Such a life saver in winter, when my kitchen struggles to reach 20C room temperature (yes I am cheap and limit my thermostat to 18C).Likes:- heated bowl, as above- weighing function- look and quality of the attachments, and the machine- solid feel to all that came with it except for the bowl coverDislikes:- controls are sometimes a little confusing for the different setting elements. So I sometimes end up pressing the wrong button but that might just be a me problem- the inner bowl is great, but as they are nesting, the outer bowl is just slightly too large for the dough hook to properly knead my dough together without leaving some of the bottom/sides untouched. so it needs some starting assistance at the beginning to get it going properly. After that it's fine.- bowl cover / splash guard is a bit flimsy. Would have liked something more solid here.
