Shiny new stand mixers represent the zenith of kitchen appliance luxury.
Though not necessarily an essential item (unless you’re a GBBO winner in the making, of course), owning one feels like a status symbol. This is because they don’t come cheap, especially if you’re in the market for an aesthetically pleasing device from top brands like Swan, Salter or KitchenAid.
Once you own a stand mixer, even electric hand whisks tend to be relegated to the bottom drawer. However, handheld immersion blenders and electric whisks are brilliant kitchen accessories for smaller households who don’t often find themselves batch-baking cakes, cookies and more. This is all to say: don’t jump straight for that pastel pink whisking beauty if you don’t have the countertop square footage, there are an array of alternative appliances which do the trick just swell.
Thankfully, Black Friday is here with a buffet of bargains on kitchen accessories, appliances, gadgets and more. Budget baking is set to become easier than ever, and just in time for the festive season.
Stand mixer just one item on your shopping list? Whether you’re on a mission to procure certain items or you’re just browsing for inspiration, our dedicated Black Friday section has all the guides and retailer roundups you could imagine. From Amazon and Argos to TVs and tracksuits, there’s no need to shop anywhere else.

Best KitchenAid Stand Mixer Black Friday Deals
KitchenAid 4.8L Artisan Stand Mixer 5KSM175PSBIC
There’s no doubt that the KitchenAid stand mixer is iconic - and for good reason. This machine is built to last with a solid die-cast metal body, and has a range of options for useful additional attachments, such as the pasta cutters and rollers that slot into the front.
Using the machine is as easy as turning it on and pulling the lever up to the speed you want. The head tilts up smoothly to change the mixing tool to suit your needs. Although it’s only 300W, it is strong enough to work tough bread dough. But is it worth the hefty price tag? While this mixer is a must-have for professional chefs, it’s not for those who just want to take it out of the cupboard every couple of months because of how heavy it is - 10.4kg!

When is Black Friday 2024?
Black Friday is always the day after Thanksgiving. This year, that means the sales extravaganza started on Friday, November 29.
When does Black Friday end?
Contrary to popular belief, Black Friday is no longer simply a 24-hour sales event. Online shoppers can expect deals to last the entire weekend – right up until the exclusive tech sales event known as Cyber Monday. The end of the sale is marked by this final discount day on December 2.
Why is it called Black Friday?
There are many theories around this. One is that post-Thanksgiving sales event is credited with bringing businesses up out of the red and ‘into the black’ just before the end of the financial quarter.
