Oftentimes, when you strip something back to its basics, things get better. Of course, stand mixers with scales and spinning parts, and special extras are great, but the most important aspect of all if the fundamentals: has it got an egonomic design, good power behind it, and a bud that will endure the rest of time? The people who can answer test k all three are KitchenAid.
Any of their stand mixers can be found in lists of the best stand mixers of all time, but the simple KitchenAid Classic is their most affordable model. If you like the idea of having the iconic name in your kitchen, but you’re hesitant about the price tag and how much you’d use special features, the Classic is a great place to start. I tested this side-by-side the more expensive KitchenAid Artisan to help you work out which you really need.
