Choosing the right stand mixer for you largely boils down to one fundamental design choice: bowl-lift vs tilt-head. Whilst these two types of stand mixers look very similar, they’re designed to suit different bakers. So, the choice is yours and you need to make it carefully.
Just a quick Google search of 'bowl-lift vs tilt-head stand mixer' will bring up passionate responses from bakers, pâtissiers, and enthusiastic home bakers. Everyone thinks that theirs is the best stand mixer, which isn't very helpful when you're trying to get some balance. That's where I (and my qualified baker and pastry chef friends) come in.
