Bought the Raspberry model 5 years ago and can't fault it. Used at least once every weekend and still looks as new. Not knocking KitchenAid as haven't used one, but when comparing I was slightly put off by some critical internal parts being made of plastic rather than the better quality components in the KMix. Also had a feeling that it would be more difficult / expensive to address any subsequent faults - thankfully no need for servicing or repairs with the Kmix so far. I think it will last for many years, but would buy again without hesitation if ever required.

Hope that helps your decision. :smiley:

​Bought one last year for £200 when Debenhams had them half price. My wife swears by it.
Hotness for sure.

​They had a few in the sunderland store and they weren't on the clearance aisle they were on the front of the electrical aisle as if they were a promotion so could be national.

I've seen this said on a few K-mix posts. There is a power take off on the front of K-mix mixers. It is covered by a colour coded bezel so you don't really see it in the pictures. You are right that attachments should be made for the K-mix. There is a food grinder and several pasta cutters that attach to the power take off point (or slow speed output as Kenwood calls it)
