I have this one and yes, ok, it's less powerful than the more expensive artisan but I've never had any issues with power at all and at this price it's a total bargain.
It's a fantastic machine - if you're on the fence and not sure, well, buy it! Buy it now rather than in 6 months time as then you get 6 months more use out of it.
Tips:
- Buy a spare bowl and spare paddle as otherwise you'll be forever washing up between mixing the cake and then the icing etc.
- when mixing icing sugar or flour, pop a tea towel over the top of the bowl to avoid a haze of sugar/flour in the air and it going everywhere.
- don't bother buying the paddle with a scraper. Go for the basic one. The scraper one just scrapes a certain amount beyond the top of the scraper so you have to stop and scrape the bowl down before continuing.
- for mixing a cake, I would do a medium speed such as 4 or 6.
- for meringues I start slowly at 2 and then once bubbly increase the speed
Any questions, feel free to PM me.

Not to be confused with the more powerful Artisan model. This is the classic model which has 75w less.
If you want to use it to mix doughs for bread/pizza, you will want the artisan.
