Kenwood vs KitchenAid, a year on

After the conundrum of last year I thought I'd update you as to how my relationship with my Kenwood is going. 

Actually, that's not entirely true.  It's just that I used it for the first time yesterday.  Up until now I'd been patting myself on the back at my great purchase as it gathered a year's worth of dust in the cellar.

Then, with my competitive juices flowing as I had to submit my entry for my company's cake competition (it was a butterfly cake with hideous icing) I cranked out the Kenwood.  And it's bloody marvellous.

I know the KitchenSexAids look good, but my Chef Premier did me proud. I whisked, creamed and beat to my heart's delight.  I was even able to knock-out a celebratory smoothie to round off the day. 

I was very nearly led by the KitchenAid zealots, but don't be.  It's a bit of expensive, pretty, metal.  If you can find a Kenwood on a good deal, go for it, it will do the same job at a fraction of the price.

Have been mulling over whether to get a Kenwood or Kitchen Aid and you've just persuaded me to go for good olde Kenwood. My Norwegian granny had one for years and raved about it, now have two excellent sources to back up this momentous decision ;-)

Sig, glad to help and I love it.  For the money it does the job, but beware the KitchenAid zealots.  They love them more than their puppies and can at times be convincing on their merits.  But as I say, my Kenwood is perfect for me.
