Excellent value and unkillable
I purchased my patissier two house renovations ago, and have found it to be exceptionally good at mixing- everything from bread dough to grout to paint and back to egg whites!! It's worked hard for its place on the bench, and whilst I've long coveted the very very expensive kitchenaid I just can't justify replacing this really excellent machine. I've run it until the motor smoked and after a cool down it's started up again with no hassles. It's never been serviced, or given the slightest problem in terms of function. My only complaint is that t...Read more
he beater is not dishwasher safe, And sheds grey material if you do put it through the washer. I bought mine on sale for $199 about 5-6 years ago, and it's transformed me from someone who had never opened the over to someone who bakes every week. It's even got my husband sold! In addition to house renovation products it also does hot jam for jam making, cheese making, omelettes .... essentially it's made itself an everyday workhorse in our kitchen. Couldn't do without it!! And whilst I'm sure the extra $500 for the kitchen aid is reflected in its bowl scraping ability, it's an awful lot of difference- and I'm not sure I'd flog it the same way knowing what it cost- diminishing its utility. In summary, the patissier is a cheap and cheery mixer with a robust motor and gearbox, that will serve the average home cook well... and may even help fulfill a few diy fantasies.

Great for mixing cakes and pavlovas
I have other machines to mix heavy things like bread, and just wanted something pretty to mix cake mixes and pavlovas. I have machines such as the Thermomix for the heavier items, but I must say this mixer makes my cake mixes way more fluffy and lovely. It mixes quickly, and really well. A nice heavy machine, that looks really lovely on my bench.
I do agree, that it doesn't mix to the bottom of the bowl, and this seems to be worse when you are only mixing a tiny amount. If there is a fix such as changing a screw, then they should put the...Read more

A very Good Mixer
I read all the reviews on this machine . I must say Kenwood have addressed the complaints well, the new model has a 600w motor as well as a splash guard and a scraper paddle that is excellent I find it runs rings around other brands scraper paddles. I took a number of weeks to make a decision and had the sales person run all the mixers that I was looking at in the store to check noise levels and beater actions as well ( i think people tend to not do this before buying a product ) . I love the sturdiness of this mixer and it has very little plastic parts as well. I would highly recommend this product. I could have bought any mixer on the market but a lot are not good value for the $ at all but this one is .

I thought I would purchase the 320 kenwood pat issuer model but I'm concerned that with only a 600 w motor it will struggle to mix bread dough ? The reviews on the 270 model have made me very cautious and I wonder if the 320 has similar issues like the beater not reaching the bottom of the bowl etc.?

I made Yeast doughnuts last weekend and it did it perfectly . Mind you Mine was bought to mainly to mix cakes not dough as I have a bread maker for that .I have not had a problem with the beaters not reaching the bottom I do like the Scraper attachment that you get now nothing left on the bottom with this one

No,the machine is sub standardto the older ken wood machines
I do a lit of baking of cakes and slices . I haven't done bread dough as I have a bread machine as well to do that . You need to get a mixer to suit your needs for me this one is perfect for my needs.If I was to do a lot of manual bread baking I would look at a bigger Watt motor to suit, but that's not what I use it for as I am a cake baker for cake decorating .
