MIXER TILT-HEAD 4.7L - ARTISAN (5KSM125)

KitchenAid · £459

A red tilt-head stand mixer with a stainless steel bowl, shown from the front.

Worth being NRY provisional

Five years of cover and fifteen years of spare parts, on a die-cast machine that takes 2kg of bread dough in a 4.7 litre bowl. That combination is the whole argument for buying a stand mixer rather than using a hand mixer: this is a thing you service, not a thing you replace. The planetary action is not marketing, it is why the bowl gets scraped properly without you stopping to do it.

For
Almost anyone buying their first serious mixer, and most people buying their last.
Not for
Anyone kneading more than 2kg of dough at a time, who wants the 5.6 litre bowl-lift instead.

What we checked

  • KitchenAid state five years of cover and fifteen years of spare part availability. KitchenAid
  • The 4.7 litre bowl is rated for 2kg of bread dough. KitchenAid
  • The beater turns against the shaft's rotation to reach dozens of points around the bowl. KitchenAid

Marked provisional: the justification rests on 1 source(s); two independent ones is the bar. We publish it anyway and say so, rather than waiting for evidence that may never arrive.
