We don\u2019t know about you, but the return of The Great British Bake Off<\/a> has sparked our desire to get baking sweet treats. <\/p>\n

While we know a good workman never blames his tool (or whatever the saying is), but our arms ache kneading dough, rolling pastry, and mixing batter intensely for minutes. Yet, we can\u2019t justify forking out over \u00a3400 on KitchenAid\u2019s iconic Mixer, which we associate as a sign of culinary skills. <\/p>\n

However, we have found an alternative to the KitchenAid<\/a> Mixer we have lusted after for years, and it\u2019s the 800W Stand Mixer from Dunelm<\/a>, but it looks almost identical. <\/p>\n

800W Stand Mixer<\/h2>\n

Crafted from stainless steel, this mixer is sturdy and robust. The stand itself has a tilting head to fit the bowl and mixing head easily. The stand features a dial control to select the settings. The bowl can hold a capacity of five litres. It measures 35.8cm in height, 24.1cm in width and 35cm in depth. Available in four colours, including cream, black, green and blue. <\/p>\n

The 800W Stand Mixer<\/a> features a fixed stand with a head that lifts so you can put your bow in position, change your mixer, or remove both to clean them.<\/p>\n

This kitchen appliance can fit a removable metal stainless steel bowl to blend hot liquids, cold milk, as well as the usual culprits, like flour, sugar and eggs. <\/p>\n

The mixer measures 35.8cm in height, 24.1cm in width and 35cm in depth, and it weighs 3.7kg in weight. While you could pack it away if you are tight on counter space, it is designed to be on full display in the kitchen – consider it a kitchen centrepiece to get the conversation started when guests arrive. Do you bake? Though, of course it is functional too. <\/p>\n

How gorgeous is this bargain mixer? (Picture: Metro\/Dunelm)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Dunelm design is fractionally smaller than the KitchenAid Mixer<\/a>, which weighs a hefty 10.4kg. <\/p>\n

Dunelm\u2019s Standing Mixer<\/a> can hold five litres, which is more than the KitchenAid design. So the high street<\/a> buy is scoring major brownie points. <\/p>\n

The dial on the side controls the settings, though it has not been disclosed how many speed settings there are on Dunelm\u2019s mixer, whereas KitchenAid’s tool has 10 settings. <\/p>\n

Dunelm\u2019s Mixer includes the stand, bowl, as well as interchangeable heads, such as the beater dough hook and whisk. <\/p>\n

Cookies and cakes and croissants – oh my! (Picture: Metro\/Dunelm)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Another huge difference is the price. Dunelm\u2019s Mixer<\/a> retails for an affordable \u00a355, while KitchenAid\u2019s Mixers<\/a> can range in price from \u00a3449 up to \u00a3899. So it\u2019s really a no brainer. <\/p>\n

Need a little more convincing? Dunelm shoppers can\u2019t get enough of the Mixer, and the reviews section has been flooded with compliments. <\/p>\n

PollyJay, gushed: ‘So easy to set up and use. It\u2019s my first stand mixer and it does everything I need it to do. Nice and light and easy to store as well. Bargain for the price.’<\/p>\n

Jean added: ‘I purchased this item after struggling to use a hand held mixer. This proved very successful, as you get older you need a little help. I\u2019ve used it to make bread and cakes very successfully.’<\/p>\n

A separate customer praised: ‘Bought it on a sort of whim, wasn’t expecting much for \u00a350 but good Lord it’s blooming great.’<\/p>\n

Considering it saves the elbow crease of mixing ingredients, and it\u2019s super affordable, we predict this kitchen gadget will fly off the shelves quicker than you can say ‘soggy bottom’.<\/p>\n
