    Yep, everything in the second picture was squeezed inside the big box. Have to admit I did do a bit of a double take when I saw the size of the box but the actual mixer is reasonably compact.

    Did a couple of cakes this afternoon, would have taken pictures of them too but I was a little too busy eating them. Want to try some bread next as that's more of a pain to do by hand so I think I'll get more satisfaction out of using the mixer.

    Re: Kenwood Chef: to do or not to do

    Hmmmm, didn't realise the kits came with processor and blender too. Now, what's the fastest way to trash my current blender so I can justify one of those...?

    Re: Kenwood Chef: to do or not to do

    I think the cheaper models just come with the liquidiser.

    But if you still want to trash your blender, throwing a brand new technology product in there and posting a video of the resulting waste of money on YouTube seems to be a popular choice...

    take the fuse out... or put a 1 to 3 amp fuse in there and crank it to max.

    What are the differences between the various models? Looking at the Kenwood site they don't even seem to mention the extras in the boxes....

    Erm .... as a Christmas present?

    If so, I hope she specifically asked for it. I remember making the mistake of getting the wife something "useful", and that she'd said she wanted, for a Christmas present once, many years ago. Put it this way,
    despite the fact that she wanted it, she made very clear that "useful" household items were not an acceptable Christmas present. That category included perfume, clothes (if you get it right), jewellery (also subject to accurately predicting her tastes), CDs, and so on, but not kitchen equipment.

    I hope you know what you're doing with that present.

    ....
    I haven't studied the current models, one one difference is certainly the power levels, and there are also differences in capacity. Some, IIRC, have plastic bowls and some metal .... and so on.
