Worst appliance ever owned. Gear box failed after only 4 1/2 years. Price to fix $285 (throught it away). Sadly ironically gave my 30year old Kenwood away when I bought this. My friend has a good reliable mixer and I have junk.

Like the esppresso machine I bought, it failed after less than five years (gear box). I paid premium price for junk. Ironically I gave away my 30+ year old Kenwood mixer and 15 year old espresso. I now have to go to my friends for a espresso and cake.

Very sturdy and elegant design. Countdown timer's great, but not intuitive to use. Overall, great product. If you want a classic, go with KitchenAid; if you want a more sturdy and functional stand mixer, then buy this.

Elegant Design; Even Mixing

Count-down timer; Heavy

Have had this mixer for 8 months now,I make Pavlova and whip cream regularly,have made bread dough once,and have made a few large cakes and brownie mixes with it. It has performed well with everything I have made,it was so quick to get air into the egg whites for pavlova to what I had grown used...

I have Breville everything in my kitchen, Truly awesome equipment. Again, the old adage is true - you get what you pay for.

Even Mixing; Heavy Duty; Works Quietly

Everything about this product is awesome! My only regret is waiting so,long to purchase one.

Several Spare Parts To St

I have always dreamed about getting a stand mixer and finally decided to go for it. I liked the looks of the Breville mixer and the price was more reasonable then the other ones I was comparing it to on Ebay. I am very pleased with its performance. I especially like the scraper beater and the timer.

First off, this is a really high quality product. The brushed metal finish looks excellent, it's got a powerful motor that's happy to mix even fairly thick dough, and it feels like it's going to last forever.

Easy to use; Good build quality; Quiet; looks good

some minor usability issues

Very happy with my new Food Mixer. The end result of what I'm baking is so much better.

It's easy to use and mixes great! It's not too heavy. I love the cord that hides away. I've had it up on the whip speed and my mixer didn't move at all. I've made heavy cookie dough and it does a great job. I would definitely recommend this mixer.
