  • Excellent result for performance.
  • Easy to use large dial with on indicator light.
  • Spring loaded motor head.
  • Fold setting.
  • Slow and high speed outlets accommodate optional accessories.
  • Fairly comprehensive instructions with guidelines for mixing.
  • Folding tool, spatula, spiral dough hook , scraper beater and spare scraper rubber for scraper beater.
  • Beaters are height adjustable includes a height adjust tool
  • 2 side handles for ease of unlocking bowl from unit and makes pouring out load easy.
  • Shield is positioned on to motor head around the beater, so the shield is lifted away from the bowl when motor head is lifted, this makes it easier to access mixture when scraping down the bowl. Easy to add ingredients while shield is on, shield stops any splashing of ingredients.
