Growing up my mum had a Kenwood. Massive beast of a machine. Fully analogue controls. Sounded terrible, but very loud. Could take your arm off if you weren't careful. Even had a mincer attachment.

Not really sure how you would make a non-rotary mixer TBH.

I have a Braun MX32 my mother gave me. Older than me, and I am old. This thing is so loud you want to use hearing protection. But it can knead 1kg heavy dough for e.g. pizza. Or whip the whites of 12 eggs. (Yes, I know the article is about audio mixers).

Do you mean a Kenmore? Because a Kenwood would be an audio mixer like this article is talking about :D

See https://www.kenwoodworld.com/en-int, they're a pretty high-end brand.

No, we actually had a Kenwood rotary mixer. My mother used it always when baking something and I recall the noise was horrible.

Kenwood is also a brand of food mixer! See “Kenwood Chef”

What a great example of someone so quick to hear themselves talk that they don't even click on the link.

I’m pretty sure you’re replying to a joke.
