Ankarsrum Assistent Original vs Breville The Bakery Chef

Buy the Ankarsrum Assistent Original if you bake bread in volume or want a mixer that lasts decades. Its 1500W motor, 5 kg dough capacity and 7-year body warranty beat the Bakery Chef on heavy dough and long-term durability. The Breville The Bakery Chef is the better pick for smaller kitchens and all-round baking: planetary mixing, a scraper beater, a timer and a second bowl make cakes, cookies and frosting easier, and owners rate it well at 4.6 out of 5. The Ankarsrum kneads better; the Breville is more versatile and easier to live with day to day.

• Choose the Ankarsrum Assistent Original if you regularly knead large batches of bread dough and want a hand-built Swedish machine with a 7-year body warranty.
• Choose the Breville The Bakery Chef if you want a planetary stand mixer for cakes, cookies and frosting, with a scraper beater, timer and second bowl.
