Kenwood Go Stand Mixer vs Dash 3.5 Qt Tilt Head Stand Mixer

Buy the Kenwood Go if you bake bread, big batches or use a mixer weekly. Its 800W motor, 4L stainless bowl and metal body handle stiff dough that the Dash 3.5 Qt struggles with. The Dash is the better pick for small kitchens and occasional cakes or cookies: it is 20% smaller and 25% lighter, tilts for easy bowl access and has a strong 4.6/5 from 365 ratings. Owners of both praise the mixing; Dash owners note it runs a little loud and comes with fewer extras.

• Choose the Kenwood Go if you knead bread dough, mix large batches, or want a metal-bodied mixer with a splash guard and a two-year warranty.
• Choose the Dash 3.5 Qt if you bake in small batches, have limited counter space, and want a light tilt-head mixer that is easy to store.
