I'm considering asking for a Kenwood Chef 310 for Christmas from t' OH. Should I? Are they worth it? Are they any good for small quantities of stuff? (there's only 2 of us) I know they last for ever.
What attachments do you use?
I currently have an electric handwhisk which gets an occasional outing, and a food processor which has given up the ghost, but to be fair I've had it 20 years so it wasn't bad for fifteen quid. I have a breadmaker which I've only used a couple of times as I dislike the shape of the loaves when they come out.
I used to do a lot of cooking and really enjoyed it but not so much in the last five years, as I've been promoted (60 hour week this week, for example!), as well as got older I guess, so not so much time and energy, plus if dinners not meat and stodge other half is not too impressed. I'm hoping it would rekindle my love of cooking to make unusual things such as sausages - I see you can buy a mincer and sausage stuffer.
What are your thoughts? Is it worth the money and how much use will I get out of it?
