When it comes to stand mixers, most people have heard of KitchenAid and Kenmore mixers. But which is better? And why? Here’s a little “Kenmore vs KitchenAid” rundown.
Kenmore KitchenAid
Price: $50-$500. $280-$500.
Design: A little more basic and not as sleek-looking, but is a more affordable option for the average person. Sleek design and a variety of colors to choose from.
Performance: Can mix dough, whip batter, and makes whipped cream without breaking down or burning out like most other mixers; however, it doesn’t offer all of the extra features that KitchenAid offers such as different speeds and power settings. Offers even more speed options, which is perfect for tasks like making bread dough or ice cream.

Performance: The mixing bowl offers a really helpful pour spout for easy pouring. Also has a dough hook (for mixing bread dough) and a 2-speed hand mixer included in the price. The mixing bowl does not have a pour spout (not sure why) and doesn’t have the dough hook or hand mixer included in the price.
Durability: The Kenmore mixer has more parts that tend to break easily than the KitchenAid mixer. The bowl is glass, so it can be easily broken. The bowl is also dishwasher-safe which is helpful. The KitchenAid mixer has plastic and metal components, which are better built than most mixers, but still not as durable as the Kenmore mixer.
Controls: The controls are placed on the side of the stand mixer rather than in front. This makes it more difficult to keep track of where you are in the mixing process because you have to look at the control panel to see what speed you’re on instead of being able to just glance at the front of your stand mixer (like with KitchenAid). However, once you know the controls, they are fairly easy to use.

Both brands can make bread dough and cake batter, but the Kenmore machine is a bit less powerful than the KitchenAid. The paddle has a thicker shaft on the Kenmore mixer making it more difficult to clean when dealing with sticky batters like cake batter or muffin mixes. They are also heavier than the KitchenAid models, weighing 12 pounds while it only weights 8 pounds in comparison.
The Kenmore mixer is 24% smaller than the KitchenAid and 16% lighter at only 19 pounds. The power cord on both is 2 feet long, but the KitchenAid has a longer one measuring 36 inches while the Kenmore can be shortened to 24 inches with the correct power cord. The KitchenAid comes with a spare beaters, unlike Kenmore which only comes with a small brush.
The KitchenAid mixer beats out the Kenmore in all aspects of durability, including parts wear and descaling. Over time, users of both brands have reported that their machines wear out much faster than others in their home, but this could entirely be attributed to user negligence and cleaning techniques.
The KitchenAid comes with a user manual that features lots of recipes and troubleshooting tips, unlike Kenmore which offers little if nothing in the way of troubleshooting or recipes.
It comes in three different colors–pink, white, and blue. It has 10 speeds and a tilt head feature.
KitchenAid mixers are available at a wide range of prices depending on their features. They can cost anywhere from $200 to upwards of $600 for more advanced models. While KitchenAid’s are overall generally more expensive than Kenmore’s, they come with a Lifetime Warranty versus the Kenmores limited 5 year warranty.
Kenmore mixers are available at a range of prices depending on the version. They are also generally more affordable than KitchenAid’s. The difference between the two brands is simple. The KitchenAid has better quality parts and a longer warranty, while Kenmore come with more power, speed options, and cost less overall than KitchenAid’s.
Which brand of stand mixer do you trust most?
KitchenAid is the most reliable and durable stand mixer in my opinion. I have owned this set of mixers since I was born and they still work. KitchenAid is very expensive, however it is worth the price because they are very well built and they last forever with little to no problems. They are also much easier to use which makes preparing meals easier!!
Which brand of stand mixer would you recommend to a friend?
I would recommend KitchenAid because it is a trusted brand that has been around for years and has built a solid reputation as being one of the best performance kitchen appliances out there. Plus, the fact that it was one of the first brands out there with a gluten free attachment is also a plus for people interested in gluten free or wheat free foods. Another reason I would recommend KitchenAid is because it is very durable and has a high quality build to it.
Which brand of mixer do you NOT trust?
I would not trust any brand other than Kitchenaid. I have owned my current set since 1995, yes almost twenty years and they have worked flawlessly. They are extremely easy to use and I have never had any issues with them since owning them. The warranty that they offer is incredible also. I trust my KitchenAid mixers to last a lifetime and they are built that way. There are just to many reasons why I would trust them over any other brand out there.
What mixers are as good as KitchenAid?
If you are just looking for a good quality mixer that costs less I would say that the Hamilton Beach True-Balance 6qt is a great mixer. It will cost you around $300 but it will most likely last you for years and it’s very easy to use. If you are looking for something a bit more expensive then KitchenAid is still the way to go, but if you want something with a warranty and power behind it, then the Kenmore Elite Plus stand mixer is also really good.
Kitchen Aid has been making quality mixers since 1921 but they have continued to create better and better models as time has gone on. Every Kitchen Aid mixer I’ve ever used has been durable and reliable with a long lasting warranty. I would recommend Kitchen Aid mixers over any other mixers for their durability and reliability.
Kitchen Aid Mixers are heavy duty, well made, sturdy, and extremely easy to clean with no water needed. I have several of their main models that have lasted me over a decade strong and only need to be replaced when they get old enough that they are no longer a reliable source of power. The Kitchen Aid Mixers have simple controls but can make an amazingly delicious batter or cake (or bread dough) while being incredibly easy to clean up afterward.
Is KitchenAid really the best mixer?
KitchenAid is the best mixer in my opinion yes. Why? Because it’s very durable, reliable and very easy to use. Kitchenaid has a lifetime warranty that covers all parts, which isn’t common in today’s market due to the amount of cheap quality gear you find. While Kenmore has more power, Kitchenaid is able to mix food at the same power and speed no trouble with cakes or anything else since it uses all sealed parts unlike Kenmore where all the pumps are exposed for a quick look under there but don’t actually work like they should.
Which is the most popular stand mixer?
KitchenAid is the most popular stand mixer (that I have seen) because it has the best quality on the market, the best warranty and is a very reliable mixer. I have used KitchenAid for years and my mom currently has it in her kitchen now. It works like a charm and does not give any trouble at all.
CONCLUSION:
To summarize I would say the KitchenAid stand mixers are very reliable, durable, well made and a trusted brand with a great warranty. Overall KitchenAid is well worth the price due to their reliability, warranty and overall quality qualities. I would recommend the KitchenAid stand mixers for people who are looking for a mixer that’s durable and has the most power of all of them on this chart. The only thing I dislike about Kitchenaid is that they cost a little more than the Kenmore or any other brand on this chart but they do have a lifetime warranty that covers all parts which is one of the best warranties out there.
