I've just bought a Kenwood thing
because it was going to cost 65 fucking quid to replace the lid of the bowl and the dough hook for my magimix, and a new Kenwood was £75 in the sale. It'll probably last about a month and everything is a disappointment after a magimix but we shall see.

Ahh we had a magimix before we had a kenwood
The different blades were really exciting. Like a grater-blade. I find the Kenwood much easier to clean though.

magimixes are bombproof*
and they've got a very clever direct drive system. the kenwood feels like it's made out of milk bottle tops in comparison. But £45 for a lid? fucking hell.

*except, apparently the lid and the dough hook. But mine was nearly 8 years old, being fair
