For many home cooks, their stand mixer is one of their most prized kitchen appliances and it’s not difficult to see why – they’re versatile, hard working and a real statement piece. Some models can come with a hefty price tag, so the Black Friday shopping period is the perfect time to pick up a stand mixer at a discounted price.

This year, Black Friday falls on Friday 24th November - that's just over one week away - but we're seeing many retailers release their deals early. So, if you see the model you like, at a price you're happy to pay, snap it up as these deals don't tend to stick around for long.

Stand mixers come in many shapes and sizes. From high-tech models with in-built scales and warming functions, to simple workhorses designed to simply whisk, knead and mix. Whatever you’re after, thorough research is key. Thankfully, we’ve done all the hard work for you. Our best stand mixers guide tells you everything you need to know about these wonderful machines and features a full list of the very best that we’ve tested.

The cost-of-living crisis is continuing to affect all of us, and we’re now more aware than ever of the amount of energy that we’re using. That’s why we’ve listed the wattage of each of the products we’ve tested, so you’re able to see – at a glance – whether the stand mixer you’ve got your eye on is likely to be cheap to run.

For more energy-saving tips from us here at BBC Good Food, read our guide to energy-efficient cooking. And if you’re looking to stock up, our best energy-efficient appliances guide features the very best low-wattage appliances.

Once you’ve settled on the stand mixer you want, come back to us here. We’re tracking the price of stand mixers daily over Black Friday, then will be updating this page regularly. Why not bookmark this page, so it's easy to access?

Kenwood Titanium Chef Baker XL

Kenwood Chef Baker XL stand mixer

Star rating: 5/5

Wattage: 1400W

The younger sibling of the Chef Patissier XL, the Chef Baker comes with in-built scales and two generously sized bowls ideal for large mixes. There was very little we didn’t like about this model; the bakes produced were flawless.

KitchenAid Artisan 4.8L

Best stand mixer for range of colours

KitchenAid 5KSM125, 175, 185 high res with HR badge

Star rating: 4.5/5

Wattage: 300W

Earning the title of KitchenAid’s most iconic stand mixer is no mean feat, but the KitchenAid Artisan is so recognisable, it’s no surprise it has. It’s simply designed compared to some of the Kenwoods we’ve tested, but comes with a deceptively powerful motor and sturdy attachments. We’re only seeing the plain colours available at the moment, but we’re hoping to see more of the vast array of colours come on sale throughout the month.

Morphy Richards MixStar

Best compact stand mixer

Morphy Richards MixStar

Star rating: 4.5/5

Wattage: 650W

This is the model for people short on space. This compact little machine features all the traditional functions without taking up the large footprint of traditional models. The MixStar shone when making cake, but produced light buns and glossy meringues, too.

Star rating 4.5/5

Wattage: 1000W

The kMix range is a great option if you’re after the power of Kenwood’s Chef range without the large footprint. This model features the same hardwearing attachments and powerful motor, producing uber light cakes and fluffy meringue, even with one egg white.

KitchenAid 6.9L Artisan stand mixer

Best stand mixer for baking

KitchenAid 6.9-litre Artisan stand mixer high res with hr badge

Star rating: 4.5/5

Wattage: 500W

If you often bake for a crowd or are after a stand mixer that's a bit more heavy duty than your previous model, the KitchenAid Artisan 6.9L is a serious upgrade. This model powered through a range of cake, bread and egg whipping tasks with ease and we love the long, five-year warranty. It's not available in as many colours as it's smaller Artisan companion, but if you're looking for this model in the iconic KitchenAid candy red, you're in luck.

Star rating: 4/5

Wattage: 250W

Short on space but after an impressive stand mixer? This model from KitchenAid has all the things we love about its stand mixers, packaged up into a smaller body. Smooth controls and a powerful motor make this the ideal choice for small bakes and single loaves.

Cuisinart Precision stand mixer

Best large-capacity stand mixer for affordability

Cuisinart Precision stand mixer high res with recommended badge

Star rating: 4/5

Wattage: 500W

This Cuisinart model doesn't come with all the bells and whistles of some of the other, more advanced stand mixers on this list. But if you're after something robust and built to last, that'll produce quality bakes time after time, then the Cuisinart Precision is well worth considering. Available in black or white, this stand mixer is guaranteed to fit into any kitchen.

Lakeland Digital stand mixer

Best digitally controlled stand mixer

Lakeland Digital Stand Mixer 001

Star rating: 3.5L

Wattage: 1800W

This techy offering from Lakeland doesn't come with a control level like many other stand mixers we've tested, rather you need to turn the dial on the side to change between speeds. There's also a useful timer that automatically shuts off the machine when it finishes, great for those recipes that state, "knead for 10 minutes". The test recipes were well made, but we were let down by the lack of handle on the bowl and excessive non-recyclable packaging.

How to shop safely online during Black Friday

A good rule of thumb to follow is, if a Black Friday deal seems too good to be true, it probably is. You can reduce the risk of being scammed by shopping through reputable retailers you know and trust, and avoid sites or private sellers you don't recognise or are suggested to you via social media.

Avoid giving out personal information similar to security questions as they could also be used to predict passwords, and use the recommended secure payment methods when buying online. We also won't be adding any links to this page unless we're fully comfortable with the brand.

How do we find Black Friday stand mixer deals?

When we search for stand mixer deals, we look through a wide range of retailer sites to see what's being offered over the Black Friday shopping period.

As retailers compete with each other, we often find prices go up and down a few times, so we continue to track every price to make sure you're always getting the best saving possible, and update this page accordingly.

We also look at the small retailers as well as the big ones, as they sometimes offer a price that larger brands cannot. Our aim is to help you find the biggest and best stand mixer deals, whichever the retailer.

How do we select Black Friday stand mixer deals?

There are a variety of stand mixer discounts around, but those that are listed here are the top performers of more than 40 shortlisted, tested and reviewed by BBC Good Food reviews experts.

We put each stand mixer through its paces using thoroughly tested recipes, which assess both their performance on everyday kitchen tasks and additional functions. You can find out which models performed best in our guide to the best stand mixers.

How to get a good Black Friday stand mixer deal

  • Look at reviews: we can all be swayed by a deal that looks good, but you won't want to risk the model you have your eye on being a dud. Our experts have tested a range of different stand mixers on the market, so we really do know the best ones out there. Each review is impartial and includes up-to-date advice on the products actually worth your money.
  • Stick to a budget: to make the most of the discounts available, try to set a budget and stick to it.
  • When you see a price you like, buy it: Black Friday is a great opportunity to save, but many deals are only available for a short time, so don't hang around.
  • Use tools to alert you to good deals: sites like CamelCamelCamel track the price history of Amazon products.

How to calculate your KwH usage

The wattage of stand mixers can vary wildly. Some only require a couple of hundred watts, others reach the thousands. It’s unlikely that you’ll have to run your stand mixer for longer than 15 minutes continuously, but it’s still worth knowing how much it’s going to cost you.

This simple sum will help you work out a stand mixer’s kWh usage. Take the wattage and multiply it by the hours of use per day (for less than an hour you’ll need to make this a decimal), then divide the total by 1000.

The final cost per kWh will depend on two factors: your energy tariff rate and where you live.
