my mum's Kenwood mixer probably 1965 vintage is enjoying a 2nd life with my sister as her new one fell of the bench when the earthquake munted her house 10 years ago
my mum baked a lot - it never missed a beat
i wish i had one but i have never had the bench space
Speed Queen still manufactures in Wisconsin I think. We have their washer and dryer and they are workhorses. We bought the commercial grade and they handled 20 loads per week with no issues.
Not "cool' like red front load LG's with touchpads---but functionally they are great. No issues.
