Review: Savisto Retro Food Stand Mixer

When time allows I love to bake. If you ask Mr H his favourite baked good that I make it would undoubtedly be Chocolate Brownies. As for the boys, they love helping me bake but their favourite part is always licking the spoon!

Previously, I’ve always used a food processor for baking which although does the job, it’s not ideal – especially when making larger quantities as I find that flour inevitably ends up getting caked around the bottom of the mixer attachment.

I have wanted a stand mixer for a while now but could never quite justify spending out the money on one, so when Savisto offered to send me one for review I happily accepted!

Savisto is an English company that aims to provide stylish looking gadgets and accessories into the home and kitchen (and stylish they are). They stock a huge array of items ranging from Kitchenware, Home and Health & Beauty.

The Stand Mixer comes with a large stainless steel bowl equipped with a splash guard. It also has three attachments, a spatula and a small recipe book. I had a quick look through the recipe book and decided to try the Peanut Butter Cookies recipe from it.

The mixer has six speeds and a pulse option which allows you to work through ingredients easily. I used speed three and four for the cookies as per the instructions and found the mixer really easy to use. I simply had to measure out my ingredients and pop them through the hole of the splash guard and before long my cookie dough was ready.

Overall, I found the mixer simple to operate and most importantly easy to clean too. The bowl can be removed from the mixer with ease and the attachments can be dismantled quickly for cleaning. The spatula is super handy for helping you get your cake mix out of the bowl as well.

Using the Savisto Stand Mixer was like a walk in the park compared to using my food processor. I am really looking forward to baking some more goodies in the weeks to come and especially in the run-up to Christmas! I am looking forward to making pizza dough and bread with it using the dough hook. Hopefully, this means I can save some much-needed space in our kitchen and throw our (very old) bread maker away! I may even attempt making my own pastry for mince pies this year – so watch this space!

The stand mixer currently retails at £95.99 which I think is really reasonable compared to other brands that are out there. It would make the perfect gift for any budding bakers out there who (like me) don’t already own one. Best of all? It won’t break the bank either.

You can buy the Savisto Stand Mixer (which comes with a 2-year guarantee) from the Savisto website. Why not follow them on Facebook or Twitter too?

  1. I bet those peanut butter cookies taste good, I’m sure if I had a mixer like this I would bake more!

  2. That mixer looks amazing! I really want a new one so I might look into this brand! #KCACOLS

  3. Jason @tassiedad

    What a beautiful looking machine! That price is pretty incredible too! I have been wanting something similar to this for ages, but can’t justify the $600 price tag (350pounds).
    Look forward to seeing yummy recipes in the future!
    Thanks for sharing
    #KCACOLS

  4. It’s when I see things like these (beautiful and shiny) that I wish I wasn’t so useless in the kitchen! Aaargh! Please share the end product when you get baking more! #KCACOLS

  5. My husband asked me what I wanted for Christmas. So I have the answer now 🙂 #KCACOLS

  6. I would be lost without my food mixer, this one looks very stylish #KCACOLS

  7. I would love a stand mixer but it’s a luxury I can’t afford since I can’t justify buying one as I probably wouldn’t use it as much as I say I would. I have great intentions of being a wonderful baker but it never really works out that way 🙂 #kcacols

  8. That looks fab I would love a mixer like this (it would also help if I was any good at baking too lol) #kcacols xx

  9. I have a Kenwood KMix and love it. I always forget to use the splash guard though because I’m a muppet! #kcacols

  10. kristin mccarthy

    I have always wanted a fancy stand mixer…I don’t think I would really use it as my fat ass does not need baked good lying around- I just think they are so adorable!

    #KCACOLS

  11. Looks like a great mixer. I have a stand mixer as well and have fun using it. I love the fact that yours is red #kcacols

  12. I love my kitchen aid mixer, this looks similar I am sure you will love it! #kcacols

  13. OMG that this is BEAUTIFUL!!! I couldn’t survive without my mixer but it has been on a rough and long ride and we will be needing a new one withing a few years….#KCACOLS

  14. That’s a handsome looking mixer! I have a K mix which I love, I haven’t tried making bread in it yet, but I might just have to try now you’ve given me the idea! #KCACOLS

  15. What a great item to get in exchange for a review! I have a Kenwood mixer which I swear by! #KCACOLS

  16. Great product – I have been thinking about getting a new blender for a while. xx #KCACOLS

  17. I am getting into baking in a big way, and my 2 year old loves it…I would love to get a mixer, and this one looks perfect, especially the price! #KCACOLS

  18. Mommy's Little Princesses

    Love the colour of Savisto mixer it looks so stylish. Lovely review hon and I’m glad it’s a walk in the park to use. P.s. the peanut butter cookies sound yummy too.xx #KCACOLS

  19. That is a gorgeous mixer, I love red accessories for the kitchen! This sounds really nice to use too, and I love the sound of anything that’s easy to clean afterwards! x #KCACOLS

  20. I’ve always wanted a stand mixer (I’ve made a few pitches to companies! lol!) Our daughter is the baker in our family so she would love one of these. The colour looks fab too. Thanks for sharing your review, Maria! So lovely to meet you at Blogfest too! #KCACOLS

  21. Fran Back With A Bump

    That looks a god mixer and so much cheaper than a KitchenAid which I have been hankering after for years and which would probably just end up gathering dust as making too many cakes could be dangerous! Thanks for co-hosting #kcacols

  22. I love the colour of this mixer. I have just won one, but not used it yet #KCACOLS

  23. My husband has been lusting after a stand mixer for years and someday we had hoped to buy one of the very expensive Kitchenaid ones. This looks like an affordable alternative though and I’m glad to hear that you have found it effective. #kcacols

  24. I love the look of the mixer and what a fantastic price. That is a great alternative to a Kitchenaid #KCACOLS

  25. Lucy's Locket

    It is stylish! I also use my food processor for baking when I get the time, which isn’t all that often. This does look easier to clean #KCACOLS

  26. This does look very good! I’m looking for a new one… Maybe Santa will oblige… Not that I actually need a new one of course.
    #KCACOLS

  27. This looks fantastic! I’ve always wanted a stand mixer so I’m a bit jealous of your gorgeous Savisto mixer! It sounds so easy to use. Thank you for hosting #KCACOLS x

  28. Laura Delaney

    Ooh very fancy! I’m not the one for baking, although I do enjoy it – mainly because I don’t have much baking equipment! This would definitely come in handy as I’m so fed up with using a manual whisk and my arm gets so tired after only a minute or two!! Great review. #KCACOLS xx

  29. Ooh I’d love one like that, it looks super stylish, I’d love a black one to match my kitchen… just in case Santa’s reading of course 😉 #kcacols

  30. Katy - Hot Pink Wellingtons

    This sounds wonderful, and so much more affordable than that other famous brand that comes to mind! It looks great too, definitely one to keep out on the kitchen counter! #KCACOLS

  31. The food mixer looks amazing and it sounds amazing, too! Great value too, so reasonably priced! #KCACOLS

  32. This looks and sounds amazing. I’ve only got a food processor and I’d love a stand mixer like this. I bet those peanut butter cookies tasted yummy xx #kcacols

  33. The Tale of Mummyhood

    What a fancy piece of kit, I could only dream of having this is my kitchen!

    #KCACOLS

  34. This looks really nice and sounds like a great mixer. I have always wanted a stand mixer but don’t think I would get enough use out of it yet. When my daughter is a little older then I definitely hope to bake more with her so will have to bear this brand in mind. Hope you enjoy your baking over Christmas! #KCACOLS

  35. That’s a really good price! We’ve been considering a Kenwood one for ages but this looks like it might do the trick. Thanks for sharing #KCACOLS

  36. Andrea @Topsy Turvy Tribe

    The mixer is a thing of beauty! Definitely on my wish list #KCACOLS

  37. Ooh I love my mixer! Makes all of my baking so much easier to do and also Mia can help a little bit as well which is nice. This mixer looks amazing and well worth the price tag 🙂

  38. We are a real spoon-licker family too. Surprised anything ever gets left over. Handsome machine and I love the shiny red colour #KCACOLS

  39. Such a reasonable price for a stand mixer! x #KCACOLS

  40. I’m so jealous! I would love to review baking equipment on my blog! I love baking, particularly cupcakes. This one looks amazing, mainly due to the splash guard which mine does not have. It’s such a pain when I mix flour or icing sugar and it goes EVERYWHERE! #KCACOLS

  41. I’m so jealous you got to review this! It’s amazing! I am a keen baker, particularly cupcakes. Since moving i haven’t got to grips with my new gas oven so its taking some experimenting! My mixer doesn’t have the splash guard or look half as stylish! Icing sugar goes everywhere! #KCACOLS

  42. The mixer looks great, looks like it would do a great job of making cakes for Christmas.
    #KCACOLS

  43. This is lovely!I have the same problem with my food processor, we made a cake with pumpkin at Halloween and it was horrific to try and clean. Would love the hubby to get me one like this. Hint 😉 x #kcacols

  44. Looks good, and the red would go very well in my kitchen! Pen x #KCACOLS

  45. Oh I would love a stand mixer. I’ve wanted a Kitchen Aid for so long but this looks really good! I’ll have to drop some hints for Christmas haha!

    #KCACOLS

  46. The mixer looks so pretty! I usually hate red but it looks really nice actually! #KCAKOLS

  47. A very cool-looking mixer, and a decent price too! #KCACOLS

  48. Oh man, this is one of my dream purchases. There are certain things that are wants, not needs, that I just can’t afford right now, but are on my list for when we can! #kcacols

  49. First, I want the cookies! Second, looks like a really great product. I have never owned a mixer, but I really would like to someday.
    #kcacols

  50. Hubby wants to get me a mixer for xmas I think, since he saw me make cakes with our daughter at the weekend and gave it a go himself. At least that’s better than the ironing board idea ha ha ha #kcacols

  51. Hubby wants to get me a mixer for xmas I think, since he saw me make cakes with our daughter at the weekend and gave it a go himself. At least that’s better than the ironing board idea ha ha ha #kcacols

  52. Oh I love this, and the colour is fab!! We don’t use our food mixer very often as I’m useless at baking, but I do love the look of it! #kcacols

  53. ooo I have alwasy wondered about these, thanks so much for the detailed review! #KCACOLS

  54. This looks like a great stand mixer and very reasonably priced. I have never heard of this brand before, I have a kitchen aid and I love it #KCACOLS

  55. Sarah @tortoisehappy.com

    Must be great for the bakers out there! I have a little hand mixer and for the amount of baking I do (maybe 6 times per year) that does me just fine 🙂 #KCACOLS

  56. Oh I’ve always wanted one of these I have such happy memories of baking with my grandma using hers! It looks fab too. #KCACOLS xx

  57. Carolina Twin Mom / Mary Peterson

    You had me at “easy clean up.” Most of the time I will avoid baking projects that involve a mixer or food processor because I know that I’ll be spending more time cleaning up (the worst part). #KCACOLS

  58. awww what a fab opportunity to review this! sounds really good and agree that the retail price isnt awful really compared with what else is out there! #KCACOLS

  59. I always wanted to buy something similar but the prices were way too high for me. This one has a good price. Thank you for this review. #KCACOLS

  60. Alana - Burnished Chaos

    Love the colour, mine is just a boring grey. Good value for money too x
    #KCACOLS

  61. Reads like a great product to have in the kitchen. #KCACOLS

  62. I didn’t know this brand but this mixer looks amazing I would love to try it
    #KCACOLS

  63. Poppy Reflects

    I love to bake and always lust over mixers but can’t justify one! This looks great, I’m glad you are enjoying it x #KCACOLS

  64. The mixer looks amazing but I’m pretty sure I can’t justify buying one just yet! Maybe Santa will bring me one for this year if I’m really good! #KCACOLS

  65. Looks like a great mixer very stylish! I bet the baking was yummy too!! 😉 #KCACOLS

  66. If I had a larger kitchen a big mixer would be top of my list! And this one would match my red kettle and red toaster so nicely! #KCACOLS

  67. I’d love one of these! Hoping when we move, they’ll be space to get one! #KCACOLS

  68. Nicky Kentisbeer

    That looks like a bit of a dream Maria! I have a little lady wanting one for Christmas so I’m in the process of looking for a kid friendly one. It will be a bit of an update on the one I had when I was a child (which I still have). #KCACOLS

  69. The Speed Bump

    Ooh that looks great, I’ll check them out because I’m on the hunt for a mixer at the moment! #KCACOLS

  70. Is this the one that’s sold in Liddl? It just looks a lot like this one. 😀
    Hubby is dying for one of these – I’ll show him your review! 😀 Thanks so much for sharing.

    #KCACOLS

  71. I am an awful cook but now Harry is old enough i do enjoy baking with him and have to admit i have had my eye on one of these for a while. It looks very stylish and i love the retro look #KCACOLS

  72. This looks great, I really want a stand mixer x #KCACOLS

  73. That looks amazing! My wife would love that as she loves her baking! #KCACOLS

  74. I bet those cookies were gorgeous! It looks fab and so easy to use too! #kcacols

  75. I recently reviewed the kenwood KMIx on my YouTube channel which seems to be very similar to this (but more expensive!) i love your photos / they look great #kcacols

  76. Fab review hun! This is such a great piece of equipment, I’ve already made banana bread, lemon drizzle and chocolate cupcakes on ours. #KCACOLS

  77. This is such a beautiful looking mixer! I’ve coveted one for ages. You are very lucky to get to review one! Maybe Santa will be good to me? #KCACOLS

  78. Sounds good! I never really use any kitchen gadgets like this but I should, as I may make more stuff if it was really easy! #KCACOLS

  79. I could totally do with one of these! Be far more easier than the hand whisk! Great review 🙂 #MarvMondays

  80. Sorry wrong Linky #KCACOLS

  81. Oh wow my husband would love one of those! I absolutely love the style and colour. It would look so good in my kitchen! #KCACOLS

  82. I don’t have a mixer, but this has really made me want one! I always think they cause more washing up, but thinking about it that’s not true at all! You are so good having a bread maker, I’ve never made bread in my life…perhaps I should give it a go? You will get so much use out of this making all of those treats for Christmas xx #KCACOLS
