I bought a Kenwood stand mixer back in March, it was delivered on the 15th (before lock down) What a great piece of kit, and its been used regularly smile I paid £195.74 for it from Amazon. This morning I thought I'd check out some of the attachments available for it, things like mincer/pasta maker etc. So, on the Kenwood website the exact same mixer is £419.99. Somewhat gobsmacked I checked out Amazon... exact same machine again.. now £429.00........ That's an increase of £233.26... in 14 weeks. Either I was very lucky or the price has been hiked due to the baking frenzy that hit the UK after lock down.... If its the latter I think there's a name for it.

Anyone else noticed similar price hikes?

Not so unsual, paid 169.99 for our kMix on Amazon on a cyber Monday deal (2017 mind). Great bit of kit as you say, but they do have regular sales
