Hisun stand mixers at Night Owl

Five machines across four bowl sizes. SMX05 and SMX05D take a 5L bowl, SMX07 a 7L, SMX08 an 8L and SMX010D a 10L, the last two being the sizes a small bakery or a household that makes dough in quantity actually needs. The D models are the digital ones, with a display and stepped speeds in place of a lever.

How to choose

Bowl volume is only half the answer; the rest is what you make in it. Whipping cream or egg whites needs a bowl the beater can reach the bottom of, so a big mixer handling two eggs performs worse than a small one. Bread dough is the opposite case, loading the motor hard for minutes at a time, and that is where the 8L and 10L bodies earn their weight. For cakes and icing every week, 5L is plenty and takes far less counter.
