Ankarsrum Essential Package

A stand mixer built around a rotating bowl, not a motor in the head.

The Assistent Original places its 600-watt motor in the base, creating a low center of gravity and leaving the top of the 7-liter bowl open. Ingredients are easy to add, and you can see the mixture as it works.

The motor automatically adjusts its power to match the load, while Ankarsrum's gear system delivers the force needed for demanding mixing and kneading. Variable speed control and a built-in 12-minute timer keep operation straightforward.

Ankarsrum Assistent Original Stand Mixer Essential Package - Light Creme - A stand mixer built around a rotating bowl, not a motor in the head.

Ankarsrum Essential Package

Made in Sweden since 1940 and individually tested before it leaves the factory.

The Assistent Original's cast aluminum body, motor-in-base construction, adjustable arm, and rotating bowl set it apart from a conventional tilt-head stand mixer.

Every machine is individually tested before leaving the factory, and the machine base carries a 7-year warranty.

What stands out

Signature Features

7 L rotating steel bowl

The bowl rotates from below and stays open from above, making it easy to add ingredients and keep an eye on the mixture.

600 W motor in the base

The motor sits low in the base to help keep the mixer steady, while motor feedback automatically adjusts power to match the load.

Kneads up to 11 lb of dough

The stainless steel bowl can handle up to 5 kg, or 11 lb, of dough and recipes made with up to 1.5 liters of liquid.

Dough Roller and Dough Hook

The Dough Roller handles kneading, whipping, and mixing. The Dough Hook uses a pulling action for heavier doughs such as rye, whole-wheat, bagel, pretzel, and brioche.

Variable speed and timer

One knob controls variable speed; the other works as the on/off control and built-in 12-minute timer.

Built to expand

Optional Ankarsrum accessories add functions for pasta, ice cream, meat grinding, blending, shredding, citrus juicing, milling, and more.

From Our Founder

"The Essential Package is the version I would choose when bread and dough are the main reason you want an Ankarsrum. Light Creme keeps the machine visually warm and understated, while the large bowl, roller, knife, and hook give you the core system that makes the Assistent so different to use."

Tony Boulton, Founder, Design & Grace
