Swedish-made stand mixer with rotating 7 L stainless steel bowl, signature dough roller, and metallic-gloss Red finish
The Ankarsrum Assistent Original Essential Package in Red gives you the core tools that make this mixer especially capable with bread dough and everyday baking. Its rotating 7-liter stainless steel bowl keeps the work open and visible, while the signature dough roller gently presses and stretches dough against the bowl in a motion designed to mimic kneading by hand.

The Assistent Original works differently from a conventional planetary stand mixer. The 7-liter stainless steel bowl rotates while the roller and dough knife work from above, leaving the bowl open so you can add ingredients and watch the mixture develop without repeatedly stopping the machine.
The dough roller is the signature Ankarsrum tool, applying steady pressure against the side of the bowl as dough develops. The included dough hook gives you an alternative kneading style when working with heavier or denser bread doughs.
The 7-liter bowl handles both small recipes and substantial baking projects, including doughs with up to 1.5 liters of liquid and batches weighing up to 5 kg, or approximately 11 pounds. The 600-watt motor provides the sustained performance needed for everyday mixing and demanding dough work.
The roller also handles batters and cookie dough and can be used for whipping cream and egg whites, giving the Essential Package useful range before you add any specialty attachments.
Rotating 7 L stainless steel bowl: Keeps the mixture visible and gives you generous room for everyday recipes and larger dough batches.
Signature dough roller: Mimics the gentle pressure of hand kneading and works with bread dough, batters, cookie dough, cream, and egg whites.
Dedicated dough hook: Provides an alternative kneading method for heavier bread doughs when a traditional hook is preferred.
Dough knife: Guides dough and ingredients back toward the center of the bowl as it rotates.
600W motor with motor feedback: Regulates speed in response to load as mixtures become heavier.
Up to 11 lb of dough: Gives serious bread bakers room for multiple loaves, pizza dough, rolls, and other larger batches.
Expandable system: Add Ankarsrum attachments for pasta, ice cream, blending, grinding, slicing, juicing, milling, and more.
Made in Sweden: Ankarsrum has manufactured the Assistent Original in Sweden since 1940, and every machine is individually tested before leaving the factory.
Metallic-gloss Red finish: Gives the mixer a rich, reflective color while chrome-plated zinc controls provide a polished contrast.
"The Essential Package is the version I would choose when bread and dough are the main reason you want an Ankarsrum. The red finish has real presence on the counter, while the large bowl, roller, knife, and hook give you the core system that makes the Assistent so different to use."
