Ankarsrum Assistent Original Stand Mixer Essential Package - Harmony Beige
Swedish-made stand mixer with rotating 7 L stainless steel bowl, signature dough roller, and matte Harmony Beige finish
The Ankarsrum Assistent Original Essential Package in Harmony Beige gives you the core setup for bread dough, batters, cookie dough, whipped cream, and other everyday mixing. Its rotating 7-liter stainless steel bowl keeps the work open and visible, while the motor sits in the base for stability and the signature dough roller kneads with a gentle motion designed to mimic working dough by hand.

Built Around the Bowl
The Assistent Original works differently from a conventional planetary stand mixer. The 7-liter stainless steel bowl rotates while the dough 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.
For bread, the dough roller provides Ankarsrum's signature kneading method, gently pressing and stretching dough against the side of the bowl. The included dough hook gives you an alternative approach for denser and heavier doughs such as rye, whole grain, bagel, pretzel, and brioche.
Serious Capacity for Bread and Everyday Baking
The 7-liter bowl handles both small and large batches and can work with dough containing up to 1.5 liters of liquid. Ankarsrum rates the machine for up to 5 kg, or approximately 11 pounds, of dough, giving you room for multiple loaves, pizza dough, rolls, and other larger baking projects.
The motor is positioned in the machine base rather than above the bowl, which keeps the center of gravity low and the workspace above the bowl clear.
Signature Features
Rotating 7 L stainless steel bowl: Gives you an open view of the mixture and enough capacity for both everyday recipes and large dough batches.
Signature dough roller: Mimics the rhythmic pressure of hand kneading and works across bread dough, batter, cookie dough, cream, and other mixtures.
Dedicated dough hook: Provides an alternative kneading style particularly useful for dense or heavy bread doughs.
Dough knife: Continuously guides ingredients and dough back toward the center of the bowl while the mixer runs.
600W motor: Works with Ankarsrum's geared drive system to handle demanding mixing and kneading tasks.
Up to 11 lb of dough: Large-batch capacity makes the Assistent Original especially useful for serious bread baking.
Motor in the base: Keeps the machine stable and leaves the mixing bowl completely open from above.
Made in Sweden: The Assistent Original has been manufactured in Sweden since 1940, with each machine individually tested before leaving the factory.
Matte Harmony Beige finish: Gives the mixer a warm neutral color with a softer, understated surface.
From Our Founder
"The Essential Package is the version I would choose when dough is the main reason you want an Ankarsrum. You get the large stainless bowl, roller, hook, and the tools that make the Assistent so different from a conventional stand mixer, then you can add specialty accessories as your cooking expands."
Tony Boulton, Founder, Design & Grace
