Buffalo 29Ltr Planetary Stand Mixer

The Buffalo 29-litre planetary stand mixer is a free-standing commercial mixing machine designed for professional kitchens producing large batches on a regular basis. It uses a planetary mixing action — the attachment rotates on its own axis while orbiting the bowl — which ensures thorough, even mixing throughout the full volume of the bowl, including ingredients that settle toward the base.

In a working kitchen environment, this type of mixer earns its place in bakeries, hotel kitchens, contract catering operations, and busy restaurant prep areas where mixing demands are consistent and high-volume. The 1.5kW motor handles bread doughs, pastry batters, whipped creams, and sauces without labouring, and the three-speed selection allows operators to match mixing intensity to the task. The bowl lifts into position via a lever mechanism, which makes loading and unloading easier during a busy prep shift.

From an operational standpoint, this mixer offers several practical advantages:

• Three attachments included — whisk, dough hook, and beater — covering the most common mixing tasks
• Bowl and all attachments are dishwasher-safe, which supports fast turnaround between batches
• The external surfaces are straightforward to wipe down between uses
• Lever-assisted bowl lift reduces physical effort during repetitive use
• Free-standing design requires no fixed installation beyond a stable, level work surface

One important practical note: this machine requires hardwiring rather than a standard plug connection, so electrical installation by a qualified professional is necessary before use. At 160kg, it is also a substantial piece of equipment — access, floor loading, and positioning should be considered before delivery. It is worth confirming the intended location can accommodate both the footprint and the weight before ordering.

This mixer is well suited to medium to high-output professional kitchens with regular, varied mixing requirements. It is a practical choice for operations that need reliable daily performance from a single machine. Sites with significantly higher throughput, or those mixing very stiff doughs in large quantities throughout the day, may benefit from considering a heavier-duty model with greater motor capacity.

If you are unsure whether this capacity is the right fit for your kitchen's output, or have questions about the electrical requirements, the team is happy to talk it through with you before you order.
