Since 1940 the Ankarsrum Assistent Original has been made in Sweden, hand-assembled in the town of Ankarsrum and individually tested before it leaves the factory. A 600-watt motor, a 7-liter stainless steel bowl, and a rotating bowl system that works dough from the outside in, the way hands do.

The Essential Package is that same machine in a simpler box: everything you need for dough, without the whisking accessories. It handles up to 11 lbs of dough in one batch and carries a 7-year warranty on the machine base.

About the videos below. Some were filmed before the Essential Package, so you will see the older bowl and whisks on the bench. The machine is the same, only the packaging changed. What ships in your box is the list under What's Included.

Frequently Asked Questions

What comes with the Essential Package?

The 7-liter stainless steel bowl, proofing lid, dough roller, dough knife, dough hook, spatula, a quick start guide and a digital recipe book with 34 recipes. The mixer itself is the same Ankarsrum Original. The plastic whisking bowl, balloon whisks, cookie whisks and printed recipe book are not included and have been discontinued by Ankarsrum.

Do accessories cost less if I buy them with the machine?

Yes. Ankarsrum accessories are 10% off when bought together with an Ankarsrum Essential Package. Enter code ANKARSRUM10 at checkout. The discount applies to accessories only, not to the machine.

How do I get the free Artisan Bread Baker's Kit?

Spend $1,200 or more and the kit is added to your order free. It holds two proofing baskets with liners, a dough scraper, a scoring lame and a dough whisk. We ship it free, and it comes from a different warehouse to the machine, so it usually arrives on a different day. Nothing extra to pay either way.

The videos show accessories I do not see in the list. Why?

Several of Ankarsrum's videos were filmed before the Essential Package, and others show optional attachments. The machine in them is the same machine you receive. What ships in your box is the In the box list above, nothing more.

Can I whip cream or make cake batter with it?

Yes. The dough roller mixes batters and whips cream and egg whites. For a dedicated whisking setup, add the Premium Beaters and Bowl Complete, which includes the beater set, a stainless steel beater bowl and the drive shaft.

Is it good for sourdough?

Yes. The rotating bowl and roller develop gluten gently while reducing strain on the motor, which suits both high hydration and dense doughs. It holds a single artisan loaf or dough for several loaves at once.

How much dough can it mix?

Up to 11 lbs (5 kg) in a single batch, and it still works well with small recipes.

Can it make pizza dough?

Yes. The rotating bowl works the dough while keeping control over gluten development, which gives smooth elastic dough that stretches without tearing. The motor handles several dough balls at once without strain.

Where is it made?

In Sweden, as it has been since 1940, hand-assembled in Ankarsrum's own factory in the town of Ankarsrum, where it has been produced since 1969.

What does the warranty cover?

Seven years on the machine base. Accessories and wear parts are not covered. Warranty support runs through Ankarsrum USA and proof of purchase is required.

Can I use it outside the United States?

Physically yes, if the electrical requirements are met. Warranty coverage through Ankarsrum USA applies only to products bought and used in the United States.

Key Information

• Free Shipping: For orders over $200 within the United States — excludes freight items, see below
• Order Cutoff: 5 PM MST
• Order Handling: 1-2 business days (Monday to Friday)
• Order Transit: 4-7 business days (Monday to Friday)

Freight Items — Large Equipment

Some machines are too large and heavy to ship by parcel carrier. These are marked as freight items on their product page. Commercial mixers, floor grinders, slicers, bowl choppers and similar equipment can weigh anywhere from 100 to 500 lbs and must travel by freight carrier.

For these items, shipping is not included in the checkout total. The cost depends on the machine's weight and dimensions and on your delivery address — a 400 lb spiral mixer going across the country costs considerably more to move than a slicer going one state over, and no single flat rate can cover both honestly.

How it works:

1. You place your order as normal.
2. We work out the exact freight cost for your machine and your address.
3. We contact you with that figure for your approval before anything ships.
4. If it does not work for you, we cancel and refund in full — no argument, no restocking fee.

Nothing leaves the warehouse until you have agreed the freight cost. We also confirm dock access and doorway width before dispatch, so the machine can actually get where it needs to go.

Which items ship free?

Everything that travels by parcel carrier. That includes Ankarsrum stand mixers and all Ankarsrum attachments, panini grills, immersion blender shafts and accessories, smaller graters, and similar items. If a product page does not say it is a freight item, free shipping over $200 applies as normal.
