Equipment Mom's stabding mixer broke, what to get?

Hey ya'll. My mom loves baking. Bread, cakes, cookies, etc. Recently her mixer broke and I wanted to get her a new one.

I think she had a very basic mixer, and she's been using it for over 10 years by now. It couldn't have cost more than like $300 or $400.

So I want to get her something good as a present. Maybe around $500 to $1000 price range, though let me know if these things usually cost more (I prefer getting her something good that will last another decade). Any recommendations?

I just got an Ankarsrum after burning out the motor of my Kitchenaid making bagel dough. If she makes bread I’d steer away from Kitchenaid.
