I will tell you here by my new Bosch MaxxiMUMX30GXDE with Sensor Control.

***********
The machine is supplied with a whisk, whisk, dough hook and a food processor with 4 stainless steel discs. A robust anti-splash cover and a filling aid are also included.
Features (spoken by the manufacturer):

Intelligent Teigsensor: constant stirring speed, even with heavy doughs
Extra large XXL bowl with 5.4 l capacity
1600 W motor

3D PlanetaryMixing system: Optimally-mixed ingredients by stirring movements in three directions
EasyArm Elevator: Easy lifting the mixer head at your fingertips
Appearance:
********
You can see the quality and feel them too! It is a very nice all-metal housing in a beautiful, noble and especially matt shade. So no fingerprints. It is decorated beautifully modern. The brushed stainless steel bowl also looks right out of class. All Aufsteckplätze can be closed with black lids. Unfortunately, she has no automatic retracting cable. But there is a Kabelaufrollfach so that you can still recover nicely tuck the cable.
In any case, it is a really nice looker and it would be a shame to hide them in the kitchen cabinet.
Structure:
**********
The machine is a bit heavier, but a woman can still lift without any problems. But by the weight of it is of course a little harder. In addition, it is held by suction cups. There are not too many buttons or switches, which I also like very much. According to the principle: Keep it simple. A small downer is the manual. However, one has understood times (if it is needed at all).
The multifunction arm is really very easy to use and through the Easy Armlift to use it, simply by pressing a button. Very playful.
But what a little bothers me is that there's no right or snapping eject function for the tools. But with a little practice it works well without any problems.
Stainless steel bowl and splash guard:
************************************************** ***
The brushed stainless steel bowl is really very high. Potiche summarizes all the 5.4 L and has two handles and a spout. At the bottom of the bowl is a slight increase, so that the ingredients are all beautifully finished. As the bowl is connected with a click / snap securely to the mixer housing, it is also correct. However, you should watch a little at the onset, so that no one comes to the housing, as this may give scratches.
What I find very beautiful, is that the transparent splash protection cover easily slides on the bowl and flush closes. However, I have forgotten this one and could use without any problems during the stirring him.
The fact that the tools always stop in the rear position, I think that's great (EasyFill). So you can easily top up through the filling device. And it remains on the tool nothing.
A huge plus is that the tools are dishwasher safe.
The food processor plus matching washers:
************************************************** ********
A cutting-turning disc are included coarse / fine, rasp-turning disc medium-fine coarse / fine, friction and friction coarse. Really a very nice selection. But there are also a wide range of other disks that you can buy later. For example, the Asia-vegetable plate or the French disc. Unfortunately, these are also quite expensive, but I think my curiosity is yet to win.
The insertion of the discs was really effortless and has easy folded. Only when closing / opening the lid and when placing the device on the paddle it has no equal work right away. But after a few tries, it went even better. It includes everything aligned and seated. The food processor is dark and opaque, so that also can discolor anything. I find great!
The vegetables were really super crushed! All very fine and not mushy. It all went very quick. It remained a small piece remaining vegetables on the disk are. But I can live with. There was nothing wrong, so that the work area remained clean. The cleaning was also very fast.
TIP: You can use the food processor even without the XL bowl. Simply Tupperware topsy questions and ready.
Dough hooks:
**************
Here you can see what the Maxximum can! The dough hook is suitable for firm dough as yeast doughs. But I use it also very happy for thick cookie dough.
The dough hook works its way through the beautiful ingredients and mixes them uniformly to form a uniform mass. It leaves no residue. I have for him ever used to mix my hash browns ingredients. Very nice if you do not have to get their hands dirty. The dough hooks has an additional attachment, so that the dough does not hochkrabbelt. Very good.
The cleaning was very simple. Either in the dishwasher or by hand.
Whisk:
**************
The whisk is a kind of silicone lip that captures on the sides of the bowl all the ingredients. So really all the ingredients are mixed. I use it mainly for normal cake batters and the like, or for blending egg whites, cream, cream.
I'm really excited! The beater has really taken all the ingredients completely and mixed. It was a fun to watch the machine in how it performed his little ballet. :-) This is called Bosch the 3D PlanetaryMixing system is stirred at the in three directions. The dough was really breezy and was later also pinned on cake.
Sensor Control function (with whisk):
************************************************** *****
Very curious I was, of course, whether the sensor control function actually works.
For this we need the whisk. When inserting the whisk you have to push in it a little tighter, but then he snaps and securely. The Sensor Control function promises perfect whipped cream, without the need to be careful. Furthermore, there is in the instruction manual that you should take for optimum results pure cream with no additives. The Sensor Control works from 300 ml cream. Of course it's inconvenient because the supermarket cup hold 200 ml. Thus, if you want only 200 ml, should work manually.
Operation is super simple: Press button, turn switch and relax :-)
As announced, the machine automatically stopped and I was really very nice, perfect cream. Incidentally worked Eischnee also excellent.
From Noise ago the machine was absolutely fine. Even quieter than I would have expected.
The cleaning was again quite simple and straightforward.
Conclusion:
********
Great design, high quality materials and a real powerhouse! The Maxximum is a real kitchen help and saved me an awful lot of time and a lot of power. It is easy to use, quick to clean and creates magnificent results.
Although Maxximum has here and there a little room for improvement as an eject button for the tools, but grds. I am very excited and do not want to miss the Maxximum!
All in all it was just lovely simple and relaxing. I spend a buy rating and 5 stars!
