We bought this Handrührer not quite 2 years ago. A positive aspect, however, one has to mention: He is kindly broken within the warranty period! At the beginning we were very impressed by this device - it has done easily with its powerful engine, the most work. However, you should always wear old clothes during operation and have a rag are within reach to wipe the inevitable splashes of worktop and wall! Soon the mixing paddle began beating and arresting crumbled from the plastic! In short: quite a scrap! In the tests, perhaps the long-term quality should also be taken into account once - that would avoid many misunderstandings! Thanks to the unproblematic handling of Amazon we get our money back in no time! Many thanks!
