to cross-check various assessments of different devices, many spoke of this and I am very happy with the result. Handy, quiet, good hand feeling and despite the plastic housing there is set a solid overall impression. Full metal devices (eg by Phillips are of course still-quality but also considerably more expensive). To date, the Bosch MFQ4020 mastered everything. An assessment on the durability I can not give, however. For that the device is not long enough to use. However, I'm pretty good things and so far convinced that we have good shopped. There are the BOSCH stirrer still lower or higher power. The compromise with 450Watt has completely enough even when kneading dough firmer. The criticized in some descriptions to low speed, I can not understand. Replaced was a KRUPS 3 Mix 3000 whose stirring rods for long, trouble-free years gave up the ghost. A main focus in the search for successors was on a quieter if possible device and here, the BOSCH convince well.
Additional, 03/29/2015: After more than 4 years, it is a good buy without restrictions. Running properly and the stirring rods are still stable and wobble-free in its plastic plug mounting. The cable does not have signs of fatigue fracture, as he sometimes adjusts to device connections. However we handle not possible attention to, because the cable outlet of the housing, with a swiveling bend protection, which is not recommended.
