My "very" old Siemens Handrührer went after 23 years broken unfortunately. So I was looking for a new and looked around at amazon. The mixer liked quite good and the watt strength was decisive for me. When I had, however, read the negative Rezesionen I was not so sure. Nevertheless, I took the risk and ordered him. And I'm thrilled. We are a family of 6 and make a lot of sponge cakes, pasta and especially yeast dough. The mixer maintains all requirements stood. So we there full punk number!
