Negative For 30 years, I swear on Krups hand mixer. I (male) is never a kaputtgegangen. But this device is only what is broken .... because I'll throw it out the window. No matter what kind of ingredients I want to mix ..... they all hang on the kitchen wall. One should have a bowl that is at least 40cm deep, so that the mixer completely disappear in it. On the lowest setting, the liquid ingredients fly on the wall and dry ingredients such as flour, provide a non-transparent smokescreen. There is also the the dough hook reinzieht the dough in the machine. And the right short cable requires many outlets in the kitchen .... so you can mix anywhere ..
