Either I have become weaker or the amounts of dough are larger, at least had the Rodeo number with the conventional hand mixer nothing. A food processor was needed! It should not be in the area more than 200, - go, for as often as I need this also did not really think I do. So it should be of plain stone. For the price unbeatable and the reviews were good. Now we already have a number of yeast dough and kneaded bread mixes and it does what it should and that very well. At the bowl almost nothing gets stuck, everything is thoroughly kneaded. The doughs are very homogeneous and well go on. A single packet of cream is with a whisk and really nice stiff and fluffy without the addition of additives. I am incredibly surprised at what you get everything for the money !!! The machine works, I mean it like that. Of course shaking the arm and she also makes some noise at high speeds. Kneading to Level 2 is still 22:00 clock fit, whip cream at level 6 rather less, but my hand mixer can not both quieter. They bake with the machine simple and more like. That's what matters, right? I would have never thought as a man!
