I bought this machine about 10 years ago and uses them often and follow the instructions. My mother has bought this machine at the same time, but has its yeast and pasta dough with dough hook, however, the manual always stirred at level 4. Now the engine has since blessed TIMELINESS - after more than 10 years. Originally I wanted to have a Kitchen Aid. The cost for a Multiple of this one and is not even able to hit a single egg whites because the whisk not reach far enough into the bowl. My mother wanted a new food processor and then we found when searching on this unbeatable offer here at Amazon. She got the machine, I have kept the accessories (blender, cutting, etc.), the price we shared. A win-win situation is called the well :-) I hope my machine keeps still quite long, and I do not hope that Bosch takes this machine from the program. I am passionate bakers. I let my bread dough knead for about 10 minutes with this machine and the machine runs and runs and runs ..... I would buy them again at any time. I have read in some reviews that the vegetable slicer cuts vegetables not tidy. These people do something wrong. The machine makes it outstanding. Only the V-planing of Börner makes it better. But that's not so important to me.
