Purchased this, works well, nice tool. But, it comes with a European plug, not a UK plug, and has just burned out the fuse on my adaptor after 2 uses. Probably should be mentioned, given i bought it on the amazon.co.uk site and it's being delivered to the UK.

WARNING TO ALL UK CUSTOMERS DO NOT PURCHASE THIS PRODUCT.Would have given zero stars if it was possible. This machine can not be used in the UK as it only comes with an EU two pin plug. Cut this off to put a UK three pin plug on will void the warranty.

This comes with EU plug and not the UK one.

I purchased this food mixer in April 2019, it is an appalling machine! I have to stand & hold the bowl in place whilst it mixes the ingredients otherwise the motor cuts out as the bowl unlocks itself from the base of the machine. For some reason I can not return it to Amazon, having rang Bosch for support they told me to go back to Amazon & return it!

The dough mixer may be ok. The rest of functionality is not good. Cutting attachments assembly is very inconvenient. Blender is very slow in comparison to other machines I had.Making whipped cream or similar products is hard, as mixer is too slow for good result.All in all this looks trendy and authentic but functionally it is not good at all.

So, I bought one of this in order to make bread and cakes.
Pros: Cute color, the accessories are good (blender and cutters), the whisk and dough hook works well.
Cons: The cable is not rectratable, the “beater” accessory does not mix well. The whisk works well depending of the ingredients: I was not able to make chantilly with just 2dl of whipping cream - the chantilly does not comes hard, just a strong cream.
The dough hook works very well but, after a fee uses, now I can hear the whisk accessory scratching the bottom of the bowl :( And I dont know how much time the motor will survive making bread.
So, I was in need of a solution with a blender, a strong motor and that was capable to make bread. I just think that I can go with another brand or model next time (like bosch universal plus)

Does lots of things, but doesn’t do any of them particularly well. I like that this one machine does so much - I was able to get rid of 3 different electrical appliances and a few food prep gadgets, and replace them all for this one machine that does everything, so have saved valable space in my small kitchen. However.. my old Kenwood food processor worked so much better! The blender on this struggles with anything that’s much thicker in consistency than milk, and sounds like it’s going to blow up. There is also a very slight leak from the bottom of the jug if you use it for anything too thin in consistency. I can’t quite work out where it’s coming from, there don’t appear to be any cracks in the jug.. it’s not much, just a few droplets so I don’t think it’s anything to worry about, but it shouldn’t be happening on a new machine! The cheap unknown brand stand mixer that I had before this was much better in some ways.. seemed far more powerful and no cake mix was too much for it. This one struggles with a basic thick Madeira cake batter so I’ve not even dared try it with a fruit cake mix! The bowl capacity is quite small too, you can’t make big batches with this as the attachment for the beater is quite chunky and gets covered in batter if you put too much in at once. On a positive note, the shape of the bowl and the silicone edge on the beater paddle work really well together with the orbital motion, so it really does incorporate every last bit of mixture and scrape the side of the bowl properly all the way around. There are lots of other attachments but they are quite bulky and not all that easy to store. The citrus juicer works really well compared to just squeezing over a manual one, bit not sure it’s worth it for the amount of space the attachment takes up.For the price I expected a more powerful machine from Bosch
