Ideal Home approves the Bosch stand mixer...
The stainless steel version of the Bosch gadget features on our Best Stand Mixers guide
What we say, 'In stand mixer mode it beats, mixes, whisks and kneads like a pro. Inside the mixer's 3.9-litre bowl, there’s enough room to mix up to 2kg of dough with the kneading hook. During testing, dough wrapped around the hook but was easy to remove. The blender also performed well with no lack of power – a common problem with attachments.'
