The low down: This model is not just a stand mixer, it’s a food processor too! The Bosch MUM59340GB comes with all the essential attachments for baking, but also includes cooking prep must-haves including shredder discs for grating, chopping and slicing, a citrus press juicer and a meat mincer. Considering all these extra attachments, this mixer is surprisingly compact and would fit neatly in a cupboard.
A three-zone moveable ‘arm’ accommodates the various attachments and the easily manoeuvrable head, adjusted at the touch of a button, makes it simple to insert and remove the stainless-steel mixing bowl. This model also features a heightadjustable planetary mixing head, to ensure the beating whisk and kneading hook reach right to the edge of the bowl so that all of the ingredients are incorporated. The flexi-stirring whisk uses a sweeping and rotating motion, great for blending butter and flour together at the beginning of your baking prep. When kneading dough, the machine can move a bit, so it’s best to keep an eye on it and place it far from the counter edge. All the attachments are dishwasher safe.
The culinary possibilities and high performance this machine offers justify the higher price tag, as its dual function saves having to buy a separate stand mixer and food processor – ideal for keen bakers and cooks.
