BoschCleverMixx MFQ2420BGB Hand Mixer, 400 W - Black & Stainless Steel

Brilliant, has all the functions including manual mode, looks good, light and yet sturdy, power is great can do anything, size is normal, super easy to use.Not slippery to hold is what you need, 5/5

I bought this months ago to whip up egg whites, and it doesn't disapoint. Easy to use and clean, not too heavy but has a good weight to it letting you know its well made. Looks good to boot!I can see me using this for years to come!

The media could not be loaded. 1. Has an oval shaped handle which fits nicely in the hand. Very smooth, good thickness, will aid if holding the mixer for prolonged periods.2. Nicely balanced for weight, hangs under gravity in the ready to use position.3. Bright white in colour complimented by bright red ejection of beaters button.4. Has 2 well defined flat surfaces moulded in the body.1 flat surface as a base so before the beaters are inserted it sits on the worktop, handle upward , so its easy to pick up.2 flat surface on the END of the mixer body so that once the beaters are inserted it can be stood up on the worktop, handle in the vertical position.5 .it has a moulded side panel to help with wrapping the cable around the body when ready to store.6. Most surfaces on the mixer body are smooth with curved transitions so that debris from cooking/ mixing does not get trapped in corners and a simple wipe will clean off dirt.7. For a 350w mixer it feels light in the hand. Good for ladies and those elderly with poor wrists who may struggle to use a heavier machine...but want to continue baking etc.8. The operating switches are about 30mm from the grip position. With my large thumb that presents no problem reaching them. Be aware if you have smaller hands.9. The on off controll has 2 options. A manual M position which is sprung and immediately turns the mixer to full power but also immediately turns OFF the mixer when pressure is released.A stepped fixed speed control labelled 0 to 4.0 zero is OFF.Then there are click positions 1,2,3,4 each one a fixed speed.It will continue to operate even if you put the mixer down on the worktop unless you click the position back to 0 zero.These are handy if you want to mix for a longer time and cannot push the M switch over for long periods ( weak thumb..old age etc).10. This machine is light and very quiet for a 350w mixer.11. 350 watts is more powerful than many small cheap mixers.Im expecting long life and an ability to plough through heavy mixes like doughs.PROBLEM.Plz see my video for this mixer.The right beater mixer starts to oscillate at 2 and above.Ive seen other reviews with broken beater heads.I believe this moulded beater head may become detached.I will persevere and see what happens.The left dough beater also oscillates.So it isnt the machine but rather some form of bend or twist in the beaters themselves.The eject is not very positive....it works fine at the moment...but needs a good positive, push to enable beater ejection.Bit expensive overall at £30 but looks good, feels good, not noisey

This has proven to be a great wee mixer. Although it doesn't have the power of some its mixing ability is very good may just take slightly longer. Easy to use and lightweight. Attachments are easy to insert and remove. Variable speeds. I haven't used the dough attachments but they are good quality.

Excellent, good value , plenty of power

Purchased to replace our 30 year old Braun model that stopped working. A lot noisier than expected after reading the reviews and louder than our 30 year old Braun model. We shall see how it works over Christmas and if it lasts.

I mostly use my handheld mixer for making mayonnaise, whipped cream, and/or small quantities of baking recipes that involve flour or icing sugar. The first speed on this hand-held mixer is GENUINELY slow - none of the flour in my bowl ended up on me or the countertop as is usually the case. It is also much quieter than any other hand-held mixer I have ever had, which is great for recipes where you're mixing for a relatively long time (eg mayonnaise, hollandaise). The pay-off is that it doesn't whip as fast as other models. As an indication, my double cream about an extra minute - for me personally I'd rather have quieter kitchen then a faster whip, so I am absolutely delighted to have found a mixer that is both quiet and slow. Definitely a winner in my book.Other observations: 1)The beaters look and feel less robust than others I've had in the past (much thinner), but they do the job well enough, at least for the moment. 2)The mixer has a flat 'end', so it stands securely on a countertop when you put it down. 3)the 'pulse' function being near the 'off' function is manageable imo, and not a serious concern.

Works ok good value for the price
