THE PRIZE

BOSCH kitchen machine

One reader will win a Bosch Kitchen Machine!

MY REVIEW

I think everybody knows that Bosch is the kitchen mixer/machine to beat all others, and if you like to cook/bake at all, you probably want one of these babies. I know I have been drooling over this one kitchen appliance for at least 5 years, and I have done some fabulous things in the kitchen in the last few weeks that made the wait well worth it.

For me, the two main reasons that Bosch is the best kitchen machine  are

  • the 800 watt motor
  • the 6.5 quart mixing bowl

That is exactly the kind of power I need mixing my bread dough, and it makes all the difference in how long the kitchen machine will last and how delicious my food will taste.

I have made bread of the most mouthwatering variety that I was never able to achieve with my other stand mixer. When a recipe says to mix the dough on medium/high for 7 minutes, the Bosch can actually handle that, which means I get much better results.

And I love how the dough hook (used for anything too thick to pour) mixes without smashing. One of my biggest gripes with my old mixer was that it would just grind M&Ms or chocolate chips in cookies to bits, but the Bosch somehow integrates the chips into the dough AND leaves them whole. I’ve also noticed how easy the bowl is to clean. My cookie and bread doughs seem to all stick together and not to the bowl.

Suction feet on the bottom of the machine keep it stationary, the bowl locks easily and securely into place, and this model has a total of 4 speeds and a larger range of speeds overall. There’s also a deep rim around the outside of the bowl which makes it easy to grip.

So far I have gotten better results all across the board with my Bosch kitchen machine, which is just what I was hoping for! My mom has had her Bosch for 30 years, and I expect mine to still be going strong in 2040!

  2. Mmmm the first thing I’d make is cookies! Chocolate chip cookies with dark & milk chip and pecans. Mmmm This would save my arm for more important things like grabbing and lifting to my mouth…Thanks!

  11. I would make some fresh wheat bread and home made butter..,hmmm i can smell it now! thanks for all your black friday giveaways!!!!!!!!!!

  94. I would be making bread!! I have heard raves of this machine and have secretly been wanting one-what a fabulous giveaway!! thanks for the chance to win

  134. Loved your review of this appliance – I’m sold!! :) I’d make wedding cookies first because I’ve already promised my nieces and nephews I’d make some for them for Christmas. :)

  179. The first thing I may make is pound cake. I recently tried making one using my hands to mix it because my mixer was still in storage and that was a big mistake because the texture was really not what it was supposed to be.

  196. What an awesome machine – who doesn’t love a great kitchen appliance – I would make bread – mmmmmmm I can already smell it baking. Thanks for the great opportunities.

  198. the first thing I’ll make is definitely Banana Bread. We love it so much and the smell just fills the house. This machine is awesome! Thanks for the chance!

  219. Right now I can only make half a batch of bread at a time, so I will make a full batch of whole wheat bread!!

  220. Actually, the wattage is irrelevant. As my mother likes to point out, you can have an 800-watt hairdryer, and it won’t do a thing to mix your cookie dough. The Viking mixer has a 900-watt motor, I think (maybe it’s 1,000), but reviewers say it doesn’t handle whole grains well.

    But, with that said, the Bosch is a great machine!

    The first thing I would make with it is cookies – especially at this time of year! :)

  222. This would be fantastic! I’d like to put this in my kitchen. We are always baking. I also like the Bosch Tassimo coffee machine! Thanks.

  261. I am entering this contest for my wife. She has been wanting aBosch machine for years! The first th ing we would make is whole wheat and flax bread.

  262. The first thing I would make is my Grandma’s famous Honey Whole Wheat Bread!!! Would love to have this little baby in my kitchen!!!!!

  309. I would make just something! I haven’t made any cookies, breads, deliciousness in a long time because I don’t have any type of kitchen mixer! But probably bread.

  339. If I were lucky enough to win this fabulous giveaway, the first thing(s) I’d make would be bagels and pizza dough. I bet neither would be any problem in this powerful machine!

  346. OK, I would totally make some sugar cookies and then decorate them with my kids! At first I thought you were asking “what would you make first,before midnight Wednesday, December 2. LOL! I was thinking, gosh, I would not have it if I won, by then…. duh kim! LOL :)

  354. I have 4 kabocha squashes on my counter that have been staring at me for a week. I’d turn them into pumpkin bread!

  356. I’ll make bread and sugar cookies and anything else I can think of! We’re on a tight budget so just about everything we eat is home made and this would make my life a lot easier – my arm gets tired!

  534. My boys and I love making cookies, but my kitchenaid has seen better days and is falling apart, one little part at a time. =) So, chocolate chip cookies. final answer.
