Bad points

Bad Points

  • No speeds on dial. Symbols are small and printed around dial on silver plastic and are hard to see and comprehend.
  • Labelling may fade over time.
  • No handle on the bowl for ease of removing from the base and can make removing a load difficult.
  • No eject button to remove beater, hand can come in contact with mixture.
  • Splash guard supplied and is made up of two parts. Can be fiddly to attach.
  • Chute on guard is a little narrow so can be a little messy when adding dry ingredients.
  • Need to remove splash guard every time you want to change the tool or scrape down the bowl.
  • Strength required to move machine and release suction feet from bench.
  • Lacks power on high speed. May need to process for slightly longer.
  • Maximum operating time should not exceed 6 minutes.
