Review on Food processor Bosch MCM 4100, 800 W, white/black by Aneta Felner ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Reliable product for all occasions, quality on par.

I have been using it for over 5 years. Everything is working properly. This is my first harvester, so there is nothing to compare with. In general, the presence of a combine is a thousand times better than its absence. I would like the manufacturers to take into account all these shortcomings and correct them. In the years that have passed since my purchase, the manufacturers have not changed anything in the combines. All the same equipment is sold on the shelves without improvements.

Pros
  • Power. Everything cuts, rubs and kneads very quickly. Kneads the dough into a ball in 3-5 minutes! In seconds, it makes powdered sugar from sugar or grinds oatmeal into flour (although I couldn’t grind cinnamon, I just scratched the plastic bowl very badly and I stopped experimenting). It didn't take me long to figure out the egg beater. However, the eggs beat perfectly, to white peaks in less than a minute. (approx. after a couple of years, for some reason, it takes him longer to beat eggs with sugar to peaks - about 10 minutes)
Cons
  • A small hole for entering vegetables (you have to cut potatoes or carrots in half, cabbage has to be cut into slices of 4 centimeters thick - inconvenient) There is no medium grater (there are only small and large ones). I once read that you can buy additional nozzles, but I did not find where to buy them. Liquid cream 20% fat just spills down. I have never been able to beat them. It's hard to mix something in a blender if it's wet but not liquid enough. For example, make vegetable puree from boiled vegetables. I constantly add liquid and mix with a spoon. Sometimes, when you mix the shortbread dough, the knife rises, stops interfering and you have to manually screw it down. A citrus juicer is inconvenient, since you hold the fruit with your hand and, despite all the power, you have to hold it for a long time to squeeze the juice. It's terribly annoying. Want a more automated citrus juicer. This does not apply to a juicer for hard fruits and vegetables - it does everything quickly (but you have to cut fruits / vegetables because of the small hole).
