The Bosch brand's reputation for excellence dates back to 1886, when Robert Bosch founded Robert Bosch GmbH as a precision-tool and engineering workshop in Stuttgart, Germany. Today, Bosch makes a wide variety of tools, kitchen appliances, and more. The company's MUM 7400 700-watt stand mixer/food machine helps out so much when cooking, it almost seems as if there's an extra sous chef in the kitchen. A small revolution in stand mixing, the motor is placed under the mixing bowl and is one of the most powerful you'll find among mixers of the same size, with a belt drive system that transmits torque better than many other models. The 12-by-14-by-10-1/4-inch (height by width by depth) mixer drives all accessories off a single mounting position and has four speed settings, plus a momentary pulse function, that install just the right amount of control as you go from fluffing egg whites to making bread. The 6-quart bowl is made of stainless steel, kneads up to 12 pounds of dough, and comes with an antisplash cover. All the surfaces of this kitchen machine are easy to clean, and it sports convenient cord storage and suction feet that add stability. A handy instruction booklet, beating and stirring whisks, a spatula, and the exclusive stainless-steel Bread Master dough hook are included (other attachments are available separately), and all accessories are dishwasher-safe. Adding to the cool multifunctional nature of this machine is the included blender that fits onto the same motor and has a 6-cup capacity and an unbreakable stainless-steel jug. When using the blender, the unit is 13-3/4 inches tall. A.J. Rathbun
