Nowt wrong with it at all, but I've known about the Bamix ones since I
worked in a hotel back in the 70's for a summer. It was great to use

only in professional kitchens, but when the market was opened up to hom=

cooks, they became better known outside the trade. Take a look:

They cost about =A385 here in the UK, and are well worth it.

My Braun one, the old type 4-166 with variable speed and additional
basket whisk is large and heavy by comparison, and the motor is not as
good. It has served me very well over the years, and if I didn't know
about, and had never used the Bamix, I'd be looking for a direct
replacement. As I do and have, I'm looking at putting the Bamix on the=

Christmas wish list. It's smaller, lighter, and works better,
especially on larger quantities.


Thanks Kate. Never heard of the Bamix before. It looks like they only=20
have two speeds though?? (unless I missed something, which I'm prone=20
to do ;-) )

Plus they all say something like " ~ 10'000 to 17'000 rpm (depending=20
on type)" Not sure that I'd be comfy buying something like that.
