About this product
The Bosch Universal Mixer UM3 is a stand mixer base that also functions as a food processor and blender when attachments are used. It features 2 speeds and 3 settings, powered by an 800W motor. The 6.5-quart capacity is generous, and the white finish suits most kitchens. This model is tested and includes the base motor and blender components.
Our take
I found this Bosch UM3 at a great price for a used unit, and it's been a solid addition. The 800W motor has enough oomph for dough and heavy mixtures, and the 6.5-quart bowl is huge. As a food processor, it works well with the included blender, but note that it's the base only—you'll need additional attachments to get full food processor functions. The 2-speed control is simple but limiting; there's no pulse function. It's bulky and noisy, but build quality feels robust. For $63, it's a good deal if you're okay with older tech and need a powerful mixer/processor base.
