My sister has one and Looooves it! She has had it for about 20 years and it keeps on running, thru 4 kids, baking for this and that and cooking for everyone and farm hands.

Do they still make them?
I have one that will be 25-30 years old, combo of mixer, blender, food processor, chopper, etc..

It's like an army tank ... almost indestructable!

Yes they still make them. There is a bosch store down the street from me. I have had mine for at least 20 years and we use it all the time. Still runs perfectly. Should it quit. I will replace it ASAP.

That is what I'm reading about them. The prices are so high, that is why I was wondering if anyone was ready to part with their mixer.

I can only imagine the price now ... it was quite costly when I got mine.
What is the current price range?

Yes, I own one of these awesome mixers. I purchased one for my niece when she married as well. I make loads of bread, etc. and it is definitely the workhorse of mixers. Well worth the investment. They are less expensive now then when I purchased mine and the same workhorse quality. Bosch.com will get you lots of information (smile). Happy hunting; you won't be sorry.

this is who i went thru when i got mine about 6 years ago. it never stops working and is absolutely fantastic. i put it to a test with one egg white in that great big bowl and it whipped it and peaked it perfectly. i know they are kind of spendy but definitely worth it and pleasant hill grain has some awesome things!!

The model now is Bosch Universal Plus and starts at $399.00 without blender, and goes up in price on different sites.

Mine is probably about 30 years old. I can easily mix 6 loaves of bread at one time (12+ cups of flour). The new models are smaller and I think have an even stronger motor. It's an incredible machine, a very worthwhile investment.
