Morphy Richards MixStar Compact Stand Mixer, Dual Rotating Beaters, Whisks & Dough Hooks, Built in Storage, Easy Clean, Dishwasher Safe, Open Top Design, Grey, 400520

I bought this item on sale a few weeks ago, to make bread dough. I've made a couple of loaves with differing hydration and both have turned out great. The mixer couldn't be simpler to use, with a timer that counts up to 10 minutes (after which time, if it's been running continuously, you'll need to stop and let it cool down for 20 minutes or so) and a dial for speed and that's it. It feels solid and well made and the attachments are neatly stored in a caddy that sits in the bowl when not in use, which I really appreciate because I can't lose track of them or get frustrated with them taking up space in drawers. The suction power is enough to ensure the mixer doesn't move about while in use. Unlike other reviews, I don't find it super noisy. I'm happy with my purchase and hope it stands up to the test of time.

Little in size but great in use. It is sturdy but not too heavy to move when needed. A unique design that allows easy use in a confined area of worktop.

I bought this stand mixer a I’ve been looking for one for some time and it was on a good offer. I’ve previously owned a Kitchen Aid heavy duty mixer, which was both fiddly and a bit large for my kitchen. This seemed to fit the bill for one that’s up to all home kitchen tasks, compact and easy to clean. It arrived on time and so far I’m happy with its robustness and versatility. It’s mixed baked, pizza and bread dough and pasta dough with no problem. It is far easier to clean than I’d expected and stores everything within itself, which really helps. I do have to agree, this is not a quiet machine, which is why I’ve taken it down from 5 to 4 stars.

Great at first; then slowly but surely the silver coating on the dough mixer starts flaking off and ends up in your mix! Gone in the bin!

Love this. Bought on impulse. No regrets its great.

Arrived in it’s original packaging which I liked. Eco friendly choice. I bought this mixer specifically for mixing dough and cakes. Definitely powerful enough for all kinds of dough. Have used this for focaccia, granary, multi-seeded and pizza dough with no issues at all. Muffins, sponge cakes and also a very fruity Christmas cake were also easy to prepare. There are quick guide cards to suggest which mixer heads and which setting to best use. These are super handy and small enough to store inside the mixer. I specifically ordered this mixer as it ranked highly as a compact mixer. I don’t have a great deal of worktop space and this easily fits in a kitchen cupboard. All the accessories fit inside the mixing bowl so it’s perfect if you’re short on space. I love the timer function, super handy for dough and the speed options. It is definitely not the quietest at higher speeds but it’s also not a big problem because let’s be honest it’s doubtful you’ll be mixing for really long periods of time. The suction pads keep the mixer in place for long periods of time but they are also easy to release when cleaning and storing the mixer. Highly recommended for the price and functionality.

Bigger than I thought but nevertheless, takes up 3/4 of a shelf rather than the 1 1/2 shelves my previous one did. Yes, a little noisy but nothing to complain about in the great scheme of things. I made the lemon drizzle cake from the recipe book..delicious..then went on to experiment: shortcrust pastry, crumble topping, Yorkshire pud batter..all successful and everything into the dishwasher. Easy to put together and easy to take apart and easy to store.. Would buy again, but maybe in a more cheerful colour..! 😊

Bought for making stiff sourdough after my stand mixer kept popping open in defiance. BREAD: it works well for mixing and kneading bread, has a built in time tracker. ISSUE: Incredibly LOUD. FIX: I now have a set of kitchen earplugs, set it on a thick carpeted board stolen from an unused cat tree and wrap a towel around where the bowl meets the base to dampen the noise and close the kitchen door to not terrorise the animals. Sometimes use the “kitchen pillow” (mentioned below) ISSUE: doesn’t work well with small batches FIX: only use for larger quantities (500g flour and more) ISSUE: the rim can get coated with slurry and not incorporated FIX: always add dry before wet ISSUE: the feeding hatch will fall in if you’re not careful replacing it on the lid. FIX: a thick line of coloured food grade silicone around the edge and the handle made it non-slip. ISSUE: the bread paddles are textured so they can be a bit of a pain to clean if not done immediately. FIX: A quick wipe of paddles and top of bowl stem with oil before using ISSUE: dense bread will kick the lid off FIX: I sometimes smother it with a heavy pillow like I’m in its will. WHIPPING: Whips well if enough liquid is used. ISSUE: doesn’t whip smaller amounts FIX: use for larger batches: making sure the beaters are at least 2cm covered. Conclusion: I needed it after an injury so stuck with it despite its banshee screeching (I can’t emphasise this enough). I don’t expect it to last, the paddles are plastic which in itself suggests they will not make it the year, but I figure the beaters etc will make it longer so like my stand mixer, it’ll be retired to large batch cakes and whips eventually.

j'ai reçus l'article hier et j'ai fait monter des oeufs avec du sucre pour une génoise rien à faire ça monte pas et pour monter une crème liquide en chantilly mêle pas en rêve je suis non seulement déçus mais fâché pour 80 euro vraiment . je ne le recommande à personne.

War ein Geschenk

Die Küchenmaschine ist angenehm im Gebrauch und sieht wundervoll aus. Auch der Organizer für die Einzelteile ist durchdacht und ist ein klares Kaufargument. Einziger Nachteil für kleine Haushalte ist die Größe der Rührschüssel. Sie ist für kleine Mengen ungeeignet. Gäbe es das Gerät mit kleinerem Ausmaß würde ich sie sofort kaufen.

Absolutely love this mixer I haven’t used it as yet but as for appearance and size and testing the speed. It is PERFECT. Thank you so much fast shipping. Highly recommend this mixer. They are rare to find value for money compact but super size bowl LOVE IT

Ich kann erst bewerten wenn ich einen Adapter habe diese Information fehlt in der Beschreibung es wäre nützlich gewesen
