Why We Love the Bosch Universal Plus
- Built to last for decades — strong motor, smart design, and easy cleanup.
- Handles big batches — up to 14 pounds of dough!
- Works beautifully for both everyday cooking and serious home baking.
- Optional attachments let you turn it into a full kitchen workstation (slicer, blender, food processor, etc.).
I’ve used Bosch mixers for years — and they’re a real workhorse for homesteaders, bakers, and busy families alike. I love my Universal Plus because it handles double batches of whole wheat bread with no problems. When I was a young mother and tried using bread machines, I burnt out three of them before I invested in a Bosch. It’s been with us ever since.

I have heard so many posts declaring how wonderful this mixer is. I would love to use it for making bread and holiday baking. My nephew and I make gingerbread cookies for Christmas and it would be lovely to share this with him.
Donna and I are looking to make this Winter a season of baking and the mixer would be a great step forward in our overall quest to become more self sufficient and healthier.
Why I want the mixer—
Retiring at the end of this year. I had gotten a few mixers as wedding gifts — fourty-three years ago- and they have each in turn died. So has the little stand mixer my brother gave me for Christmas decades ago. So I find myself in need of a mixer and with reduced income. My grandkids love my cookies and cakes. I’d love to be able to continue making them.
I want to have a homemade healthy holiday. A new strong efficient mixer will certainly help with bread and cookie dough preparation. And prepare larger batches of our favorite recipes and some from Commonsensehome.com.
I have celiac disease and eat a mostly plant-based diet, so baking has become both a necessity and a comfort for me. My mixers always seem to burn out under the weight of gluten-free doughs, and I’ve been dreaming of something strong enough to keep up with the way I cook for my family. I would use a Universal Plus Mixer to make the specialty breads I can’t buy in stores, to bring back homemade pizza nights, and to finally try the cauliflower dough I’ve been wanting to master.
I just started making my own bread. My youngest son has bm issues and we’ve been making slow changes to a healthier way of eating to try to help. My current mixer is too small for even a single loaf recipe so I have to do it by hand and finding the time is not easy. This would help save time while keeping on track to try to help my son.
Won’t have to buy bakery goods . I could try out making other recipes and an electric mixer would be extremely nice
Hi Common sense Home,
I would love to win this Bosch stand mixer for gluten free breads, which are so temperamental to work with.
Thank you. Rhonda Lutz
I would use the mixer for making baked goods, whipping cream and making bread. T
I would be making bread!
I would like to learn sourdough as well as bake another more
Cooking is not a passion of mine, but I do love holiday baking, since there’s something different about making food to share with others. I used to do a lot of it, but sometimes life gets in the way, and it fell by the wayside. I was just thinking I’d like to get back in the baking groove, and this mixer would be a great incentive.
Greetings
I live with my daughter and her husband and there 3 boys and she is pregnant with a girl. Two of the boys are celiac. I’m still working and don’t have that much time to bake but i usually try to make some gluten free treats for the boys. It also comes in handy to make salves. I love to cook and back even that my time is limited. I would like to win it like the next person but it definitely looks like there are people here who needed more than i do
Would definitely use it to make bread!!
Having this amazing machine in my kitchen- would help me provide more healthy breads, meals and desserts to my many elderly neighbors who need good food, and company to counter the isolation and depression that often plagues our wisdom class. (That’s what I like to call them- they are living libraries of wisdom) Living in a deeply rural area, neighbors matter and its wonderful to become a part of their lived stories. Living in a peristent poverty county, every little thing we can do for another matters!
ooh, it would be great for Thanksgiving rolls. my mixer isn’t quite big enough.
I’ve been baking our own gluten free bread taking and refining a recipe that actually tastes good not gritty or dry! I need a strong mixer and this one sounds right!
I have Laurie’s Never Buy Bread Again book and this mixer sure would help in creating all of the recipes in her book.. My husband would be sooo happy for his daily fresh bread on the table !!
Oh how I would put to use a Bosch mixture! I inherited an old wooden grain mill from my mother about 20 years ago. Have no idea how old it is …maybe 40 or more years old. I have been using it but have thought for years how nice a new one would be. I am now teaching my teenage grandkids how to make bread and rolls.
I love using all kinds of grains in my bread making and love to experiment with them. A new grain mill would be so welcome and used a ton in this household.
Oh, I would be making lots of sourdough bread with it!
