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.

This mixer would absolutely up my bread game. I appreciate the ability to make large recipes without flour going everywhere! And by having such a sleek design it would definitely fit out front and center on my counter. This baby is a bread baker’s dream!
I would love to use it to mash potatoes but mostly to make bread. I own the Never buy bread again cookbook and would certainly use the mixer a lot!
I want to make my own breads so that I know what ingredients are, and more importantly are NOT, in the products that I am making for myself and my family.
I like to do multiple batches of anything – one and done, instead of over and over.
This big mixer would make triple batches of cookie dough (when my mixer won’t quite do a
double batch). Blending up cooked squash for the freezer all at once, or large batches of
mashed potatoes! It sounds like a big time saver – and an energy saver 😉
Thank you for the opportunity to enter.
My goal of learning to make sourdough bread this winter would be made so much easier! And…my Cuisinart food processor that I received shortly after my marriage (44 years in August) finally pooped out. Thanks for the chance Laurie!
I’m 80% disabled and this would make my life so much easier please
I would like to win this for my daughter. I am elderly and live with her, son-in-law, and 3 grandchildren. She does a lot of “from scratch” cooking to keep us all healthier and the Bosch mixer would be such a help to her.
I would use this to feed the cookie monster I live with and I have never had a stand mixer at all. I could really use one.
I am highly gluten intolerant and cannot eat store bought bread goods. After much research, I found if we buy organic whole wheat berries and grind them ourselves, I can use that wheat for sour dough and make my own baked goods, then I don’t get the reaction to the gluten. it has something to do with how most commercial flour is stripped and processed. This stand mixer would make preparing my dough so much easier. Since it has so many optional attachments, I could even use it to mill the wheat berries. There’s even an ice cream maker attachment! This beauty wouldn’t get any rest in my kitchen.
I just watched a video where two batches of bread went into the mixer and I was like wow – need that! Ha ha. Thanks for fixing the link Laurie! Love your content.
I would use it to make cookies for holidays, bread ( I love my rye bread) and I think it would be awesome to make sausage!
I have recently got my feet wet into baking and am currently looking for a good mixer, so – very timely. And – Bosch is a good brand.
I have a family member that has a Bosch Universal mixer and it makes me a little jealous every time I see it in use knowing that I do not have one. It is an awesome machine that would come in very useful when I make bread and in baking.
I need a strong mixer and this one sounds right!
I would use the mixer as a partner in making bulk batches of healthy dog treats. A fundraiser for my local animal shelter . Also for making baked goods for my women’s club fundraisers.
I’d love it for Christmas bread baking. My recipe makes 4 loaves and I don’t have a mixer big enough to help with the kneading.
This is an amazing giveaway!
OMG! What a fantastic prize! I just started some sourdough starter a couple of days ago. I could use the mixer for all sorts of things! I have been saving dozens of recipes to try! Thank you, Laurie!!!
I would probably do one of two things – learn how to bake gluten free bread or sourdough bread at home or give it to my teacher daughter that enjoys baking bread. It’s a lot nicer than the “bread machine” I gave her and will likely last a LOT longer.
I love baking in very large batches to share with others and my current mixer struggles to handle that without overheating. This mixer is one I’ve heard about for a while and would be a tremendous blessing to add to my busy kitchen arsenal!
