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.

We would love using the Bosch, especially since all that we make: breads, pasta, deserts, etc. we do so by hand.
I don’t cook much, but I love to bake. I remember the smell in Mom’s kitchen when I was a youngster and the chocolate cookies were to “die for” – so moist and melt in your mouth delicious. I also make a pretty mean “fresh apple cake” and recently found some of my mom’s old recipes and would love to resurrect some and have my children and grand children enjoy something from the past.
I would love the Bosch universal mixer to make more bread. I’m finally looking back and trying to lead a simpler, more meaningful life of caring for my family as my mom did. My family loves when I make homemade bread and I’m venturing into pasta making. This would be a fantastic help.
Use this mixer to make gluten free bread and other baking dishes. I’m new to bread making and to receive this great Bosch product, would be an honor.
As we all feel the crunch of increased prices on everything, this would help someone on their baking adventures!
This is so exciting to think about.
love to win to make some homemade bread.
Right now, I get by with the KitchenAid stand mixer I inherited from my grandma. It’s been reliable so far, being a slightly older unit that was built to last, but I know that it’s still probably got limited life at this point. With the cost of a new mixer being out of the budget, and with our family (and our baking needs!) growing, having a new high-quality mixer would be a real blessing. I would use it for everything from sourdough bread, to pizza dough, to bagels, to English muffins, to cookies. Basically everything we bake!
With prices high and some ingredients suspect, making food from scratch is the way to go. Using a Bosch mixer would be a big help in accomplishing this with ease.
So many things, from bread to cookies to whatever, would be easier with a powerful mixer.
A stand mixer like this would be so beneficial to me. I have a shoulder injury and it makes mixing ingredients really difficult. I’ve always loved baking and wish to bake more healthy foods to avoid store boughten items.
I would love to give this mixer a whirl in my kitchen! I love to bake and cook so I’m sure it would be an awesome product to have at hand.
Thank You for sharing so much! I would love to have a mixer to do the work that pains my body. 🙂
With a good mixer I would hope to be able to make bread better and would look forward to experimenting with it to make bread products. It would help with cakes/bars/pie crust/cookies and anything else. It has been a long time since I have had a new mixer.
I would like to enter the contest for the Bosch Universal Stand Mixer. As you described, making more than one loaf of bread is a pain – my stand mixer just doesn’t hold that much, and mixing dough by hand is something I gave up years ago. When I bake for family get togethers, I normally bring 4-6 extra long loaves!
Also, totally unrelated, but I want you to know that even though I get tons of emails – many of which I delete, I always read yours. I’ve never been a homesteader, but was taught to can foods, make jam and a few years ago started making lotion bars, salves and tinctures.
I would use my new mixer if I win with just about everything I can think of!!! It would be so exciting to have such a great product in my kitchen. I love to bake and I do a lot of home cooking so I know this mixer would work great for me!
I am interested in the multiple jobs that this little powerhouse can accomplish.
If I should win this wonderful mixer, I would gladly make bread and treats for the homeless and their children.
I would get back into making sour dough bread for my family!
I would love to make sourdough bread and other bread products but don’t have the strength and ability to do the kneading required. I have watched a woman with a YouTube channel use this mixer and it looks like it works wonderfully.
I would love this fory family with three teenagers! My boys love homemade anything and this would help as they learn how to prepare those treats and breads.
I would love to use this machine for cookie and bread doughs. Just to have to play and experiment would be fun. I currently use a kitchen aide mixer that I have had for years.
