Third-party reviews

What customers like about Bosch MSM87140

  • Powerful 750-watt motor that processes ingredients quickly
  • High-quality brushed stainless steel casing and blending foot
  • Versatile speed control with 12 variable speed settings plus a Turbo function
  • QuattroBlade Pro 4-blade design ensures smooth and uniform blending
  • Ergonomic handle with a non-slip SoftTouch surface for a comfortable grip
  • Patented click connection system makes it easy to attach and detach accessories
  • Includes a high-quality, extra-large universal chopper for nuts and herbs

What customers don't like about Bosch MSM87140

  • The interior of the blending wand can be difficult to fully clean out
  • The unit is relatively heavy compared to lightweight plastic competitors
  • Can be quite loud when operating at maximum speed or Turbo mode
  • The motor housing can become warm or overheat during prolonged heavy blending tasks
  • Does not include a traditional balloon whisk attachment in this specific configuration

Verdict

The Bosch MSM87140 MaxoMixx is a high-performance immersion blender equipped with a powerful 750-watt motor, a premium brushed stainless steel housing, and an ergonomic SoftTouch handle. It features 12 variable speed settings plus a Turbo function, a patented click-connection mechanism for quick accessory swapping, and a specialized 4-blade QuattroBlade Pro foot designed with anti-splash technology. Main advantages include its exceptional blending efficiency on tough ingredients, sturdy professional-grade build quality, dishwasher-safe components, and an extra-large universal chopper accessory. On the downside, the chopper unit can be tedious to hand-wash due to small crevices that accumulate food particles, and the premium metal assembly makes the unit heavier than entry-level plastic models.
