I have it for almost 10 years!! The thing is that the machine hasn't had any issues and I use it almost every day. Day after day, I knead bread with kneading times of 24 minutes sometimes, 12 minutes on low speed and 12 on medium. In between, I also make sweets, cakes, meringues, and anything else you can imagine (family of 4 members). Comfort, I don't even think about it. It goes in the dishwasher. The only thing I bought additionally for the machine in these years was a stainless steel hook because the kneading hook it came with lost its color and during kneading, it peeled off the color into the dough, so I threw it away. Otherwise, it's top-notch.
