Bosch MFW 68660: Review

 

Start with the packaging. The box in which the meat grinder is delivered is quite compact but very heavy. All components of the electric meat grinder are well packed and ergonomically arranged inside the box. We immediately noticed that the manufacturer is China. We carefully examined the unit and spare attachments for defects.

 

 

Nothing was found, except for a sticker on the bottom of the case that is unevenly placed. It is worth noting that all metal parts of the attachments have a special marking (cast in factory conditions). We do not know the purpose of this, but we noticed that it is present only on Bosch equipment.

 

 

Testing began with rotating and installing all removable components of the electric meat grinder. We looked for play and mismatches in each spare part. During testing of all elements, only 3 shortcomings were found:

 

• The power cord is too short and the plug is inconvenient to insert into the storage niche.
• When the “reverse” button is pressed, the metal tray is pushed up and may fall onto the table.
• If “reverse” is activated during the main motor operation, there is no protective locking mechanism – the motor immediately tries to rotate in the opposite direction. This causes an unpleasant smell from the motor.

 

 

 

All other impressions are only positive. The Bosch MFW 68660 electric meat grinder grinds everything in its path, regardless of hardness and size. It is best to initially cut the raw material into strips so that it easily slides down to the rotating shaft.

 

 

 

Please note, if meat is flat, it is better to remove the grid and clean the knife after each processed kilogram. Otherwise, the meat grinder’s performance will significantly decrease.

 

 
 

Electric Meat Grinder Bosch MFW 68660 – The Best Purchase for Home

 

As store employees say, if a kitchen appliance with a rotating mechanism has metal instead of plastic, then the device is reliable. And if it bears the label of a top brand Bosch, then it is also durable and long-lasting. And you can’t argue with that. The Bosch MFW 68660 electric meat grinder is indeed excellent for household and professional needs. It is powerful, functional, and affordable.

 

 

Regarding noise levels. Many buyers note in their reviews that the meat grinder is quite noisy during operation. This is a fact. It emits about 70 decibels at peak. Slightly louder than a coffee grinder, but not close to a perforator. Considering that the meat grinder processes 4 kilograms of products per minute, there is no need to complain about noise. After all, productivity is the main concern. Moreover, silent meat grinders are only available with manual drive.
