Love it! So far so good. Smoothies, coleslaw and pancakes made perfectly. The plastic is a bit flimsy but will be very careful with it. Good little machine.

My review is based on what I really wanted to use this for:Blender - 1.5L size would have been ideal (for a family of four) which was the size of our old smoothie maker. This one is 1L.I believe a larger jug comes with the much more expensive model, but really at this price they could have provided a slightly bigger jug so a star off for that.Bowl - no problems with cutting and grating etc. I really wanted a food processor to make pizza dough and pastry, because this is compact I had to make two doughs for 4 people as I didn't want to risk overfilling or breaking the bowl. Not a big deal, just threw the ingredients in a second time and it did the job quickly. The dough turned out great and I'm sure pastry won't be a problem based on this.Grinder - ground medium roast coffee beans for the first time for our espresso stove pot. A nice fine powder after 2/3 minutes grinding, tasted rich plus a delicious smell of coffee in the kitchen!So overall very happy with the product and can recommend it.

Nice, sharp, blends easy. Lots of parts/accessories. Bit expensive but worth it I'd say

Good value-for-money for a powerful food processor. It is easy to use and to clean, and it comes with more assessories than one would usually need.It has been very good and efficient so far for some heavy-duty tasks. I bought it mostly for making my own nut butter, which is, indeed, a quite demanding task for a food processor. With its 800W, the Bosch MultiTalent 3 performs very well in such a hard task - I recently made a batch of 800g of cashew-nuts butter and the food processor ran nicely through more tan 20 minutes with no complaints and, most importantly, no overheating, which used to happen every time I made nuts butter on an old and less powerful food processor.

The food processor is compact and fits well in my kitchen.I use it for making cakes and pastry.It is well designed and easy to clean.

We bought it 89£ and I think it is difficult to beat this food processor at that price. It is really good quality and easy to use and clean. We haven't tried it yet for dough & baking though. The small downsides I can see and the reason I give only 4 stars :- There are only 2 sizes of grating : fine and coarse, and a medium one is definitely missing for us. However we've been able to fix this by ordering an extra Disc ref. 650965 which includes a Medium grating size (Actually Bosch is not very clear on that one because they show it in the documentation coming with the MCM3501MGB but it is not included..and not listed on their website neither. Also they were of no help at all to resolve or issue..)- The Blender is in plastic, which makes it less durable than a glass one- The lid of the Blender is quite difficult to operate, especially is you have small hands- The blender function cannot be compared to what you will have with even the most basic stand alone Blender. Your smoothies will be difficult to mix and obtain that creamy textureI still recommend to buy it if the Blender function is not so important for you

One has to say that I like this food processor as it is made by a quality experienced German company at their factory in Slovenia. Once opened and washed it is then ready to use.The food bowl, blender and universal cutter are easy to fit to the power unit. All blades and discs slip into place with ease. Using the bowl I have shredded carrot and cheddar cheese for a salad.Using the slicing disc I have sliced carrot then cooked. In the bowl added a drained can of butter beans and cumin, three eggs to make the filling for a carrot and cumin quiche.The bowl and cutter blade I have used to make oil free crunchy peanut butter a tuff 5-10 minutes on full speed.The blender I use daily to make protein Smoothies using frozen fruit.I have not used the universal cutter as it is surplus to my requirements at the moment.Overall this is a well powered unit that is tougher than it feels. It does have a lot of nooks and crannies especially the bowl which need attention when hand cleaning (think about an extra minute), however the time saved using a processor far outweighs the cleaning time.
