Looking for the Bosch Mixer at Costco? ~ The best deal since 2015!

Looking for a Bosch Mixer through Costco?  I saw it back in 2015, but didn’t have the funds to purchase it.  I regretted it for YEARS, and I haven’t seen it since.  However, you can still save on the Bosch Universal Mixer — and love it with my mixer tips!  You can even save on the Bosch Universal Mixer with the Food processor!

Bosch Universal Mixer at Costco

Yes, Costco is probably my favorite store.  And, in 2015 they did carry the Bosch Universal Mixer with the slicer/shredder (I think — it could have been the food processor).  My husband was in graduate school and there was just no way we could splurge on it (even though my Kitchenaid was already dying).

Since then, our funds increased, but it never came back.  In fact, I’m pretty sure the Bosch isn’t coming back to Costco {silent tear}

BUT, I have an even better deal.  And I can say that I love my Bosch mixer (which I didn’t buy at Costco)…

Bosch Mixer Sale

The Bosch was like $389 at Costco when it was there, but it it came with very limited attachments  — I believe the deal I can offer you at this link is even better — check it out!

I have a whole post where I compare the Bosch Universal to the Kitchenaid Stand Mixer.  There are a few ways that I prefer the Kitchenaid — especially if you have a very small kitchen, so you might want to check that post out.

I also have posts where I share my best cookie tips and my best bread making tips to use your stand mixer to it’s fullest!

If you still find that price hard to stomach, you might want to check ut the Nutrimill Artiste.  I compare the Nutrimill Artiste it to the Bosch Universal and Kitchenaid in that post.

Mixers at Costco

Costco most often carries the Kitchenaid — which is a fine mixer.  I used mine for many years in a very small kitchen (read more about then Kitchenaid Vs Bosch).

Sometimes I have seen a Sunbeam or another mixer there — but, if you are a serious baker — I would recommend either the Kitchenaid or the Bosch.

I have not seen the Bosch at Costco in MANY years, and as far as I hear — they aren’t going to be carrying it again.

Do the Bosch Cookie Paddles Break?

**SIDENOTE: When you use some sensible caution, this won’t happen (it hasn’t happened to me) — but some people have the question…. so, let’s talk about it.

If you put ice cold butter in any mixer it is going to stress the motor.

In the Kitchenaid, it can just stir it around doing basically nothing.

In the Bosch, because of how the cookie paddles mix where they go up and down throughout the bowl, it can’t avoid hitting that cold, hard butter.

And when it does, it can strain the motor.  So, rather than break that precious (and expensive) motor, it breaks the paddle.

The teeth on the paddles and whisks is meant to be the breaking point to protect the motor, transmission, and drive shaft

Tips to not let your cookie paddles break:

1.  Soften your butter.  If I forget to get it out ahead of time (aka, I never remember to do that), I will pop it in the microwave for a few seconds til’ it’s good.  If you chop your butter into small enough cubes, it will likely still work.

2.  If you are using a lot of texture in your cookies, switch to the dough hook as it’s not going to break with oats and chocolate chips, where your cookie paddles might be stressed out.

Bosch does have a 30-day no questions asked return policy on the cookie paddles, so be sure to try them out when you get your mixer to make sure you have the hang of it.

What type of attachments does the Bosch Mixer have?

Kitchenaid always touts how many cool attachments they have.

But, because you’re always dealing with the poorly constructed Ktichanaid Motor, you will hurt your mixer as you use them.

But, when you have a workhorse like the Bosch, you can use attachments like crazy (btw, I list all the current attachments in my original Bosch vs Kitchenaid post).

So far, my favorite ones are:

• The Ice Cream Maker — the Bosch plows through the creamy mixer and turns it SO well!  WAY, WAY better than our super expensive Cuisineart one!
• The Blender — This isn’t a blender that will blend through 40 pounds of Kale. {eww}  But, because I don’t do a ton of kale in my smoothies, I can just grab the jar, throw it on the bosch and whip something up.  I love that the motor is already on the counter, so it’s easier to use. Same thing for the food processor.  It’s just there, so it’s WAY eaiser than dragging out some other motor that’s stuck behind my Instant Pot — sound familiar?
