I am excited!! First contact with a kitchen machine. I would describe it as relatively quiet for its kind, incredible quality, all moving parts are metallic (3 main components and the drum). The protective cover on top is transparent plastic and is included, they can be put in the dishwasher, it has LED lighting so you can see the drum, seven programs, a timer so you can choose the time. It is completely stable as it has suction cups underneath to stabilize it on the kitchen counter and the drum locks into its base, so it doesn't move. As a first contact, I made a cake.. amazing texture. I am excited, I repeat, I bought it for around 200€ and I believe it's worth every euro. I will come back when I use it for dough, etc. to have an opinion on capacity, doughs, etc. For now, if I could, I would give it 6 stars.
