REDMOND RKM-4035 - an affordable assistant in the kitchen

Consider the technical features of the Redmond 4035 kitchen machine and compare it with the main competitors in the price category up to 10,000 rubles, the closest of which was the popular development of the German brand Bomann.Also, the hero of our review is often compared with the budget Bosch and Moulinex combines, but here the differences are a little more noticeable.

When comparing the most important technical indicators and functions, it becomes obvious that the Redmond 4035 has the most in common with its closest neighbor, the Bomann kitchen machine. Both models have the highest power, which allows them to do their job many times faster and more efficiently than other analogues. They also have in common the number of nozzles and speeds, the presence of a pulse mode, which is used at the end of cooking for a short-term acceleration of the standard mode, and overload protection. But at the same time, Redmond 4035 is much more compact and much cheaper.In addition, this model is equipped with a smooth speed control and goes well with a full-fledged vegetable cutter, blender and even a meat grinder, which distinguishes it favorably from both Bomann and Bosch and Moulinex, which do not have such a variety of add-ons. At the same time, the bowl of this kitchen machine is not made of plastic, like the last two analogues, but of high-quality stainless steel, which makes it very reliable and durable.

However, in some aspects Redmond RKM-4035 is still inferior to its competitors. First of all, it is the heaviest of the kitchen appliances presented in our review, the weight of which even exceeds the weight of the larger Bomann model. In the development of Bosch, a powerful kitchen machine, like others, loses in the number of nozzles, and at the same time it costs a little more.

Thus, in most cases, a Redmond kitchen machine will be an optimal and fairly versatile solution. In terms of power, price and features, this is definitely one of the leaders. However, the competition is also very good and can be an ideal device for preparing a festive dinner for a large family, or, conversely, a great mobile option for one or two people.

Although interior decoration is not among the primary tasks of a kitchen machine, this factor often becomes one of the decisive ones for many housewives. Suitable dimensions and organic design make cooking very convenient and allow you not to hide the device in a far corner, as soon as you finish working with it. At the same time, the device should match the style of the kitchen, but not be conspicuous, but fit into the environment.

Redmond 4035 fully meets all these requirements.The classic, not too flashy design is aesthetically pleasing and at the same time harmonizes perfectly with any environment. At the same time, the device takes up a relatively small space on the working surface, and the build quality and the absence of gaps and irregularities that are periodically found in state employees are confirmed by customer reviews.

The Redmond RKM-4035 kitchen machine is sold in a cardboard box in a standard parallelepiped shape with colorful images of the appliance itself, its attachments and dishes that can be cooked with them. Also on the packaging it is easy to find basic information about the technical capabilities and additional properties of the model.

Inside, the buyer will find a securely packed device with nozzles and accompanying documentation. However, it is important to note that although the kitchen machine of this popular brand is positioned by the manufacturer as a “4 in 1” device, in fact, three of the four items are accessories that perfectly match the appliance and can be purchased separately. So what does the buyer actually get?

Each box of Redmond Rkm-4035 contains:

• actual kitchen machine;
• stainless steel bowl with a convenient transparent lid;
• three of the most useful and popular mixer attachments;
• service book;
• a collection of recipes;
• instruction.

Thus, in general, such a complete set can be called quite good for a state employee. However, other accessories, if necessary, will have to be purchased additionally.

The planetary mixer is the heart of the Redmond 4035 kitchen machine, the main component that allows you to bring any liquid, soft and chopped products to the desired condition.It owes its efficiency not only to a successful design, moving both around its axis and around the circumference of the entire bowl, but also a set of the most popular interchangeable nozzles, which please with a high level of performance.

The whisk nozzle is known, perhaps, to all skilled housewives. Indeed, without it, it is impossible even to beat eggs or cream. Also, the nozzle is vital for preparing desserts with a light airy mousse and delicate cream, as well as various sauces. The edges of the whisk are made of stainless steel, which makes the nozzle quite durable and resistant to moisture and other factors. The plastic sleeve to which they are attached is equipped with a special shield that prevents liquid, crumbs and flour from entering the retainer.

The flat beater for slightly thicker products is designed for thick cream, chocolate icing and even light biscuit text. It is made from a single piece of metal, like the third replacement component, and is highly durable.

A hook for thick yeast dough, or rather its shape, sets Redmond Rkm-4035 apart from many others. Its design allows it to effectively capture lumps of dough for more efficient mixing.

The Redmond Rkm-4035 kitchen machine, according to reviews and instructions, is very easy to use and does not require large-scale preparations for the first start. However, there are a few basic steps that are highly recommended before you start using the instrument.

First of all, the manufacturer advises to thoroughly wash all parts of the kitchen machine that will come into contact with food, and also gently wipe the motor unit with a cloth dampened with water. The use of chemicals is not recommended.After all parts have dried naturally at room temperature, Redmond 4035 can be assembled following the attached instructions and turned on. Some authors of reviews and reviews advise to make a test batch during the first operation, since in some cases during the very first session, the device, like most analogues, may emit a slight smell of grease.

Thanks to the high-quality assembly and durable materials that are not prone to breakage, the hero of this review is quite reliable. In addition, the development is equipped with effective protection of the electric motor of the combine against overload and overheating. It stops the operation of the device if it warms up above the set temperature, as well as in other cases that can lead to breakage. This is one of the safest kitchen machines.

Nevertheless, it will not be superfluous to remember the basic precautions. In particular, it is necessary to limit the time of continuous use to 15 minutes. Between inclusions, it is advisable to take breaks for about half an hour. However, this will not cause any particular inconvenience. The most powerful kitchen machine in the budget category works at an incredible speed, so you can do a lot in 15 minutes. It is also important to remember that only the bowl can be washed in the dishwasher. Other parts of the device, including the housing itself, can only be washed by hand and only with water.

Working with Redmond 4035 is no more difficult than preparing for it. All control of the kitchen machine comes down to setting the desired speed, as well as changing it and adding a pulse mode when necessary.All this can be adjusted with a slight turn of the mechanical regulator, thanks to which any user can manage this kitchen machine, regardless of the experience of using small household appliances and various electronics.

As you can see in the photo, each speed is assigned a serial number. They are arranged clockwise in ascending order. The move is step by step. All you have to do to get started is to move the control from the idle mode "Off" to the selected speed. Redmond RKM-4035 allows you to change the speed in the same way during operation. The model features a very smooth switching between modes, so you can not be afraid of jerks and jumps even with a cardinal change in speed, for example, from first to sixth. The rotary knob is also marked with a "P" for "pulse mode". For short-term acceleration to the maximum, it is enough to switch the regulator to this mode for a few seconds, and then return it to its previous position.

This kitchen machine has another intuitive control element. The button, located just above and to the left of the speed control, raises the mixer head when pressed. You can return it to the original application and fix it only by pressing and holding this button.

It is easy to make a basic kitchen machine with a mixer more multifunctional by purchasing additional components or accessories for it, as Redmond calls them. After all, although they are not provided to the buyer as a free application, these items are designed specifically to work with the Redmond RKM-4035, which makes them ideally suited to this particular model both technically and in style. At the same time, these accessories are quite affordable.Their cost ranges from 1000 to 1400 rubles. Therefore, the purchase of one or two of them will not prevent the device from remaining one of the most budgetary.

As accessories to expand the capabilities of the kitchen machine, the manufacturer offers the following additions:

• blender;
• meat grinder;
• vegetable cutter.

Moreover, each accessory, except for the blender, is not just a single nozzle, but a complete set of several elements. For example, a vegetable cutter includes three graters of different sizes, as well as a shredder and a pusher. The meat grinder, in addition to the standard meat grinder attachment, is equipped with perforated discs for processing meat into minced meat, as well as attachments for sausages and kebbe, a pusher, and a loading tray. All this makes the Redmond 4035 model, improved with the help of accessories, the most versatile and functional kitchen appliance.

Reviews on this product are not yet as numerous as on some well-known analogues, since this Redmond development was released quite recently, but still they are quite enough for an objective assessment of the device. Among the main advantages of the kitchen machine, most satisfied customers point to excellent work with dough for charlotte and other pastries, stability, ease of use and adding ingredients during the cooking process. Also, according to reviews, the model shows excellent results and develops a very good speed when preparing mashed potatoes, marshmallows and bread dough. Buyers who have added a meat grinder to the basic device also note the efficiency and uniformity of the resulting product, primarily minced meat.

However, it was not without its downsides. The hero of the review, like other developments in the budget category, does not differ in completely silent work.In addition, from time to time, buyers come across defective whisks, the plastic part of which is unreliable. Therefore, when choosing a particular device, it is recommended to carefully examine the whisk for slack. The rest of the nozzles are completely made of metal and are really durable.

In general, Redmond 4035 can be called a very good option for your budget. The kitchen machine has a number of advantages, including a solid body, stylish design, decent functionality. Also, the hero of the review is very easy to use and maintain, which means that no additional knowledge and skills will be needed to use it, even not the most technically savvy person can handle it.

Thus, the main advantages of the kitchen machine are the following features:

• nice design, suitable for any interior;
• best power;
• additional settings;
• intuitive control;
• sustainability and security;
• adequate price;
• upgrade possibility.

But it was not without drawbacks:
