ℹ️ Our practical test has the highest relevance and therefore weighting. Here, the product has to undergo a wide range of criteria and tests. We check the functions and product promises of the test article.

*The maximum score is 100 points
The compatibility of the gliding board with the Thermomix TM5 or TM6 has been confirmed and is unrestricted. The specially developed indentations adapt perfectly to the appliance feet and ensure that the Thermomix stands securely and firmly, even when kneading heavy doughs. This is an important advantage for anyone who wants to ensure the full performance of their Thermomix for different applications.
With regard to cleaning, it has been shown that the gliding board has a water-repellent seal . However, the base is not suitable for the dishwasher. Instead, it can be easily cleaned with a damp cloth and a little soap if necessary. This simple cleaning method contributes to the care and longevity of the gliding board.
The use of high-quality woods, especially FSC-certified premium woods, in combination with a durable hard wax finish confirms the high material quality of the gliding board. This quality feature not only contributes to the robustness of the product, but also to sustainability and durability, an important requirement for modern household products.
The non-slip properties of the gliding board are remarkable. The four rubber feet ensure that the Thermomix stands securely and prevents it from slipping, even during intensive use or kneading processes. The rubber feet also act as vibration dampers and protect the sensitive scales of the appliance from possible vibrations.
The design of the gliding board is elegant, simple and extremely functional. With the option of choosing between different types of wood(oak or beech), users can select a design to suit their individual kitchen. This is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also emphasises the versatility of the product.
Overall, our practical test confirms that the PEARWAY Thermomix gliding board fulfils the manufacturer’s advertising promises . From the excellent compatibility and stability to the high-quality materials, easy handling and appealing design, the gliding board fulfils expectations and offers a valuable addition to the Thermomix TM5 and TM6 in the kitchen.
