bumping this cos I've convinced myself I have to have one. DH is not convinced, especially given he's the cook in the house and he suspects I just want one to have one and then it will gather dust.
I'm so lazy in the kitchen and what I like about the idea is apparently it's really easy to clean. I'm also trying to get rid of preservatives and additives and have a chemical free lifestyle. I'd like a rice cooker, bread maker, juicer, all of which I could get for less than $2K total. Though I threw away my last juicer cos it was a nuisance to get clean.
Can anyone else add information? I understand it won't replace a slow cooker, but will help with preperation? Though I don't find a casserole in the slow cooker takes much prep. And I do porridge in the microwave.
What's the volume anyway?
Tashybabe: I'd recommend having a demo or going to one. They have a 2ltr jug, very easy to clean. You can put water in them and switch them onto turbo and it basically cleans itself and just needs a rinse. They are the perfect appliance for lazy cooks I make porridge in the thermomix it takes 10 minutes and self stirs (I grate a lot of fruit into it first too). I had a juicer that I never used because it was a pain to clean and I did have a food processor which I used, but not as much as the thermomix. I'd use it about 4-5 times a day! They are amazing and I make so much from scratch so I know exactly what is in everything!
Drag your DH to a demo (I had one at my house) and he will love it too. Mine originally said no till he saw it in action.
Well you know my opinion! Point out to him how much his coffee machine is worth and that that only makes coffee!! I'm bringing mine to Melbourne in January so you can borrow it for a couple of days if you want and both have a play with it. But yes, have a demo, I reckon your mum would love one too. I asked my consutaltant if she knew anyone good to get a demo from over there but she didn't. Just book one thru the website.
