Tefal Easy Soup and Smoothie Maker, 1.2 L Jug, 5 Programs, Smooth/Chunky Soup, Smoothie, Compote, Auto-Clean, 1000W, Digital Control, Stainless Steel, BL841141

After getting a suggestion from one of my friends, I started eating more vegetables and salad as a starter. To change the taste, I found that I could eat vegetable soup instead. This was a great improvement for my healthy diet, but cooking soup from scratch takes a lot of time. One of my relatives told me about a soup maker and how easy it is to make soup with it. So after a few days of research, I found this Tefal model on offer and bought it. This soup maker makes my life so easy and it cooks all types of soup. I mostly make vegetable soup. Sometimes I add chicken pieces in with the vegetables, but I always make sure to use boneless and cooked chicken pieces to stay safe. I am very happy with it. It even has a smoothie maker option, so that you can use it for cold shakes too. My favourite function is the easy cleaning. It does not clean it completely, but it does the hard work for me. I do a quick final clean myself. I would definitely recommend this product. My soup hasn't burnt once, and that is a miracle.

I have wanted this item for ages, and finally decided to purchase it, once it was on sale. It is very straight forward to use. It did take a few goes to get the flavour of the soup just right, but once I got the hang of it, the time and effort I am saving is immesurable. I am literally flinging ingredients into the soup maker and pressing start. It is a joy to use. For anyone wondering how to make soup delicious, you need lots of seasonings. In a pinch, a good stock cube, dried herbs, salt, pepper, lemon juice, olive oil are the extra ingredients needed for a decent, quick soup. If you have more time, roasting your vegetables, or browning garlic and onion BEFORE sticking it into the soup maker, makes such a difference, but 9 times out of 10 I am just whacking it all in and letting the Tefal Soup Maker do the job. Yesterdays leftover garlic potatoes or chicken thrown in, makes all the difference too. I am really pleased with both the smoothie function, and the puree function. I have always wanted to be able to make my own apple sauce (which keeps in the fridge for a week, if in an airtight container) and now I can do all of this with one gadget. The only function I am not impressed with, is the "chunky" option (or soup with pieces), as this literally just heats the ingredients up. I thought there would have been a light blending function at the end, so it resembles a soup, but although the items get cooked and soft, the end result is more like a stew. Although, in the Tefal soup makers defence, there is a blend function at your finger tips. As long as you let it blend for one cycle, and pull the plug out 1/3 of the way through, it comes out perfectly. The cleaning function is pretty good, although you will need to wipe down with a cloth in some areas, which is not the end of the world. Some maintenance is required, as with all machinery, and it's very easy to do. The water does spill over the top sometimes, when the cleaning function is running, so my tip is to fill the water under the minimum line (only for cleaning though!) and it reduces this issue. For anyone talking about the machine short-circuiting the electrics in the house - make sure you do not have this plugged into an extension chord! I had this issue with a different make and model (which I returned, not Tefal) and these machines can do this when plugged into an extension chord, or when plugged into a socket that is used by a large appliance. Try to keep the plug socket free from other devices, and this should resolve this issue. I have bought toastie makers, waffle makers, rice cookers, air fryers, but this soup maker is the only one I am consistently using on the regular. So happy with my purchase. I hope it lasts for a long time.

This item does what it is intended for, it makes delicious soup. I have tried about 10 different recipes so far and all have been really tasty. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is that the cleaning mechanism doesn't get the jug or the mixer completely clean so they still need a good wipe off. I have found that it is just easier (and quieter) to wash it by hand; it has been quick and easy so far, as I haven't experienced burning food on the bottom as other reviewers have. Would highly recommend this item.

I absolutely love this 🌟 I have a smoothie every day and I've made some really nice soups Easy to use and really easy to clean; it does this itself 😁 highly recommend

Hands down one of the best purchases ive ever done it was saying wouldnt arrive til january 2nd came before christmas so was able to enjoy over christmas period its so easy to use and clean and is a real life saver for a busy household

Ideal soup maker

A French friend (an accomplished cook) has had one for years and she swears by it. I've made soup the traditional way for years and resisted buying a machine to do the job, but it was on offer on Amazon recently so I took the plunge. Where it particularly scores for me (with a small kitchen) is: 1-pot solution - load, switch on and leave it Easy to clean up afterwards Automated programmes (basic eg smooth, with lumps, compote) I like my soups both smooth and with lumps. The latter is easy to make in a large pan of course, but this soup maker scores for me when making smooth soups because I don't have to mess about with my food processor or stick blender. It just cooks and blends automatically, and the soup stays warm if you're not quite ready (in addition to the Keep Warm function). Recommended. The user guide has some quite good recipes, but it's worth investing in a recipe book too - I bought this one because it's the one my friend uses but there are no doubt some good English-language ones available too: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/2035973864?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

Ayrıca çorbaya konulabilecek şey sayısı sınırlı, çünkü kolayca dibi tutuyor ve bozuluyor. Lezzeti de gerçekten çok kötü. Açıkçası memnun kalmadım. İşten yorgun gelince yaparım diye almıştım ama dondurulmuş çorbayı mikrodalgada ısıtmak daha iyi fikir. Tavsiye etmiyorum

super soupe onctueuse - facile à nettoyer

I love this but it's dangerous if you don't know thd lid doesn't lick. So if someone just picked up thefy could get burned. As for making soup perfect.

Funziona molto bene e si possono fare anche risotti e minestre di qualsiasi tipo. Molto utile la funzione cleaning, rapida é efficace.

Das Gerät an sich hat gut ausgesehen, da es einen Netzstecker auf UK hatte konnte ich es jedoch nicht benutzen. Schade den auch das Austauschgerät von Amazon war mit einem Netzstecker aus UK geliefert. Schade das es anscheinend keine Original Deutsche Ware von diesem Suppenbereiter gibt.
