Should have bought one of these years ago, saves so much time

I have bought this Magimix (very smart in black) as a wedding present for my nephew and his fiancee. There's been a Magimix in our family since they were first imported from France in (we think) the 1970s, and that one is still working! I have this model permanently on my kitchen worktop and use it for something almost every day. With its various size bowls and blades it fulfils the jobs of a score of separate kitchen machines, and with some planning can be used for preparing large numbers of menu items with minimal washing up! Grating cheese, slicing potatoes, pureeing soup, for example, all done in seconds. Should you be sensible enough to buy one of these, my guess is you'll wonder how you ever managed without it, and will never want to be without it again! Five stars every day.

This has made my cooking so much quicker and easier. I have mobility issues with my hands so had been struggling to chop things and other cheaper food processors just hadn’t been able to help. But this is so quick and quiet and handles anything I throw at it.

The Magimix is not a cheap option, but it is worth every penny, it is quite, easy to use, and looks amazing. The guarantee for the motor is thirty years, and you can purchase additional parts if required. I made mayonnaise and coleslaw - the mixing of the mayonnaise is so simple, the shredding action of the blades is fast, quite and virtually mess free. If you are thinking about which model, I would recommend going for the 4200XL or above, as you get three bowls, which makes for an easier life. As someone who makes most things from scratch its a delight, I am currently learning to cook Vegan and Vegetarian food, and would particular recommend the machine for pastry and pizza dough. Excellent.
