  Thermomix TM31

Don't rush into it, but it's well worth it! – It took me a few years from first hearing about the Thermomix to finally taking the plunge and buying one. I took that long to research, ask around, and understand what I really

needed in the kitchen. Because of this, I think I've made sure that the Thermomix would not be wasted. I use it countless times on weekends from quick pancakes for breakfast to complete meals at dinnertime. The non-baker in me also managed a birthday cake for my son not too long ago!

The Thermomix takes some learning with controls, quantities, and times...especially if you don't follow recipes strictly like me. However, once you've learned it, it can REALLY speed things up in the kitchen for you.

So...make it a well-considered purchase. At the end of the day, it's just another tool in the kitchen!

Emptying the Thermomix bowl with the included spatula can be difficult, so I purchased a better silicone one.

Easy to Use, Cleans Well, Great Price...All Around Good Value – I purchased the stainless steel DW60CCX1 and I love the simple look of it despite the features is has. I also got it for a good price from Appliances Online, so it was even

better value!

It's easy to use, does the job well, and looks great in the kitchen. So, I'd highly recommended it overall.

Stay Away! – Delivery takes forever, which is mentioned in their terms. However, communication is simply non-existent. I filled out their contact form three time in an attempt to get any

kind of update on my order three weeks after placing the order. No one replied.

I have now filled out their useless contact form a fourth time asking for a full refund, and there has still been no response.

Beware of this company.

Excellent – I've had this credit card for five years and can't complain at all. I use it mostly for overseas travel almost as a cash card since I load it up before we go -- saves me heaps on

foreign ATM fees, etc. Having no annual fee, it's been perfect for our needs.

We use our rewards card from another company as our day-to-day card, so it's unfortunate that this doesn't come with any type of rewards program. Nonetheless, I'd highly recommend this card! No annual fee; no fees for international transactions; 55 days interest-free. No rewards.

Good – I claimed this from credit card rewards, so I'm happy I didn't have to pay for it. It's terribly overpriced for what it is. However, I do value (very highly!) that it is safe

to use around young kids since I have a toddler at home. I never have to worry that he'll stick his fingers somewhere that'll hurt him.

The airflow is average. We don't turn it up to the max setting since it can get quite noisy. Lightweight (easy to relocate); simple design (easy to clean); NO BLADES (safe around kids) Definitely overpriced
