Kambrook Soup Maker 2 simly no longer works – I purchased my Kambrook Soup Maker in June 2018. It's worked so well until today when there was a loud grinding noice as it went into blend mode. That noice is due to residue from metal breaking up in the base of the blender which connects to the blades. File below shows the residue I found in the blender base. There is also some apparent metal… Read more

shavings iniside the sealed compartment of the blender jug. Trying to report the issue so they could consider a recall on current and older models is near on impossible. Kambrook email directs you to Breville. I eventually found my email case on the Breville site after I set up a free account, which was opened and closed by Breville at the same time. It's such a shame their Customer service for Kambrook appears to be non-existant. Last Breville product I will buy.

Earnt permanent bench space – This machine is so good, it has earned a permanent spot on my bench! I love that from scratch, dinner for 3 is ready in 30 minutes (and that's a real 30 minutes, not like on TV where they have already prepped everything in advance). Although it can be a bit noisy, it is a predictable noise that albeit repetitive, is not continuous, so I don't… Read more

mind. Easy to clean, easy to use, and very forgiving (I just chuck stuff in and add water at hock - no need to measure!) Still used every day, almost 10 years later! Only looking to replace soonish due to slight rust wear from when I forgot about it on the bench.

Perfect soup and great while it worked – First one lasted only for a few soups, replacement has now also stopped working. Made really nice soups when it worked and was easy to clean.

Broke after using less than 5 times. Don’t buy!!! – Brought this from the good guys in 2019. Have only used it 4-5 times and now won’t turn on. It’s practically brand new!!! So disappointed!!! It’s out of warranty because I didn’t use it much. Show details

Cumbersome and not up to the job – I have had several soup makers in the past which were fine. I purchased this Kambrook Soup 2 Simple about 18 months ago but haven't enjoyed using it from the start. The plastic lid is hard to close and doesn't fit well and I need to jiggle it for a while to get it to sit properly on the base. It has just shorted everything in the house. It's going in the bin! Show details

Kambrook Soup 2 Simple – Great sooup maker but do not last long. Have had 4 of them and all have lasted less than a year. Just returned the one I bought in August 2019. Good Guys don't keep them any more so I got my money back and will look for another brand. Show details

Can’t fault it! – I’d never had a soup maker before. I got tired of the mess and inconvenience of using the saucepan and then transferring to and from the blender. I had to do this in batches as my blender couldn’t cope. I saw the Kambrook Soup 2 Simple and thought surely this must be easier. Well..it certainly was! My soup is cooked and smoothed to… Read more

perfection. I do start my onions off in a pan first as I prefer to do this, but most ingredients are just thrown in and the device switched to the desired setting. The noise level is no greater than my previous blender, in fact my cat was mesmerised every time it started to blend! The jug component has a wide opening allowing easy removal of the finished product, but be aware that this is metal it does get hot to the touch during the cooking process. It’s quick and very easy to clean. What a great product at a great price and with a 2 year warranty. If it’s as well built as the Kambrook steamer we bought 7 years ago, and is still going strong, then I’ll be very happy.

Fell in love with this soup maker – This makes amazing soups and I have made many versions of soup and some following recipes and some through trails of left over veges in my refridgarator. It's has three major modes to make the soups and it has good vacuum legs so that the soup maker doesn't move at all while churning the ingredients. I have used this very often and found it easy… Read more

to maintain and used to clean the jar straight away. very useful for the long winter months and rain days when u have those funny hungry cravings .you can make very healthy creamy soups without using cream as churning is so perfect it makes the flavours standout so well.hughly recommend in getting one

Easy and Dependable describes the Kambrook Soup2Simple! – I just love my soup and made it for years in a big pot and blended with a stick mixer. But then Soup Makers changed everything. I have endured the excellent results but shockingly poor quality of the TV advertised one and its replacements (2) under warranty, then the leaky seal of the Tefal Soup and Co. ( see comment in Q&A) below, nevertheless I… Read more ·  3

was sold on the easy to use concept and kept researching for my next.

I settled on replacing with this latest model from Kambrook because of its 2-year warranty. But this has far surpassed my expectations. No, it has no "countdown", "reheat" or "keep warm" or "Steam with an Insert Basket" functions...But it cooks my vegetable etc soup perfectly every time, stays hot waiting to be served, and remains hot for a "seconds" serve.

The wider based SS jug is easy to clean around the blades and can be soaked in hot water a few mins if not done straight away. Forgotten ingredients eg extra flavourings can be added through a separate mini lid after the program has been set. So far nothing has burnt, or frothed out. It has min/max load safety switches and can be used for cold smoothies. Until summer/Dec it was used 5x /week, with perfect results and no hiccups. Now the cool weather has approached I am easing back into it. It is so simple, I didn't even need to get out the instruction booklet. Maybe its only drawback is its volume for a larger family or gathering. It is fine for 3 large serves.

Oh and the previous review mentioned noise? Yes its noisy, it is a blender. The thing is you press and "forget"... until at about 10 mins it does its first blend..but you soon get to learn to predict and be prepared for it after repeated use. It is not unusually noisy compared to the electric blenders/processors and mixers that I've used. But dont have your back to it initially as it certainly can startle you!!!

Noisiest unit imaginable – Bought this model and it does make excellent soup but ......... when it starts up the kids, dog, cat and the birds all flee the house due the incredible noise! Similar to a cement mixer or chain saw you don’t even want to be near it while it mashes up the ingredients! The end result is first class but suggest you use the garage to be out of hearing range! How could anybody build something as noisy as this?  Show details
