I Might Buy A Soup Maker!

I said once, l would never buy a soup maker as l use my pressure cooker or a saucepan to make soup.
Today, l feel a bit tempted and l wonder if anyone could advise me and recommend the best one to buy?
Thank You!

I did see them at a County fair and they looked really good (sorry can't remember the make).

Re: I Might Buy A Soup Maker!

Art I've been trialling a soup maker for a company, had it for three months they are picking it and my report up later this week. My opinion on them is if you haven't time to stay with your soup as you make it and blend then they are great, something in the first thread I hadn't thought of was there is also less washing up.

The one I was given to try is a phillips so I have only experience of this one brand. It makes very nice soup, as good as anything I can produce with a saucepan and blender, it makes less washing up as it's just the blender bit needs washing. It doesn't make a very big quantity, if I'm making for all four of us I have to do it in two makes and it needs washing between uses, also by time second lot is ready first lot is cold so you either need to reheat in a pan or microwave. Instantly adds to washing up.

Would I buy one ? No but if I was alone or just two of us and didn't have time to cook traditionally I might be tempted.

I think it's just a whim and a fancy for me at the moment! It was the Morphy Richards soup maker that l was looking at but l have no idea what the difference is between the different models.

Thank you! Swimmy.

The Morphy Richards model 50100 that is a soup maker and a soya/almond milk maker too is £47. 98 in Costco. Yet in Argos the same model is £89. 99!
I'm still pondering!
