To all those watching this forum and thinking of buying !!
« on: January 14, 2013, 02:10:09 pm »
Just do it !
I have been reading everything I could on the web, as well as reading everything here on this forum and, I have to admit if I am completely honest, that I was still thinking that maybe the TM was just too expensive and that maybe I'd be disappointed with my purchase.
I WAS SO WRONG. I have had my TM for only 4 days now and it has exceeded all my expectations by a mile. I have made lots of things so far - poor hubby is almost being force-fed - and apart from a slightly heavy bread dough (which was almost certainly my fault) everything has turned out brilliantly. Today I have made the Rich Shortcrust Pastry and then the Quiche Lorraine (both from Fast and Easy Cooking) the Quiche was so tasty and really light and the Rich Shortcrust Pastry.... well....... I always thought my pastry was very good (sorry to blow my own trumpet) but this is just magnificent. Without a doubt and with no exaggerating,it is the best pastry I have ever made. Superbly light and crumbly, but, at the same time, very easy to roll out.
I'm sorry to go on like this, but if I knew then what I know now, the TM would have been in my kitchen long ago. So, if you're just thinking about it, just do it. You will not be sorry.

That is so good to know, Faffa 70. Your words speak volumes.
 With results like the ones I am getting (and I think I was a reasonable cook before I bought my new baby) my confidence in this wonder machine is going up and up. I hope I'm not speaking too prematurely - I'm bound to have disasters - but, so far, so absolutely brilliant.

I have had mine for over 3 years, and still love it.
just wish they were advertised more, I would have had it earlier.

so with 2 thermo things, I can cook more than we need. :)

My advice, just buy one.
My Thermomix,  Kitchen Aid, Pizza oven, Nu Wave 5 in 1, Spatulas, all brings love, laughter, happiness, and great food  to my kitchen.

Welcome to the cult past94x ;)
I have had mine for 7 months and can't believe I waited 18 months. It really is so worth it for so many reasons. We are very lucky to have our thermo thingys :D
