Wow, Congrats ThermieLove!
You'll recoupe the outlay in no time! My hubby bought me a Thermi 6 mo ago - 1 month before bubba no.3 came into the world and since then (despite having a new baby) we have eaten home every night and not once gotten takeaway! BT (Before Thermomix), we averaged $35 on takeaway Indian once/wk, EVERY week. So far we've saved over $800! Weekly savings wasn't a factor when we bought, so has come as a welcome surprise! So glad you decided to go for the real deal, I spent 6 months looking at all the competition & apart from the HotMix Pro which costs more for S/S version, TM31 is the only one which doesn't lose it's settings when you stop to either weigh mid cooking or take the lid off. It's also got the best setup with integrated scales IMO. And it doesn't make a mess of pasta, etc when on reverse.
Well done on going for the best! I'm sooo excited for you! You'll LOVE IT!
