Choosing a small grating combine

[Miranda]

Miranda, I have questions about Kenwood 100 VA.
I installed a set for rubbing on the base of the combine: the bowl stood exactly with the contour of the base, then the gray adapter, all the protrusions coincided, then the grater and the lid. The lid snapped into place, but it sits somehow loosely, to open (remove) I need to press the upper lever without effort. The fixation is very weak. I don’t understand what I did wrong or it should be so (or marriage?).
I tried to grate cheese and carrots, but it didn't work.
How hard should you press on them with a special device for filing? I didn’t try to suppress very hard, I don’t rub it anyway.
Most likely I have build errors, but I don't see them. I think I'm doing everything right.
Maybe you can tell me something. Thank you.

[infuriates and strains]

Girls, yesterday I took out my Philips 1388. I wanted a salad.
Rubbed, washed ...
Remembered all of him pros and cons. And I decided to write to you from fresh memory.
Whoever does not have it and is going to buy let him know some components.
So ... Here's a photo. Has washed, dries so many parts need to be washed.
Not for long. But still...

Then I remembered WHAT I was in it infuriates and strains very straight - this is a pusher - it is double. They wanted to make us comfortable, but they failed. It’s uncomfortable for me to push, because it separates and crawls in my hand. This time.
Further, between the pusher and the throat itself have gaps and pieces of vegetables fall into them - sometimes it is impossible to pull out the pusher !!! They get stuck and hold him firmly. I pull straight with effort and shavings scatters around the table. I write everything in hot pursuit. Wicked ...
This is what the pusher looks like. It has some kind of curbs on 4 sides. AND there pieces fall.

This is what the pusher looks like


Further. Rubbing Not all, there are flat pieces (but many graters sin this).
I just eat them!


Here is a report.
Maybe someone will push to purchase or vice versa will stop.
See for yourself!

My main complaints are to pusher.
(I often take the pusher from the combine Redmond and use it!)
... I decided to get it again - I will rarely... When there are a lot of vegetables!
I'm waiting for my Leben. Then I will unsubscribe about the impressions.
My salad! Celery, carrot, apple, daikon + olive oil!

[Maria_A]

Maria_A, do not really understand. It didn't work out - you mean it didn't turn on?
If it does not turn on, then look at the bowl, it should snap onto the base with a slight click. It was so with my mother, she didn’t insert the cup. The protruding part shows that it does not match on the bowl and the motor. In a brand new harvester, at first it is a little tight to put the bowl down to the end.

The lid closes easily, press lightly with your fingers.
The switch on the cover can be either pulled aside and held, or snapped and not held. But the harvester is not for long work, I rarely click.

This is what the pusher looks like

How interesting! And I have a completely different pusher: single made of opaque white plastic, and immediately inserted into the Phillips neck

Miranda, thanks.
The bowl is in place, that's okay. The lever for turning on (horizontal) works, there are no questions with it.
The combine turned on. I rubbed a little cheese, then I had to press on it (cheese) with a pusher, but I was afraid. I was not sure that it was necessary. I still doubted the correctness of the assembly, I was afraid to break and spoil.

And now I will slightly turn the outlet sleeve with a hole counterclockwise (the combine is assembled for rubbing), the lid rotates, that is, it is not clamped or secured firmly. It is not even necessary to press the vertical clamping levers.Is this the way it should be?

[mamusi]

I'm waiting for my Leben

Oh, but I won't write everything in any way - my Aresa has come! I'm happy! Just don’t know how! He is so playful - for the first time he shoved a huge carrot - exactly 1 second! I didn't even have time to blink! Just a super machine, small, put it on the table next to Shtebka - just one to one in color !!! And next to them is a small coffee maker of exactly the same color - how it happened! But not about that - and I tried the chopper with onions - just shine! In general, I advise, girls, little quickie - now I will not drag Filka 1388, I hope.

My main complaints against the pusher

mamusi, Ritul, and my pusher is fine, nothing gets stuck, but the pieces - yes, they remain, but quite a bit - I give them to the dogs. You should also try cabbage on a small one. I think that the baby has a lot of pluses, and 2 minuses - the hole is narrow, Narrower than in Filka, and while you have to insert the bowl with force - otherwise it will not turn on. But then the girls wrote that this is the case with the new one, let's see ...

Ritul, and I'm fine with the pusher, nothing gets stuck

Olga, and you have a pusher double, like mine? Or whole (I read that there are some)!

Oh, but I won't write everything in any way - my Aresa has come! I'm happy!

Congratulations!
Olya, where did you order it? On ozone?

[Biryusa]

Biryusa, Olga, that's what I dream about. But I got double shit.
I get it from Redmond, but it's not perfect. A little already he. But even that is better than native.

[mamusi]

mamusi, Ritul, I understand that the very first Phillips came with a single pusher. And then, as they began to improve everything ... Well, in general, they wanted the best, but it turned out, as always. The usual thing.
I'll tell you a secret that I will receive my Aresca today too. I had a lot of points in Ozone, so I decided to realize them for a new toy

get my Aresca

Well, glorious, Ol!
Then tell me how and what! When you have a toy, you want to cook something. "Play around"
I hope I will eat raw salads more often.

I still doubted the correctness of the assembly

If the assembly is wrong, the machine will not turn on. And if it does, then the assembly is correct. The lid closes very easily with a slight movement of your fingers. It is just as easy to open. But for me it does not rotate after closing.

I don't understand what you mean by a little rubbed. And then what? Has it stopped or what? Wet vegetables or soft cheese can stick to the exit throat and collect there, but the chafing continues, and then at some point it all falls out at once.

[mamusi]

mamusi, yes, Rita, exactly the same as yours! I never noticed that something was stuck there.

Olya, where did you order it? On ozone?

Biryusa, Olya, aha, there. Cool device, I am very pleased! (Pah-pah-pah!) So we did the right thing that we took it!

[kind]

I never noticed that something was stuck there

And I always have! The pieces somehow fall into the gap between the "two pushers" and directly brake, jam the pusher. Do not take out! If you pull it, the shavings fly to the sides!
May depend on kind selected grater? I just thought. I most often just rub on a coarse grater ... I don't remember how on cubes and julienne.
... But it would be better if they made a solid pusher, like Olya Biryusa

[mamusi]

mamusi, Rit, and I'm on a coarse grater! And what about "between two pushers"? I grab the outer pusher with my hand - that's it! I don't touch the inner one, and he sits there quietly, for the sake of heaviness, I think ...

like this "between two pushers"

Well, that's not it, not so I said ... right now, focus ...
Olya, the pieces fall under the outer pusher itself - in those gaps where the "cross" on the transparent plastic goes along the entire height of the pusher.
I wrote ...
But be that as it may. It hits and interferes, with the next pulling out of the pusher, a piece of carrot always shoots me in the face!
And flies across the table ...
Surprised what is wrong with you.
Doesn't it get stuck at all?

Ahhh, is it just about these pieces that remain? They just lie on the disc, under the pusher ... Well, sometimes it happens that I pull out the pusher with difficulty, yes, but in this case I just unscrew the top cover a little - and everything is perfectly removed, and nothing flies in the face!

I unscrew the top cover a little

Have you adapted?
I'll try again next time.
Better yet, I'll replace it with a pusher from Redmond.

are these pieces that remain? They just lie on the disk, under the pusher ... Well, sometimes it happens

That's why with Redmond whole pusher, these pieces do not interfere and do not get stuck !?
Solid is better for me.

[mamusi]

mamusi, Rit, what if you just stuff the inside? Or will it be too narrow? I'll try next time.

the next time the pusher is pulled out, a piece of carrot always shoots me in the face!

This is yes! The solution is easy and simple: you need to remove the pusher, after stopping the shredder. Yes, it will take a little longer in time, but it will not be necessary to collect pieces of vegetables throughout the kitchen.

it is necessary to remove the pusher, having previously stopped the shredder.

Olya, I always stop! I can't even imagine how it could be otherwise.
That's why I wrote that I like "Pulse" more ...
And second: with the Redmond solid pusher, nothing flies or gets stuck.
Anyway. I shouldn’t have touched on this topic, apparently.
Fotala, laid out ... for something. Nobody asked me. Everyone will figure it out themselves.
It is interesting that the same devices in different hands behave differently.
And we all react differently to the "shoals" of these devices.
Hence the conclusion: our long sheets in Personal Experience Posts don't help anyone. And only "clog the air"! Everyone feels their own way!))))
I will be wiser in the future.

[mamusi]

Hence the conclusion: our long sheets in the Posts about personal experience do not help anyone. And only "clog the air"!

mamusicertainly help!

Hence the conclusion: our long sheets in the Posts about personal experience do not help anyone. And only "clog the air"! Everyone feels their own way!))))

You shouldn't think so. Reading about someone's personal experience is very useful, especially for those who are going to buy something. This Philips now costs not 2.5 thousand, but 2-3 times more, and it seems to me it would not be superfluous to find out about its weaknesses.
And the fact that my Phillips pieces fly less is only because I rarely use them

[Miranda]

Miranda, rubbed a little, and then it was necessary to press the cheese to the grater with an effort with a pusher. And I didn't push hard. That is, the grater simply did not grab the product.



In my other food processor with a 2-liter bowl, the top lid snaps into place quite tightly. And somehow I had no problems with chafing.

At least, now I am sure that I have assembled and folded all the attachments correctly and can be rubbed.
Thank you so much.

a little rubbed, and then it was necessary to press the cheese to the grater with an effort with a pusher. And I didn't push hard. That is, the grater simply did not grab the product.

I can push hard with a pusher only if I incorrectly estimated the size of the product and it entered well at first, and then became wider / thicker and stuck. A couple of times I removed the lid and barely pushed it out of the loading throat, trying from both sides. If it is a hard type of beet, then it simply does not go further, and it is easy to push it out from the back side. And if the cheese is stuck, which is softer and at first pushed a little, but this made it stuck even stronger.

If the size is correct, then only slightly press down. I didn’t grate over hard cheeses, I didn’t grate anything frozen either. Perhaps the hardest were beets / carrots. I press down a little and rub quite easily.

Girls, I often meet small combines, whose power is written at 180 W. What do you think, is not weak for raw carrots, beetroots and onions? And then something dumb to take such.

[svetta]

svetta, Svetik, on the contrary, honestly write! Kitchen Artisan has 350, Bamiks has my 220.So 180 is the best for a baby

[Miranda]

Miranda, Thank you.
The pieces were correct in size and did not get stuck in the feed hole. Russian cheese is young, that is, not hard. Well, a carrot. I will gather my courage and try again.



Thank you, girls, to everyone who talks about their practical experience. This makes it much easier to learn something new. Your knowledge and experience, which you share with all your heart, is very necessary and important for all of us.

Kitchen Artisan has 350, Bamiks has my 220

Kitchen and Bamix are names after all.
And in some newborn non-name, Chinese kilowatts may well not coincide with ours.

I have a completely different pusher: a single one made of opaque white plastic, and immediately inserted into the Phillips neck

and this is an old model of a pusher, now they do not produce 1388 with such pushers

This is what the pusher looks like. It has some kind of curbs on 4 sides

these are new composite pushers, so that it is convenient not only a bunch of carrots, but also a lonely carrot to rub ... "in business").

flat pieces remain

I rub them, like all unshredded pieces, rubbing them, holding the product in the neck with my back, scooping a tablespoon of stainless steel neatly dipped obliquely into the neck so that the working disk would spin the food under the spoon in the direction "from the handle of the spoon to the edge of the scoop." The remainder of the previous product is pushed back by the next product.
Important! You can not rest with a spoon on the shredding disc (danger of injury), that is, the tip of the spoon rests against the bottom of the loading hole (in the photo this place is shown with a yellow line, the direction of movement of the disc is shown with green arrows) without touching the blades of the discs and tines:

And you should try to put the products over the entire width of the neck, with more or less equal height of the bundle, something like this:

but not so (here, it is logical, to put the length gauge along the perimeter and in the center along the length of the length gauge "get the diameter" in a trifle adding it "in a column in height"):

this also minimizes the amount of undershoot residues ...
I hope I described it clearly ...

[mamusi]

mamusi, Rita About the pusher from Fili-1388, you correctly noticed, some kind of double, and I have the same one. Maybe later releases of Philips began to be equipped with normal pushers? I bought mine 3-4 years ago. Of course, he shreds and rubs well and quickly, but then it is so dreary and long to wash all the parts and details! So I rarely get it.

I, too, have a composite pusher at 1388 nervous. It is impossible to make friends with him, although in all other respects the machine is super. But since others succeed, I will adapt. So thank you girls for your opinions and experiences - both positive and negative can be very useful.

I have an electroterochks Moulinex 150 watts that does an excellent job with raw carrots.

Bamix 160 watts and a 300-watt kitchen chopper are completely different things, they are just little animals

Very much the soul has sunk to KENWOOD FDM 100 BA. There is Boshik, but he is big. And you need daily functions - rub one carrot for soup, or half an onion. But the main thing is to knead 1 bowl of grandmother's soup in mashed potatoes (few teeth). Now I'm making it submersible, but how I wanted this cache) but the price bites very much. Maybe someone saw something like that? The main advantage is the small volume and small space on the table. Or maybe someone will attack the discounts on it. Share then pliz. I really want it. Thanks to Miranda for the review.

Well fse, defki, I've read a lot of you here, listened a lot, chose, chose and did it! Today I received a Filipka 7605, bought it at OLH in excellent condition, a complete set and inexpensively. I have already tried a grater on 1 carrot - class! And very well it became on my desktop, otherwise I have only a few square centimeters of free space.Well, I cook on orders and often it is just a small amount of something to rub and cut, but there are several of these different small volumes per day, it is inconvenient and cumbersome to drive BOSCH. And I have already made friends with this toy, I feel that our lyuboff is for a long time.

By the way, I wanted to buy a small compact combine harvester German Schtaiger shg725 for 180 W, I even asked here. I read that Leben is generally 120 and rubs normally, but here it is as much as 180. But it's good that I rummaged in the internet and found a girl who had this harvester and sold it, talked to her on the phone. She used it for 2 years to feed her baby, she was happy with baby food. But he is rather weak for vegetables, these are her words. I was a little upset because the price was delicious and I liked the harvester. But then this Filka turned up for an inexpensive price and I grabbed!

[svetta]

svetta, a good choice, if needed, you can buy graters and there will be a set for all occasions (except for cubes)

Congratulations! I also respect this harvester ...
Tell us what graters did you get?

if needed, you can buy graters and there will be a set for all occasions (except for cubes)

Marina, what exactly can you buy? Now I have 3 of them: slices, potato pancakes, an ordinary grater.

Sveta, new graters are expensive, about 400 UAH for one.
My favorite now is Julien.
But if rubbing the onion on a regular grater suits you, then you can not rush.
You can buy this julienne and thinner slices.

[Miranda]

Miranda, in my Kenwood there was still a defect in the adapter, so I didn't rub it, there was no clutch with the motor shaft, because the edges in the adapter seemed to be worn out (when and by whom, since I never rubbed anything) ...
We bought this harvester in the Kenwood branded online store in Belarus, there was no replacement. A new adapter was ordered for us. I hope they will. The harvester itself is excellent.

[Zeamays]

Zeamays, Sveta, I'll try onions on all my own, except for pancakes. And then I'll think about it and find it on the OLH)))

[svetta]

svetta, you can still chop an onion like a chopper with knives on the pulse (whack-whack)

[svetta]

svetta, you can still chop an onion like a chopper with knives on the pulse (whack-whack)

Marina, never dealt with the pulse. What is this mode and what is it doing?

[svetta]

svetta,
from 00:03:32 see under the spoiler in
I am choosing a small grating combine # 374
The "Pulse" mode works only when the handle is forcibly held in this position (in contrast to the "I" mode, which is fixed and works without forced holding the handle in this position), which makes it easy to control the degree of grinding of the ingredients in the bowl, stopping the knives in time.

it is also convenient to use it to mix the next ingredient into the dough.

there was no clutch with the motor shaft ...
We bought this harvester in the Kenwood branded online store in Belarus

It's good that it turned out. Was it a marriage? If the package was intact, all sorts of pieces of paper on strings, then the new one.

It looks completely new, on the lid of the shredder there was a leaf on a string, it seemed. Included during the check, of course, that's all.



This is most likely a marriage. Thank you Miranda for your help and support.



It is packed perfectly, as you have in the review of the combine. So your detailed photos and descriptions were very helpful.

[svetta]

svetta, Sveta, congratulations! Finally you have found yourself a good helper who will facilitate your voluminous cooking in the kitchen!
Zeamays, Svetlana, expensive very additional graters for Filia are on sale! Very9 surprised!
That week I bought a julienne grater for my Braun Patisser for 108 UAH. True, it was found the cheapest, in a single copy. But so graters on Brown, the most expensive, up to 150 UAH. But for the old, or the simplest series of models, and 80 UAH each.
I now have almost all the graters in stock. No grater of thin slices and noodles. And fries have not met on my model. But I think I can do without them. Fries I really like to cut on Prima. Thin slices, I think, if it really is necessary, also on the Example, rubbed, but I read that it was very subtle, the slicing was already glowing.I don't really need one like that. On my own grater, I sliced ​​potato chips to check and threw them into Prinzeca, normal chips. I'll manage it for now, and then I'll see.
But I don’t know to order noodles or not. I think more! I tasted slicing on borscht on a julienne grater. Everything is great, very fast. I thought it would be shallow, but no! Slicing beets, root celery, carrots looks great in borscht. But the onion has dissolved. It's an ambush with a bow. What's on the knives on the pulse, what's on a coarse grater, what's on julienne - onions give juice everywhere. And such an onion is not suitable for all cooking! So my little onion grater will still take the most honorable place, at hand, in the locker!

[for what]

It's an ambush with a bow. What's on the knives on the pulse, what's on a coarse grater, what's on julienne - onions give juice everywhere. And such an onion is not suitable for all cooking!

I completely agree! I need a onion for sautéing in a small cube no more than 4-5 mm, this is obtained only with a knife. Sometimes I chop a 7.5 with a burner, but it's too big. And all these grinders give onion porridge, it is bad for sautéing (well, for my needs).

Girls, for my Filipka there is a fine grater in nature, I copy the photo from the OLH
this grater is the second from the left

I have a medium grater second on the right, I rubbed carrots on it yesterday and as for me, it is small. And this missing one will be even smaller. Maybe I just don't know or have never dealt with such a fine grater, but explain to me that you can rub and for what... Suddenly I really need it.
And buy it for 50 UAH. no problem.
And the question is, are there interchangeable graters of the same type for different models? They look the same, but suddenly they do not fit, how do you know?
In a large BOSCH combine, although they write that the disk is suitable for such-and-such model, I already see that if the landing nest matches my Bosch, then 102% will do. And in Philips in different models, how?

I need a onion for sautéing in a small cube no more than 4-5 mm, this is obtained only with a knife.

and an alligator

I don’t have an alligator and I don’t plan.
