tana77, I don't know how you manage to grate carrots without incident in 2-3 seconds. Honestly, I envy.

I have a similar, but cheaper model - Philips 7605 - creates a number of problems. As soon as the carrots are shortened during the rubbing, they immediately fall to the side. When it falls, we can assume that the rubbing is over, because it is not rubbing anything anymore, it just twirls half the carrot in a circle.
Over time, I got used to it, I learned how to make sure that the carrots do not fall. And what is the bottom line? It's better, there are no long slices, but still there is a round carrot about 8 mm thick, which the combine cannot grate.
tana77
Daffi there was only one carrot, after a failure with french fries, I decided to test it on a carrot, put a coarse grater, put the carrot in the receiver with the tail up, turned on the combine and the result is in the photo above. the piece that remained was no more than 2-3 ml, I tried to press it with a pusher did not work. this is my first try, there will be others I will share

Good day!
I am choosing an assistant, I really hope for "the help of the audience". The choice between Kenwood KMC 56002 (without everything, since the meat grinder, blender and juicers are separate and I do not plan to abandon them) and KitchenAid 5KSM156E (not professional, 300W, 4.8L bowl).
I'm not so hot as a cook, but I'm working on it
Selection criteria and thinking out loud: the unit is needed mainly for making light non-yeast dough (there is a bread maker for these purposes), making sauces, mayonnaise, in a word, you need a good mixer (maybe then your imagination will be enough for something more). From the attachments I plan to buy an ice cream maker (available from both manufacturers) and rolling out for dough. It seems that I don't want anything else yet ...
There is a place to put it, I myself am inclined towards KitchenAid, purely outwardly, it ideally suits me in the interior, but from a technical point of view, my knowledge is not enough ... here your help is needed to understand +/- in terms of functionality.
I would buy both units in Moscow, I will bring the nozzles from Europe.
Thanks a lot in advance for the tips and opinions, from SW. Julia

Good day! Girls, thanks for the info.tana77, and it probably takes a little time to wash and assemble this harvester?

today I tested graters and a knife, I liked the impulse mode - it allows you to control the cutting / shredding, remove and collect very easily, washing did not cause problems plastic is such that nothing does not stick to it very much, and the blender washes itself like that, pour water into it and a drop of detergent, turn it on for 20 seconds and that's it, rinsed it and forgot. for Daffi- today I realized what problem you were talking about when grating carrots, turned on high speed and did not have time to look around as the carrots lay on its side and stopped rubbing, I held the next one by the tail and it turned out without sideways, there were certainly leftovers, but no more than when grating in manual, all the same in the harvester to rub and cut more hide than with your hands and it is easier to wash the harvester than to cut your hands on graters.

tana77, the more I read your messages, the more I tend to Phillips, it remains only to finally decide and buy. He has all the most popular graters, simple to use - what else can you expect from a combine? And the fact that it is more pleasant to rub with a combine is a thousand times right in this. Good luck in mastering the new assistant!

I have nothing to compare "fila" the first combine with, only with manual labor, :) perhaps in this price category there are harvesters and better, the choice is yours - good luck.

Is it possible to make airy mashed potatoes with this combine? If you did, tell us how it worked?
Who uses the BRAUN K700PJSJ combine? Question: Can milkshakes be knocked down well in it? And then the size of the bowls and the not very traditional size of the blender confuse.

Girls, maybe who knows, VITEK VT-1478 Blender (price per share for chips) 1745 rubles, worth taking, reliable? I'll ask here, maybe they won't scold, kitchen scales 1969 for 495 rubles - the question is the same. Thank you!
Falinska
I bought VITEK -1480 in early May. To date, both grinders are broken - a small one for 800 ml. and a large 2.7 liters. Transfer from blender to bowl shaft under load does not work. That is, the bowl reducers have broken. The blender itself works without question, the mashed potato attachment, the whisk are also fine. But what I took it for - a pancake grater and a cube cutter - needs to be repaired. Maybe it's just me that was so unlucky.

Gradually I got rid of all the "Vitka" except for the kitchen scales. I bought the second Bosch harvester at the sale, and I am very happy about it.

Where did you buy it? I am also from Vitebsk, now there are no stores in stock. If only via the Internet, and the Vitka service center is only in Minsk ... it turns out if you buy it in an online store and suddenly something flies, take it to Minsk for repairs at your own expense ... somehow it's not a fountain
Have you renovated it?

Girls! Who has Vitek 1480, write your opinion. I broke all my brains - I think I need this function of a cube cutter or not bother and buy a Philips 7605.

Vitek 1480 often breaks down, and this is a fact you cannot argue with. Many bought it, and now they are very unhappy. So think again and choose something else, not Vityok!

I also decided so. If the center where it would be repaired was in my city, maybe I would have taken it, all the same, it works fine for half of it (but whoever wrote that - used it for about a month, and they break down in a month or two - again according to reviews ) ...
On the other hand, why even take such a risk? The idea is wonderful, yes - but the execution failed.

While I chose Bosch cubes, it seems that everything I need is there
Moreover, the husband yesterday "lost" the purchase must be ordered faster))

In general, when buying any equipment, you need to pay attention to the service centers near the house, which work with this particular brand. This is very convenient when something is slightly damaged or lost. Otherwise, due to a minor breakdown, you will have to change the device. By the way, you can find a common language with the master (s) and find out in advance what to look for when buying equipment and operating it, so as not to break anything out of ignorance or negligence and, in general, will prompt what is better to give up and why
Julia ***
Thanks for the answer! I just can't decide whether to take risks with Vitek, or buy Philips twice as expensive (the price of a blender plus additional grates and a potato maker).
Falinska
Barbusik, I bought it through an online store. VITEK is currently being repaired in two workshops - at Chkalov and Lyudnikov. I haven't taken my own for repairs yet.

Thank you! And I asked about those workshops, they told me that if they did not take it from the online store under warranty. True, they told me this in the service, where I took the multicooker under warranty (Lyudnikova 4). Who knows, maybe if you drive directly to the Vitekovsky service - and you can agree. And in the online store (21st century) they answered that there is no warranty service in Vitebsk, and if they themselves come from Minsk and take it for repair.
In any case, I have already decided not to risk it, I'd rather take a Bosch cube. Somehow there are too many reviews about breakdowns ...
Good luck to you!
AYaromashka
and which stationary blender is better - Brown 2050 Multicwick 5 or Phillips 2095 ??? otherwise I bought this brown yesterday - the seller convinced him - well, like the Czech Republic and Phillips China. And now I doubt something ... they say the motor stinks at the first use, turned it on, really stinks. I have not thrown the products yet - I packed them back into the box. And Phillips also has smooth speed switching ... In short, the seller loaded me up or did Brown buy me right ??? Answer someone !!!!

Girls accidentally stumbled upon OUR Russian harvester Energy, which is manufactured under a Japanese license.

I choose a harvester, blender, processor

there are more powerful and prettier ones, but all functions are the same!

I choose a harvester, blender, processor

10-year warranty, is done in the Queen! He looks, of course, vintage, but plows like a beast - reviews about him are only positive.
Now I regret that I did not know about this unit before, I would have bought it!
Take a closer look at it, maybe on the eve of the harvest, just such a unit is worth buying

I choose a harvester or another similar device: I need dicing, mashed potatoes, a grater, cutting into slices, preferably kneading dough (not necessarily a hook, maybe just a knife?). I chose Bosch Cubix, so I think I made the right choice?
I also wanted french fries, but then I saw crooked cubes and changed my mind about the long ones, so I understood that none of them will work
Thank you!
Tashenka
I am also for help. I am in the throes of choosing a stationary blender. You need a powerful one (at least 600) with a glass glass in the middle price category. As an option, I consider the Binatone BL 661 model. Maybe someone will be able to share information or give advice on choosing. I will be very grateful.
Rita
Tasha,
for what purposes is a blender needed? To achieve the most uniform texture, you need a very powerful blender of at least 1000 W.
Oca
Tashenka, you can look for a good blender on sites / forums / social. networks in the section "techniques for raw foodists". But there will be semi-professional models, they quickly grind everything into dust, but they are much more expensive than our simple ones (and you can't buy them in a store around the corner).
Tashenka
Thanks for answers.
I will not financially afford such expensive ones ... The maximum that I can afford is 5 thousand rubles. (and then cutting down the rest of the costs to impossible). I would like to have a capacity of at least 600. I have a low-power one.
Doxy
Tasha, take a closer look at Tefal BL 523.Experience of use for two years, I cook cream soups, liver pate and minced meat for chicken sausage in it, 500 watts is enough for this for the eyes! Grinds everything into dust, very pleased with the quality of the final product. True, there are a couple of troubles: there are leaks at the junction of the removable bottom with the glass, it is unpleasant of course, but it does not affect the operation of the unit; the volume of products must be at least 400 ml, less quantity does not break through.

I very carefully reread the forum thread, I learned a lot, the only thing I wanted to add, here many advise using a bread maker to knead dough, to which I will say this is not a very good option, in the spring-autumn period I am at the dacha, where I have to use the bread maker as a dough mixer for baking bread and dough products, toil! and not only me, (there are about 8 of us and everyone spits in the direction of the bread machine, the bread machine is different for me and my sister Panaconik 256) the voltage is often less than 190 volts, the stove rises even with a small amount of flour, it is generally not possible to use bread for baking as it is often turn off the voltage and the program crashes, because I bake bread in e-mail. oven, in Moscow in winter, the same problem, the voltage drops especially in the evening to 200 volts, the oven barely turns, and if, for example, rye dough, it generally gets up, because I think that the kneader is relevant, the oven takes up a lot of space, and is used only for kneading and that is defective.
My question is this, I look towards the KMIX KMX50 kenwoods, they are almost naked only kneading, this is what I need, but it is not clear at such a high cost of about 25t rubles, they have a power of only 500W, they can cope with kneading dough up to 1kg.
Vei
We have another branch about kneaders, but I will answer here anyway. If you only need to knead the dough, then pay attention to the planetary mixer Gastrorag. I had one, it’s just big for me, and it didn’t beat small amounts of proteins very well. But I kneaded the dough with a bang, and basically did it. The price is around 5-6 thousand rubles.

If you have such problems with voltage, where is the confidence that it will be enough for the most sophisticated mixer?

Everything is very simple, in the bread maker there is a rather weak electric motor of about 300W with a voltage drop of 10%, about 250W remains and plus low efficiency, and by the way, not only for me, this problem occurs quite often, just many do not pay attention to the voltage drop, but are only surprised sometimes the bread did not work out, but it did not work out precisely because of a bad batch.

Hello, I'm looking for a food processor. Now I have Energy 🔗 He is already 10 years old. works properly, though I do very little hiring. (chop and squeeze the juice). That's basically it. There are many attachments, but they are not effective. There are good reviews on the Internet about Saturn ST-FP0068

It is made by China, not Ukraine, while the quality leaves much to be desired. I had a Saturn toaster, I remember with a shudder, it constantly broke.

If you need a good harvester, look in the direction of Bosch or Brown, this technique is time-tested and the housewives who use it.

Girls, I need advice.
I'm looking for a harvester. Required - a universal knife for minced meat for sausages (that is, the power should be good), shredders - the more, the better.Cubes, fries, Korean carrots are desirable (at least the opportunity to buy as additional options).
A juicer, meat grinder, dough mixer are not needed. The first 2 are categorically not needed, there are good individual ones.
Desirable compact and inexpensive.

They discuss 5529, or different Bosch models (it seems like many are already cutting into cubes).

Here's what I found.
🔗
Manual for the new product from Supra.

The price is still unknown.

While I was rushing between Vitka, Filipk and Bosch, they promised to release exactly what I needed. Chopper approximately 1.5-2 liters, shredder-grater-cubes, 1150 W power. And a lower motor for greater compactness.

I have a hand blender and a fine chopper. I wrote about the meat grinder and juicer.
Everything I want. And I already refused Fili, and ordered Bosch 5529.
I want Supra, I can't wait, because I want cubes here and now!

I think the price will be humane. After all, their multi was quite inexpensive, and no complaints?

Hello. Or maybe someone already has a KitchenAid Artisan Kitchen Processor, 4L 5KFP1644? He's a novelty, but maybe someone has already tried it ... and can tell how he is in business. Very tempting - cutting into cubes (Russian salad-salad is our EVERYTHING); 3 cups of different sizes; it seems like he can grind the minced meat in PUREE (like a cutter), which is especially important for me - homemade sausages are just a song, and the Philips blender cannot cope with the infection, it heats up - it turns off (in general it is good !!! still alive); well, shortbread-dumplings dough (not yeast), it seems, can also; more slicing-shredding ... Something so tempting !!!!! True, the price bites, and only one review was found (generally positive). Maybe someone will dispel doubts ...
Baba Valya
Neeeeeeeeeee I already walked on both topics, I DO NOT need a mixer (I beat a little, Vitek suits), a meat grinder (my Mulinex with a capacity of 1700 is a beast machine), a blender is also not needed (Phillips wrote above - handsome!). Actually, the functions of this processor are interesting, can anyone have tried it .... I would change the citrus juicer in it for a dough sheeter - the price would not have been a Dream ...

ptashka
Girls,
I'm also thinking about what to buy, for a month I have been going to forums and shops,
But no matter how many options I go through, I always return to the Brown K700 model.

I like the idea that both bowls are always in sight, there is no need to look into the cabinets, take them out, or rebuild, change the attachments ...
and the design is generally "mine", I love everything in German - straight and even.

As far as I understand, those graters and shredders that come as standard are quite enough, right?
Do you need to buy anything?
And then they don't talk about any model, they write everywhere - this grater is inconvenient, you need to order a medium (large), etc.
please, tell us more about these graters, how convenient is it to wash?

And yet, tell the owners of this harvester, how much waste is left when rubbing-cutting?

And how are slices in thickness, for example - to make cucumbers thinner, and thicker radishes, are there suitable options here?

And why do you need such an ancient model? Well, yes, German quality, what's true is true. The machine is a beast. But it is not known what they are now, where they are collected. I bought for a long time, about 8 years ago. Year 4 is packed in a closet.

As for the graters, now I don't remember exactly what and how much waste. It seems not very much, rubs normally, washes too. But all this is also available on more modern combines.

But the main thing that will disappoint you is that both cups will not stand at the same time. To work with one bowl, the second must be removed, there is such a "switch" between them, which does not allow the second bowl to stand.
The harvester itself is very good, the knives are excellent, especially in the small one.
The attachments are only suitable for a large bowl, for a small one only a knife.

So, think carefully before taking. If I took a combine now, then with a cube cutter.
ptashka
Vasilica,
thanks for your feedback.

the cube cutter is not important for me, so from Boshe I considered the MCM 5540 combine.

I have a family: me, my husband, and my daughter is 13 years old.
Cubes for salads are not so often needed, and in very small quantities, I cut them with a potato cutter.

it is the cutting, grating and kneading of the batter that is important. (I don't bake buns, only cakes and cottage cheese).
and I have a juicer, a great big one, Boshevskaya.

In the 5540 model, the lid that the blender covers is confusing. If you want to buy a harvester, it's LONG.

I apologize to Kenwood lovers, but I do not like the Kenwoods outwardly, they are cumbersome and expensive. I do not consider them.
I am looking for a white model, I will still buy a meat grinder, but I think that separately, and not as part of a combine.

I also considered PHILIPS HR-7762/90, But it's black !! and this does not suit me at all.

Vasilica
ptashka, you do not have a city in your profile, if you lived in St. Petersburg, I would give you my Brown to use. True, I do not have it with all the attachments. No juicer or dough attachment. Only knives and graters, I didn't need the rest, so when I moved, I took what I use.

Thank you)))

will not work)))

I have had such a combine for about 9 years. Excellent equipment, reliable, proven over the years, do not even hesitate. In terms of power, it is very good, there is protection against overheating or against misuse. I somehow made orange juice (a lot), and I pressed and did not let it work properly, so it turned off, and then after 5 minutes it started working again. To be honest, I was scared that I broke it. This is how it still works. Any dough is kneaded, even on dumplings - quickly and easily. The set in the combine is such that you don't need to buy anything, only there is no cube cutter. And there is cutting into strips. With the lid (where the hole for the blender is), which is covered, held and opened perfectly, there were no problems at all and no.
ptashka
Lagri,
I don't need a cube cutter.

but how is your question solved, if you need to process a small amount, for example, grate a little onion and herbs,
there is no small container here? In this case, I will have to buy another small shredder ... ??
Lagri
ptashka, I now have a lot of different equipment and of course, I use a shredder or multi-cutter. But, if you put half of the onion and greens in the bowl of the combine, then you can chop it, there the knives will chop everything. I sometimes grind the meat in it, and in front of it, first the onion, so it grinds everything.If you use only one combine, then you can adapt, of course, you can do everything with it. But I love household appliances so much that I bought a lot of things and not so much needed, but I don't regret it.
