Philips HR1372 Great Product

Advantages: Easy to use, quick, sturdy and stylish.
Disadvantages: None that I can think of

The Philips HR 1372 is possibly one of the best hand - held blenders around at the moment and I am delighted to be the first to review it. You can purchase this from Amazon for £59.29, but I managed to find a very good deal on it approximately 10 months ago for which I paid just £35.00. Having a look around is a must! I had never previously owned any type of hand blender before so I must admit, when it arrived, I was somewhat confused as to why the ...
...results are great - in-fact Philips state that it gives you professional results, I really can't argue with that. Cakes turn out so light and fluffy, like they're supposed to as you manage to get so much more air into the mixture than if you were doing it by hand. The first thing I made on receiving this was a very basic packet of Angel delight, I used the whisk attachment for this, the end result was great, it took very little time and came out ...

Review of Philips HR 1372

Easy way to 5 a day!

Advantages: Easy to use and clean. Looks nice
Disadvantages: Noisy

...5 a day and the Kenwood SB 277 has done the trick! The machine itself is quite large but its black and chrome exterior means that it looks good on the kitchen worktop. It is easy to put together. I managed to assemble it fairly quickly. It has a large glass jug (1.5l capacity), which is dishwasher safe. The black lid has a hole with a cap to add ingredients. It also has a pull down tap making it easy to serve the smoothie up into several glasses. ...
...makes it simple to get your smoothies to the right consistency. I personally like mine not to thick and lump free so I used the faster speed for a slightly longer time. It blends very well although it is quite loud. The smoothies themselves were absolutely delicious. It comes with a recipe book full of ideas to try. I have also found it useful for crushing ice and making cocktails! This has been a quick, easy and delicious way to 5 a day! ...

Blend Blend

Advantages: Blending goodness

Having had this brought for me as a present over a year ago i have to give it to this mighty machine its still as powerfull and usfull as the day i unwrapped it. THE LOOK: Very chic in silver and black this blender (WELL YOU COULD ALMOST CLASS IT AS A POWER TOOL) looks fab on anyone kitchen surface esp mine. Silver casing black buttons, and plastic mixing jug. USEABILITY: I use mine most days, not just for smoothys but for many other blender useages(WE ...
...MUCH MORE IN IT) this machine is one powerfull contraption. Frozen friut, bread to make breadcrumbs, ice, food for the kids when they were smaller, cheese sauces etc. Its simple to use, the plastic jug and the stiring pole at the top they all come apart for cleaning. The tap on the front lets you pour out your juice/smoothy and with the different buttons you can make things chunky /smooth depending on how you like your drinks. CLEANING IT: This ...

Review of Breville BL18

Kenwood, your a cat saver!

Advantages: Easy to clean, powerful and does the job
Disadvantages: A bit noisy

...This Silver and glass Kenwood caught my eye on the shelf out of a list of 30 products on show, it was exactly what I was looking for, a small easy to fit on my already crowded kitchen worktop, easy to use and importantly just the right price ( it was on offer at £35.99 from £59.99). As soon as I got it home, I put it straight to use, it really is very easy, even for a man like me (well I'm no Gordon Ramsey), just plug it in, put the contents to ...
...Tuna) and away you go. Now I've never used one of these before so I was a bit confused as to why it wasn't moving so well in the glass bowl, the blades where wizzing around inside but not really doing their job so well. So I put in some cat milk (don't give your cat cows milk, its not good for them), and hey presto it was churning away ten to the dozen, with it having variable speeds I found this to be a great help, it certainly makes it frothier, ...

Review of Kenwood BL 740

cheap and nasty

Advantages: incredibly cheap
Disadvantages: noisy, inefficient, leaves lumps

...you pay for. I believe Cookworks have brought out a more recent model which may be better but unless the head in particular has been re-designed I think it will have the same shortcomings. That's really all I have to say but have added this last bit to make up the required length of text! ...
