...i decided to buy the Kenwood FP180.
I have had mine for about 4 months now and i have been very impressed with it. I bought it for around about £30 and i think that for what comes with it, it is good value.
You may think why not buy just a basic blender but I have friends that have bought them just for when their babies are on puree then they have chucked them in a cupboard never to be used again. I have used mine a lot since i bought it and i ... ...finally on normal food as you can do loads of other stuff with it.
My only complaint about it like all blenders it can be quite noisy.
The instructions of how to use everything on it and what goes where although a bit flimsy are helpful with picture diagrammes, it tells you how to attach and use each part, e.g. cutting plate can be used on carrots, potatoes, cabbage etc and it tells you how to clean it if only it was self cleaning!

Quick review of Kenwood FP180 Review ofKenwood FP180by
CPDavies
We bought one three years ago and have had to ditch it already. The plastic of the processor bowl is poor quality and cannot take hot liquids such as soup without cracking. The chopping and slicing attachments leave a big gap which allows pieces of food such as carrot to slip through. Most seriously of all, the switch went wrong, leaving the bowl part unusable and no spare part was available. Go for a more expensive machine - you get what you pay for, and this one is a false economy.

This food processor was a replacement for my last Kenwood that expired after over 25 years of use.
The motor is housed beneath the bowl and this makes it very compact, and I am keeping it out on the worktop, the previous model was a big cream ugly thing more
This was initially an impulse buy but in 6 months of use is now a necessity.
My wife dislikes most fruit and vegetables but, as part of a get healthy campaign, she decided she needed to eat more fresh food. So a good compromise was to do it via a... more
