Lindam MINI Blender

I had looked at the 'Lindam' blender several times on my trips to Tesco and I had virtually decided to purchase one when the time came foe Ellie to have solids. I changed my mind when it actually came to buying a blender for Ellie's food; with money tight due to my maternity leave pay, I decided to try the Sainsburys 'value' hand held blender, which cost less than £5.00 This proved to be a MASSIVE mistake. On my first go at pureeing food for Ellie, I was very enthusiastic and keen. I had prepared the apples and carrots, following strictly the instructions in my Annabel Karmel book and I was ... more

I bought this for under £20 for the sole purpose of home pureeing baby food but hopefully will get other uses out of it eg making smoothies etc This does the job basically, It comes apart into 4 pieces. The main unit which plugs into the mains, the plastic holder with measurements on, the blade and the lid. It all secures on nicely with a bit of twisting as directed on the blender.

It is operated simply by turning on at wall, and pressing blue ... more

So I decided I would make food myself. I looked at lots of different blenders especially the Asda own food blender, but i thought what if it doesn't cut the food that small and it's bigger to store. I saw this on offer in Asda and thought PERFECT! I tried it out and the food was so soft and creamy, which was ideal for weaning. It blends any veg, any meat and any fruit with no problems. It has a measuring ... more

I bought this recently & am quite impressed with the results from such a small blender. It takes a fair amount of food (i usually get about 6 meals for my 4 month old) & blends nicely. There may be a few tiny lumps but nothing my son couldn't cope with. The blades will not work unless the lid is sealed properly which is a plus on the safety side. On the down side, rather than being able to flick an 'on' switch until it's blended, you have to push down & hold the button. The bowl & lid with blades go in the dishwasher so is really easy to keep clean. Overall a godsend for mum's & easy for ... more
