Advantages: Very fast and versatile Disadvantages: Quite heavy
...Magimix4100 is the only food processor, that I know, which comes with 3 different bowl sizes.
The motor of the processor is in the base that is about 25 x 20 x 15 cm
The three bowls are stuck, one inside the other, over the base of the food processor, in such a way that is possible to use the small one on the top without removing the others, or remove the smallest and use the medium or remove the first two and use the biggest. The smallest bowl has the removable cutting blade already in it and is used for cutting herbs or very small amount of food; I also use it for making castor sugar or icing sugar in small quantity. The second bowl, medium, has, already in it, a special removable "plastic paddle" for beating eggs or making meringues. The most roomy, of course, is the third bowl which is the one that has an handle, it clicks...

Advantages: Use it for everything in the kitchen Disadvantages: You need extra space to store blade box
...If you are not versed in the world of food processor's - you are forgiven as not many are.
We recently married and decided to replace our old processor with something more up to date and modern looking that would fit into our kitchen.
What do you get for your money?
The Magimix 4200 comes in a large box with a handle, so easy to carry around if you are shopping (although a bit heavy so buy it at the end of your trip).
The product comprises of 2 parts:
- the main food processor
- a separate plastic storage box for all the components.
The magimix has 3 bowls - mini, midi and a main bowl.
The mini bowl is a small bowl which can be used for things such as chop garlic, to make a salsa verde or pesto. Equally, it is useful when you are only chopping a small amoutn of food, making less to wash up.
The midi bowl...

Advantages: There are none Disadvantages: Lots of them
...What an absolutely terrible machine. Complete and utter waste of money. I will tell you why?
I am a keen cook and my family love icecream. With the cost of the 'speciality' ice creams rather expensive I thought I would invest in an ice cream maker. I chose Magimix as I have had their food processor for many years and they are (I thought) a tried and tested company, so I bought their 1.5 ltr ice cream maker in good faith. What a mistake!!
The machine arrived and not having used one of these machines before, I followed the manufacturers instructions to the letter.
You have to mix the ingredients before you make the ice cream, which I suppose is logical with the cheaper version machines (although with p & p this machine cost £55) and you have to freeze the bowl in the freezer.... which I knew about, but not an easy task...

What do you more
This model is a great model, however i would recommend for occasional users buying a more compact model. This model's largest bowl will carry a huge amount of liquid, and is barely ever used in my house. The machine however is easy to use, and has a... more
With the weather being so hot a few weeks ago, what could be nicer than home made ice cream?
I have made ice cream in the past, its quite a long process-you have to heat the cream slowly, then add some ingredients then let the mixture cool before adding more
