That's what I was wondering Eccles, but if it chops it may be a winner, that's the bit I hate :)

Is on my wish list too.

mamy...treat yourself...one of the best buys ever...
Does it chop all the veg for you?
Hi MM I looked at buying one of these but haven't as yet. Can I ask how easy you find it to clean? Obviously it can't be immersed in water so how fiddly actually is it please? :)

you only have to rough chop and blade inside liquidises if you want or leaves roughly chopped if you prefer..also an extra blend option at the end for you to make bit less chunky if wanted.does smoothies too. easy to clean hold top bit under tap and just swill out the jug ....really can't praise high enough...
Thanks MM, that's my kind of washing up. Enjoy your soup :)
Gosh...I'd never known these existed! Looks good.....do you get the same depth of flavour as a soup that has been simmered for a while?

absolutely pasta !
How is a soup maker more convenient than a saucepan and a stick blender/liquidiser?

it chops blends and cooks and is in a jug so easy to serve up...easy clean and store...like a largish jug kettle....saves time mess and washing up of utensils....

makes 4 large or 6 medium servings..about litre and half...
For myself I can't see the point of a soup maker Minty, I like the chopping up of the veg I find it very soothing, and relaxing, and I can still get on with chores while it cooks, and the only washing up I have is my knife, chopping board, and pan - and the "outboard motor" if I blend it smooth. Still it doesn't do for us all to be the same, as long as we are all enjoying the soup at the end of the day it doesn't matter one jot how it got into the bowl!
I've got a slow cooker, what would be the advantage? Does it heat the soup up, too?
Does Heinz and a can opener count?
Yes it cooks it.
Informatively, the Morphy Richards is one of the lowest rated soup makers here in the U.S. I might say, though, right along side other U.S. made ones. In fact the only brand that has very high marks appears to be another U.K. brnad... Thermomix ... but that one, although quite serviceable, appears to be the most expensive at nearly $200 (U.S.).

Our brand of choice in most countertop appliances seems to be Cuisinart, and the Thermomix has much higher ratings in all areas than the Cuisinart at about $125...
