Pros & Cons
Pros
It's bulky so you do need some space to store it. Only major drawback is that it is fiddly to clean. All in all i find the results outweigh this disadvantage.
The ease of use and built-in cleaning programme are terrific, as is its good-looks compared to other manufacturers in this range. The only problem i have encountered is that the inside bottom marked the first time i used it. Self cleaning is slightly ... Read More
Cons
The appliance is great for the first few makes, but then burnt residue is left on the bottom. It also overflows creating a mess everywhere even when you barely fill it in. The recipes in the accompanying booklet are also very poor.
Worked fine for 2 weeks then blows every fuse in the house. I tried to call the customer service, they dint respond. I dint use it regularly, and it’s life was just 2 years, i’m not really happy.
I would save your money and don’t buy. Binned it. Horrendous and was tipped away.
Easy clean function only works to swill water around gently. Cleaning programme is a joke and sticks to the bottom of the machine. Self clean programme does absolutely nothing.
Highlights
Quality
A brilliant addition to our kitchen equipmentso easy to use excellent results.
Great , very easy to use and clean 👏 highly recommended 😀
I tried this out immediately after receiving, washed it out, made leek and potato soup and it was just superb.
The only function i am not impressed with, is the "chunky" option (or soup with pieces), as this literally just heats the ingredients up.
Price

Competitiveness
Taste like soup you would get from a restaurant, nothing like tinned soup, no comparison.
I got the idea it was dishwasher safe from the comparison chart with other products, i suppose that having some parts which are... Read More
The cream soup mode takes a few minutes longer than another soup maker.
Having viewed many different soup makers i settled on this one because it makes a smaller quantity of soup which means i can va... Read More

Footprint is similar to a kettle and only about two inches taller so i can leave it out on my worktop which means it will get used regularly

I am literally flinging ingredients into the soup maker and pressing start

If you have more time roasting your vegetables or browning garlic and onion before sticking it into the soup maker makes such a difference but 9 times out of 10 i am just whacking it all in and letting the tefal soup maker do the job
