The Thermomix is designed to sit on the bench and be used daily. The size and weight of the Thermomix make it easily mobile and ideal for kitchens of every size.

  • Thermomix performs 12 functions with one bowl and one knife/blade. Thermomix provides customers with 3 ways in which to cook. The manual option allows customers to follow instructions from a book and select the time, temp and speed as they go. The Guided Cooking function enables the user to cook delicious dishes by following simple step-by-step on screen instructions with prompts provided by a recipe chip. Once attached to the appliance, the recipes on the chip are shown on the display, complete with nutritional information. Using the touchscreen, users can browse through a multitude of recipes. The automatic option is one step cooking, just add the ingredients and the Thermomix cooks the recipe for you.

  • Thermomix has a number of in-built safety features which make it user friendly for the whole family. It has electronic motor protection which prevents the motor from overloading and includes an automatic cut out and the mixing bowl lid is secured by an automatic lid locking mechanism, meaning it will not function if the lid is not properly locked. The Thermomix spatula has a safety shield which prevents it from making contact with the blades when the spatula is inserted through the hole in the mixing bowl lid. A beeping tone will sound at the end of the set cooking time to alert you that cooking is done and children or unauthorised users can be stopped from turning on the Thermomix by a four-digit safety code.

  • Thermomix saves time, space and money. It is efficient in its day to day use, one bowl cooking means there are less pots required and therefore a decrease in water usage when washing up. Thermomix has an advanced heating system that cooks with minimised energy consumption, making it more efficient and energy friendly. It saves money by allowing owners to cut down their grocery bills by swapping expensive pre-packaged items for whole foods and pantry staples. It allows owners to grind their own spices, mill their own flours, make their own butter and more. With Thermomix, preparation time is cut from minutes to seconds and the gentle cooking method ensures that the flavours, vitamins and minerals are locked in.

    A product of German design and engineering, the new model Thermomix is the fifth evolution of the appliance since it launched in 1980. Over 10 years of research and development has gone into the new model to ensure the quality of the product is maintained with the new developments and innovations.
