No Comments on Electrolux: bringing professional quality to the home kitchen

Be you a professional chef or a budding home cook, the new Electrolux Masterpiece Collection can help you achieve professional restaurant quality dishes from your home.

Launching later this month, the collection consists of a blender ($399), a food processor ($599) and an immersion blender, otherwise known as a stick mixer ($199), that feature innovative technology and a sleek design. Almost half of all Michelin-starred restaurants in Europe use Electrolux appliances and while they’re not promising you’ll be able to make food that good, the new collection certainly brings professional capabilities to home chefs!

Masterpiece Collect#220EC27 — Electrolux Masterpiece Collection Blender

Special features of the Electrolux Masterpiece Collection Blender include the PowerTilt feature, which uses the force of gravity to move the contents around the jug, so they then fall back down directly onto the blades. The PowerTilt is made possible by the optimal combination of titanium-coated blades, a precisely tilted jug/bowl and a powerful surge motor. Together, they blend even the toughest ingredients into the smoothest texture that conventional blenders cannot beat. Yet my favourite feature has to be the ingenious noise dampening design, so that you can whip up delicious breakfast smoothies without waking the whole house!

Masterpiece Collect#220F3B0 — Electrolux Masterpiece Collection Food Processor

Next in line is the Food Processor, which includes an adjustable slicing disc that features 28 settings from 0.15 to 0.75cm and an extra wide, dual-sized feeding chute. The titanium-coated stainless steel blades are guaranteed to stay sharper longer and offer increased durability and performance.

Masterpiece Collect#220F44A — Electrolux Masterpiece Collection Immersion Blender

Finally, the Immersion Blender is the first to feature a stand, which can be used throughout the cooking process and saves dirtying the bench. The stand is also durable enough to be cleaned in the dishwasher, saving time and hassle. The extra long stainless steel mixing bar also means it can be used directly in pots and pans and the professional triple blade and open foot design features mean no splashing when mixing.

The Electrolux Masterpiece Collection offers superior professional level appliances for the home without any compromise on quality, with a five-year product warranty on all appliances and 25 years warranty on the motor of the Masterpiece Collection Food Processor.

Oscar’s a real tough guy of a juicer

Post author By Jen Bishop
Post date October 6, 2013

There are some appliances which really need to be tough if they’re going to withstand daily use and a juicer is definitely one of them. I recently tried out Vitality 4 Life’s Oscar Neo DA 1000 and was seriously impressed.

Unlike some juicers which you’re scared to handle too roughly, the Oscar Neo gobbles up raw carrot and beetroot like a trooper. It was so easy and I was so confident about using it, I got well and truly hooked on juicing (beetroot, carrot, celery, apple and ginger was my fave) and was very sad when I had to give it back (still sobbing).

Making roasted beetroot dip with the Kitchenaid Artisan Food Chopper

Post author By Jen Bishop
Post date July 23, 2013

Here at Appliance Addict we like to put the latest gadgets to the test by actually using them when we get the chance. Luckily, Kitchenaid sent us a lovely dip recipe to give a go with their new Artisan Food Chopper, so I gave it a whirl and it was so delicious I thought I’d share it with you.

I’m happy to report that the chopper was a breeze to use, and everything about it impressed me, especially for something that costs less than $100. Here’s the recipe if you’d like to have a go yourself, with this, or a similar appliance, at home.

The new Kitchenaid Artisan food chopper: compact, easy and under $100

Post author By Jen Bishop

1 Comment on The new Kitchenaid Artisan food chopper: compact, easy and under $100

KitchenAid have just released their Artisan Food Chopper, a one touch, two-speed power machine that chops and purees in one nifty unit. What it sacrifices in size (which makes it something you could actually leave out on the bench top) this small and mighty addition to the iconic KitchenAid family makes up for in design and performance.

The razor sharp, serrated edge, stainless steel blade quickly processes small amounts of meat, fresh or cooked fruits and vegetables, and nuts and herbs – and will stay sharp for years to come. The reverse spiral design pulls food down into the blade for uniform chopping. It also minimises the need to scrape the sides of the bowl.

Kambrook X Blade KSB100: The guy test

Post author By Damian Francis
Post date June 25, 2013

If there is one thing that keeps people, especially men, away from home cooking, it’s difficulty. There are plenty of simple meals to create, but many of them need a kitchen gadget or 2 to bring the difficulty down a notch or speed up the process. Take Jamie’s 15 Minute Meals for example. All great and simple meals, but most require a blender or a mixer or something like that.

No drama, but that requires actually buying the mixer/blender (hudnreds of dollars) and the time to sit down and figure out how to use the damn thing. Without wanting to cast gender stereotypes, this is particularly difficult for guys. The majority of us have little patience for kitchen gadgets at the best of times. That rule also goes for appliances but that’s another story.

It’s been a while since I have done anything more than a chop and pan fry in the kitchen, so using the new Kambrook X Blade KSB100 was going to be interesting. There is one strict rule I have when it comes to appliances: if I am going to use it regularly, it needs to be simple. I shouldn’t have to read the instruction. So I didn’t. Also, it shouldn’t slice my finger off, which is why I’m now extremely cautious around knives and baked bean cans with ring pulls.
