Kitchen appliances - stove, oven, microwave, and whatever else is needed!

You’re not seriously comparing a Swiss Army knife costing 50... 80€ with the nearly 1500€ TM?

No! I’m comparing people who use only 10-20% of the functions of a multi-tool out of lack of skill and imagination with me. That was the point of the comparison.

If someone cuts meat with a switchblade, there’s no helping them. That’s what’s included in the TM. Switchblade, not cutting tool. You have to know that and be able to work with that knowledge...

Once someone served me a goulash from the TM. The meat was tough, the sauce was jelly-like. It was more reminiscent of a aspic. She also noticed that the sauce was too thick, noticed that she had added too little water in cooking step 2 - but she didn’t come up with the simple remedy.

You wouldn’t believe it, a TM doesn’t protect against stupidity or lack of talent.

A mixer for 10 euros can’t do the same because it doesn’t have the power and torque often needed. Possibly also not the speed.

But now enough advertising, you can live well without it and whoever doesn’t want it doesn’t need it. It remains an emotional piece of technology.

For pizza we still have an Alfredo, which reaches 400 degrees and makes an almost perfect stone oven pizza in 5 minutes.

What I would still like to have is a great gas grill from ODC, Rösle or Webergrill. Basically something decent.

For years I thought a charcoal grill was a must because of the taste. Big nonsense. A gas grill is better in every respect. Heats up faster, much better controllable including for slow and low, taste-wise it is just as good as a charcoal grill. Usually also more grill surface, several heat zones. Smoke aroma if needed is also possible.

Well, eventually I’ll get it and the kettle grill will finally go away.

(distant relatives built a new house on the property next to the existing house many years ago. The new house was completely furnished, very high-quality with glossy tiles, glass tables, leather couch, ridiculously expensive kitchen. However, the family continues to live in the old house to preserve the new one – only visitors are shown around there...)

You're kidding, right? I would expect something like that more on RTL's afternoon programming than in real life. What is the reason for living in the old house, or do they themselves say they want to preserve the new house? XD

Anyone who does something like that surely also eats small children. The beautiful filet
I was just about to write "nobody claims that the TM can chop things nicely and evenly." Then I remembered that some consultants actually do say that. Luckily, I lived in Hamburg when I bought mine, so I could go to the shop and didn’t have to endure any dreadful sales event. I don’t know if I would have bought one otherwise… By the way, mine didn’t cost just under €1500 but exactly €999 (including a second cookbook). It was an opening offer back then.

The consultants do a good job. Mine also improvised a lot and showed that you can cook individually. That’s convincing. But a lot was exaggerated and sugar-coated.
Topic smoothie for example. Real ones. The rotations are not enough for that.

No! I compare people who use only 10-20% of the multifunction tool’s capabilities out of lack of skill and imagination to me. That was the point of the comparison.

I don’t find that bad at all. But it’s a different thing whether you spend €80 and use only 30% or €1500 (I feel like that’s the current price including the second bowl) and use only 30%.

I think if it cost €300, some people who have it now wouldn’t have it and just join the hype, while others who can’t afford it now would own one.

Anyone who cuts meat with a blade knife is beyond help. Because that’s what’s in the TM. Blade knife, not cutting blade. You have to know that and be able to work with that knowledge...

No idea, I was cooked for

For years I thought a charcoal grill was necessary because of the taste. Big nonsense. Gas grill is better in every respect. Heats up faster, much easier to regulate, also for slow and low,

Same here: for about a quarter of a year we have had an Enders gas grill and we have grilled more than usual in a whole year. The grilling fun is still there.

They themselves say that the new house should be preserved, the furniture too. It's also cleaned daily. He also buys a new star every 2 years, which then only stays in the garage. For shopping, he goes with a rusty 3 Series Golf...

How weird that is What exactly has to be preserved? For their second life???
