Simple to use but stainless steel has burn marks already which our plastic one never had. In washing you need to make sure water doesnt get on contacts. The soups are perfect otherwise. It was cheap so no complaints really!
Useless piece of kit. There is a knob on front which says "CHUNKY SOUP" and in the instruction book there are instructions to get SMOOTH or CHUNKY soup. On querying with TOWER I have been informed that this model does not make CHUNKY soup. The mind BOGGLES.
