Parsnip Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 I have a fridge in the garage that's just for beer. Right now there are 40 or so perfectly chilled bottles of Moretti in that fridge. And when I say perfectly chilled, I mean they're just on the cusp of starting to freeze, but they won't freeze, because my garage fridge is magic. I love that fridge. Sometimes if I'm having a bad day, I think about that fridge and what's in it and everything all rights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And i prefer not to think of that fridge at all..........? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looked at their website... they'll send a local 'advisor' to your house to give you a demo and take you through 'the process of buying'. Bet you won't get rid of that advisor easily without handing over your bank details! Looks like a £1000 vegetable chopper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 I’m guessing a soup maker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GboroRam Posted September 6, 2018 Author Share Posted September 6, 2018 12 hours ago, Moist One said: ??? what is it? what does it do? how much does it cost? tell me more???? It makes pretty much everything (barring fried or baked things). I've made soups, real lemonade, meat, fish, vegetables, butter, ketchup, barbeque sauce, curry sauce, bread dough, cakes - it's amazing. Doesn't take up loads of space and meant that I could sell the breadmaker and Kenwood, free up space from my tiny kitchen and have a machine that does the lot in a matter of minutes. And it does everything in that machine - so the only real washing up is the knives, forks and plates. I watched around 15 dishes being made up within an hour, and the only washing up that was at the end of it took up half a sink. In an hour. It's expensive, but it's such a great way to make your meals (all healthy, low-calorie stuff). Definitely would recommend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds a bit dodgy, and I couldn't live with that noise level. All you really need in your kitchen are good sharp knives and decent pans. I also have a hard held blender, which I mainly use for thickening soups and curries, a toaster and a kettle. Still got the crappy old electric cooker which was in the house when I bought it. It's fine, and the fridge doesn't play records or dispense croutons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never had any problems, never had anyone ask me to sign an NDA, you'll get loudnoise if you're chopping (maybe 10-30 seconds) - otherwise it's near silent. I don't think you'll be able to find anyone who has one complain about it - but plenty of people who don't have one will tell you not to get one.

No one's told me not to get one, I've never heard of it before. I don't see the need for blenders, bread makers, microwaves, pressure cookers, soda streams, teasmaids, coffee machines or fondue sets, so I'm probably not the target market anyway.

Our cheap soup maker does all the chopping, blending and cooking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
