Morphy Richards 1.6L Total Control Soup Maker, Smart Response Technology, Portion Control, 9 Settings, Keep Warm Function, Cool Touch, Touchscreen Display, Stainless Steel Pan, White, 501020

Easy to use and very quiet. Makes a much smoother soup than my old blender did. And it's all so much quicker. Easy to clean too. Dizevis a bit bigger than a kettle so it's easy to store. Nice sturdy feel to the material but it can be a bit heavy.

I didn’t make soup because it was too much hassle. I am not a great cook but I do like home made soup. A bit of leek and potato in the microwave was about my limit. Now with this Supa-Dupa Soup Maker I make soup 2 sometimes 3 days a week. I am trying all sorts of new (made up) recipes with the veg left in my Fridge - the stuff you think about chucking out but is not quite off. My soups are now full of flavour, my Son loves them too!! The fact that you can Saute in this too makes a big difference for me. It locks in all that lovely flavour. I sauté onions etc and throw them in my slow cooker and add in more to make a soup! Two meals in one. Why not, while you are chopping veg anyway. It’s very easy to clean. The inner compartment just pops out at the push of a button so its easier to hold and clean. I hold it over the bowl and wash with a cloth and soapy water then rinse under the tap. It does have a self clean which I use if I have a thick soup that might stick to the sides a bit. Not often that happens though. I think its worth paying a little extra for the extra features, the centre popping out for cleaning, the self clean function, the sauté function. It quick too and the soup tastes lovely and you only chopped veg and threw it in the machine! With a chicken stock of course. The soup tastes good without using the Sauté too. You can also make cold fresh fruit drinks and milkshakes. I love it. It looks good on the counter too.

It's not as good as our old Cuisinart soup maker but then it's much cheaper and it is lighter and easier to pour. The Morphy Richards blades hang down and get stuck if surrounded by, say, spinach leaves which brings up an error message that the (useless) instructions do not tell you about - you have to search the Internet to find the solution. The self-cleaner doesn't work properly so you have to scour the Stainless container, carefully, by hand and nothing can go in the dishwasher. Good soup and controls but minor niggles.

Very easy to use and clean, delighted with it. Has every feature possible, pre clean, sauté, keep warm, portion control (depending on recipe), smooth, medium and chunky settings. Only con it is very heavy.

I paid what I thought was a lot of money for a soup maker as I wanted a good one! Morphy Richard’s I have NEVER been so disappointed. Before I used it there was a sticker that I wanted to remove from its plastic outer jug and when I tried to peel it off it came off in tiny shreds hence I have a shredded plastic ad still stuck to the front of my soup maker. I had read not to use metal instruments due to the non stick surface, so I was meticulous in making sure I only used cloths to clean and dry. I have so far made four different soups. After the first soup the base went a dark grey colour which puzzled me but I carried on and have to say, the soups were delicious but after the fourth soup, (tomato), which was ready in 20 mins, to my amazement it had stuck to the base inside and it took ages to get the burnt soup from the base. The tomato was a smooth soup and I did find one or two chunks that had been missed in the blending. I certainly would never recommend this item to any friends and feel very let down.

Not made soup before; never had a soup maker. Wanted to get more veg into our diet - and swap out some meals occasionally for soups. As a subscriber to consumer champions Which?, I looked at their soup maker tests & reviews and this model was the outstanding winner - so I bought it. It's very straightforward to use (and I'm tech-averse): it has an inner jug that does all the work and lifts out for cleaning, it sautes (no separate frying pan needed), has 3 soup-type programmes - smooth, medium & chunky, a blender, pre-clean mode, does smoothies, and keeps soups warm once made. The timer on the lid counts down during cooking. The manual comes with a few recipes but the BBC Good Food website has lots of soupmaker recipes. It's a powerful machine, feels robust and is heavy to lift. It isn't compact in my opinion but it can make up to 1600ml which is a positive trade-off for me. (freeze excess), or simply make less. My only niggle is that you have to disconnect the cable when the program is finished - there is an on-off switch, but the off seems to operate only with the saute function. I might email them about this as it might be me. I love that you can make a delicious soup using just 3 utensils: a chopping board, knife and a WOODEN SPOON (don't scratch the non-stick base with metal versions). Blending otherwise chunky soups into velvety heaven is a feature that really elevates this appliance. It's not cheap (shop around and be careful to pick this model number because several variances omit the saute function) but if you want a top soup maker that is simple, solid with clever features, and works very, very well this meets your brief - and brilliantly.

Bought a second one of these after having the first for years. It has worked hard making gallons of soups each year from home grown veg. The original is still going strong and i gave it to a friend who loves it. I chose this one again as it has been reliable, the non stick is very good, it will saute and makes soups with little effort and no other pans. After a few years the original has one small spot on the bottom where the non stick has worn down a little in one small area, and a small amount burns on this spot. This happened as in saute it gets very hot and you should lift the lid and stir the contents every couple of minutes, i left it too long a few times. Stirring is not a problem as the saute function cooks quickly and when you put the lid back on it remembers where it is up to.There is no need to lift the lid to stir once it is on soup making function. The pot can be removed for very easy cleaning. During harvest season my soup maker has made 4 or 5 batches every day for 2 months and regular use through the year and has never had any other problem. With this new one i will just ensure i stir regularly during saute to maintain the non stick.

This is a wonderful machine and makes perfect smooth or chunky soup. I find it a little heavy as i am older but i leave it in place and use a ladel when full then i can pur the rest out .. Its very effiecent and make the most amazing soups. Its easy to clean as it has a pre clean setting which really works well once that cycle ends you just need to wash around the upper part of the internal jug and rince well, the are no odurs after using it from one kind of soup to another :) i am going to try the smoothies i am sure they will be perfect too. The saute function is very good and quickly sautes it has a non stick bottom so only wooden utensils. But its great i have made so many soups since i have had it i am very happy with it. From all the reviews of many machines I would say this was a good choice :) Love it :)

Amo le zuppe, ma non ho molto tempo ne pazienza per prepararle. Per questo negli ultimi anni ho avuto sempre dei soup maker nella mia cucina. Di ogni tipo, sia con le lame sul coperchio, sia con le lamé sul fondo. Purtroppo ho bruciato il motore (per la seconda volta!! ) delll'ultimo SoupMaker prima di questo. Aveva le lame fondo e in quei modelli, se si mette troppo brodo, non so per quale motivo, il liquido esce dal fondo e sono guai. Quindi molto meglio in modello con la lama sul coperchio, come questo!! Insomma ho valutato l'acquisto e trovato questo gioiellino su Amazon Warehouse a meno di 40€, cioè meno della riparazione del motore del mio vecchio! La descrizione lo dava come "usato accettabile", venivano descritti molti graffi e tutti belli grandi. Ho rischiato e sono stata premiata perché io i graffi proprio non li vedo. La scatola era tutta rotta (da paura) e mancava il manuale (facilmente poi trovato su internet, però solo in inglese). A differenza di quanto trovato in alcune recensioni, a me è arrivato con la Spina Schuko. Venendo alla recensione, secondo me i PRO sono: 1) Fa OTTIME ZUPPE, è più VELOCE di altri modelli. È molto SILENZIOSO e fa POCO VAPORE; 2) ha diversi PROGRAMMI: dalla vellutata alla zuppa con pezzi più grossi. Una funzione permette di mantenerlo caldo o riscaldarlo. Un'altra funzione trita/mescola (blend), qualora la zuppa non fosse abbastanza vellutata; C'è il programma per il soffritto (mai usato) e anche quello per fare i drink (tipo il milkshake); 3) è Super comodo il TIMER sul coperchio che indica quanti minuti mancano alla fine; 4) c'è un programma di 4 minuti che serve come pre-pulizia, inserendo acqua e un goccio di detersivo per i piatti. Era una cosa che facevo anche con altri modelli, pur non avendone la funzione, però mi piace il fatto che qui sia previsto; 5) è possibile selezionare per quante persone è la ricetta (2,3 o 4 persone) Cambiando le dosi, diminuisce il tempo di cottura. Per le vellutate è possibile solo selezionare se per 3 o 4 persone. Contro: 1) a differenza dei modelli che hanno un tappo dal quale è possibile introdurre ingredienti e liquidi al bisogno, qui non è possibile. Ovviamente si può fermare e far ripartire, ma per me è sicuramente più laborioso; 2) per selezionare il programma bisogna scorrerli tutti fino ad arrivare al prescelto. Quelli con i diversi pulsanti sono più pratici; 3) non è proprio un contro, più una delusione perché, essendo il contenitore in acciaio staccabile, pensavo fosse più semplice da pulire. In realtà ha dei sensori sul fondo e quindi non si può lavare immergendolo in acqua, come una comune pentola. Non trovo nessun vantaggio dal fatto di poterlo staccare dalla base, se poi non possibile immergerlo in acqua; 4) non c'è l'interruttore per spegnerlo. Si deve staccare la spina. In conclusione: straconsigliato se lo trovate, praticamente nuovo, a 40€ su Amazon Warehouse ma non so se vale i 120€ del prezzo pieno.

I really love this product. I've been using it for almost 4 month. Is really easy to use and very practical product, this is one of my favorite appliance in my Kitchen. We are 2 in the house so I make soup every 2 days. I had a problem with the soute function and immediately send a message to the buyer, they were very fast and kind and change it very fast. In 3 days I had the new one in my house. I really recommend this product. You can pause and open to add more ingredients during the process. My only concern was how to clean it but been carefully is very easy and the easy clean function helps a lot. I also buy the book with the recipes and we already tried lor of them and are really delicious.

Fácil de limpiar y usar.

This is our second one We bought our first one many years ago when needing to look after and feed elderly parents , sometimes they just wanted soup when the family meal wasn’t what they felt like. It was so easy to make a nutritious soup that they enjoyed when life was already busy particularly around meal times… This is one of the best kitchen appliances The first one is still going strong after being used very regularly for many years Love it.
