Faults: - When unpacking, much less plush appearance as the photo. One has the impression of having bought a robot 20 at GIFI. - On first use, the impression is confirmed: the knives arise without real attachment to their base and their noise rotating remember the worst robots cheap. I seem to have paid 80 too much on this unit. - The engine lacks power: Brewer blocks or dislodges from its support when there is too strong brewing (but then, I ask him perhaps a bit too much for a robot to 100). - Poor sealing lid despite the presence of a seal (all fine and ill-posed, and the cover does not correctly based on the entire surface of the bowl) so pay attention to liquid mixing at full speed. - The control panel is not as intuitive as this: Having never sure that the program is stopped when I want to do another one, I disconnect and reconnect each time. Normally you only have to press the On / off to cancel the program, but the indications on the display are not clear and you are never sure to have canceled much. The device beeps so we no longer know if it beeps because he recorded our order or precisely because, our order is not appropriate. All this, I think it's a hand to take, but it could be an area for improvement on a new line. - The robot starts to break down once you start pressing keys to program it. The first time, one wonders what is happening. It is not serious but it's good to be warned. - When ordering him to mix on high speed, in fact, only a minute he mixes high, then switches itself on average speed, regardless of the order that was given him. Motor protection program? In that case, would it not be better to push the engine power rather than curb the device? - There is a game at the snap of the bowl on the base. What makes 2 once, the unit will not start and beeps 3 times to indicate that the bowl is poorly developed. Sometimes it takes me back to me 2 or 3 times to successfully replace it properly.
Qualities: - When used in the blades or the brewer, there is no noise. This is the training of accessories by the axis which is noisy (and a very unpleasant noise). So for steam or water, it is perfect. - Toasting steam and water effective. I did steam at 120 ° for lenses, with water at 100 ° for quinoa. The container is quite small but comfortable for small amounts. The device could replace a babycook. - The choice of materials in contact with food is sensible: Stainless steel for the bowl, glass rimmed with stainless steel lid. Strong and non-toxic materials. That was what led me to take this robot there. - Efficient mixing.
Conclusion: In my opinion, the price is too high. The unit heats well, mix well too, but it's too noisy and the finish is rough: seal too small and poorly placed, impossible to recover properly, the cover that does not rely entirely on the bowl, the bowl clipping hazardous on its base, knives posed only, strong rotation and especially noise that leaves an impression of poor quality. When I said that I had the impression of having a cheap robot, I'm not exaggerating. Disappointed by Russel Hobbs, whose products are usually of excellent quality, I consider that this robot should not cost more than 60 and that he would find his place in the appliance radius cheap GIFI kind of a store or the Foir ' search. I make it.
