  • This is my full review of the new THERMOMIX TM6! I've spent a few weeks testing all of the cooking functions and making sure It's been properly put through it's paces. I'll be posting a detailed blog post with the test images and a bit more detail which will be going live on the 6th April at my blog: sophiaskitchen.blog/
    If you would like a shorter video with my initial impressions please check out the video I posted last week: • NEW Thermomix TM6 Init...
    My final verdict video will be posted very soon in which I will summarise my review and give you my comparison of the TM5 and TM6 and whether I think it is worth the upgrade.
    I wanted to create some extra footage for you on the day for this video to demonstrate my results but unfortunately the Thermomix TM6 decided to completely bug out on the filming day and I had to do a full reset which took quite a while! A bit of a shame... but please check out my blog post which contains more detail and images: sophiaskitchen.blog/thermomix...

    Awesome Review!
    Thank you for pointing out the baby-sitting and mandatory cookidoo subscription to use certain modes.
    Cool machine with lots of potential but for now I stay with pan and pot...
    I do like the scale and precise water heating. But for that only the TM6 is overkill :D
    I will wait/see&listen what you point out and recommend. Thank you very much!

    Thanks for such a wonderful in-depth review Sophia. I have decided that apart from the bigger screen, there really is nothing about this machine that excites me. I think I will just go ahead and upgrade my TM31 to the TM5 as it will do all I need and want to do. :)

    You see all these positive reviews, and I do think it's a great kitchen device, (even though many people - not here maybe - got their unit for free in order to do the review.) This is a great seemingly unbiased review. My bottom line opinion is that its cost/benefit ratio is highly variable depending on each individual's personal situation. This includes aspects such as cooking skills/enjoyment, available time, financial, and depth/breadth of cuisine interest. For me, the 1-2 hours I spend every night cooking dinner after doing complex tasks in front of two computer monitors all day is my mental Yoga because I love to cook, from scratch, and most of the time, without a recipe. I love the feel of the knife in my hand. I love the challenge of having 2-3 things cooking on the stovetop at once. Now if I were someone that had other interests I wanted to free up time for and didn't enjoy cooking as a hobby, and a $1,500 USD counter-top high-tech kitchen device is within my budget, this could be a Godsend. Overall though I tend to think in our modern world we all have a bias towards liking new technology and exaggerating, at least a little, its actual life benefit.

    Very good and honest review. As a avid cook, who likes to try everything, I think I'll hold off buying the TM6 for now. The only thing that entices me to buy it is to make some recipes that doesn't requires me to stand there and stir for hours...

    Hello Sophia, THANKYOU so much for your awesome review, very helpful. My daughter owns a TM5 and has loved it , using it most days. She has always encouraged me to purchase one, which I have not yet done. I have been really encouraged of late though and have made a final decision, Yes my kitchen and I will most definitely benefit to own one, I am waiting for the TM6 to be available to purchase this one. I am learning a lot on yours and other you tube video's, thankyou for sharing, new subby here.

    Hi Sophia, thanks you for the review. I am tempted with the TM6 but I am still considering if it’s worth it or not. I really love my TM. 5. I like to make up my own recipes so I wonder if you can freelance your own recipes? Big decisions. It’s annoying though that you are tied into the cookidoo subscription.

    Hi Sophia, I own a TM6 since almost 1 year, and follow your TH-cam recipes on a regular basis. I was wondering : the white matt/platter on which you put your TM6 ... is it only used to move your TM6 slightly, or does it also minimize the noise which the TM6 makes when you have to mix some ingredients at speed 9 or 10 ? Or is there another kind of platter/matt which can be used to reduce the noise ? (PS : I live in Belgium)

I really appreciate how you express a real useful opinion beyond the basic review (such as the blades running during slow cooking which means you can’t have chunks of meat). Amazing job!

I liked using it for my own recipes far more. I can easily afford to pay for cookidoo but not really needed in my opinion. The TH-cam videos give me ideas to try so thank you for your input.

  • @maggieandkylescott7363
    @maggieandkylescott7363 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Hi Sophia - thanks for such a detailed and excellent overview. I would love to see you do a comparison of the TM6 with the Magimix Cook Expert. I have a TM5 and use it a lot, and I don't mind the babying so much, as I like the automated steps which helps my husband to use it (lol), but it drives me crazy that the bowl is so narrow at the base and I can't see properly into the bowl when mixing etc. The Cook Expert overcomes these issues with a glass lid and a much larger capacity, wide-based bowl. Having said that, I don't think it has integrated recipes which I think is disappointing for me. Are you thinking about doing such a comparison video? I'm so on the fence about which way to go here. I'd be happy to go with the TM6 but the capacity etc is an issue for me as I like to do a lot of batch cooking. Please let me know what you think? Happy for comments from others if you've done this comparison. PS I already have a 4200XL magimix chopper/food processer and I know that the new cook expert comes with one of those, but I bet that the bowls from my existing unit don't fit the cook expert (at least then I could've had two sets of bowls!) Any thoughts/comments??

    • @tarzoun69
      @tarzoun69 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Dear Margaret. For me it is the opposite problem. I have a Magimix which I really love because you’re not stuck to the Cookidoo mode. If you want easy recipes to follow you can download a iOS or Android app named cook expert. You can look by yourself on your dedicated App Store. But because of this my daughters 16 and 14 don’t use it as often as I would like them to. Instead they order delivery food which I would like them to get away from and learn how to cook for the future. That’s why’s I’m looking into the TM6 for the easy use in following an online recipe step by step.

    Could you use the "blade cover" to keep the chunky pieces of the slow cook away from the blades? The blades would still spin and circulate the fluid, while the large pieces would remain intact and be heated/cooked?

    • @herbertwilliam8480
      @herbertwilliam8480 ปีที่แล้ว

      As far as I know, the latest automatic cookers have a "blade cover" that prevents shredding. My new Tokit Omni Cook has the function and when I am simmering, the food does not get chopped up.

    Thanks for the review, I was approached to buy a TM5 at a very reduced rate. I already have one, but haven't liked the slow release function of the lid when cooking stops. Thanks to your review, I know the release is slightly better on the TM6, so that is a winner for me. Not sure about the compulsory cookidoo though. Look forward to your final comparison video.

    I doubt many commercial chefs would be interested in the instructional recipes, the TM6 would lose a potentially lucrative market. Two models catering for two very different users would have been a better strategy.

    Hello Sophia! Thank you for a very thorough review. This week I started thinking about buying it for the first time, I think it could really make the day-to-day easier in the kitchen..
    But your review kept me thinking a lot on some of the downsides..
    Why bother to spend more 700€ than a Moulinex Companion if the scales need so much repair? (So I've heard..) I really thought this would be very superior in quality, after making some research, but then you talk about the limitation of Cookidoo, and that just pisses me off.. It kind of reminds me of Apple's marketing strategy, you spend a lot on a product but then neet to spend even more to get all the features.
    Does anyone knows if we can upload recipes to the machine outside of Cookidoo? It seems we can't..
    I would really like if you could make a video now, 1 year later, and tell us about your experience..
    Have those issues been resolved with updates?
    Anyone outhere that has a TM6 and may help?

      @SirScarecrow Thank you so much! I have been watching a lot of Thermomix videos and also realised that. It seems that the scales' sensors are really sensitive and people are not that very careful with them.. Also heard that some people clean it with products that are too abrasive, and that's not good..
      It seems like a very good machine but for that price it shouldn't be so sensitive as well :p

      Hi Rita. I am a Thermomix advisor, and some parts of this review needs updating. The issue about the cookidoo login has now being resolved and it works really well. Vorwerk is consistently updating recipes and improving the functions of the machine. They listen to its customers and the deliver. If you are in the UK, I could offer you a demo. My email address is cleverlyeasycook@yahoo.com. You won’t miss cooking with 3 or 4 pans and having to do all the washing up ;)

    • @herbertwilliam8480
      @herbertwilliam8480 ปีที่แล้ว

      There is a problem with the marketing method of Thermomix, and the influence method of MLM indirectly causes the price to be too high. The limitations of Cookieidoo are also part of the marketing strategy. There are many TM alternatives on the market today, Tokit is one of them. I have learned that the brand has a reasonable operating profit and is very cost-effective.

    Thank you for this unbiased reviewI really appreciated it....like yourself I am a free cook and baker and like to do my own thing and I don’t really want to be locked in to Cookidoo...I also don’t really want to keep paying for someone to tell me how to cook..the other new functions are great and as this is my 3rd Thermomix I can see the improvements as they have gone along but there is not that much difference between TM5 and TM6 I actually thought there would be more difference in saying that I am still happy that I purchased my new TM6 even if it’s just for the quietness..lol😂😂😂

      I am very busy with work and especially need an automatic cooking machine. Half a year ago, my chef friend gave me a Tokit omni cook. He said Tokit is very practical, more cost-effective than TM6, and doesn't require any subscription fees or extras.

  • @williamlee7782

    Hi all. I just discovered the Thermomix and it struck my curiosity. May I ask users what benefits one can gain from using an Instant Pot 6P (with the souse vide function) and a Ninja Blender with the food processor attachment? That's the combo I have right now. I steam my food either in the IP or over the stove. The IP also have a fermentation mode which is how I make my yogurt though I proof my dough in the oven set low or just at room temperature. Is it just the set recipes function that make this item shine?
    I'm moving to another country from 120V to 110v so I can't bring my IP and Blender with me. Was wondering whether the Thermomix will be a good option despite the higher costs. I also believe that the Ninja Blender doesn't mill as well as the Thermomix.

    Thermomxi should come out with one, where the settings are set automatically.

    Thank you so much for the candid and thorough review, Sophia!! I got so excited when I first heard about the TM6 that I was considering *finally* replacing my trusty TM31, but now I'm thinking of keeping it. I love, love, love the extra precision of the TM6, especially the scales -- as I'm sure you remember, the TM31 goes in 5g increments up to 100g, then switches to 10g increments -- and the extra temperature control is nice, too. And I'd love to make honeycomb, yum. But I'm really fond of my TM31 with all its buttons and simple display; it has all the bells and whistles I really need, so I'm thinking of just upgrading it with as many compatible TM6 accessories as I can.
    Speaking of which, do you happen to know whether the TM6 MC fits the TM31? If yes, I will buy it as soon as it's available. I'm also going to pick up the TM6 spatula. (I already have the TM5 butterfly, which whips so much better than the original.)

    • @sophiapeace
      @sophiapeace  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      So glad I could help. I’m so sorry but I don’t know whether the TM6 mc fits the tm31 off the top of my head. I have a feeling the opening on the tm31 is smaller but i would have to measure it.

      @claudiaw9246 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@sophiapeace If you could measure the opening on the TM6, that would be most helpful! Then I would just have to measure my TM31 to see if it's big enough. I guess the other question I have is whether the new MC threads into the TM6 lid, in which case it wouldn't work with the TM31 even the openings are the same size.

    Thank you very much for doing such a good review of the Thermomix TM6. As a consequence of your honest and objective comments together with some other online reviews, I have now decided NOT to purchase the TM6. I attended two demonstrations locally and can see that it doesn't chop veg, but pulverises them. Additionally, fermenting is also an area of interest for me and you pointed out the TM6 doesn't do well. So, thanks very much, you helped save me from an expensive mistake. Paul

    This is a great review. I've never had any Thermomix model. I also don't like the idea of being bound by the Cookidoo recipes and I don't want to pay for the subscription every year. I wouldn't mind paying one year and then keeping that set of recipes and never updating them. I also think it's ridiculous for them to charge extra for the blade cover (for sous vide and slow cooking) when the unit costs $2100 already in Canada. It's not even the cost, it's the principle. I also don't think that it will sear meat before stews properly even though it can go up to a higher temperature now than previous models and I almost always do that when I'm making any sort of braised dish. And then the cost is just a bit too high to seem worth it. For me, it could replace a number of other appliances, but it wouldn't total up to $2100 worth.

    • @SquidandCatAdventures

      @Terrey Yulianna Yes! I wound up buying a Tokit too. Great to hear it is working for you for your carmelizing. Tokit also made the mixing bowl wider at the bottom for better high temp cooking (like "stir fry" too). Having a good time with mine. Steamer set (added accessory) also has a great capacity because of the two levels inside. Enough for plenty of dim sum.

      Here's the thing...I can start my pressure pot from the garden and get notification on my cell when my one pot meal is ready. It adds convenience and if my pressure pot is going to blow it won't do so in my face. Kidding aside, smart appliances allow remote notification and control of the appliance. It's handy for some uses. The upgrades from TM5 are "good" but this could have given an extra reason to upgrade and secondly the TM6 already connects to my password encrypted home network, they could have took the extra step and have it connect to other devices on the network. As for risks, I have kids and drive to work everyday so I know there are risks everywhere.

    I think people are misleaded by all the additional functions.. Devices like the thermomix, magimix cook expert or kitchen aid cook processor are incredible at making emulsifications, sauces, pastes for curries but i would stay away for browning carbs. Also thermomix locks much functionality behind it's presets. Magimix and kitchen aid doesn't. I know they're trying to market these machines to novice cooks but i think going back to basics and just use a frying pan or sauteuse is a better way and more likely more tasteful way for cooking carbs. But as mentioned earlier: Sauces, pastes, veloutés or purees will help out anyone greatly in machines like these.

    An amazing machine to be sure, but as somebody who also loves to cook, I won’t be buying this. This would be great for people who are not confident cooks who need that hand holding or to expand their repertoire. I find the babying thing in quite a few of these new devices eg google home hub recipe functions that only let you use recipes from certain providers. It’s frustrating when the hardware is so capable! A lot of the issues could be remedied by a software function or a new accessory which just stirs rather than chops as well.

    TM31 is the best, built like a tank, no fancy features that can complicate things, gets the job done just as good as TM5/6 and it much cheaper. A second hand one is 500 euro in Denmark and it will last you 20 years or more. When it comes to what really matters TM31 is best bang for your buck, TM5/6 is also a good investment but I just don’t see the value in paying 1000 euro exta for a display with some recipes or a 160 degree frying function instead of the usual varoma (120 degree Celsius). I’ve had my TM31 for 9 years now and works like the first day I bought it.
