So.. having used food processors for 42 years, starting with a Magimix, my over all impressons are this - the motors are generally good - except a Kenwood I once had which burned out after a couple of years - the blades are the problem. My origin Magimix cooked chop parsley so fine it was like dust - in a just a couple of seconds. All the machines I've had since - including Magimix, Kenwood, Bosch (I should explain I lived in 3 different countries hence different machines) are let down by the blades which are either badly made or not sharp enough. The blades now seem to be made from pressed steel and one Magimix set had a grating disc which came off the post and we did a repair on it which worked but the machine was virtually new! The cost of replacing bowls is ridiculous with a new bowl and lid for a Magimix coming in at just under £100.00!!! So obviously you're going to get a new machine but it seems across the board the blades are poor. The only review which mentioned sharp blades on Amazon was the Ninja. So I"m going to John Lewis to compare before I buy. Im surprised you dont mention the quality of the blades in this review because it is the most important feature.
I am not sure this review is impartial. Breville wins, while it is most certainly not the best food processor. Like all other appliances of Breville / Solis / Gastroback / Stollar (all the same) this is a medium quality machine at best. Ask professional chefs which food processor they want in their kitchen at home and they will pick the Magimix 100% for sure. The Magimix is made by the company Robot-Coupe which makes professional food processors for professional chefs in professional kitchens.
@@rogiervdheide I am a happy profesional chef who loves its Breville Sous Chef for more than 10 years now. And I have a strange relationship with my Robot Coupe at work. (I wish I had my Breville at work).
I had the Ninja and was very pleased with its performance for 2 years. A piece on the bowl broke and I had to purchase a new bowl. Still waiting for it to be shipped 2 weeks later. I broke down and purchased a new Vitamix A3500 bender and food processor attachment, and that has worked great so far! I HATED the Sous Chef. Such a hassle for storage. Sold it on Facebook marketplace.
I have a Magimix 5200XL plus the extractor for juicing,and I must say it is the bomb.First I wanted to buy the KitchenAid one,but they advised me against it all cheap plastic,then I saw it up close and it is really miserable.The KitchenAid is only good for mixers
Hello 👋 can you tell me what's the difference between the 6200xl and the cook expert ? I think the cook expert it's a new version of the 6200xñ only with a digital display. I'm really not sure if to get a 5200xl or the 6200 or the cook expert
@@tortillitapascualita5673 With the 6200xl cook expert you can cook like the Termomix, while with the 5200xl you can chop vegetables and knead (depending on the version you buy). Mine was the Premium version (i.e. it had a centrifuge for juices).
@@nutkinnutkin7911 thank you very much! It's a big investment and the shops here only sell the MagiMix Cook Expert, but I don't have money for that one. I can only afford the 6200xl which I hoped would have the same functionality as the Cook Expert.
That's very reassuring. I've had a Japanese Cuisinart (a Williams Sonoma model) since 1988 but I'm always afraid it's going to crap out after all these years. I'm hoping the 5200 XL is a worthy successor because I recently found out that the Japanese Cuisinarts were the best ones ever made, including the ones distributed by Robot Coupe. 🤞🏻
Magimix. I had one for 20 years and then just decided to update it. It still worked perfectly does everything efficiently and it’s easy to clean used to every day for prep and cooking. Without doubt, the best machine may be a little more expensive than others, but you get what you pay for. Then boaters are also guaranteed for 20 years!❤❤
@@jlachorajana446 l am in Jersey Channel Islands. We are British, but not part of Europe. We have a magimix rep who deals with things as most other places do. They have an excellent service online also! Their Guarantee is 20 years! which covers all parts unless it’s something like a worn out bowl ! Which is also available on their British web site or even Amazon. Its heavy because it will not move when under extreme mixing or chopping. Cheaper models are not as good or reliable.
My Breville is awful and I’ve owned two of them! I had to repurchase because the spindle gets stuck and will not come off. My husband has to get his tools just to get it off. He is so frustrated and finally told me to buy a different brand. Magimix is now on my list!
The motor underneath lets off a slight smell and it's a little loud ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxCKuMxLnvr6fJd_M4SE-n7trcGj3zEUHq but considering it's size and how hard it works to do the job, it's sort of expected. I assume the smell will go away over time. Overall, I love this cute little blender. The extra cups and lids are great too!
It's probably just off-gassing. My Nesco Roast-Airs had to be "cured" outdoors for an hour before use their first uses. You could probably run your Magimix outdoors for several minutes to get rid of the smell.
I had a Kitchenaid food processor which was a pain to clean and and not up to scratch . I just got a Magimix 4200 XL and it is very easy to clean, works like a dream and the knives are really sharp. Making peanut butter with the smoothie ring (or whatever you call it) is easy. Pizza dough and dough for shortcrust pastry and scones are easily made. I"ve also bought the orange/lemon press and will be buying the juicer attachment.
Beeville automatic coffee maker cost me $399.00. 3 months later the swinging filter tray wouldn't close. It needed a new spring. The spring isn't available at all. So I called the manufacturer and got no response. What a waste of money. So I bought a moccamaster and it's been going strong for 2 years. Makes perfect gold standard cups of coffee every day. So what happened to the breville coffee maker. I took it to the gun range. Loaded a beta mag into my AR15 and shredded it into 1000 pieces. 😂
It's worth mentioning that Magimix guarantee their motors for 30 YEARS. Show me another brand that does that same - I'm with Magimix all the way, and wouldn't trade my 4200XL in for anything else.
Both of our Breville food processor and coffee machine's outer body started coroading after a year of use. Switched to Japanese appliances and will never look back.
what do you mean? I have a Sous Chef for like 12 years now and a Doble Boiler espresso machine for some 7-8 years and they both still work like they did when new.
@@rp.aguilera They work no issue, but the outer body/the skin that covers the internals looks like we found them in a trash can. They start with small bobbles that look like under car body rust. They body seems to build from alluminium that reacts to moisture and over time detiriorates.
I am a dreamer, no doubt, I was thinkin basically in the chute wide, there are many, but very very expensive, best to put my finger at risk. thanks a lot. good day😄😄😄😄
I am looking to get a new one and while it is costly the Magimix 5200 with all the extras is my choice. It has 3 year warranty on all parts… a 30 year warranty on the motor… and importantly guarantees a 15 year support and production of all parts and fittings. Only reason I need a new one is finally chucked out an old Magimix which my mum had since I was 15… I’m 56. And the motor was still powerful and the broken parts were broken by me dropping them.
Seriously? They don't make the Breville Sous Chef 16 Dice and Peel anymore....! Their newest model is half the size and equally as powerful... The Paradice 9....it comes WITH the dicing blade....it's the best out there... ! At least get the machine and try it out....
I have this Breville peal and dice and I enjoy it completely it’s in my home in California I have the Cuisinart 13 cup in my home in Texas. I have a ninja food processor she still showing in my motorhome and I travel back-and-forth between the two houses bless the Lord. He’s been good to me.

did you choose one?

Forget the saying that you can put the components in the dishwasher. the plastic will take harm and the blades get dull.

Breville's the same
Breville guarantees their motor for 30 yrs...I just watched the video moments ago.
Breville has an amazing espresso machine too. I just got the KitchenAid food processor and was disappointed that the pitcher is plastic.
they are all plastic, lol, unless you go with a $4000 industrial/commercial grade machine.
Kitchenaid best value for price, ease of use, process results

Is there a manual One?
Oh the Breville by far! I’ll never use anything else again
That was disappointing you didn't tell us who the best one was😊
He was counting down to number one. The best overall was the last one.

the dicing blade....it's the best out there... ! At least get the machine and try it out....
The WIRED review of the Paradice 16 was unfavorable
Magimix the best and made in France.

Dont forget the Magimix has a 30 year guarantee..... that would be my pick no brainer
Should have done the comparison with the xl 12 cup ninja food processor for the comparison to be fair
bosch multi 3, under 100 bucks and rocks
I really wonder how good the Bosch is in comparison to the much more expensive ones like Magimix and Breville/Sage?
Which one should I go for?
