Pros “Smaller than I imagined and fit very easily on the countertop. The sliding drawer made it easy to store and access the accessories. The purée function worked quickly, which made it easy to make baby food in large quantities.”

Cons “I think there might be more durable models out there, and food got stuck inside the spindle, which made it hard to clean.”

Rating 8/10
