A topic was started on Forum Thermomix (mostly UK and Australian) earlier and I thought folks here might be interested.

Apparently Williams-Sonoma has an "exclusive" on Cuisinart's Soup Maker/Blender which is now getting some press here.

It has been on YouTube videos in the UK for a year and there is now some speculation that is will be competition for the Thermomix.

I don't think so, even though it purports to do some of the same tasks but I can't see it doing much dough kneading or etc.

Williams-Sonoma is offering it for #199.95, considerably less than the suggested price of $365.00.

Thermomix Blogger has more information on her blog.

The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass!" Terry Pratchett

I saw a mention of this on another soup board and wondered about its relationship to the Thermomix. As the owner of a TMX21 I know there really is no competition but it is a very interesting development. The recipe book that accompanies this device is certainly adaptable to a TMX.

Helene, aka Thermomix Blogger has posted an update to the original post with detailed comparisons between the Soup Maker and the Thermomix.

I'm thankful that we have someone who keeps on top of these things and is willing to expend the effort to keep us informed.

If the Cuisinart proponents keep up with the comparisons to Thermomix, in my opinion this is only going to widen the market for Thermomix. :biggrin:
