That's interesting. Do you think the pricing difference between this and a regular Bamix is largely because of different markets? Like the way there was no such thing as a sub-$1000 immersion circulator before the companies discovered cooks?

 

Or is there something inherently expensive in a rotor-stator mechanism? Or does the motor itself need to be much more powerful?

 

The rotor stator generator is the expensive part.  The motor is least of the cost.  The motor has to be high RPM but little power is required.

Actually the motor on most I see are actually a Bamix.

 

Oops - I see I'm stating the obvious.
