    you can put it in the dishwasher work it hard do anything with it its a machine that no other can compete with. I have a Cuisinart, a kitchenaid and several magimix cause we have a restaurant and honestly its the strongest the parts are the best they never break and its really easy to get one even for the oldest models if you ever need to. You must try it for making dough and tough things in it to see what its really worth

    I've had a Magimix Pattisier for 3 years now, the plastic is different because it will not warp in the dishwasher. At all. All the parts are made and manufactured in France, which is nice, and it comes with a 25 year warranty on the motor from a company that's been around since the beginning.
    The big pieces of your onions were sticking to the side of the bowl, and not processed further than the first pulse.

    I really enjoyed this review on the Magimix. Thanks so much! While I really like my Breville Souse Chef, last year I bit the bullet and purchased a Robot Coupe R2 Dice Ultra for its stainless steel bowl and quick dicing features. My R2 Dice Ultra is now my favorite countertop appliance, and worth every penny I paid. I think that whoever purchases the Magimix when it's on sale, will very much be getting their money's worth as compared to Cuisinart.

    I had the cuisinart when it first came with many accessories in the 80s, it was a perfect addition for a young military family. I bought the Williams Sonoma 3200xl because I am a family of one. Ultimately, I purchased the juicer and puree optional kitd on clearance and the msgimix demo at Williams Sonoma. Their retail was 349 in stainless. I purchased for 299 as demo and 30 percent off. The total cost was 240. The accessories were 99 each reduced to 41 each. Beware when you purchase their optional attachments, you must purchase for your specific model.

      I still have the Japanese Cuisinart from Williams-Sonoma that I got in 1988. I'm toying with the idea of replacing it with a Magimix but I don't know . . . I read a few years ago that those Japanese Cuisinarts were the best ones ever made (who knew?); that was when Robot Coupe had stopped distributing Cuisinart home-use food processors.

    Another thorough review. I had naturally assumed it would've aced all the tasks put to it, and been on top of the ratings; so it was a bit of a surprise to see it slip a little below the Breville. The tomato slicing was particularly disappointing. (I own the Breville 16-cup Sous Chef, so am acquainted with its performance first hand). A couple of things you didn't mention was the [apparent] lack of a bowl gasket - that can help contain liquids. Also, this design continues using a bowl with an open center permitting the motor shaft to protrude through it, as opposed to a sealed bowl with an integral post, as is used on the Breville and some others. This allows for a greater amount of liquid accumulation in the bowl without any leaking or spilling through the center.
    Thanks for another interesting review.

      I have had several food processors over the years, and find that a Robot Coupe R2 series are the easiest to clean. At least, for me. They cost a lot of money, but you only have to cry once. If your budget is more limited, then a Magimix may be what you are looking for. The one in this video has a lot more simplicity than the Breville Souse Chef, which some would find to be more complicated.

    I am not seeing where this can peel potatoes at all where the Breville can with extra accessories. Is there a blade for that? Just curious, I think I’d rather have the Breville. I was not impressed with that tomato slicing. I was thinking a C for tomato slicing

    • @cnnw3929
      @cnnw3929 4 года назад

      No potato peeler attachment is offered for the Magimix. The Breville 'tater peeler works extremely well, and that's what I use when I need to peel a sack so I can boil them, and not have them go to waste! :)

    Great Review! Seems like a good machine. I am wondering: could you do a comparison of making dough in a stand mixer vs. making it in a food processor? I habe been using a food processor for dough making almost all my life. Now I bought a stand mixer and I don’t know if I’m happy: everything takes so much longer. So I might just go back to using the food processor for making dough in literal seconds. What do you think about the quality?

  • @rowenas6110
    @rowenas6110 4 года назад +9

    The plastic used in this food processor can’t be compared to Breville, Cuisinart or KitchenAid or other mainstream brands out there. Its much better. It’s not made from China crap like the others. The price is steep but given its reliable good quality, it’s worth it. I’ve been using my Magimix for almost 10 years now and no complaints 👍🏼

  • @MarkHernandez62024
    @MarkHernandez62024 Год назад +1

    Interesting review. There a very few rules w/food processors. But Amy did what a lot of people do, she overfilled the bowl with the parsley. In all applications, the food needs room to toss (in any of the bowls or machines), same with mixers, blenders, pressure cookers etc. many people overfill them. If she had used a larger bowl or left out a bit of the parsley, she would have gotten a better result. I have to admit her tomatoes did look a tad uneven/rough; I don't know why but there is a little finesse needed between brands. In all videos I've seen, the Magimix results are noticeably superior, so I don't know what's going on here. I wish she had made dough, that would have been interesting to see.

    • @valentinaorange

    Hi, thank you for the reviews. This is actually one of the only models we can get in Europe. The test winners Breville and Cuisinart are not available here.
    I was disappointed to see tomato slicing not that great.
    But I think you are doing it wrong, slicing and dicing are only in the medium bowl according to the instructions, it seems it will stabilise the blade.
    Could you try some tomato slices in the medium bowl and comment on the results?
    Thanks

    • @chtsv
      @chtsv 4 года назад

      I'm pretty sure the problem with the tomato slicing was that the machine spins very quickly. Amy didn't push hard enough, so the machine did a full revolution before the tomato was pushed down to the bottom for a full slice. So, even though the tomatoes where gone in the blink of an eye, they should have been gone even quicker, and the slices would be 4mm thick.

    thank you amy for your vids. have to comment re breville plastic....very low quality.
    i have had the breville for a couple of years...and have to say, their quality now stinks.
    their plastic keeps on breaking. i have had 2 of the large bowls get stress cracks.
    i can barely push the spindle on for the blades...perhaps the stress cracks makes it a tad wider at the bottom to do this. that said, i have to get my hubby to wrangle the spindle off...it really is a nightmare.
    check amazon 1 star reviews...they have the same issue. plus most of the time breville doesn't have the bowl in stock to replace it. currently i have 2 bowls w/cracks and of course, the liquid during processing leaks all over the place.
    also, food gets stuck in the handle. i didn't notice this at first, but man i have all kinds of food stuck in the handle that i cannot get out...not so hygenic.
    i loved it at first....but the quality isn't what it used to be.

      We don't recommend putting in the dishwasher because it can eventually crack the plastic. The directions specifically state to turn off the heated drying (well that's a no-go for us right there). It could also dull the blades as knives in general should never go into a dishwasher. The more you spend, the more you want to protect them.

      @@EricLearnstoCook I don't agree with the judgement about the plastic. I have had a Magimix for several years (I'm in Europe) and have always put my bowls in the dishwasher and washed them on a pots and pan cycle on 167F. That is in a dishwasher with a hidden heating element, so you may not want to put the bowls in a bottom rack when the element is exposed. The plastic is a bit flexible, but that doesn't mean it's less durable. For the rest great review! Thanks!

  • @postholedigger8726

    The MAGAMIX motor is an AC induction motor and not a DC motor. Your Kitchenaid Stand Mixer uses a UNIVERSAL MOTOR which will run on AC or DC. AC induction motors induce a magnetic field into the rotor. A DC or UNIVERSAL motor has a switching device called a commutator. Electricity is fed to the commutator through carbon contactors called brushes.

    Hello Amy, I left a comment for you about Magimix some years ago. At the time you were unfamiliar with the brand. It was such a surprise to see this review today. I just wanted to let you know I bought the 5200XL it was awful, really cumbersome to use. The only good function is the dough blade, but the machine vibrates so much it can fall of the working surface. The slicing and grating is poor and also messy. The two pushers are a pain to use and cleaning the machine is time consuming with a lot of parts. The plastic is very flimsy and they advise not to put it in dishwasher. Overall I disliked it and the company who made it had shockingly bad service. They kept contradicting my comments and made dumb suggestions. However, I read many people had bad experiences like me.
    Glad you're still doing your great reviews. Love xx
