    Works well but broke apart in baby's food
    I registered for and received this blender for my baby shower. I've used it only a handful of times and actually think it's pretty useful and handy. Except this past week made applesauce for my baby and found this large chunk of plastic that broke off the blender and fell into her food! I almost fed that to the baby! I'm not overly hard on the device, have barely used it and only hand wash it, yet this happened. I'll be contacting the company over this.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Very quik and easy to clean, a must have for a busy mom...
    Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2009

    I bought this shortly after my little girl was born 2 years ago.
    I wanted to start her on home made food and not food with preservatives. What I loved about this is how easy is to clean the procesor(specialy the blade). With a regular blender it's a chalenge to clean properly the blade and you have to unscrew the hole thing to get to the blade. It's small and you can only make small quantities of food at a time, but its perfect for your baby's first foods(banana's, carrots, sweet potatoes, sweet peas,...etc, and an easy and quick clean comes very handy when you have to clean it 3 to 4 times/day.
    It takes a while to get use to it. I noticed someone else had complained about the cap being stuck, you just have to figure out how it works and not put pressure when you try to open. I wish they would design that different, but once you get the feeling of it you will have no problem. I use mine for more than a year every day 3-4 times/day, and after a year the motor stop working. I bought another one after that. I still highly recomend it, just because for that one year it work great and I got my money worth for it.

    If you are a busy mom, and you need something easy to clean and use, then buy it with confidence, you will love it. I will also recomend " Jack La Lanne" power juicer for an easy to clean and use juicer.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Money well spent. :D
    Reviewed in the United States on November 25, 2014

    I love this food mill. Small and mighty is the way to go. This doesn't take up much space on the counter. I am able to steam and puree anything for my six month old son. This food mill is a god send to any parent on a budget. The mill will pay for itself in no time.

    One large carrot steamed and pureed produced 8oz
    One medium sweet potato gave me 16oz
    Three medium bananas pureed came out to be 16oz

    Over all, it is much cheaper to make your own purees rather than spend on premade jared foods. I did that with my first child and ended up spending well over 150 each month just to feed my child. I can spend a fraction of that now thanks to this food mill.

    This mill is a bit on the loud side but that isn't any thing for me to complain about, my old blender is just as loud if not louder. This mill is also 110V so it can only be used with American/Canadian outlets. My only con is the way the mill opens. There is a place where the top locks in with the cup. You have to squeeze that in in order to take the top off. Found that out the hard way after spending far too much time trying to open it the normal way of turning the locking mechanism. I highly recommend this to any new parents and as a option for a baby shower gift.

    I am buying the Kidco Babysteps Electric Food Mill for the 3rd time because it is so great (the first I lost while traveling and the second I somewhat melted). I have used it for each one of my baby's first foods prep. I have used it to puree fruits, vegetables, and meats for my babies.
    Pros:
    *Quick to process food
    *Easy to use
    *Easy to clean
    *affordable
    Cons:
    *the plastic bowl part becomes very maleable when heated (I boiled it once to sanitize it and it went from being round to having a flat side where it lay against the pot I boiled it in)
    *not so easy to process meat (no matter how much water I added, I could never get a smooth puree when I used this mill for chicken - always came out as a thick paste).

    I personally don't need a food processing "system." I use regular kitchen products to steam/bake the foods that I use this mill to process (you can cut any fruit vegetable in half, put it in a pan with some water and cook it in an oven or mini convection oven - usually takes 15 minutes or less. I don't recommend a microwave steamer because microwaves kill most of the nutrients in the food - hence why you are not supposed to microwave breast milk).

    The reason I bought a baby food processor instead of just using my regular food processor is to make sure that no unwanted ingredients/particles ended up in my baby purees (like peach puree with garlic after taste). Given that my children have food allergies I am even more sensitive to separate food prep now.

    This electric mill is great because it has sharp blades that make quickly puree the food (consistency depends on how much water you add and how long you press the button for). It is really easy to rinse out, and it is much cheaper than other baby food making devices currently on the market.

    I purchased this item for my son who has a feeding disorder. At the time I had to puree pretty much all of his foods. It worked fine and did what it was supposed to do. I liked that it was very compact.

    I used it about once a week. Alittle over a year after I brought it it died. The engine makes a sound but the blade doesnt turn. It wont work at all. I ended up purchasing a regluar food processor. I would not buy this again. When purchasing small elec like this one would expect that it would last for longer than a year. Very disappointed.

    2.0 out of 5 stars product has SIX pieces, difficult to clean, use, not worth it
    Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2012
    Verified Purchase
    the only reason i'm giving this two stars is that it actually does puree foods, especially meats, which i found important. this is only accomplsiehd with the turbo setting, though. i thought i read that it had 3 pieces, so i thought it would be easy for clean up, but really, there are 6 pieces: rubber stand, actual bowl, blades, safety clip over blades, lid, and motor. it's also going to be a pain to clean because i can see how a lot of food will get stuck in the blade and safety clip and it would be impossible to clean unless you went through with a pipe cleaner. there are tons of little nooks and crannies for mold to build up and that it is not what you want to use to puree your baby's food. also, i pureed rice and veggies with some broth and all the hot broth came splashing out of it, so it isn't even rubber tight.

    i just don't recommend this product. i've tried the beaba, the boon mush, now the kidco mill, and none of them surpasses the livart mini blender. it's kind of like a magic bullet but of much superior quality. i would recommend using something of the sort, there are only two pieces to clean - the blades, and the cup. i make all of my own baby food and haven't found anything that works better.

    i'll be returning this, also.
