Good food for real family life
With four children and a home that travels with us, preparing meals is simply part of the everyday juggle. We appreciate practical ideas that can make feeding a family feel a little more manageable, without turning every meal into a big production.
We don't believe eating well has to mean spending hours in the kitchen. For us, it's also about being thoughtful with ingredients, working with the space and time we've got, and finding a balance that suits family life.
Why Thermomix made our Handpicked collection
Thermomix brings a number of kitchen tasks together in one appliance, including chopping, mixing, cooking and steaming. That versatility is what makes it interesting to us, particularly for people trying to prepare more meals at home without filling their kitchen with separate gadgets.
We're sharing it as something worth exploring, not something every family needs. The right kitchen tools are the ones that genuinely suit the way you live and cook.
One appliance, plenty of possibilities
The current Thermomix TM7 can take on everyday preparation and cooking tasks, from chopping vegetables and mixing ingredients to cooking dishes and steaming different parts of a meal.
For anyone who enjoys guidance in the kitchen, Thermomix also offers Cookidoo, a recipe platform with step-by-step Guided Cooking, meal-planning features and shopping lists. Access to those subscription features comes at an additional ongoing cost, although the appliance can also be used manually.
Making space for what matters
When life is busy, there can be real value in simplifying the ordinary jobs. A practical cooking routine can create a little more space for eating together, getting outdoors or simply enjoying the evening.
We also think it's worth considering the realities before buying: the purchase price, bench and storage space, electricity needs, and how often you'd actually use the machine. That's especially relevant for anyone travelling or living in a smaller space.
It's about how you use it
A Thermomix isn't a requirement for cooking nourishing family meals, and we don't believe any appliance replaces learning about food or being present with the people you're cooking for.
What interests us is its potential to make certain parts of meal preparation easier, whether that's experimenting with new recipes, preparing everyday staples or working towards cooking at home more regularly.
Want to explore Thermomix?
If you're curious, start by looking at what the machine actually does and whether those functions would be useful in your kitchen. Seeing a demonstration and asking practical questions can help you decide before committing to a significant purchase.
In Australia, new Thermomix machines are sold through authorised Thermomix Consultants, who can explain the current options and provide product support.
