Kenwood New York Smoothie Maker

The few months before Christmas are always a nightmare with advertisements on the television for gift ideas. Last year was a bit different though. I saw an advertisement not once, but about twenty times for the new Kenwood Smoothie maker. It really caught my eye because it looked good with it’s silver and black colour and also as a family we are quite partial to the odd smoothie or too. Yes, before you say it, I know that these things are sometimes a con, but I really wanted one and dropped numerous hints. Christmas Day arrived and no smoothie maker so I dropped heavier hints and on my birthday I was presented with a huge box from the children in which was my ...  Read the complete review

At Christmas I like to buy my son and his partner a joint present as well as something personal. The joint one I rather prefer to ask them what they would like as it is often something that would be useful when Adam has qualified in his trade, Lisa has finished her university degree and they can finally afford to move from my home into one of their own. Last year when I asked them what they wanted the reply was a ?Kenwood New York Smoothie Maker?. My first reaction was to explain that in my opinion it was simply a glorified liquidiser and I already had one of them on my food possessor. Of ...  Read the complete review

Silence in Court. All please stand. Members of the Jury today you must decide if the case against the Kenwood New York Smoothie maker stands. Is it guilty of being noisy, too large and too expensive? To sum up the case of the prosecution :- 1.The machine being used in a downstairs kitchen can wake people up whilst sleeping in the upstairs area of a semi-detached house, (this might be classed as something in its defence!) It sounds far too noisy even using soft fruits and no ice cubes, resembling the sound of a drill and causing strong vibrations. 2.It is too large for smaller kitchens. The machine will not fit under wall units set at ...  Read the complete review

For my birthday (June 2005), I’d asked my mum for a Kenwood New York Smoothie Maker. This was mainly because my birthday is in the summer, and I knew I would appreciate the chance to enjoy some luxurious ice-cold smoothies, but I also thought it would come in handy for cocktail evenings, especially as the winter draws near. Being such a nice mum (and me being the only daughter who doesn’t live at home) she agreed quite readily, so on the evening of the 11th (they day after my birthday as I was too “merry” to do anything too soon) I set about unwrapping my present.

I'll be the first to admit that when it comes to kitchen gadgets and gizmos like this one, I usually go in with my eyes closed and - within about a week of having bought it - decide that it's useless and don't use it again. But this one seems to be different (bear in mind, though, that I've only actually had it for five days now). Anyone who's read my review of Innocent's fruit smoothies - and hopefully soon my review of PJ's smoothies, too - will know that I'm a total addict. And let's face it, it's fab to be addicted to something that makes a living out of doing your body such good. So imagine my delight, then, to find such an inexpensive machine that makes ...  Read the complete review
