Apart from that my osim Genie Junior steam cleaner helps me to keep the dustmites and dirt at bay even in the kitchen!

Hi Mindi

I have the Phillips Cucina- food processor and it is good although I am a die hard fan of Braun-all my other gadgets are Braun. (I cant live without my braun airpot that boils 1.5 litres of water in 1 and 1/2 minutes)

About the osim Genie, I have the small size one and the weight would be about 5 kg in its full capacity, but they have rollers underneath the tank , so no need to carry. It is good for me as I am allergic to dustmites. But nothing can beat a full time maid who does her work efficiently.

thanks abhi for the info....

hi friends,

My hand mixer is my favourite cool gadget as i make fluffy coffee (cappucino like) and sprinkle choco powder on top and relax to refresh myself.

Hi all,

I would also like some info on the food processor, as I am planning on buying one. Does anyone from US have it, which brand and is it useful for day-to-day?

My fav gadgets are my ultra (to grind idli/dosa/uthappam/adai/wadai) batter and ofcourse the usual mixie and microwave... hey make cooking so much simler and easier.
I make rice also in the microwave and it comes out very well.
