 I'm never buying jar food again! Oct 16, 2006
By Amber
"Amber"
This kit has made making my own baby food so easy. The motor is plenty powerful for everything I've put in it. The "turbo" button made me laugh when I first saw it, but is very helpful on harder foods like asparagus. I love that the food that comes out of the ice cube tray is perfectly shaped to fit the feeding dish. It has been pretty easy to get everything out of the tray too. The servings are 2 oz sizes, unlike the other baby food trays that make 1 oz cubes. For me, this is really nice and I bought more of these trays and only use the competitor's trays for ice. The spoon clamps onto the feeding dish, so I am never without a utensil. The manual food mill rocks! I used it on an airplane while flying under high security conditions that wouldn't allow me to bring other food aboard. I was able to make my daughter a great meal from onboard food, serve it to her from the food mill (it acts as a bowl) and the cleaning is so easy, I did it in a coach class bathroom. The carrying-case ensures you have all your parts. I am will now be getting everyone this for their baby showers. I signed on Amazon tonight to buy this for a friend who is expecting and saw no one has reviewed this before. I knew I had to be the first because it really is awesome. If you know anyone who is going to be an organic mom, cloth diapering, natural laundry and the such, this is the perfect baby shower gift.
edited: I noticed others have said that the cubes are hard to get out. Keeping the lid on, turn the tray up-side-down and run it under warm water for a few seconds. The cubes pop right out of the tray. Just twist a little until you hear the cubes hit the lid. Then they are still firm enough to put into zip-loc bags. I make a week's worth of food at a time this way, only cooking on Sundays and I mark the bag with a sharpie, so it writing stays on in the freezer.

 Not worth it! Feb 21, 2010
By Love 5280
At first, I was delighted with this kit. But then reality set it.
1) The feeding dish warped in the dishwasher and no longer closes (it was on the top shelf of the dishwasher). It is now worthless. This did not happen to the freezer trays. DO NOT PUT THE FEEDING DISH IN THE DISHWASHER!
2) I frequently had problems opening the electronic mill after processing food (the lid would get jammed, and I would have to rely on my husband's strength to force open). Also, the second time I washed it in the dishwasher, I noticed a hairline crack in the plastic. It does not affect its performance, but I worry that it is going to completely break anyday.
3) The food mill is very difficult, if not impossible, to take apart to clean.
The electronic and manual food mill are both very effective, so no complaints on the performance front, but I wish I had invested in a regular food processor and plain ice cube trays instead of purchasing this kit.

Must have for moms Mar 19, 2008
By S. Navarro
"New Mama"
I love the mill, it's easy to clean and small enough to carry with me on small trips -although my baby (7mo) doesn't yet like the consistency of the food, it's not very smooth, so I'm still using the food procesor a lot more - and it's also great, again, it's easy to clean and to use.

wonderful product Aug 25, 2008
By CoCo Lee
"Lily"
I use the food processor every day. It is so convinient, efficient and easy to clean. Just make sure to cover it right otherwise the cover will stuck and hard to get it open. other than this, it is a great product. So far, I haven't use the hand mill yet. I will use it later.

Easy to pop out food Oct 20, 2009
By sharon
"sharon"
After reading the other reviews, even the "not so favorable" ones, I decided to by the whole kit anyway. I had no trouble removing the frozen food from the plastic trays. All you have to do is run hot water over the bottom of the tray and they pop out without any trouble - no twisting the tray, nothing like that. It's not rocket science!
