Dr. Brown's Designed To Nourish Puree and Simple Blender

This is nothing but a stick blender with Dr. Brown's name on it. I did not find that it purees food well. Food sticks to the blade and largish chunks are still left after much mixing. It is not perfect for pureeing food as advertised. I think stick blenders may blend liquid well but not food, unless you are looking for the food to be a tad chunky, which doesn't work for a very young infant. If you want a stick blender, I would recommend researching other stick blenders. Also, I don't understand why this doesn't come with a blender cup (a sturdy, long and thin cup, such as what milkshakes are made in), which is necessary for using a stick blender.

Instead, I find a food mill designed for making baby food is great! A large blender designed for adults does not puree small batches such as is needed for a quick, fresh meal for baby. I bought the Kidco Babysteps Electric Food Mill, and I have had much success with it.

For moms looking for advice like I was, another trick is to make sure the food is softened enough. Do yourself a favor and bake or steam the food long enough so it is quite mushy before even blending. Also, for foods that are more dry, such as some vegetables, adding some warm water or milk may be desired to get the right consistency. Once you get the basics down, you can mix and match many foods!

I am very excited to feed my son fresh, healthy foods with great flavor, and I wish you the best of luck in pursuing this goal!!

I was so hopeful that this blender would work well, but it just didn't puree food smoothly. I ended up sending it back and shortly thereafter got a Cuisinart hand blender that did the trick. Since the Cuisinart was around the same price I'm not entirely sure why this one would be so inferior, but it is. I'm a fan of Dr Brown's products, but unfortunately not this one.

This little machine is a must have for folks who make baby food. It is so easy to clean and store. The only reason I purchased this was because we are temporarily living with my folks while our new home is being built and I packed away my blender. Good thing I did or else I would have never found this! Way better than a blender and much more compact!

I got this to puree my turtl food, same thing as baby food. First time I used it I TRIED to puree a melon. Easy job usually only this barely even worked, AT ALL. It took AN HOUR and about 20 breaks because the darn thing gets too hot to touch after only a minute and I WISH I was exaggerating. After all that I decided to leave it alone overnight, tried to continue next day and it wouldn't even turn on! Straight to the garbage. I can't think of a bigger waste than this. Can't even handle a melon, pathetic and Dr. Brown should be ashamed to have his name on such crap!
