RELATED: Best Baby Food Makers


The Skinny

The Cuisinart BFM-1000 is the best all-in-one option we tested. This easy to use, easy to clean product offers great puree quality with regular smooth consistency for most food types. The only reservations for this unit are the health and safety metric where it earned the lowest score for the group. This score is a direct result of plastic components and an impossible to clean steam tank that users remarked is so hard to clean it always seems a bit "gross" and only gets worse over time. If your goal is a set and forget food maker that "does it all" for you then we recommend the Cuisinart. Still, if you share our concerns about plastic or hard to clean tanks we think you can save over $100 by choosing the Sage Spoonfuls Puree and Blend and cooking your food on the stove top.

REASONS TO BUY

Our Analysis and Test Results

The Cuisinart baby food maker is the best all-in-one option we tested in this review.

Credit: BabyGearLab Staff

Cuisinart introduced its first food processor to America is 1973 and was made popular by Julia Child felt the processor was a "revolutionary Kitchen appliance." Cuisinart's late founder, Carl Sontheimer appreciated Child's support and pitch that the food processor was a quick and easy way to make "fine food and healthy dishes." Now under the management of the Conair Corporation Cuisinart continues to be a popular name in kitchen appliances and strives in their mission to help you "Savor the Good Life®."


Performance Comparison

This comparison chart shows the overall scores for each food maker tested in this review including the Cuisinart (in blue). You can see at a glance that the Cuisinart is the top scoring steamer and blender, with the only higher scoring product being puree only options.

The information below includes details on how the Cuisinart performed during testing compared to the competition.

The Cuisinart offered relatively consistent quality in puree with the majority of food types we tested.

Puree Quality

The Cuisinart earned an 8 of 10 for puree quality tying with the Sage Spoonfuls Puree and Blend, an Editors' Choice winner.

Given that baby's first food should be smooth throughout and devoid of chunks and pieces we tested a variety of foods and compared them to other product results while also looking for larger pieces or failure to blend.

Whole grains of rice can be seen in the Cuisinart puree of rice. This was a common occurrence in the all-in-one options with rice.

The Cuisinart has the most consistent puree smoothness of any of the steam/blender combos leaving fewer chunks and larger pieces than the competition. The only real hiccups in the puree process came with bananas and avocado that took longer to reach smooth consistency than the competition and rice and pasta that didn't blend very smooth and still had intact whole grains of rice visible.

Sweet potatoes blended smooth in the Cuisinart with no chunks making it perfect for baby's first foods.

The blending of Kale was really more like a chopping or what you'd expect from a general food processor, but the remainder of the food items we tested, 21 in all had a nice smooth consistency that we were able to consistently achieve.

The Cuisinart is easy to use earning a second place score for the ease of use metric thanks in part to an intuitive, simple, one knob design.

Credit: BabyGearLab Staff


Ease of Use

The Cuisinart earned a 7 of 10 for ease of use, which is one point below the high for the group.

Ease of use impacts your out of the box and daily experience. If a product isn't easy to use or requires constant manual reference we think parents will eventually give up and forget making baby food in favor of ready made food in a jar.

With only one knob and two clearly defined settings, it is hard to go wrong with the Cuisinart's user interface.

Credit: BabyGearLab Staff

The user interface on the Cuisinart is fairly intuitive, and many parents will be able to operate it with only a quick overview of the instructions. However, the Sage Spoonfuls Puree and Blend and the Baby Bullet are both simpler and can probably be operated without instructions.

The Cuisinart is a self-contained unit where everything stores onboard so there are no parts to lose.

Credit: BabyGearLab Staff

The Cuisinart has three settings, steam, blend, and bottle warmer which means you can use it before baby moves on to pureed food, which might make the higher price more tolerable. The unit has seven parts to assemble before use, but cooking and pureeing food is relatively quick compared to the competition. It has a four cup capacity, which is the second largest container capacity for the products we tested.

The steam water tank and the bottle warmer are the same compartment. The switch on the front has two options of steam or chop which means parents only need help with how much water is required and how long to blend. The bottle warmer won't fit short, squat bottles, so parents will want to check their bottle size, before relying on this unit for heating liquids.

This product has a similar problem as many of the other all-in-one options that the blending feature has a time limit to avoid overheating the motor. However, the limit for the Cuisinart is better than most. It is not recommended to run the chopping feature continuously for more than one minute at a time. For best results, the manual suggests a 20-30 seconds rest time between cycles; something parents will have to count on their own. We aren't sure why so many of the food makers require a rest or intermittent blending when many blenders can be run continuously for several minutes, but it feels like a design flaw to us and not that useful for busy parents juggling multiple things at once.

The Cuisinart suffered in health and safety being made almost entirely of plastic components that contact baby's food. Studies indicate that even BPA-free plastic can potentially leach into food products, which gives us pause on any cooking vessel made of plastic.

Health and Safety

The Cuisinart earned a 4 of 10 for health and safety. This score is the lowest in the group and hurt the Cuisinart's overall score significantly.

The Cuisinart has plastic components that hold, heat, and blend your baby's food. We have concerns about plastic (even BPA-free plastic) that it could potentially leach chemicals into the food as indicated in some studies. This potential is increased when plastic and food are heated. In our tests, the first several uses of the Cuisinart resulted in food with a strange metallic taste. We ran it multiple times both with and without food items, and while the taste decreased, it was still present after five complete cycles. We would prefer the work bowl be made of glass so that the major plastic component was eliminated from the equation.

We also have concerns over the water tank used for steaming. The tank itself is difficult to see into and near impossible to clean. Amazon user comment that the tank gets gross over time no matter how you attempt to clean it and this could lead to mold, rust or other bacteria build up that could affect baby's food. We prefer tank designs that are open, visible and easy to clean without nooks and crannies where things can grow and hide.

The bottle warmer component of the Cuisinart baby food maker is the same as the steam tank.

The Cuisinart has some nice safety features designed to prevent steam related burns and coming in contact with moving blade parts. This product has a "bladelock" system that locks the blade in place when the work bowl is not locked onto the base, and the cover has a release button that must be used to remove the work bowl which prevents the unit from turning on. Also, cooking and blending take place in the same bowl so there is no potential for burns that can happen when transferring food from one container to another like some of the other all-in-one products we tested.

The Cuisinart parts are easy to clean and dishwasher safe. We recommend hand washing to prolong the life of the plastic and limit potential degradation from repeatedly heating plastic.

Credit: BabyGearLab Staff


Ease of Cleaning

The Cuisinart earned a 7 of 10 for ease of cleaning. There are two components to cleaning including daily after use clean up and regular maintenance of the steam tank for descaling of mineral deposits. This is something you don't need to do when using the blend only style of baby food maker.

The components that come into contact with food are all dishwasher safe. BabyGearLab recommends you hand wash the parts anyway to avoid possible degradation that can happen over time with the heat involved in dishwasher cleaning. This can prolong the life of the unit and help prevent possible chemical leaching.

The manual also outlines descaling of the tank with vinegar and water on a monthly basis or more often if necessary. Once again, we'd feel better if we could actually see inside the tank and long term users on Amazon report the tank can get "gross" over time because you can't see into it or properly clean it with any kind of utensil. This product should also be run through a complete cook cycle without food after cleaning with vinegar to limit the taste of vinegar in baby's food.

6 Best Baby Food Makers to Buy

"Pampers may collect a share of sales or other compensation from the links on this page if you decide to shop through them."

So, you've decided to make your own baby food—what a great idea! Not only might it save you some money in the long run, it can also be healthier than some store-bought varieties. It will be a whole lot easier to make your own if you have a baby food maker. We asked thousands of Pampers Parents to vote for their favorite baby food makers; here are the results.

What Is a Baby Food Maker


Factors to Consider When Buying a Baby Food Maker

We asked Pampers Parents what their top factors were when choosing the best baby food maker:

  • Safety.  Of course, safety is the top concern. When looking for a baby food maker, make sure that all the parts are free of lead, BPA, and phthalates—all of which may be harmful to your baby. Most of the machines on this list are BPA-free. It's also worth checking that the product hasn't been recalled.

  • Ease of use. A baby food maker should make your life easier, not more difficult, so the simpler the machine is to operate the better. The BEABA Babycook Plus claims it can be operated with one hand and one touch. That is definitely a good selling point.

  • Easy to clean. Some Pampers Parents noted that they preferred hand-washing to sticking the parts in a dishwasher. So that's something you might consider. Most of the products on our list can safely go in the dishwasher if that's what you’d rather do.

  • Durability. You'll want something that can stand up to all the work you'll need it to do. A powerful motor and a sharp blender blade are crucial. If you're not a fan of a plastic work bowl, you might like a model that has a glass work bowl, like the Baby Brezza Glass Baby Food Maker.

  • Size. The baby food maker's size and footprint is important for many Pampers Parents, especially for those with not much room to spare in the kitchen. Although the Duo Meal Station Food Maker takes up a fair amount of counter space, models such as the Sage Spoonfuls Baby Food Immersion Blender can work in tight spaces, too, and can even be transported if you're traveling with your baby.

  • Included accessories. Consider what extra add-ons come with the baby food maker you’re thinking about and decide if you’d need to purchase additional equipment. Most of the products on this list include nothing more than a spatula and/or an integrated measuring cup. However, the Nuby Garden Fresh Mighty Blender includes an array of accessories like storage cups and a freezer tray.

  • Price. Affordability is always something to consider. Lower-priced products may not have all the bells and whistles compared to the more expensive ones, but they still get the job done. You don’t need to break your budget to get a great baby food maker with basic functionality. Prices for the products on our list range from under $40 (the Sage Spoonfuls Baby Food Immersion Blender) to almost $200 for the BEABA Babycook Plus. You might also consider adding your preferred baby food maker to your baby shower registry.

  • Additional features. A few baby food makers can also warm your baby's bottle or sterilize pacifiers and small toys. This may be the selling point that convinces you to go for one product over the other. On our list, the Duo Meal Station Food Maker can warm a bottle and sterilize, and the Cuisinart Baby Food Maker can warm a bottle.

6 Best Baby Food Makers

Thousands of Pampers Parents voted on the best baby food makers. Discover the pros and cons of each so you can pick the best one for you and your baby. Here are the reviews:

1. Nuby Garden Fresh Mighty Blender

Why pick this one? The Nuby came in as Pampers Parents' top choice in baby food makers for its simple design and practical features that make it easy to start your baby on solid foods.

Most of the baby food makers on this list allow you to steam-cook inside the machine's blender bowl, which Pampers Parents loved. Unfortunately, this isn't an option with the Nuby, which at its heart is simply a blender. Nonetheless, the Nuby does include a steamer basket insert, which you can place in the batch bowl with food and microwave it. That does somewhat address the issue. Although the Nuby lacks the steaming/cooking option, it does make up for it with quite a few add-ons, including a flexible freezer tray that has nine compartments, six food storage containers, two feeding spoons, a spatula, and a cookbook. It includes two different work bowl sizes: a short cup for small batches and a big bowl for large batches, which you can freeze for later.

Highlights: In addition to a regular blade, there's also a milling blade for finely grinding cereals and oatmeal for your baby's breakfasts. All parts are BPA-free. Price*: about $59.99 on Amazon.com Pampers Parents pros and cons:


2. BEABA Babycook Plus 4-in-1 Steam Cooker and Blender

Why pick this one? The Babycook Plus from BEABA is designed so that you can steam two foods at once with easy one-handed operation. This may be just the time-saving feature you're looking for—and the kind of thing you expect from the most-expensive baby food maker on the list. The steam-heating system is powerful enough to cook a variety of foods in under 15 minutes, which the manufacturer claims helps the foods retain their vitamins and nutrients. Simply place the food in the work bowl's steaming basket for cooking, and empty it back into the work bowl for pureeing once it's cooked. It's possible that this two-step process may not be to your liking. Some of the baby food makers on this list allow you to steam and puree in the work bowl without having to transfer the food. Each of the two work bowls has a 4.7-cup capacity, allowing you to prepare quite a few servings of baby food at a time. It includes a spatula, mixing lid/smoothie filter, and a booklet with recipes for homemade baby food. Another neat feature that’s great for busy parents: The machine automatically shuts off when the food is cooked and an audible beep lets you know when it's done.

Highlights: It's available in three colors: gold (pink), white, or cloud (gray). The parts are free of BPA, lead, and phthalates. Price*: about $199.95 on Amazon.com Pampers Parents pros and cons:


3. Duo Meal Station Food Maker 6-in-1 Food Processor

Why pick this one? The Duo Meals Station baby food maker is a beast of a machine. It can steam, blend, warm bottles, sterilize, reheat, and defrost. It can make up to 11 cups) of food at once so you can make large batches of baby food and freeze individual portions for later. Pampers Parents loved that this baby food maker includes two steaming trays so you can cook two different foods on top of one another. Any liquid that remains in the container under the food trays can be used to thin the food you're pureeing, capturing some of the nutrients that escaped during the steaming process. To steam the food, add water to the steamer base on the left side and the LCD screen will let you know with an audio alert when you’ve added enough—no measuring or guesswork needed! When the food is steamed and ready to puree, simply transfer the food to the three-speed blender on the right side for quick work. This sleekly designed machine only comes in gray and doesn't include any additional accessories. So, that's something you may need to take into account.

Highlights: All the attachments can easily be cleaned in the dishwasher. Price*: about $159.99 on Amazon.com Pampers Parents pros and cons:


4. Baby Brezza Glass Baby Food Maker

Why pick this one? This baby food maker from Baby Brezza steams and purees your little one's foods in one compartment so you don’t have to transfer the food from the steamer to the food processor. The four-cup work bowl is made of glass, which appealed to many Pampers Parents who didn't like plastics coming into contact with their babies' food. Pampers Parents also pointed out that unlike plastic, the glass bowl doesn't absorb smells or become discolored from use. The control panel is very easy to use, and features three settings: steam only, blend only, and automatically blend after steaming. The steam tank is easy to fill and remove for cleaning.

Highlights: The baby food maker includes a spatula and recipe booklet. The work bowl and blade are both dishwasher safe. Price*: about $98.99 on Amazon.com Pampers Parents pros and cons:


5. Sage Spoonfuls Baby Food Immersion Blender and Food Processor

Why pick this one? This baby food maker gives you two options for blending your baby's food: You can use the immersion blender attachment or use the mini food processor. This means you can make a small batch in the food processor or blend an entire pot of food using the immersion blender attachment. The whole set is lightweight and easy to transport if you want to take it with you when you travel. It's also easy to clean, as all the attachments can be put in the dishwasher. This baby food maker can puree fruits, vegetables, meats, and even nuts. You can even use it to puree soups, smoothies, and sauces that the whole family can enjoy. The manufacturer cautions that the power buttons shouldn't be held down for more than 30 seconds when you're using the blender as it may cause the motor to overheat, so you’ll need to be extra careful.

Highlights: All parts are free of BPA, phthalates, lead, and PVC. Price*: about $38.99 on Amazon.com Pampers Parents pros and cons:


6. Cuisinart Baby Food Maker and Bottle Warmer

Why pick this one? This baby food maker from Cuisinart is a steamer and food processor in one that also includes a bottle warmer. And the best part is you don’t have to transfer the food between vessels, unlike some other baby food makers on this list. The work bowl hold four cups of food, which means you can make big batches of baby food to freeze for later. The blade inside the bowl stays locked even when you tip the bowl upside-down to get out the last bits of pureed food. Other features include automatic shut-off, which kicks in when all the water has evaporated. There's an easy-to-use dial with an LED light indicator to let you know when the bottle has been fully warmed. The motor is powerful enough to chop and puree a variety of foods.

Highlights: The baby food maker comes with a spatula, an integrated measuring cup to help you determine how much water is needed for the bottle warmer or food steamer, a baby bottle adapter ring for skinny bottles, and a recipe booklet. All materials that come into contact with food are BPA-free. Price*: about $73.99 on Amazon.com Pampers Parents pros and cons:

Metal attachments will help you cook a lot of dishes and make cooking tasks much faster, from churning mousses and crushing ice to making homemade minced meat and signature cocktails.

With high power (1200 W), the manufacturer also took care of safety, so you won’t have to worry about overloading and overheating of the motor either.

How to choose a kitchen combine

A couple of tips for choosing a food combine were given to us Dmitry Kravtsov, a sales consultant of the store Biluir .

Be aware that some food processors are quite hefty machines. Make sure you have space to store them in an accessible place. And if noise is an issue for you, ask for a demo at the store first - some models are significantly noisier than others.

Bowl capacity is the key to a successful purchase. The largest models have a bowl capacity of more than 4 liters, which is enough if you are busy cooking for a small family.

Versatile and efficient, a good food processor will become your indispensable assistant in the kitchen. It can be used to grind cheese, make biscuit dough, baby food puree, grind spices and more. But before heading to the store, consider these factors to make sure you've chosen the best food processor for your business.

Features

Most food processors have only one motor speed, and some have a small hole in the top to allow easy addition of other ingredients. They usually come with a "pusher" that fits into this tube and helps you add larger items to the machine while keeping your fingers safe.

Make sure the machine you choose has a "pulse" button for giving small pulses of power (suitable for coarse grinding or quick kneading of dough). You'll appreciate a smooth touchpad for controls that's easier to clean than raised buttons, and dishwasher-safe parts.

Power

Make sure the machine you choose is powerful enough to handle heavy tasks such as kneading hard dough, chopping raw carrots or chopping hard cheese. For a full-sized processor (9 cups or more), look for a motor with at least 600W.

Size and capacity

Food processors come in all sizes, from tiny 3-cup choppers to 20-cup versions that can function in a restaurant kitchen. Which size is best for you depends on the number of people and the recipes you want to make. Whether you're typically preparing meals for a family of four, or making dough for a single batch, an 11-cup processor is sufficient. If you frequently grind small amounts of herbs or nuts, or make small amounts of sauces, find a processor that includes a small work bowl and blade, or invest in a separate 3-cup processor.

Accessories

Some food processors come with a range of accessories designed to get the most out of your machine. They can include work bowls and blades of various sizes, discs that cut and grate products of various thicknesses. Before you spend extra money on a car with all these "bells and whistles", consider whether you will really use them.
