During its existence, within the walls of Mulinex, there was a place for the appearance of a wide variety of household appliances: vacuum cleaners, hair dryers, bread machines, mixers, microwave ovens and food processors.

The latter type of equipment is a special pride of the French company, which is able to combine the totality of many inventions that have taken place in the history of Mulinex. The function of the mixer, meat grinder, vegetable cutter, juicer - this is the spectrum that fit into the body of just one device.

Features of the Moulinex food processor

At the heart of the distinctive features of Mulinex food processors is ease of use combined with a wide range of features.

Combines of the Moulinex brand are produced at enterprises located in France - the homeland of the described brand, in Germany and Russia. This fact inevitably affects the quality and price of products sold.

Food processors produced within the Russian Federation, for the sake of potential buyers, have a lower price compared to imported counterparts and, more surprisingly, decent quality, comparable to models of European assembly.

For many years, Mulinex household appliances have been laureates of various prizes and awards, including the “People's Brand” award, etc.

What to look for when choosing

Buying a combine is the result of the need for a fast and efficient kitchen assistant. Food processors, like their younger brothers, choppers, have a number of distinctive properties, the presence and absence of which directly affects usability and, as you might have guessed, the price difference.

The three main technical characteristics of this technique include:

  1. The power of the device: varying values ​​in the range from 200 to 1200 W makes it easy to determine which model will take its place in your kitchen. The power of the device directly affects 2 factors: the volume of products processed at a time and their current state: frozen, raw, cooked, etc.
  2. Nozzles are what give the combine versatility. The number of cutting and shredding disks included in the kit varies from 2 to 10 or more. In addition to nozzles, the functionality of the device is affected by the presence of various operating modes, such as: juicer, meat grinder, blender, pulse (jerk) mode, etc.
  3. Bowl and body. In this matter, we, as buyers, are interested in the following data: volume (dimensions) and the material from which this component is made. Plastic bowls and cases, despite their lightness, have less durability. The plus is lower cost.

In addition to these criteria, important parameters are: the speed range, the length of the power cord, the presence of additional devices in the kit, blades, etc.
