I was surprised by how small it actually is, however the product works well. I think the directions need to be more detailed, and come with more specific water amounts to add for the fruits/veggies. The blade is very sharp and works well, I am pleased with the overall performance of the product. I have sucessfully made several meals with the machine. Compared to the significant price break vs. the competitor version of this (which my friend has) I feel I can do all the things with my machine and feel like I got a good value. I am enjoying this product.

Opposite my friends advice I bought this instead of a more expensive Kitchen Aid food processor. I figured half the price half the work right? The processor part has a great blade and is very efficient for it's tiny size.
HOWEVER, I found that is you are making more than 1 or 2 serving for your little one, The steamer has a hard time fully steaming the batch. I found my self running it 2 and sometimes 3 times after "rotating" the food in the steamer. I only had it fully steam something ( half the steamer / maybe half a cup) once... and it was Peas. Each steam session is between 5 and 15 minutes depending on the amount of water required, which is very hard to figure out. I tried the max recommended thinking it was just not cooking long enough and it barely made a difference. Definitely not a time saver
The instructions say to cut food into 1/2 inch cubes, fine for carrot or green beans, but if you have ever cut sweet potatoes or squash this is by no means an easy...Read more

when I first got mine out to use it I thought it was broken because the steamer light wouldn't stay on. Then I looked up FAQ's on learning curve's website and the container that does not have holes in the bottom that looks like it is supposed to hold water is not where you put the water. The water goes directly onto the heating plate. When I was searching online I found a lot of people had this problem, the directions are not very clear. But it does work. The food processor half also makes more smooth baby food than my old food processor. However, the price has jumped for some reason after I purchased mine and I don't know if I would buy one now. And it is a small gadget so you can't make much baby food at a time.
