This is such a great addition to my kitchen appliances. To have one item that'll defrost, steam, pulse and blend baby food greatly helps reduce clutter. I was able to get rid of two other appliances to be replaced by this! As a busy mom, anything to make it faster or simpler is a blessing. If you know, you know. Now the task of making my own baby food seems so much simpler, which means I'll be more inclined to actually do it.
