Magimix - life changing or not?

[Lighteninginabottle27]

Hi there, I currently have an older kenwood kmc010 food processor with a million different bits. I am using it more and more but the coleslaw blade has vanished, I think it broke and I chucked it. I have ordered what I though was a replacement, wrong part came, to cut a long story short I cant get the blades anymore yet as daft as it sounds we eat so much coleslaw and it would be better value and healthier to make my own.

So anyway, I'm considering replacing my 12 year old kenwood with a magimix. I though if I'm going to do it, I'll get the best currently available.

Is it worth it? What do you use the most if you have one?
I've been baking much more, I make soup quite a lot and salads (with coleslaw!!)

I use ours for coleslaw and if I'm doing a lot of chopping, for soup or batch cooking and useful for blending soups, though I find a stick blender better.

Also use it for baking; crumble and pastry and I have done bread dough in it (though normally use my breadmaker). Also breadcrumbs.

I also use it to make things like guacamole, mayo, pesto and hoummus.

I have rubbish hands, so it is quite helpful for me. I leave mine out on the counter all the time, which probably means it gets used more.
