A Chef Tests a 21-IN-1 SMART COOKER | Sorted Food 

Wait are you telling me this is a machine that carefully cooks and constantly stirs ingredients AND BEN DIDN'T MAKE A RISOTTO?!

Jamie trying to eat while Ben talks basically sums up the last 10 years on Sorted hahahaha

As someone with a lot of limitations with cooking due to disability, this could be a very, very helpful thing. Knowing the tech is out there, and that hopefully there are eventually many brands doing this kind of thing which brings the price down, I could see myself being able to cook SO MANY recipes I can't make anymore.

Can we get a round of applause for the food team behind the scenes on sorted. They do some amazing work, and I want to make sure they know that they are appreciated as much as the faces we see in every video.

The fact that Jamie's Wi-Fi password is both his kids names is both the most dad thing and the most Jamie thing I've heard in a while.

Every time Jamie corrects someone's Spanish pronunciation, I wonder if that's still him atoning for the paella burrito that he has now made twice.

Guys, this looks amazing, but does it have a "leave the hob on" mode? Asking for a friend.

This kind of machine is perfect for my mom with MS who loves to cook, but can’t slice, chop, knead.. stir for long periods… etc. Having something where she can still cook her own recipes and healthier foods without all of the physical work, is pretty incredible. I’m definitely going to look into a machine like this for her sometime soon. She already uses a bread machine and loves it.

Could we, one day perhaps, meet the "food team"?

I love how Mike and Jamie use the gadget like it’s Alexa but they named it Ebbers 😂

This seems to be the most useful to someone in a small apartment that wants to try and cook at home but doesn't have the space for a full kitchen

"Just a prototype" My family have had our Thermomix for over 20 years. granted no internet connectivity, but the recipes came in book form. Probably made back the investment several times over just in the reduction of wasted food, because leftovers are so easily recycled into tasty soups. My mum even bought the new model a few years ago when she moved out, and my dad kept the old one.

"This is Barry proof" sounds like a challange to me.

“Very normal home cooks.” I’m sorry, but is Ben representing Sass on behalf of Alastair?

I really appreciate the subtitles so much!!!!! They're always there on like, every sorted video and it's such a relief to press the CC button and not see "English- Auto Generated"

Might be useful for apartment dwellers, tiny homes, dorm dwellers, RV dwellers etc. I do find it intriguing, as though we are getting a glimpse into a futuristic kitchen.

Absolutly looks like a "Thermomix" from Vorwerk. Even the knife looks just like the one in the thermomix

I dont want a omnicook i just want an Ebbers Cooking my Food

11:35 great to see someone from the food team we keep hearing about!

"As opposed to hand puppets" got my instant like, gotta love Ebbers

This feels really useful for singular dishes but maybe not for a few courses. Just because you have to clean the same one bot multiple times and need bowl and plates to hold the different elements. But the ability to set temperature and all the different settings seem quite interesting. Now the question is hold it survives over time. Awesome Video guys :-)

This is a very impressive tool and all, but I don't ever see myself using it. The biggest problem: I don't usually just use one tool in my kitchen. I'll use a foodprocessor here, have something on the boil there, make a quick dipsauce in a bowl, have something else frying, etcetera. If you only have the 21 in one thing, you can only cook one thing at the time. You'll still need all your pans and things on the side. If I have to have pans and other tools on the side regardless, why would I need this 21 in 1 thing? I could see how having a sous vide machine which doubles as a slow cooker could be useful. But I'll still need a seperate blender, I'll still need a seperate scale, etcetera. I'll just buy mysel a few good tools, instead of 1 which tries to do all of the things.

Please make a video about the thermomix to compare with this, I believe it checks a lot of the same boxes

I love that it’s basically a one-pot concept and can complete the cooking for you with the help of manual prep. I can see this being a kitchen assistant while you can focus on preparing other dishes. Level up from a slow cooker/instant pot so I give it 👍👍

I always find myself getting hype about these cool kitchen gadgets, until the price pops up 😂😂

I feel like Jamie's new wifi password is 'EvieFinnLucy'

I just had a flash of Arnold J. Rimmer meeting his demise while yelling "GASPACHO SOUP!" run through my mind as soon as the first course was named. Let's see if any "Red Dwarf" references/jokes happen. Nope. But, I've completely outed myself as a geek.

This (or the thing(s) it copies - learn something new every day!) seems like such a cool idea for so many folx with different kinds of disabilities, maybe people in assisted living or other communal living/kitchen situations, or even teaching kids cooking concepts in a class setting (how to weigh things, how things mix together (how emulsification works etc.). Like so many of your reviews, Sorted, thanks for showcasing something unique that could help lots of different folks!

"Get to know each other. As flavours" Ben, your Babish is showing.

You don’t need the cloche? I can’t see why not. Cloches make everything better. 😉

Good to see tiny glimpses of the food team! Would love to see more!

I am so impressed with this gadget, having you guys review it is the best

2:23 "In case you've wandered off it lets you know!" With that smile. Ben is just the sweetest thing alive

Let me guess Jamie’s new password will be FinnEvie now 😂

I am confused. That is basically the same thing as the “Thermomix” we have in Germany 😁 Households here have had it for yeaaars 😁 is that just a german thing??

Can't describe the immense joy when a new vid pops up, especially when Ebbers is in It!!!!

If they gave it James’s voice to remember him by, I’d buy one like a shot ;)

The Spaff and I connect on a spiritual level where we like massive starters.

So basically this is a cheaper version of the "Vorwerk Thermomix". Over here in Germany there are a lot of knockoffs sold in ALDI or LIDL but this one looks more professional.

I own a Thermomix TM6 model, this is pretty much identical except the Thermomix doesn't do the creepy robot voice. Thank you guys for doing an all-in-one cooking machine video. :)

It looks like a Thermomix with an Android device as the controller. There’s other devices like the Magimix Cook Expert that do similar jobs. The voice I think would get irritating. Updates would be a concern both of the custom system operating it, and security being an always connected internet device.

Do I see another member of the food team that will eventually be brought on to the screen? YES I DOOO AND IM EXCITED!!!

This is pretty awesome. A feature that I'd like to see added to it is being able to go in and say Okay I have eggs, flour, 1lb of leftover hamburger some baked chicken or raw, basically I got a bit here and there and it will search through it's preloaded recipes and show the options you can make.

I love how they obviously read our comments and including the food team and behind the scenes! I love this product too

Me seeing the title: "Smart cooker. But can that thing cook rice tho? -_- Yeah Ben, i am still salty because you trow the rice cooker.

I love how Ben pronunced "Gazpacho" perfectly the first time, and then he tried to correct the pronunciation and he completely botched it 😂 (But thank you for trying to use our pronunciation!)

Jamie's efforts in trying to eat his food hit home for me. Not even 5 minutes before I watched the video my sister had done the same thing to me! 😂😂 This video was really well done!

I would love to see this tested for specifically a university student. This could be so helpful when you are provided a dorm with no kitchen.

Okay but Jamie's password being his kids names is the most adorable and the most Dad thing ever!

I don't know if it's a thing anywhere else but this just sounds like thermomix which many people here in Germany own

Whenever I see these kinds of things, I'm always impressed by the innovation and I can understand how people could use them and even need them in their kitchen, but from my perspective it kind of takes some of the joy out of cooking? Like, I love moving around, having a few pots going on a stove, stirring and tasting and checking temperature as I go, heck even the cleaning as I go so I can finish up and the kitchen isn't a bomb zone. That might just be me and my social/cultural perception and my personal love for how involved cooking can be, but I could never see myself using something like this machine.

I'm currently backing it, looking forward to it even more after watching this video.

Basically this is another Thermomix to take up space on the bench but much cheaper. I've seen similar for about 200 bucks in Aldi I'd rather use a book with the recipe and a gas stove. Just imagine a power blackout halfway through using that gadget. Normal >gadgets

Hi, lovely person in charge of checking comments! Yes, you! Hello! I have a request. Can we bring back Comment of the Week? I miss it quite a lot.

New fan here, I love your videos!! I was very focused until 14:10 cackling my ass off my living room for 15 seconds. I love your videos, I love your guys' energy please keep it up.

I totally would have considered this one if I’d come across it when I was looking for one. I went with the Magimix Cook Expert and I’m very happy with it, but this definitely would have been on my short list. Oh well.

Jamie waiting to eat until after Ben stops talking is just one of the funniest things ever.

Barry must be happy that he can borrow this as there are no hubs to turn on and OFF.. 🤣🤣

Thank you for your excellent and factual review of the Tokit. Being a bit of a gadget freak, I’m lucky to have a Vitamix, ActiFry, etc - and best of all an AGA City 60 ( not a gadget! )- but was very intrigued by your presentation, and after dithering between the Thermomix and the Tokit ordered one a few days ago and it arrived yesterday afternoon. Straight out of the box we had a delicious mushroom soup for supper and it quietly beavered around in the background whilst I prepared the salad main course. My only criticism would be that it’s a little slow on picking up our otherwise excellent wireless - router just one room away and I can use my iPad happily in the back garden, but if the problem persists I can add a repeater to the kitchen area. Thanks again, Andy

I'd be interested to see a stove-sized unit with multiple additional functions/pots. If you're going to have an all-in-one cooker, it should be a full function replacement for the lower-tech version that already exists.

Looks cool, but I see it getting impractical with every dish that requires two components cooked in two different pots, you wold need a good way to keep one warm (and for quite a while, depending on the dish). Also I don't get the novelty aspect, it looks and works just like a Thermomix from Vorwerk, which is so well known here that there are already knockoffs from some supermarkets in-house-brands.

"You're just my puppets...be glad I'm pulling strings."

I wish y'all talked about how cleanup goes with a device like this.

I'm impressed! Heck, I'm gobsmacked!!! All I really need to know how to do is washing the machine. Expensive, but you don't need a blender, mixer, rice cooker, ice cream maker, a food processor, or a large selection of pots and pans.

Calling it: this will stop working if disconnected from the internet, or will not function if it cannot reach the company’s server, after startup.

Nice seeing more of the mysterious “food team”

Looks like an amazing bit of kit and not a bad price for all the appliances in one you are getting along with all the recipe interfaces

It's gone up to just over £1000, I love it!. Please do more testing guys.

Can someone explain how this differs from a Thermomix? Something that has been out for years already? Can't ask on the kickstarter because it's for backers only...

The issue I have with such gadgets - what happens if internet dies, or even worse, the company goes bust and stops supporting and updating it - and you have a $700 paperweight.

I usually cook barebones, cutting board, knife and a cast iron pot, not really into too much clutter in the kitchen, but this is the first bit of eq I've seen that I'm genuinely interested in, especially since it can make it very easy for you to try out new recipes you wouldn't otherwise

This honestly sounds like the future of home cooking. Maybe i missed it but it would be awesome if they have a companion app for your phone so you can have the recipe while shopping. If they support a community of people creating recipes, they could expand their library immensely within no time at all

As a Spaniard, my thought process when seeing them make Gazpacho went a bit like: - Hmm, let's see how they do, I hope they don't destroy it - Ooh, it looks good (a bit more tomato can be used, but that's depending on tastes) - Nice, they respected the recipe, that's great. Let's see the other dishes. - WAIT WHAT ARE THEY DOING TO THE POOR GAZPACHO?? WHY ARE THERE MEATBALLS IN IT??

The Spaff doing that Mr. Bean thing where he’s conflicted between listening to someone or tuck into a treat.

This is what we call a good sponsorship Like guys they spent days on shooting a 18min long video basically showcasing the machine

honestly, I'd get that. I don't have the skills, nor the attention span to cook, so having something that does it for me and gives audio reminders for each step is a game changer.

Germans Thermomix owners: "Am I a joke to you?"

Here in Germany we have the "Thermomix" kitchen appliances from - Vorwerk - The first model Thermomix VKM5 was from 1961 and the latest model TM6 is from 2019. The model TM5 is sold since 2014 and is what many German households prefer before buying a less expensive similar kitchen appliance. You love your Thermomix here in Germany or you don't want to have nothing to do with a Maschine like this. The new Thermomix model TM6 will cost you 1370 € and you can buy this directly by the manufacturer or a Thermomix representative. What the manufacturer Vorwerk likes to do is get in contact with you when you want to purchase a Thermomix, so you can have a "cooking Thermomix party" for your friends and family. Maybe he/she can sell more than one. I do not like kitchen appliances like this, because I like to cook and I don't feel like I'm cooking with this "Maschine".

We had one of these types of manchine at my college in 2017 and it had all the same functions this one had but it was a little smaller and a smaller screen but did all of the same jobs as that one you've got its awesome

If you came to this video and now are still trying to figure it out if it's worth it to you, Ann Reardon did an awesome review of this machine and one similar and it tests another functions, and also, if the temperature it says that reached, really matches, cause if not, with things such as sous vide can be a health risk. Search for How To Cook That - Thermomix vs Cheaper Option (and I will say that the tokit does great)

Was just watching a old video of yours. Now new content during lunch! Woot!!! Also please test the T Filter-In Bottle in your next gadget video!!! You can find it on Amazon and I use it daily!!! As a tea lover it's amazing!!! Cheers yall!!!

ME: oh wow this machine is absolutely genius!! *price rolls out* ME: it's not worth it, not very practical..

As a chef living in an apartment with a tiny kitchen. This would actually be really handy simply due to the fact that it would compress various machines into the space of a big blender.

I almost spit out my tea from the blooper lmao

Love getting to see the food team as well as the crew photo recently!

Jamie is the Diplomat for the Iberian Region and he’s doing his job of using ‘traditional’ pronounciation of a Spanish word 😂

"It's Barry proof!" About had me rolling LOL

Jamie waiting for Ben to finish talking and then absolutely shovelling food into his mouth sums my life up scarily accurately

Not often I dislike a sorted video. But this was one of those rare times.

I love my Thermomix, had a knock off version from Lidl and leveled up. With this machine the spoken instructions would drie me nuts.

Jamie said it... It's time for Barry to be on his own and create a meal on his own with this gadget and see what happens... Give Barry a gadget badge

Love your videos!!!! I'm from south africa and would love to see you guys try some of our food!!! Like melktert, babotie, chakalaka and pap, malva pudding, bunny chow and loadsssss more!!!!!

My main way of improving it would be to make the blender attachment removable so give more surface area for searing, and include a pressure cooker built into the machine, so it could compete with the Instant Pot. Otherwise seems perfect.

That "I'm intrigued" face of Mike's should absolutely become a meme.

We tested it for work, and I found it to be way more work just to do simple things like making homemade mayo or chopping veggies by hand. Like frustratingly so, so definitely more for a home cook, especially with the recipe thing

"Be glad I'm pulling strings" Definitely stealing this line

So it's a Thermomix, yeah?

I can imagine this would be handy in a apartment or dorm without stove/oven and room for multiple appliances. But otherwise i feel like it doesn't do much for you if you already have a stove oven and blender. Maybe if you have some type off handicap/dissability this could be of use.

This is something I would actually back! Wild!

What interests me in that machine is the heating, the ability to set a specific temperature.
