    Mixer Grinder Buying Guide

    1.Type of usage

    • Normal Household Use
    • Medium Household Use
    • Restaurant use

    A normal household is a family which has 2-4 members, and which needs less amount of grinding. For these households a general 500 watts – 750 watts mixer grinder is most suitable.

    Medium household is a family which has 5-10 members and need larger amounts of grinding. Hence a medium household requires anywhere around 750 Watts -1000 Watts mixer grinder. 

    You must consider to buy a normal mixer grinder or Juicer mixer grinder. A normal mixer grinder does dry and wet grinding whereas a Juicer mixer grinder does juicing.
     
    Whereas, for atta kneading, chopping and slicing vegetables you need an advanced Mixer Grinder(Food processor).
     
    Restaurant use is small or big restaurants that need daily usage of mixer grinders and also need it in large quantities. Which is anything above 1000 W.
     
    Once you have identified your need and type of mixer grinder you require. This will help you in choosing the best Mixer Grinder in India.
     
    Now, moving on to the second criteria.

    2.Power

    Power is a major factor to consider while purchasing the best mixer grinder. Higher the wattage easier it is to grind tough ingredients. Usually, a 500 – 750 Watt mixer grinder does the job for Indian cooking.

    3.Speed Control

    Speed controls knobs/buttons are provided to control the speed of motor and its usually a three-speed control system. Low, Medium and High Speed.
     
    Always have at least three-speed controls in your Mixer Grinder. Though more the speed control options the better is control on the grinding.
     
    Nowadays, pulse or momentary action is also provided in some mixer grinders for doing those finishing touches to the grinding operation.

    4.Number of Jars/Size of the Jar

    Jars are where all the work happens making it an important factor, the size of the jar also matters. Higher the number of family members larger the jars and heavier the Mixer Grinder (Power).
     
    Normal Mixer Grinder comes with three jars, a dry grinding, a wet grinder, and a small chutney jar. Some mixer grinders also provide Juicer jar.
     
    The more the jars higher are the functionalities.

    5.Safety/Overload Protection

    When we overfill our jars and run the mixer grinder for longer duration it can lead to burning of the motor. A mixer grinder always has an overload protection function that breaks the circuit and prevents the motor from further damage.
     
    Always buy Mixer Grinders with an overload protection function.
     
    Coming to safety aspects the best mixer grinders have a safety lock system, that locks the jars to the main unit, and until the jars are locked the mixer grinder will not start. This is important to prevent any accidents and also prevents children to use the mixer grinder without help.
     
    Ensure that you consider safety when you buy a Mixer Grinder for your kitchen.

    6.Warranty

    Some Mixer Grinder companies provide warranties on product (the unit) and some give extended warranty up to 5-7 years on motor. Consider a good warranty period before making the buying decision.

    Who Invented Mixer Grinder?

    mixer grinder buying guide

    Before going on to who Invented Mixer Grinder, let us understand that the Mixer and the Grinder are two separate machines.

    A Mixer is a machine that mixes the ingredients for example:- A mixer is used extensively in baking to knead the dough and mix ingredients, be it cakes or bread.

    A Grinder whereas grinds or breaks down the ingredients into smaller particles. Used to powder the masalas in our kitchen.

    Now when you combine both you get a Mixer Grinder.

    A mixer was invented by American Rufus Eastman in 1885, which was commercially manufactured by Hobart Manufacturing Company. Grinder was traditionally used to grind meat and the machine was known as a meat grinder.

    The Mixer Grinder was invented by an Indian.

    Yes, a traditional Mixer Grinder that could mix, grind and paste the Indian masalas was invented by an Indian, as the story goes it was made by man for his wife.

    Do you remember the old brand called Sumeet? that was common in our households, the picture below would ring some bells.

    SUMEET

    Sumeet Mixer Grinder

    Source

    It was invented by S.P Mathur, who was an Engineer at Siemens a german multinational company, out of sheer love for his wife when she complained that the grinder’s motor burnt out while grinding garam masala. She challenged him to repair it. 

    He failed the challenge but in turn designed a mixer grinder for Indian household called Sumeet which in Sanskrit means ‘Good friend‘. 

    A mixer grinder was born to replace the traditional stone and mortar concept of the early days. Sumeet created a revolution in the Indian market with the mixer grinder. Helping the Indian housewife in preparing dishes that required mixing and grinding and which was before done manually by stone and mortar.

    After S.P Mathur’s death, the legacy has been carried forward by his son Ajay Mathur.

    All the jars except the Juicer jar are made up of high grade stainless steal.

    Summary

    In this article, we are going to carry out the Preethi Galaxy 750W Mixer Grinder Review.

    Preethi Galaxy is the longest-running mixer grinder, it has its name carved out in India Book of Records for grinding 500 kg of batter running for 77hrs and 50minutes.

    The challenge was organized by Preethi as a part of an initiative, two Preethi Galaxy mixer grinders were used to grind 1000Kgs of batter and the same batter was distributed to NGOs for meeting their needs.

    A very cool way to market your product.

    What users say about Preethi Galaxy

    “Lightning fast and worked as described.”

    “Highly Recommended”.

    “Average”

    General Description

    SpecificationDescription
    Power750W Motor
    Number of Jars3
    Speed Control3 Levels of Speed Control
    Warranty2 Years on Product, 5 Years on Motor

    Power

    Preethi Galaxy is powered by 750 watt Vega W5 motor, an in house technology of Preethi.

    The motor has gone through hours of testing for endurance, and 215 quality tests making it a unique motor. The motor is a powerful one that grinds anything easy and quick, also Preethi claims it as one of the best for grinding idli and dosa batter.

    The only aspect that troubles you is the noise of the motor, which is very high because of it being a 750 Watt.

    Number/Size of Jars

    The mixer grinder consists of three jars:

    1. 1.5L Blending Jar
    2. 1L Dry Grinding Jar
    3. 0.4L Chutney Jar

    All the jars are made up of stainless steel and all have good and sturdy handles that help you in holding the jars firmly.

    The lid on Blending and chutney jar is transparent and we wonder why Dry grinding jar has a solid lid, a transparent lid would have worked wonders.

    The capacity on the jars are all par with other mixer grinders in the range and fulfill all your kitchen needs. 

    The blades in the jars are all stainless steel and are all two blades systems, which is concerning as the wet grinding blades are usually a three-blade system.

    Design and Build

    The Mixer grinder has an ergonomic design which makes it lightweight and also requires less space, and this is true as the main unit is just 500 Grams and has no L shaped nonsense.

    The only thing that may affect you is its color, which is pink, though the color may suit some kitchens, not all. 

    It could have had an option in color to choose the best for your kitchen.

    The body is made up of ABS plastic which is a good quality plastic.

    Preethi Galaxy has a usual rotary dial, that gives a three-speed control for you to carry out grinding.

    Warranty

    The warranty on the Preethi Galaxy mixer is on par with others in the range and comes with 2 years on product and 5 years on motor.

    Pros
    • Powerful Vega W5 Motor
    • Endurance Mixer Grinder
    • Budget buy
    • Compact Ergonomic Design
    Cons
    • Quality issues reported by some users.
    • No Color Option
    • Average Performer

    Verdict- is Preethi Galaxy 750w mixer grinder worth it?

    The mixer grinder has all it needs to have but misses on a few points, mainly the quality issues, blades not performing up to the mark, and no options for opting the color

    It has a powerful Vega W5 750 watt motor but the motor cannot do justice if the other parts do not perform to its best.

    Preethi has been around for quite some time and has good service centers across India after sales would not be a problem for you. 

    It is a pretty basic mixer grinder that does not have any extra features and is the best buy for someone who is looking for a budget buy.

    Instead, you can buy Preethi Blue Leaf Gold, which has better user reviews with no compromise of looks. Click here.

    SpecificationDescription
    Power750W Motor
    Number of Jars3 +1 Juicer Jar
    Speed Control3 Levels of Speed Control

    Power

    This is a 750 Watt Mixer Grinder, that grinds any solid ingredient into a smooth texture. 750 Watts is on par with the competitors and Prestige Iris gives a tough competition to the likes of Preethi and Philips. 

    Power on the motor is quite powerful and grinds anything with ease, the performance is up to the mark in terms of dry grinding and wet grinding.

    1. 1.5L Juicer Jar
    2. Large Wet Grinding Jar
    3. Medium Dry Grinding Jar
    4. Small Chutney Jar

    Opinion

    Good Variety of jars provided to satisfy all the needs of the household kitchen.

    The Large Wet grinding jar has a transparent lid, and one would wish the other jars to also have transparent lid, the lids fit perfectly though.

    All jars except the Juicer jar are made up of stainless steel which is of good quality. The chutney jar does not have a handle, which could be a concern to some users.

    The advantage this mixer grinder has is the juicer jar which comes with mesh separator to bring out the Juice without the need of using a strainer.

    But then coming to the performance of the mesh strainer, it could have been better and requires you to pass the juice again through the strainer to get pure juice. The handles are all sturdy and help in griping.

    The jars do not have capacity written in them as compared to other mixer grinders and come with Large, medium and small capacity jars.

    Design

    The design of the mixer grinder is classic and could have been better, the style of the speed controller dial is a little off, wish they could make it more like a traditional controller dial or even like a button.

    The mixer grinder is compact and does not require much space in the kitchen. The weight of the main unit is also less compared to other mixers in the range.

    Warranty

    The mixer grinder comes with 2 years on Product warranty and 1 Year on Motor.

    Price

    • Best Budget buy
    • Best overall performer
    • Best Gift option to consider

    • Juicer Performance could improve

    Prestige Iris Mixer Grinder Review- Is it Worth your purchase?

    The mixer grinder performs well in almost all the departments except the few quality issues and average performance on Juicer Jar. But all these aspects are not deal breakers.

    The capacity of jars are not mentioned except for the juicer jar, remaining three jars perform well. The handles are all sturdy and the plastic could have been better in quality.

    The design also needs improvement, but the performance of the motor takes away all the marks as it is quite a powerful one.

    If you want a good performing budget mixer grinder with an added advantage of Juicer then this should be your best buy.

    With this we come to an end of Prestige Iris mixer grinder review. Feel free to reach us out on comments below.

    Prestige iris vs Iris plus- Which is better?

    Prestige Iris 750 Watt mixer grinder review

    Prestige Iris

    Prestige Iris Plus

    Prestige Iris Plus is nothing but an improvement of Prestige Iris, only physically. Although the only physical changes that you see is the colour. Does it have any difference other than colour? No. 

    A disappointment from Prestige as you would always expect a revamped mixer grinder to have greater functionality or features than the previous one. But this one has nothing changed to it other than colour.

    Few quality issues with Iris also persists in Iris plus, and the quality of plastic is also same. Same quality and quantity of jars and lids.

    Therefore if you are confused between the two then just choose the colour. If stylish black is your preference and suits you kitchen then Iris plus is your best buy. And if you do not have any colour preference then consider Prestige Iris.

    Alternatives

    If you are a big family of 4-6 members and need a mixer grinder cum food processor then consider the Preethi Variant.

    If you need a mixer grinder which has a juicer jar then consider Philips Juicer Mixer grinder or Preethi Platinum.

    Also consider Panasonic Mixer grinder which has all that you need in a mixer grinder with added Juicer jar and enhanced safety.

    Rating25 min continuous running time

    Power

    It comes with a 750W powerful motor. A turbo motor that grinds anything tough with ease. The Mixer Grinder has a rating of 25min, which means it can run continuously for 25 minutes. This is a very good rating for a mixer grinder of this category. 

    The larger running time ensures that the dry grinding is carried out efficiently as dry grinding requires the necessary power and time.

    Power is an important factor in a mixer grinder and Philips hl7756 has what you need.

    The Mixer Grinder has 3 Levels of Speed control which is common in almost all mixer grinders.

    Number/ Size of jars

    The Philips HL7756 Mixer Grinder comes with 3 Jars:

    1. 0.3L Chutney Jar
    2. 1L Dry Grinder Jar
    3. 1.5L Wet Grinding Jar

    Large Wet jar, Dry Grinding jar and Chutney jar

    Opinion:

    The mixer grinder has a decent capacity of jars, which perfectly suits small to medium family sizes. All the jars are made up of stainless and food-grade materials. 

    The Chutney jar could have been bigger with other mixer grinders in the category having a larger chutney jar, although this would hardly matter considering the size of the family for which you must consider this mixer grinder.

    Also, the lid of the larger jar is transparent whereas others do not have a transparent lid. The chutney jar could have had a handle for better usability. Other than this the quality and durability do not disappoint.

    All the jars are made up of stainless steel which is food grade and easy to clean.

    Warranty and other features

    The Philips HL7756/00 comes with 2 years Product warranty and 5 years warranty on the Motor, which is good for this category, and the Mixer Grinder comes with an Advanced Air Ventilation System that allows efficient working of the mixer grinder by cooling the motor continuously. 

    The ventilation system is a unique one in the category and hence allows the mixer grinder to run continuously for 25 Min.

    Always note that there would be certain burning smell when you run the mixer for the first time. This is normal and persists in all the mixers.

    Philips HL7756/00 Mixer Grinder Review- Is it Worth Buying?

    Philips HL7756/00 Mixer grinder is a good compact mixer grinder that features a unique air ventilation system, but then when you look at the jars, the chutney jar disappoints with only 0.3L capacity, and no handle, one is left asking more from the mixer grinder.

    Considering the family size, this is perfectly suited for a small to medium family and hence the size of jars would be sufficient.

    Therefore consider this mixer grinder if you are a small to medium family and require a mixer grinder for daily usage.

    Other than these things the mixer grinder is a good product and has almost all the corners covered. If you are looking for a good-looking and good performing mixer grinder then this should be the choice. 

    The noise on the mixer grinder is also a factor that must be considered with this mixer grinder having a slightly higher sound which is common in a 750W mixer grinder. Higher the power higher would be the sound
