The Gourmia is super easy to use. The concept is intuitive even if you’ve never used a spiralizer before. You decide which blade size you want (it comes complete with one for ribbons, one for noodles, and one for thick noodles), then position whatever veggie you’re working with in the wide mouth auto feeder. The food pusher helps the food feed down through the bladed cone and your creation drops down into the EasyGrip work bowl. It’s seriously that easy. The base of the unit (where the motor is) is compact and takes up very little room on the counter. (Total bonus points for how sleek and professional it looks)
A couple things that I found noteworthy:
• You never again have to chop your vegetables up first! You use uncut vegetables with this – the Gourmia does all the work.
• This isn’t a food processor. It isn’t going to chop, mince and dice. It makes gorgeous spirals of just about anything in whatever thickness you prefer.
• It doesn’t trip my circuit breaker! (this probably isn’t an issue for you but in my kitchen it’s an issue with other appliances)
• You’re not limited to only healthy stuff! With the ribbon blade I was able to create the most beautiful white chocolate spirals to decorate a cake that I had made.
• It comes safely packaged in high quality retail packaging – would make a perfect wedding or house warming gift.
I’m completely tickled with my purchase. I especially appreciate that there was a recipe book included (in the box, not a downloaded one) that has recipes that are not only easy and fast, but also delicious.
