      I work as a support worker with clients with disability and am currently putting together a proposal for inclusion in at least 4 of my clients to ask for a Thermomix in their next review. The comments and information provided in this link has been of great assistance.
      I use my Thermomix on a daily basis and have really enjoyed showing my clients how easy it is for them to be able to cook independently and much healthier than before.

      My husband and I are both legally blind. We are both confident cooks but, in my case anyway, it sometimes takes me a long time to prepare food. I loved the idea of the Thermomix because it allowed me to prepare all-in-one meals quickly and safely. I find the Varoma is a very safe way to steam food, and I am constantly finding myself trying recipes I'd never thought of attempting before. We are much more aware of what we eat now, and it's great to be able to make so many useful things from scratch, such as stock. We've had ours for 18 months and we have never looked back. Thank you all for sharing your inspirational stories.

      My lovely thermomix consultant is one of my beat friends..
      When Janine first started, my daughter had a demo..
      I've been disabled for just over 2 yrs now and my cooking skills were minimum..we lived on a lot of take-out I loved cooking but it became a hard and difficult task and only added to my depressive state of being useless.. pots with boiling water etc being carried from stove to sink was dangerous, as they were not only heavy but I drop so many things...I purchased a thermomix and due to the fact I only needed to be able to pull out the jug, it was a given that this would be an extremely useful appliance for me ..before I needed to have my husband with me to 'help'...
      Not now tho ...I now have some independence back in the kitchen!
      we actually eat healthier than before as everything that goes in is fresh and no preservatives..
      I make things I've never made before ..it's like painting with numbers ..
      There are thousands of no fail recipes online and in the recipe book you get with the thermomix too and everything turns out perfect!
      If you have a disability and can lift out the jug ..get some independence back in the kitchen ..you'll be so glad u did..I am!
      I now feel a bit better about my usefulness :0)
      Thanks Janine Bechaz for for introducing me to Thermomix..:0)
