Recommend: Beaba Baby Food Maker

Price: $149.99

I used this machine for several months back when I was making purees for my son, and I loved it. I love that it does everything all in one (steams, purees & thaws). It's easy to clean and easy to use. The only downfall I can see is that you can not make large batches at once.

Pros:
-steams & purees all in one device which means less to clean
-steamer automatically shuts off when veggie is done
-easy pour spout
-comes with a great spatula
-dishwasher safe
-doesn't take up too much space
-can be used to thaw frozen foods


Cons
-expensive
-can not make large batches
-doesn't serve much purpose once baby no longer eats purees

Overall I love this machine and will use it again for my next child. It's a great way to make purees or even to soften harder foods (carrots, etc). It is expensive and pots & pans will do the same job (and in larger portions), but if you are looking for a baby food cooker and can afford this one, I would definitely recommend it.
