Described by the brand as a fuss-free way to make delicious soup, everything about the Morphy Richards Soupmaker is designed to save you time and effort. While lacking some of the snazzy features of some soup makers (it doesn't have a sauté function for example) it does score points for its simplicity. In fact, 76 per cent of Amazon shoppers have awarded the soup maker a full five stars. 

All you have to do to prep your soup is choose and chop your ingredients into small pieces, place them inside the soup maker and choose either the smooth or chunky setting.

Essentially a blender with a heating element, the Morphy Richards Soupmaker blends all your ingredients together and cooks them, allowing quicker cooking and better blending without the hassle of multiple pots and pans. 

'I love this appliance! I love that you can throw everything in, press a button and have a perfect soup 21 minutes later! I love that the volume makes exactly two days of soup. I love that it blends and is super easy to clean. I honestly didn't think I would need this machine because boiling veg and using a hand blender isn't that hard, but this machine makes the whole operation so much easier.'

The large 1.6 L capacity allows you to serve up to six peopleThe one-step operation couldn't be simpler

Just throw in your ingredients and sit back and let the Morphy Richards Soupmaker do the hardwork for you 

The easy-to-use control panel and one-step operation couldn't be simpler plus it has the handy feature of an LED countdown display that shows exactly how long your soup has left to cook.

Amazon shoppers have also been impressed by the decent capacity- at 1.6 litres the Morphy Richards Soupmaker is enough to serve around four to six people, great for feeding a family or for lunches during the week. One drawback however is that shoppers have found starchy ingredients like potatoes can cause some burning on the base. 

'I love my soup maker and use it most days. In order for the contents not to burn and stick to the bottom make sure you put water in first and not the ingredients or it will catch and be difficult to clean. I’ve had various results using different ideas that I tend to wing in there depending what I have kicking about. The machine is super simple to use but can go wrong if you don’t follow a few rules, one being you need the veg pretty small or it won’t chop and will stop the blades.'

Another commented: 'There is nothing to dislike about this product. Easy to use and clean. We've gone mad on soups since having this and we've also cut down on waste because we're constantly using left overs. My friend recommended this to me I I would highly recommend this to everybody who wants to created quick and easy soup with very little fuss!'
