Finally I have one

Here's the modern version, renamed Multiquick 5 (personally I find the renaming a bloody shame. Multiquick was originally the name for a foodchopper IIRC).

They made these neat rectangular heaters about the shape of a clock radio or maybe a book, sort of low with a long, small diameter squirrel cage blower like in an over the stove microwave. They could be used as a desk fan in warm weather.

I think Tom it's the heater on this page:

I have the toaster that is on that page. Still use it.

Congratulations on the blender ! Looks like a very sturdy beast.

Question: What is the dial on the coffee mill for ? It isn`t a timer, is it ? (Mine only has an ON/OFF switch instead)

For those who care about the Aromaster KF20 there is a vintage test from the German consumers magazine for free. Just click on the link, then click on "PDF" on the left side to download the results from 1973.

Yes it's a timer.

I'll have to start digging out all my Braun stuff I've got scattered and put away around here. A lot of interesting pictures on there of Brazilian appliances.. I saw there were some GE mixers in bright blue and red whereas we got the pastels. Same with the GE canister vacuum in bright orange and brown.

Just found this on the German Braun site. A new blender with 800 Watts motor. It's a modern blender, but a few small details remember me of the blender Pete found.
