The Philips kitchen appliance is positioned by the manufacturer as a blender-steamer designed for families with young children who are introducing complementary foods. The model is made of plastic and has a compact size. For steam cooking, a special reservoir for filling the liquid is provided. A transparent plastic bowl with a capacity of 0.45 liters acts as a steamer and a blender at the same time.
So, after steaming, this container simply needs to be turned over, after which grinding can be performed. The 400-watt Philips SCF 870 food processor has a simple control panel with a rotary switch and two operating modes: steaming and mixing respectively. For additional safety and reliability of the model, protection against overheating is provided. Included with the device is a small recipe book with a set of dishes suitable for each of the three main stages of the introduction of complementary foods.

Two in one
The Philips Avent SCF 870 kitchen machine is designed specifically for baby food and combines the functions of a steamer and a blender. It can be used to puree vegetables, fruits, meat or fish, which will be a healthier and cheaper alternative to canned baby food. Also, such healthy food is suitable for adults and people with stomach problems who are prescribed a special diet. But the manufacturer does not recommend cooking frozen foods and cereals or pasta.
The device is easy to use: put food into the bowl, pour water into a special tank, after steaming, turn the bowl over and turn on the blender. There is a measuring scale on the water tank, and the cooking time can also be determined from it: 100 mL — 10 minutes, 150 mL — 15 minutes, 200 mL — 20 minutes. As soon as the water runs out, you will hear a beep and the device will automatically turn off. Therefore, you can safely start cooking and go for a walk with your child — the products will cook themselves, the appliance will turn off, and the food will also remain warm. The sound signal is not loud, but the blender itself is quite noisy, so it is better not to turn it on when the child is sleeping.
compactness
As a result, you will not have a mountain of dirty dishes — you only need to wash the bowl. But it’s better not to delay it: it will be difficult to wash the dried puree from the lid. Also, over time, a plastic bowl can stain from vegetables and fruits and darken. The machine is also very compact: it takes up as much space as a conventional electric kettle, unlike overall blenders and double boilers. And it will take a maximum of 20 minutes to cook.
However the bowl itself is small here: it is designed for 800 mL of loose and 450 mL of liquid, if the volume is larger, the juice or broth will pour out when crushed. This is enough for a couple of servings of food for a toddler and one serving for an older child or adult. If you want to cook in large volumes, it is better to choose Philips Avent SCF 875 with a 0.72 L bowl or buy a steamer and a blender separately. In addition, the device cannot be used for a long time: a maximum of 20 minutes in the steamer mode and 30 seconds for grinding, after which it needs to cool down.
All in all, it's a great helper for parents that is easy to use, saves time and prepares healthy meals. But it doesn't come cheap. A nice bonus will be a book of recipes for children of different age categories, compiled in collaboration with a pediatric nutritionist.
