Duo Meal Station 6-in-1 Food Prep System

French company Babymoov’s top-line baby food maker can do a lot more than make purees. The 5-in-1 machine cooks, blends, warms and defrosts food, and can also be used as a bottle warmer and sterilizer.

Thanks to its large steaming bowl and blending jug, you can make up to 25 baby-sized servings at a time (9.25 cups). There are two separate steaming baskets, so you can cook different foods simultaneously, and the flavors and nutrients remain intact. A keeper for cooking water catches the nutrients that escape with steam, so you can add them back in when you thin your puree. It has three blending speeds to help you get the texture just right. The blender and steamer can be separated for storage.

With its extra-large capacity, this machine is great for those with multiples or small children close in age, or if you like to prep more than one meal at a time.

The bottle warmer function lets you heat up to three bottles at once, and you can fit up to three bottles plus pump parts in it to sterilize.

The Duo Meal Station control panel has an LCD display and sound alerts—you can program it yourself or choose from 10 presets. More to love: the plastics used for the steam trays, lids and blending pitcher are BPA free. Babymoov also has a companion cooking app you can personalize, plus a blog with a trove of recipes and tips searchable by age and food type.

The Duo Meal Station is similar to Babymoov’s Nutribaby food maker, with a couple of key differences. The Duo Meal station has a much more intuitive interface, with just one function per button, so it’s simpler to use. Also, you can use the blender on its own, which you can’t do with the Nutribaby.

A baby food maker with this many bells and whistles can easily become another kitchen staple that outlives your baby’s early years. It’s great for making dips or prepping veggies for the whole family, not just the littlest ones.
