There are quite a number of chips available here in Germany.  Buying the books funnily enough is the expensive part but the chips are about another 15 euros or so.  Ed had a look and has already planned to take us to the Vorwerk shop to buy them all when his sister arrives.  As she is taking our TM31, we want to replace the seal, spatula and measuring cup as they are a bit old and Yukky so we can buy them all there.  If you like, I could take some photos of the shop and post them, I know you would all be in heaven at the Vorwerk shop!!!!!

Welcome to the forum.  You are amongst wonderful company who LOVE Thermomixing everything from chicken stock to soap powder.  Is there anything this machine cannot do? This forum is the BEST ever and the most supportive group of people.  I mentioned a few years back how wonderful it would be to bring everyone together.  It would be just so much fun.  Great people, great food and a whole lotta fun.

Hi everyone,  TM5 is ordered and we are waiting and waiting and waiting. Funnily, Ed and I seem to be Themomixing with TM 31 even more than ever now. 

Our TM31 has a new home - Ed's sister!  I will introduce you to her (I will make her join the forum I promise) as we are bringing her here to Frankfurt in 10 days to pick up her new adoption.  Much to Ed's shock and horror, I am planning a farewell dinner for Thermie (TM31) and then I will photograph her as she leaves for the airport for her new home in Adelaide.  Fortunately, she will still remain in the family. I will still be able to visit her a few times a year and she will make other family members as happy as she has made us. 

Xxxooo

Hi Bon.  I received such wonderful support and guidance from the wonderful members on this forum prior to my TM31 purchase three years ago.  Listen to all the opinions and make your own decision.  However, the decision MUST be to buy a Thermomix of ANY description.  If a TM31 offer looks good, with two bowls then grab it.  I have TM31 and love it but I am buying TM5 because, well, I just want it.  If you like new and a box, get TM5, in you would rather save some money and get it right now, get TM31.  Enjoy your new Thermomix, whichever one you choose.

Hi everyone,  I don't know quite where to out this but I found the link for the South African TM site. Lots of quite nice recipes.  I will be there in December so I just ordered the odyssey cookbook, it sounds so expensive at 500 Rands but thankfully translates to 35€.  Anyway, I'm. Sure many of you have this but take a look anyway. Happy day

Oh golly Paulstinopener, I was not aware of that, apologies all.  That didn't seem to be the feeling at my group meeting yesterday.  But then my German is awful so perhaps I missed that... :( Well this is perhaps more of a disaster than I realised.

Hi everyone,
This is Sad to read.  I have been googling and reading all the negative press about Thermomix Australia.  It doesn't appear to have been handled so poorly here in Deutschland but I am keeping my ears open.  I would have been mortified had I sold a machine to someone one week before the new one was launched.
Those of us fortunate to have a Thermomix of any model know they joy they bring us.  It is sad that so many people are feeling such negativity and anger towards the company. From what I understand, Vorwerk stopped selling TM31 a couple of weeks ago with this in mind.

Let's think for a moment about cars.  How often do you buy a car and the next thing you know it has been superseded by the next model? It is life I suppose and no one is shouting at VW or Toyota.  I know of people who bought a new car towards the end of one month only to find the price slashed the following month.  It is sad but it does happen.

I do hope Thermomix Australia survive this, I am sure they will.  All publicity is good publicity and if nothing else, it will get more people talking, reading, researching and no doubt buying the TM5.

Xxxooo

How rude and insensitive people are?  I mean, really! MM does the BEST job.  But I guess we are all internet users and obviously have delightful senses of humour to realise accidents do happen :)

Just curious. Is it TMX Aus who followed the method of selling  TM31 without letting customers know about the new model  or has this happened in other countries also?

I mentioned this last night actually to my group leader.  Evidently they stopped selling the old model only a couple of weeks ago but only the new one is available now. I think it got.a bit lost I in my awful German, as I was trying to ascertain whether people were unhappy.  I will put on my monocle and investigate further.....
