Yes, it can get very messy :( And the varoma wobbles around in circles while its cooking, so it spreads the water even further :P

Of course Julie, silly me didn't even notice the bottom part.  I hate to tell you Amy but the later model is much improved on that varoma you have, no leaks or mess.

You can buy one and it will fit your machine though Amy.  Thermomixer did just that years ago.  Sorry Uni, got to call it as it is.  Besides that, any newcomer thinking of buying a TMX would be put off after reading it makes a mess all over the cupboard.  Vorwerk got it right in the next model.

When I purchased my TM it came with the stainless steel varoma but decided to buy the new one.The depth of the new one is better and having a clear domed lid is great for watching things cook in the upper tray :)

I think it is not put together  right. The  top should be the bottom turned up the other way and where is the lid?

Do you stil have three parts Amy. The lid is definitely not in the pic and the handles where the pegs are should turn up not down.
I think this is user error Amy.
 ;D

No user error here Gert. The lid is there.
I took some photos for you.

Yup Amy you are right and I am wrong. I have not seen  that flat top before.  Not a good design and  no wonder it drips.

Good for us all to see isn't it ? A picture saves a thousand word.  I say if you are going to use the varoma a lot then you need the new one as that is useless.

Thanks Amy.
