Braun Multiquick 3 K650 Kitchen Machine Review

Braun, a well respected brand in consumer electronics, released the Braun Multiquick 3 K650 Kitchen Machine as part of their Multiquick 3 series of food processors. The K650 under review here is one of two models available in this series, with the other model being the K600. Both models are very similar, except the K650 features a mini chopper and juicer extractor insert, while the K600 doesn’t.

Design

The Braun Multiquick 3 K650 Kitchen Machine has a low-profile design with a white plastic body which makes the machine relatively lightweight. Unlike most processors, it is rather wide horizontally which gives it a unique and characteristic appearance.

Variable Speed Control

With the Braun Multiquick 3 K650 you’re always in control with the variable speed control. Using the easy-to-use electronic dial, you can choose from a range of 14 speeds so with some trial and error you can find a perfect speed for the task at hand. Most food processors don’t have variable speeds, so we’re really pleased to see this feature.

Additionally, there is also a pulse control setting which is very useful for processing softer produce.

Universal Bowl

The universal plastic bowl has a capacity of 2 litres for liquids and 1.5 kg for dough, which equates to 9-cups. Its sealed design is excellent as it ensures there is no overflowing of liquids on to your countertop to create a mess. The bowl has markings etched on for measurements which come in very handy when you need to measure ingredients.

Accessories

Plenty of quality accessories are included with the K650 so it can perform a multitude of tasks. These include a Cream propeller, Dough tool, Whipping/blending tool, Slicing insert, Shredding insert, Extra coarse shredding insert, Mini chopper insert and Juice extractor insert.

Pros and Cons of the Braun Multiquick 3 K650 Kitchen Machine

Pros

Quiet, powerful, easy-to-use, good capacity, provides variable speeds and comes with many attachments, the Braun Multiquick 3 offers unparalleled quality and exceptional durability. Another thing which sets this machine apart is the ability to fill up the bowl high-up with liquids without causing spillage. This is a big advantage if you use a lot of liquid ingredients.

Cleanup is quick and easy due to its parts being dishwasher safe. However, we recommend you don’t clean them using your dishwashers heated dry setting as some consumers have experienced their parts becoming damaged using this setting.

Cons

This machine has been discontinued by Braun so is no longer being manufactured. However, replacement parts are available from reputable suppliers if you need them. Braun also lists several of these suppliers on their website.

A coarse slicing blade isn’t included, so needs to be purchased separately for around $8.

Final Thoughts

The Braun Multiquick 3 K650 Kitchen Machine has all one could hope for in a food processor without being costly, which does put it in a league of its own. With its array of attachments, it goes beyond just slicing, chopping and shredding, making it a truly multi-purpose machine. Although it was released 5 years ago, it’s still superior to many food processors in the market today.

If you’re tired of noisy, leaky food processors that don’t do their job properly then the Braun K650 will be a welcome change and a wonderful addition to your kitchen.
