1. The Heart of the TM7 — Mixing Bowl
Part | Function | Pro tip |
Lid Cap | Closes steam vents during heating; remove before Varoma® use. | Use as a mini measuring cup. |
Lid with Steam Openings | Channels steam safely upward. | Place flat on worktop; ribs face up to stay clean. |
Stainless-Steel Bowl (2.2 L) | Mix, cook & sauté in one pot. | 2 L mark is sweet-spot for soups. |
Mixing Knife + Shaft | Chops, kneads, mills; auto-reverses. | Reverse helps keep veg intact. |
Insulation Cover & Lock Lever | Keeps exterior cool; locks bowl above speed 2. | Always click until you hear the clack. |
2. Intelligent Base & Touchscreen
10-inch Display – Swipe-through Cookidoo® recipes, set manual modes or hop into the guided Pre-clean.
Power Button & Slider Foot – Lift the front slightly, glide the TM7 forward on its rear slider; perfect for small UK worktops.
Scale Feet – Hidden load-cells so you can weigh ingredients straight into the bowl.
3. Varoma® — Healthy 3-Tier Steaming
Dish – Holds root veg, rice bowls or ramekins.
Tray – Adds a second layer; great for salmon fillets.
Lid – Traps steam while preventing condensation drips.
Workflow idea: Potatoes in the simmering basket, broccoli in the dish, cod on the tray → one 20-minute steam = complete dinner for four.

Hook removes hot simmering basket safely.
Flexible Tip scrapes every gram of nut butter.
Simmering Basket
Steam rice, quinoa or diced meat inside the bowl while blades spin below. Built-in lid prevents splashes.
