The Personal Soup Chef.

"This is the device that automatically chops vegetables and simmers broth to make homemade soup with minimal human intervention. The base of the glass pitcher houses blades that chop or stir ingredients and a heating element that sautes the vegetables and cooks the soup. The device automatically maintains the preselected temperature between 150u00BA F and 200u00BA F to gently simmer or rapidly boil soups and the food processing blades can chop or puree vegetables to make a rustic minestrone or a silky tomato veloute. The device makes up to 1 1/2 quarts of soup and has a 30-minute digital timer. The lid and jar are dishwasher safe. 18"" H x 9"" W x 7"" D. (13 lbs.)"
