Thank you so much for your interest in our beloved ThermoCook Essential and ThermoCook Pro M 2.0
Although both are outstanding appliances, the Essential is a beginner's model, ideal for those looking to save money while beginning their Thermocooking experience. On the other hand, the Thermocook Pro M 2.0 is more advanced and comes with additional features and capabilities.
The key differences between the Thermocook Essential and ThermoCook Pro M 2.0 are:
The 2.0 has a reverse function vs the Essential does not have it.
The 2.0 has a 9" colour LCD display, the Essential has a 7" black/white display
The temperature settings start at 30°C on the 2.0 vs 37°C on the Essential
If contents are over 60° (TC Pro M 2.0) vs 90°C (TC Essential), a safety speed control will limit the blend speed to 4 to reduce the risk of splashing.
You can add your own recipes via the app for the Thermocook Pro M 2.0 while this is not possible for the Essential
With the 2.0 you have the option to change the language to either English, German, French, Dutch or Italian
