Disadvantages of these mixers

Disadvantages of these mixers

Undoubtedly, these mixers are certainly a value for money and will serve the purpose efficiently. However, the only disadvantage I believe is that they make a lot of noise.

Because of the robust motor, they make noise. In case you are looking for a silent mixer grinder within the same range and features. I would recommend buying this specific model of Panasonic on Amazon.

Differences of Zodiac vs Zion

Differences of Zodiac vs Zion

As discussed in the above part, there isn’t a very significant difference in both these models. The only considerable difference is in terms of pricing, quantity & size of jars.

First and foremost, the zion model comes with a total number of 4 jars, whereas you get an entire five jars with the zodiac.

Along with these big jars, you get a small jar with both the mixer grinders. Zodiac has named their small jar as a chutney jar which is 0.5 litres. At the same time, zion’s small jar has a quantity of 0.2 litres.

  • Now the zion model includes a turbo spice jar, master chef jar, chutney jar.
  • And the zodiac comes with a grinding jar, master chef + jar, chutney jar & a juicer.

With these minimal differences, currently, the preethi zodiac is priced around 1.5 higher than zion. 

Note – The price is to share a brief idea; it may fluctuate over time.

Since I have spent hours on research, I found that most people go with zodiac since it has an additional jar that also works as a juicer.

However, at the same time, I do feel that the blue outline based on zion makes it look even more attractive. It would definitely upscale the overall interior of your kitchen.

Which one should you buy & why?

In the entire article, we have covered the differences, similarities and features as well. I am sure you would agree with me that both the products are almost the same.

Now, based on that slight difference, you are the one who has to decide which one do you need…

Let me make it even simple.

As I mentioned earlier, if you are a couple, a bachelor, or a small family, you should opt for zion as it is priced comparatively less with the same features. The only thing is, you wouldn’t get access to that extra jar.

At the same time, if you are a prominent 4-5 family member and like to cook multiple dishes, juices, smoothies and want the jar to work as a centrifugal juicer as well, you should go with the Preethi zodiac.

Either way, investing in any of them is worth it.
