Preethi Home Appliances | Preethi Mixie & Grinder
Today we got a query from Vinoth.
“I have planned to replace my existing mixer grinder with Preeti Blue leaf model – I could not find much comments about the model on the net
can anyone help me out in this matter”
We decided to dig deep for helping Vinoth out and realized first that Preethi does not have a very popular web site. After some detailed searches we landed on their url :
http://www.preethi.biz/index.htm (we feel it is odd for the company to have a .biz extension, which is perhaps the reason why they are not popular with search engines)
Strangely enough , the model which Vinoth mentioned was not listed on their homepage.
This is what we got from the internet.
New range of mixer-grinder launched
Courtesy: UNI
Preethi, the largest selling mixer-grinder brand in India, today launched its new range that would lead the company’s pan-India market expansion and was planning to enter into the wet grinder market in the next 12 months.
The first piece of the new product, ‘Preethi Blue Leaf’, was handed over to noted businessman and Vasanth and Company chain of stores owner H V Vasanth Kumar by Mr Vijay Srinivasan, Director, Marketing, Maya Appliances Private Limited, which owns the Preeti Brand.
Speaking at the launch function, Mr Vijay Srinivasan said the new mixer-grinder from its Manufacturing facility in Himachal Pradesh, was designed on a ‘leaf motif’, hitherto the convention ‘L’ shaped mixer-grinders.
The new range comes in two models — the Blue Leaf Platinum priced at Rs 3,970 and the Blue Leaf Gold at Rs 3691, and would hit the market during the Deepavali season.
The product occupies reduced table top footprint and the platinum range comes packaged with Preethi’s patented super extractor and “Grind” and “Store” attachments along with their silent 750 Watts motors, the first one to get the ISI approval in the category.
Replying to questions, the new product was expected to contribute 22 per cent in the first year in the overall sales volume, and the company has targeted to touch one million units by 2010.
The company has invested about Rs 10 crore at the Himachal Pradesh plant to support the company’s expansion in the northern region.
Unveiling the company’s plans to roll out wetgrinders and gas stoves, Mr Vijay said the table-top wet grinders would hit the market in the next 12 months.
”The design is out of the drawing table and a final decision is yet to be taken whether to manufacture it in Himachal Pradesh plant or in its two manufacturing facilities in Chennai”, he added.

Vinoth, if you could tell us the following it would help us answer you better:
a) Which city are you from?
b) What is the current brand of mixer grinder that you own?
c) What prompted you to choose Preethi’s Blue lead model?
d) Are you already in touch with a dealer for price information? If so can you share it with us?
I request our fellow readers to help Vinoth if you own the same model or have seen it in action.

Today I am purchasing a new mixie ( preethi-platinum) at Thiruvanmiyur in Chennai with reduction of Rs.1200/ for exchange of 10 years old mixie ( charminar ).
After using the mixie I will comment on the performance of the unit.
Hi I am interested in buying Preethi grinder. Can you please let me know of the various grinders available and their prices. Also of any dealers in Chicago,US ?
HOW MANY MODELS ARE THERE IN PREETHI MIXIE
I recently tried to purchase a Preethi Blue Leaf Platinum Mixie with “Perfect Peninsula”. When I contacted them, they made me order for “Chef Pro Plus Mixie” instead of Blue Leaf Platinum Model, saying that Blue Leaf has been replaced with Chef Pro Plus. Then, they send me an old used like mixie with very old packaging, worn out spare blade, scratched and tampered containers, and with rust on the bottom of the jars. Every part in the box looked like they put it together from different batches. During the conversation, they informed me that “Bombay Limited” is their sister company, where there is no phone number listed on the website to contact them. If you have a problem, they won’t answer your calls or revert back to you. Also the management of the Company, Preethi is also not much helpful, where they do not revert back to customer’s concerns directly, although I contacted them several times. I would like to have this comment see by the son of the Managing Director of Preethi Home Appliances, T.T. Siddharth, who looks like live in US and has tried to help a customer through this website one time. Since it is a family operated kind of business, it looks like they just back up their relatives and do not take into consideration of any opinions of the consumers.
Nandini, who claims to be the Regional Manager of U.S.A. says that she cannot guarantee that she can send a brand new unit to me. Also they have a 20% re-stocking fee (small print policy) and make you pay the shipping charges to send the unit back, even if it is their fault sending me an old used unit in the first place.
STAY AWAY FROM THESE FRAUD ONLINE COMPANIES LIKE “PERFECT PENINSULA INC.” and “BOMBAY LIMITED”, who are Misleading and Rediculous Customer Service Provider Distributors for “Preethi Products” and boasts about “Quality, Tradition and Patronage”.
If you are considering to buy a mixie in U.S., I would recommend to buy some other old trusted brands like “Sumit” or something else. If you still want to go with Preethi Mixie, buy from one of their dealers in India with 110V and not from U.S., where you can at least see the product before you pay and will only cost you half the price as well. Think well before you deal with these companies so that you can save your money and time.

hi all,
nice comments on preethi mixies.
For any one like to buy new preethi mixie, better buy following models to avoid complaints:-
1) nitromax-750watts with juicer with safty switch
2) nitro- 600watts without juicer
3) Ecoplus- 750watts with juicer
4) Trio- Lowrange new model
The above models have no complaints.
Better don’t buy blueleaf models. it got some complaints and they updated with nitro series models
if any doubt just contact http://www.preethi.biz

Is preeti chef pro available in buffalo,or new jersey?
@ Arun, TIruppur:
I couldn’t understand your words. You seem to be saying that since Preethi Blue leaf models have problems in them, it has been replace with Nitro models.
That being the case, why they still advertise for the faulty preethi blue leaf models?????? Either you are wrong or the Company is taking a toll on the customers.

i bought a preethi blue leaf mixie recently for 3,355/- after seeing an advertisement in newspaper. now Recently they are advertising for the same mixie along with an free cooker. But the price they are offering is Rs 4555. i think they are adding the cost of Cooker and publicity it as Free. WHen i realised this cost difference, i refused to get the Cooker and came back. Anybody can help me.?
I am facing the issue with my preethi blue leaf mixie. The lid locking system in preethi blue leaf mixie is not very good, the contents are thrown out of mixie happens both in the chatney grinder jar and large jar, this does not happened once, but many time. I think the lids are not designed for easy handing of women at home. I guess preethi has given more importance to aesthetics of the mixie, jar and lids and have compromised on the locking mechanism. The lid has to be closed with great pressure, else great pressure has to be applied on the top of the jar to keep the chatney and liquid from spilling our. else guys in the house has to clean the walls once the contents are spilled, i did. iduku naan guarantee.
i HAD PURCHASED PREETHI MIXIE – POPULAR MODEL IN MY CITY PALLADAM AND THE WASHER ON THE JAR ARE DAMAGED AND I AM TRYING TO PURCHASE THE WARSER, BUT NOT AVAILABLE ON THE PREETHI DEALER SHOP ALSO. SO TELL ME AN SOLUTION.

Preethi Plantinum Blue Leaf is 3500/- ..bought on 19-12-2009
I purchased Preethi ECO Plus Heavy Duty Mixer Grinder in the month of Oct 2007 but it is using from May 2009. It is 110 VOLTS UL recognised Motor and the same is using in USA (New Jersy). Suddenly on 19th Dec 2009 while grinding Dosa stuff it is stopped due to load. As per instruction book I started again after 30 minutes with less quantity. Even then it is not working/running the motor. Kindly advise me what to do to get it repair.
im looking for buying preethy mixe in delhi mkt. i want detailes of ur dealer in delhii or noida
@ Anonymous
right now its not available in delhi.
Great to know the review comments on Preethi. Was planning to buy one for my stay in Singapore. After seeing the review comments I have decided not to. By the way, my mom has a Preethi. The new one makes a lot of noise. So far the grinding is ok. But after seeing the lot of complaints against this mixi better not go for it. Preethi managers should take care they offer good service to customers abroad as well and not to those in INdia alone. Do not advertise what you dont have, it wont add value to your business(Was referring to the sound problem and cheap plastic and blades used in the mixer)
Warm regards

Hi All,
I am planning to buy a Preethi mixie. Can anyone guide me which model of preethi is good now in the market. And tell me the cost of the product.
Thanks in advance.
Hi
Can anyone help me decide between Preethi Blue Leaf Platinum and Preethi Chefpro Plus for US(110 V) use. Blue leaf platinum looks attractive, and I also like the idea that it has one jar less(can use the bigger jar for smaller quantities using the flexilid), but I am skeptical about its performance. I saw complaints that the jar leaks and the mixee is very noisy(ofcousrse i saw such comments abt chefpro plus also). can someone who has seen both help me decie?
Thanks in advance.
Swetha
@ Swetha
Other than the looks both are equally good.
Hi Swetha
My personal opinion is that you don’t go for any of these preethi models as both have number of complaintss. One can easily understand the same from number of negative reviews above.why don’t you try something different?
My personal experience with Preethi? I haven’t seen Blueleaf yet, but had a chefPro plus (110 V)when we were in Dallas. We were doomed with its repeated issues and had to send the Unit through my visting Mom back to India.
Adios, if you still want to go with either…
Thanx.
