=A340 today. 1.2l soup, not 1.7l as advertised. By only adding the cooked/t= inned items and liquids at the end it can make a fair bit more in one go.
Pros: no need to watch boiling things, no need to get multiple items dirty,= set and forget. 3yr warranty. Does smooth, chunky, and mix of both.
Cons: not a single part is dishwashable, and of course the self clean routi= ne was just a salesman's dream. A lot of unusually loud and entirely pointl= ess beeping.

I tend to go for large batches when making soup, and used to use a Kenwood liquidiser attachment. It gave a good result, but was messy and time consuming, its capacity being small compared to the pan.
The answer was a Bamix hand-held blender - fast and easy. Also great for non-lumpy sauces.

Not Bamix, but very definitely a stick blender.
We often make two different soups at the same time - which is no problem with a quick rinse of the stick blender. But would be tedious with any liquidiser-based approach.
Also much better if you want to end up with a semi-chunky/semi-smooth soup.
I cannot speak for the Aldi soup maker, however I have the Culishart model, that is excellent. I make a lot of soup and that is the easiest way I have found. Plus there is no serious washing up after!"

Perhaps we are greedy gits, but partner and I can easily polish off 1.2 litres (or more!) of freshly made soup as a meal. And when we make any, we almost invariably do enough for at least two portions each - and the second (or third) simply get chilled until tomorrow, or frozen.
So we do not need to get pans out, watch it, etc., every soup day. Whereas with that machine we would have to do whatever it needs every soup day.
Indeed, with such a machine we would need to get out the chopping boards, knives, etc., every day we wanted soup.
I cannot understand your price analysis. But I would be comparing against non-machine made soup rather than cans. (I either make soup or buy soup. It is almost never a case of substituting bought for for home-made or vice versa.) So, for the equivalent bowlful, the ingredient cost would be unchanged. Savings would have to be found in other costs - electricity/gas, washing up, etc.
My money is on it being in the back of a kitchen cupboard within 2 months (and with your 23 uses never reached) and off to a car boot sale in 5 years when it's "rediscovered".
