Making your own baby food

So Malakai is 5 months and he will be getting his first taste of baby food in a month!!! Im so excited to feed him for the first time. Any how, I want to make his baby food. I am a stay at home mom and this would be ideal for me. Also, I want what is best for my baby and I want to know exactly what is going into his little body.
I've been looking at food processors, baby food makers, blenders, etc. etc. I have so many mixed feelings. The Baby Brezza at Babies r us has mixed reviews. The Beaba food maker is in the same boat as far as reviews go. I know it seems kind of silly to spend a lot of money on these little baby food makers when I could just steam it in a pot and blend it BUT im a little bit of a freak when it comes to Malakai having his OWN things that haven't been contaminated by us adults. I don't know what to do as far as buying what is best.
Can anyone please help me? If you have had one of the baby food makers can you give me your opinion or if you make your own baby food can you let me know what works best for you?

Need to update a ticker, Silas Anthony Jordon born Oct 11, 2013. 6th baby, so much love!
You might want to check out the book Super Baby Food, or some of the ones by Anabel Karmel to get you excited and give you ideas. I know without a nice list of which foods to offer when I would run out of ideas for E. She loves food and really is enjoying the whole process. And I really like that even at 8 months we can go anywhere and find food for her. We never carry food with us which has been great.
We plan on steaming food and using our blender. We registered for the Baby Brezza but didn't get it, so we're just going to make do with what we have. Keep us posted!
i got the book the best homemade baby food on the planet and I really like it. http://www.babyearth.com/karin-knight-with-tina-ruggiero-the-best-homemade-baby-food-on-the-planet-recipe-book.html
