I found this model at a local warehouse store and bought it after much debate about whether to go for the Cuisinart or the Kitchenaid. I’m glad I went for this model. It costs less than the Kitchenaid and therefore doesn’t have as many gadgets with it, but for my needs at the moment 2 slicing/shredding discs and a 2 blades (pureeing/mixing and dough blade) are good enough for me. The quality of the processor is great. Easy to assemble and the work bowl is very easy to clean. The work bowl has been redesigned from earlier models with little oval openings in the handle in case any water gets in while washing, so it will dry out thoroughly.
The safety features are great too. My first couple times using the machine I didn’t have the bowl properly attached, so after a few seconds of me thinking I got a lemon because nothing happened when I pushed the ON button, I realized it was the error of my ways for not attaching the work bowl properly on the base.
It has lots of power. I got it for myself at Christmas 2009 and I’ve made salsas, pestos, dips. It shreds cheese like a dream. I’ve sliced every kind of vegetable I could think of slicing, and I LOVE this machine. I love cooking and never really minded doing all the prep with chopping veggies but I’ve had a epiphany with this processor. It’s now my superhero in the kitchen.
And the another great bonus is that it comes with a 10 year warranty. Kitchenaid only has a 1 year warranty which also made me very leary about that product. If a company can stand behind the quality of their product why only give it a warranty for 1 year. (Not to diss Kitchenaid, I have a stand mixer from them that I love) but I felt more comfortable buying a processor that came with a 10 year warranty. But remember folks, read the manual before using it. After reading hundreds of reviews on food processors before buying one for myself, I came to the conclusion that alot of low reviews were because of user error.

I have never owned or used a food processor. I have been researching them and collecting opinions for a few days now. I decided on this one based on a very similar Cuisinart I looked at in a store. I ended up buying this one because it was nearly identical but about $30 less. The only thing I have not been able to figure out is how powerful the motor is, but I decided that what mattered was whether it did what I needed it to do.
So I came home and watched the DVD and read through the instruction book. I decided first to make hummus, which I have always made in a blender or with an immersion blender. I was never able to get it as smooth as I’d like it and I hoped a food processor would take care of that for me. After that I planned to make orange bran flax muffins, which I also used to make in a blender, which left some chunks of orange peel a bit larger than I’d prefer.
The hummus was easy to put together since the bowl is larger than I used to work with for blending needs. I turned it on and started cleaning up while it blended away. It came out beautifully blended and smoother than any hummus I ever made with other appliances. But this should be easy for a food processor. I was pleased that cleanup was so easy, just hand-washing the pieces, to move on to the muffins.
These muffins take 2 whole oranges, which need to be blended. The blender handled them OK, but left some chunks of peel I was never able to completely get rid of. The food processor took care of it completely and easily. I was very pleased with the consistency.
My only problem was user error and I will share this for other food processor newbies. I totally missed the “max liquid level.” The orange mixture came out and ran across the counter. Oops. I poured it into a big bowl and blended one half then the other.
So my end result is I am unsure if I should get a bigger capacity food processor, but I have little space and this one worked so well and looks so nice I think I will keep it.

I know I sound like everyone else, but after a TON of research, I decided to go with a Cuisinart. I found this 11 cup Custom Prep brushed stainless at Costco for $149. Although it didn’t have many reviews yet, I liked the fact that it had a large opening to drop food in, was brushed stainless and an excellent price.
It is the most simple thing to use and even easier to clean up. I love to cook and usually spend hours chopping. I now realize that I should have bought one much sooner! it is quiet and powerful and looks good too. The first thing I made with it was potato salad. What would have normally taken me an hour and 1/2 to chop everything, only took me 4 minutes…WOW! It chops a full onion perfectly in seconds. I’d HIGHLY recommend this!
