Amazon.com Review
Your culinary imagination is the limit with this accessory disc set containing three precisely engineered stainless-steel discs. A unique pattern of teeth enables the fine shredding disc to produce lace-like strands of tough ingredients like hard root vegetables and hard cheeses, shred chocolate and coconut, and shred cheddar cheese for tacos. The french fry-cut disc is ideal for 1/4-inch square julienne vegetable, french fries, and crudités, and the medium slicing disc cuts vegetables and partially frozen meats for stir-frying and slices fruit the right thickness for tarts. The discs are dishwasher-safe and come with a three-year limited warranty. --Victoria Jenkins

Customer Reviews

You do not need them all
The set contains medium shredding disc, 4-mm slicing disc and 6x6 french fry disc. But medium shredding disc and 4 mm slicing discs are already included with the food processor. The only new thing in this set is the french fry disc, so you do not need the set, do not waste your money, just go and buy french fry disc, if you need it. It will cost you probably two times less. By the way, amazon.com stopped selling the french fry discs separately, and this stinks.

You need an adapter for these discs.
The blades on these discs are heavy, sharp and well made. But you need a detachable stem accessory to use them for my food processor (a DC-5 series). The stem did not come with the discs or the processor, is not currently available from Amazon. I finally found it at the Cuisinart website.

Cuisinary Quality
As with all things Cuinart, the quality is excellent. The prices are a bit steep, but you pay for an item that will last and last. All the blades I've purchased have been a useful addition to the processor itself. Since I've expanded my collection of discs, I've been using my processor far more than before. So if you don't want to get inspired, then I recommend you limit yourself to those discs that accompanied your processor.
