Amazon.com Review
A perfect gift for new homemakers, the food processor has become an integral part of modern cooking, speeding up a multitude of processes, including kneading dough; slicing; chopping; shredding cheese, vegetables, and meat; mincing garlic and parsley; mixing batters; and emulsifying mayonnaise. Cuisinart's Custom food processor comes with a 14-cup work bowl; five basic attachments for slicing, shredding, chopping, mixing, and kneading; and also features two feed-tube options, one big enough to handle a whole potato. This processor comes with a compact cover for use when the feed tube isn't needed and a pulse control that allows the desired degree of fineness when chopping and puréeing. Remove the detachable stem for compact storage of discs. All the parts are dishwasher-safe and the motor base wipes clean. In addition, a custom-contoured spatula, a recipe booklet, and a 30-minute video designed to familiarize the new owner with the care and use of the food processor are included. --Victoria Jenkins

Customer Reviews

There's such a thing as too much "safety" ...
The Cuisinart food processor is a wonderful tool -- I use it nearly every day, and it slices, chops, purees, and makes pizza dough to perfection. My only complaint is that in an effort to make the machine super-safe they've made it more awkward to use. An old model I had had a feed tube with a "pusher" that could be removed, making it quick and easy to add more vegetables, crackers, etc. The new model has the "pusher" permanently fixed to the feed tube, making it necessary to remove the entire cover in order to add more food. Does the company really think we're so careless that we can't be trusted with the removable pusher? The new version is slower and more awkward to use, and I wish they'd go back to the old system. Nonetheless, it's a wonderful, reliable machine and I'm happy to recommend it.

2 year life span
I share the same disappointment as other reviewers. I ran this unit once a week for 2 years and then it stopped working. The beefy looking hardware is not so durable. Unfortunately this product suffers from the same "China syndrome" that so many products seem to be afflicted with these days.

not worth it
We had this for less than 2 years and finally took it out for some baking, and it doesn't even turn on anymore. All the parts are made in China, what do you expect? Not a high quality tool.
