Don't expect it to last more than 1 year June 26, 2009 S. Rogers 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought a kitchen aid, because I was looking for quality and durability. I loved it...at first...After 1 year and 2 months, my food processor would no longer turn on. My husband called Kitchen Aid...Too bad for me, since the guarantee is only for one year. Manufacturers cause so much waste because of the current greed to make a product that doesn't last. We have landfills full of trash appliances because of the wasteful practices of maufacturers, and is consumers are made to feel it is their fault for using paper grocery bags. Why aren't manufacturers any longer holding to a standard of quality? Because they want more and more of your $$$$? At least paper bags are a renewable resource and go back into the ground. In our grandparents generation an appliance lasted their lifetime, and only the cord needed to be replaced after 50 plus years of marriage...You can still find working toasters of that era at a "reuse" store. I've been married 33 years...My first food processor had a simple turn on switch and was a combination appliance: lasted about 12 years, my next one which I got used had a much more complicated switch: lasted me about 4 years...This one I bought new from Amazon and paid about $250.00 (way more expensive than any other I'd ever bought)had the most complicated off on switch . The engine is perfectly good. The convoluted cheap plastic switch (in which you can no longer put food in while it is running as in previous versions) wore with use to the point it lasted one year and 2 months and now can't turn on. Companies we used to trust have become so greedy, that they no longer make good products. I am very disappointed. What a waste. I no longer have confidence I once had in the Kitchen Aid brand.
Excellent food processor January 21, 2009 Liliam Duenas (Campinas, SP, Brazil) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I received this food processor a few weeks ago and am so pleased! The old one does not allow me to perform the whole recipe in one time. As this model has several bowls, you can use them without clean each time you process something for the recipe. The model is also more silence than the old one.
I didn't like the citrus juicer, I could not use it very well.
We love it - and a couple of tips January 18, 2009 Murky's Mom (Sunnyvale, California) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
We bought this Kitchenaid a few months ago - after 20+ years of using a Cuisinart - and couldn't be more pleased. The Amazon reviews on both the Kitchenaid and the Cuisinart were what helped us make the decision.
Two things I noticed that people had complained about:
1. Getting plastic shards in food - this happens ONLY when the bowl gets too full. [I know from experience :-)]. While it is apparently a design flaw, you can avoid it by emptying the bowl before it gets full.
2. Food getting caught inside. There are several bowls in this food processor. I couldn't get the next-to-largest out of the main bowl - I tried all kinds of things to remove it, but no luck - and didn't want to break it... Food particles _did_ get between the two bowls. I was able to wash them out, but what a waste of water. Last night, as I was emptying some veggies out of it, the next-to-largest bowl fell out. I'm not putting it back in!
And a tip! Do read the directions before using this if you're a Cuisinart user - on the Kitchenaid, you _must_ remove the top before removing the bowl from the base.
Happy cooking!
This is quality. January 7, 2009 M. Swan 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
My wife and I are very satisfied with this food processor.
Note: It comes with extra blades, bowl scraper, shreaders, slicers, juicer attachment, dough blade and so on all in a neatly organized storage case.
Very happy.
Not a real chef November 10, 2008 Lady the Rook (Alaska) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I wish I had ordered one of these years ago. I bought plastic replacement parts for my cuisinart twice. This one works well, quietly, and handles the loads of veggies I process with ease. Love it. I wish I had bought it it designer red. The only thing I don't like is that I always end up washing all three bowls, even if I only use the little chopper. How do you keep the outer bowls clean? The rim of the bowl gets food into it which fall down between the bowls and I end up rinsing all, at the very least. If this processor lasts without replacements for any decent amount of time, I will offer a full 5 stars, however, so ask me for my opinion in 5 years.
