Amazon.com Review
Two powerful kitchen appliances have been brought together in this blender/food processor by Cuisinart. The heavy-duty motor base is up to both blending and processing tasks, and won't "walk" on the counter, even when it's crushing ice. Use the blender with its dripless pour spout to make and serve 40 ounces of frozen drinks or to puree baby foods or soups; use the processor to prep up to 3 cups of vegetables, cheeses, nuts, and meats. With one motor base, it's simple to keep the blender out on the counter and then bring out the processor attachment for special tasks.

This is an amazingly sturdy product, with tight-fitting lids, a heavy glass blender jar, and a motor that chops meat or ice with equal aplomb. Most attachments are dishwasher-safe, and the flat touch pad, which has seven settings (including ice crush and pulse), is easily wiped down with a sponge. The dual appliance comes with a booklet that explains how to use all the features and lists 48 recipes, from cranberry-orange mimosas to classic mayonnaise. --Maria Dolan

Editor's note: This is a reconditioned small appliance. Reconditioned generally means that the appliance has been returned to the manufacturer, who returns the appliance to like-new condition. Some appliances may contain cosmetic blemishes.

4 out of 5 stars Love my new blender/food processor   May 24, 2008
Kim209 (Modesto, CA USA)
I love it. Was a little concerned that it didn't have as many buttons as my last one but it hasn't been a problem. I got it to make smoothies that blend for 5 min (in order to froth up and be more filling) and after 5 min it does get a little warm but so far so good.

The product is great. The noise level on the machine is a bit loud for a blender, and I thought that was due to it being a reconditioned model. However, a family member also has one that was purchased brand new, and she says hers is very loud as well.

The service was great, too. I received the item in the time stated and it was in good condition and packed well.

This is my second Cuisinart Duet. My first one, a piece of the plastic that locks the processor bowl to the platform broke off after about three uses. I figured I must have done something wrong, so I returned it and bought another one. Same thing happened to the second one. Food Processor still works, but I have to hold on tight to keep it in locked position. It's not great at chopping either, even before it broke. My small $25 chopper works just as well, if not better.
The blender portion of it won't even puree frozen strawberries. As another reviewer mentioned, yes it is cute and I love the dual function, but if it's not going to serve its full intended purpose, why buy it? Buy beware!

I have this model, and I'm sorry I didn't heed the advice of others. Though it's NOT BAD for the price, it is loud and a bit on the cheap/flimsy side. You can't put anything too hard in it, i.e.; carrots. It's not ment to be used like a medeocre grade food processor. Mine smells like it's going to combust into flames if I try to do too much with it--like shreading too many veggies. It IS cute, and does work well for marinates and sauces, but beyond that, buyer BEWARE, or just fork over dinero for something of a higher grade.


5 out of 5 stars Oops I reviewed this on the non reconditioned Duet   November 14, 2007

so a fast recap here. Arrived in perfect shape. Works perfect so far. Will give it one heck of a work out thanksgiving holiday. I am very happy so far with my purchase. And a really fast delivery.

This is the second reconditioned item I have bought. Both came in brand new shape and performed flawlessly. I think from now on I will hunt for the factory reconditioned appliances. What a marvelous bargain they both have been.


Thanksgiving has come and gone and my little duet had a good little workout. It is not perfect. When using the shredder there were invariabley a few chunked non shredded pieces, but that was the only fault I could find with this. I am very happy so far with the function of this little appliance. Now if it will last a few years I will be a happy granny type person.
