 The Cadillac of food processors! December 14, 2006

This food processor works like a dream! It's faster, quieter, just all around better than any other food processor I've used! It also hold a lot more. Every time I use it, it surprises me how quiet it quickly chops through anything. I just keep on feeding it foods of all shapes, sizes and textures and it whips through them in a flash with little more than a hum. I would definitely buy this again but won't have to for many decades to come. This is top of the line, a real great gift for yourself or others, I got mine when I was asked what I wanted as a gift by my family. Just to let you know, my brother got a new GTO, and I asked for this food processor and couldn't be more pleased!

I've had a Cuisinart DLC-11 for the past 20 years and it still works.
I decided to purchase this one based upon its larger capacity. It is superior to the older one in almost every way. Cuisinart has managed to improve the cover latching system, without making it cumbersome and hard to use (like on the KitchenAid that I tried at Williams-Sonoma).
The "dough" button appears to direct more torque to the blade, and the metal dough blade performs better than the former plastic one (although the old plastic blade has whipped up many a batch of pizza dough).
This unit also has a set of wire beaters, something that I do not believe I will get much use out of, since I am a mixer junkie and have 3 stand mixers (KitchenAid, Kenwood and DeLonghi). I think I'll leave the whipping to them.
The discs with the detachable stem perform admirably, as does the feed chute on this unit. I recommend purchasing the disc storage units from Cuisinart - if not for safety, certainly to keep the discs organized and ready to go to work. My DLC-11 discs were scattered throughout the drawers in the kitchen, making it easier to get a knife and a cutting board and chop, rather than conduct a treasure hunt through the kitchen to find the particular disc I needed. Keeping things organized in the kitchen is important - it makes it more fun to cook.
This unit is powerful and quiet, and intelligently designed.
 Expensive for a food processor May 3, 2006

I've never owned a food processor before and my wife wanted one, so I compulsively compared details/features of all the food processors I could find and decided that this was the Rolls Royce (excluding strictly commercial machines). I watched this item for months waiting for the right deal and eventually bought it from The Wiz for $283 including shipping... So far, we've used it twice in the month we've had it for VERY BASIC food processing tasks. It did exactly what we wanted, but it's large for small tasks and expensive for the casual user. I would recommend it based on quality, but for my small, non-food processor-oriented family there's a less expensive KitchenAid model that offers two bowl sizes (a large one for big jobs and a small one for little jobs) might have been a better choice.
Fabulous! December 9, 2005

Wonderful, wonderful.
I've had 2 previous food processors - a Himilton Beach, and then the 7 cup Cuisinart which leaked (sprayed) if I was doing any sauces. This MP-14 is like Dorothy stepping out of her house into techni-color Munchkin Land!
It's simple to use, quiet, and powerful. The DVD that comes with it shows you how to make pizza crust (which is good because the cookbook doesn't explain it well). The 2-size-feeder tube option is great - now I can slice whole potatoes and still do a single carrot.
It also has a separate button/speed for dough and has a variety of recipes for breads. The motor is so strong you needn't worry about making whatever you want.
It is a sleek, handsome machine which really adds to my kitchen. The 14-cup capacity is perfect - I don't have to worry about making cole slaw or any other large recipe. I'm so glad I finally took the plunge and got the best of the best.
Enjoy!

I just ordered and received, from Amazon.com, a Cuisinart MP-14 (Limited Edition Metal 14-cup Food Processor. This new Cuisinart replaces my original 1977 Cuisinart, bought to make baby food for my infant daughter. Of course, as anyone who has ever used a high quality food processor knows, by 1978 that Cuisinart had seen a lot more, and a lot heavier duty than mere baby food pureeing! That original Cuisinart is still going strong, but resides with my daughter, now an adult and newly married. She laid claim to the Cuisinart somewhere during her high school baking and breadmaking phase, and instead of registering for a new model during her wedding, she happily absconded with mine when she set up her household and I took off for life in SW Florida. After a year without my Cuisinart, and making do with a small, outdated Oster mini processor, I gave myself a Valentine's gift an bought the Cuisinart MP-14. Why?
-Because I am tired of hand making the bread doughs I love to grill as pizza or flat bread over the open flame of our outdoor grill.
-Because I am tired of scraped knuckles and sliced fingers from hand graters and razor sharp mandolines when shredding or thin slicing veggies for slaws, tempuras, or Potatoes Anna.
-Because I like to grate hard and soft cheeses in bulk for adding to lasagnas, topping pizzas, or blending into savory shortbreads and hor d'oeuvre pastries.
-Because I like to make my own chopped pork and beef mixture for Swedish meatballs.
-Because I love the speed and ease of a food processor in making bread crumbs, apple crisp and pie crumb toppings, chopping chocolate and nuts, and mincing and blending large quantities of garlic or herbs for dips, herb butters and spreads, or pestos.
-Because my daughter also laid claim to my heavy duty KitchenAid mixer, and it looks like this whisk attachment is going to be fine for mixing cheesecake batters, whipping cream or putting the final whip finish on mashed potatoes, as well as frothing the egg custard foundations to chocolate mousses and flourless cakes.
-Because I believe in the Cuisinart product line, which has proven itself to me for decades. I believe my newest Cuisinart will to be worth every penny, and perform flawlessly and efficiently for generations to come!
-And because maybe, just maybe -- in the not too distant future -my new MP-14 will whip up even more wickedly wonderful batchs of baby foods! Cuisinart - I love you, and I adore this new 14 cup heavy duty MP 14 with whisk attachment, bread dough mixing blade and the dough setting to prevent overheating the dough. You are making my Valentine's Day very sweet indeed!
