 Cuisinart is better September 11, 2008
Jenna Sibley (Chico, CA)
The bowl leaks on mine when I process soups or liquidy mixtures. I'm going back to my Cuisinart and returning this item. Also, the motor doesn't seem as powerful and the top tube is akward for loading.

A good product at a good price. Like so many products, manufacturers load
them up with safety switches that are made to keep people from injuring themsesves, that probably shouldn't be operating any kind of equipment, under any circumstances. Prevents lawsuits by these people, so I guess they serve their purpose.
I thought I followed the directions for assembly to the letter, but I ended up having to call customer service, and found out one little thing I hadn't done right. I have to say, if all employees were like the one I talked to, it would sure make people's lives simpler. He even registered it for me.

Fantastic item that makes cooking in the kitchen even more fun! A real work horse you can do so many things from making your pie dough, shredding cheese, chopping vegetables, even juicing oranges and grapefruits for that special cocktail.
Another great KitchenAid product May 14, 2008

The title says it all. I have been a KitchenAid fan for a number of years. My industrial mixer is still going strong and I am sure that this food processor will deliver the same. The first thing that impressed me about this processor is it weight (it doesn't move around, even while kneading dough) and it is relatively quiet, considering the power of the motor. The three stacking bowls are handy and the citrus press makes a quick job of fresh OJ. All in all, this is a fine machine.
 Great tool with a few niggles April 29, 2008

I've been using this food processor for two and a half months now, and I'm very impressed. Mind you, its my first food processor so I might not know better, but it seems to tackle anything I can throw at it. On dry stuff like vegetables it will chop more than I can hold in my largest saute pan, so thats enough for me. Nuts chop pretty well, but not that great. Really wet things can be a problem because the fill line at which everything will leak out is about half-way up. Thats deceptive, especially for someone who hasn't used it before.
More than once I've asked someone to mix something with it and they tried to fill it all the way up and we had a waterfall of cake batter, salad dressing (really thin stuff too) or whatever.
Since I don't have a real mixer I've had to use this food processor for that duty too, and the mixing blade does a great job. Although I may still get a mixer, its not important. The egg beater attachment also works superbly. People raved for over a week about the lemon meringue pie I made with it.
Besides the above listed problems with the mini bowl doing a so-so job of chopping nuts (and most anything else short of corn flakes) and the deceptive fill-line issue, I'd have one more problem. It didn't work one night and I couldn't figure out why. It seems the bowl has to be in perfect alignment with the top and the base, which is all well and good. But one day I did everything as normal and it just wouldn't turn on. I had to jam a fork into the safety switch on the bowl to finish dinner. I called KitchenAid and they were helpful. They gave a very specific way to put it together and it seems to work again.
But all in all its become an essential tool in my repertoire. I've been able to tackle recipes that I would have otherwise disregarded and completed tasks in a few minutes that would have taken me an hour of manual chopping.
Oh, BTW, this sucker is HEAVY!
