My husband gave me a Cuisinart DLC7 40 years ago and it is still working. , but whenever I broke a part on the bowl the parts became very hard to find. I researched and found this Cuisinart and am very pleased with it. The weight is comparable to the one my husband bought for me so many years ago. I had many blades with my other old one, but mainly only used the slicing or grateing disks. With this one only has two disk , but the grating disk had adjustable sizes in it, so that is good. I don’t have to store so many disks. This one also has a retractable cord, which I love. So far I am very very pleased with my purchase. They say the parts are dishwasher safe, but I plan on washing mine by hand. I’m wondering if the hot water may eventually break down the plastic bowl. Just being on the safe side.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great heavy duty machine but shredding parm was not to my liking. Machine bucked with the rind of the cheese & the grind not good with the blade used. I’ve used a Kitchen Aid for over 20 years & cheese grind blade fine. The Cuisinart was not good. All that aside, it’s a power horse, I’ll simply use my Mulinex for cheese.

The small blade had a factory made imperfection at the the area where the blade fit onto the base. My concern was that over time the plastic would erode and chip off into the food. I was sent a new blade that had a smaller imperfection as the first blade bit it was smoother and I didn't feel it would erode with use over time.
