It will do, but not for people who cook a lot. I had my 11 cup Cuisinart for a very long time and finally decided that rather than replace the bowl at a steep price, I would get this small F.P. as I don't cook as much anymore. I have learned that it's OK for a few smallish jobs such as grinding up Parm, but it won't get the same use as a large machine due to the reduced power and volume.

This is the second one of these we have owned - it works great! Perfect size for most things we need it for. Powerful Nd easy to use / clean. Highly recommend!
I would recommend this to a friend!

The cover has a very small opening for adding liquids when processing. A medicine type dropper is needed, the opening is so small. I tried adding olive oil using a small measuring cup with a small pouring spout. Even adding it very slowly it was very messy. Would not buy this model again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Bought to chop nuts and does a good job with this. Tried to chop cabbage and carrots for slaw. It basically pureed both on the chop mode. Not very pleased with this. The other option is grind, which would not work for either. It's got good power, so we'll see what else we can use it for.
