Very powerful motor. Great to be able to use either 12-cup or 4-cup bowls. Design does make it hard to clean inside the lid though. Be prepared to remove the lid gasket every time for cleaning.
I love this food processor. It is the right size to sit on my counter and still fit under the cabinets. I love the two different sized bowls for large or small amounts to be processed. The main reason I bought this model is the adjustable settings on the slicing blade. It is so easy to get the exact thickness you need. You don't have to have six different size blades cluttering up your kitchen, all you need is one. BIG selling point. So far I have cut onions, celery, cabbage, and shredded cooked chicken breast. So easy and fast. I recently watched a youtube video on this model where the presenter stopped working on it because she said that it was not possible to clean under the seal on the lid/cover. This was not an accurate representation of this appliance. You have to make sure that you completely close the front of the lid (spout area) before you start processing. The seal does come out and is very easy to clean. I am glad I purchased this processor before viewing the video. I love this appliance and would recommend it to everybody.
This is my first food processor and I could not have made a better choice. Everything about is simple to do. The included small bowl is such a clever idea & I find myself using it more often than the large bowl. hard to go wrong with this machine.
Love it but would like a thicker slicing blade too

Love the unit... like the adjustable slicing blade.. ONLY reason not 5 stars is that, while other models have a thicker slicing blade (8mm) available for purchase, this one does not.
I love this food processor. It is a perfect size for two. It is easy to use and easy to clean. Having both a large and small processor bowl is fantastic. The small bowl is just right for making hummus. I also love trying out different blades. I knew Cuisinart had a good reputation but this machine is great.
