I bought this a frw months ago and i am amazed by its ability to do anything I have asked of it. It is truly a "Workhorse". It shreads cheese beautifuly, slices potatoes and carrots very easily. I use it weekly and am very glad I made the purchase! I love it as it has performed flawlessly!
I bought my first Cuisinart roughly 36 years ago. Weirdly it was similar to this model which I have come back to after trying 1 other brand and 1 tricked out Cuisinart that did not last as long or cleanup as easily as this classic model. Good old fashioned and reliable paddle levers for operation - I'll never deviate again!
I wish I had purchased this years ago. The classic design looks amazing on my counter and is a real work horse. I have shredded cheese, cabbage, diced onions, made salsa, pie crust and pizza dough. It's powerful yet quiet.
I purchased this before the holidays last year and used it extensively at that time. Since then, I'm becoming more and more accustomed to it and find I'm using it for lots of food preparations. I'm only sorry I waited so long to get one!
