I purchased the food process in late October just in time for Thanksgiving and Christmas baking. The food process has been so much fun to use. It has made preparing desserts so much easier and saved me lots of time.

Bought a 13 cup food processor. After 3 to 4 months of using it, among other things, to shred Gouda cheese, the power transmission coupling in the main bowl failed. No more power could be transmitted to use any of the accessories. Household use. Only manufacturer recommended usage. Now I'm struggling with Cuisinart to make warranty valid, since I've had the appliance for 2.5 years before failure. It has great accessories. Just wish that quality could match them.

This machine makes life in the kitchen so much easier. It can process the items in a short time and truly cuts down on prep time. Once you have this machine, you’ll wonder how you did without it, because you’ll use this more than your think.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This replaced an old and much loved Pro Custom 11 that gave up the ghost after more than a decade of very heavy use. It's very powerful, and all the attachments make food prep a breeze. That the entire bowl is sealed at the bottom is a gift - no more having to hold the blade with one hand to prevent leaks! For jobs that don't require the main bowl, the bowl insert is perfect for whipping up smaller batches. The main blade sits very close to the bottom of the bowl, which ensures that no chunks of unprocessed food are sitting beneath the blade. The dicing kit and the tool case were a nice bonus. If you're looking for a workhorse in your kitchen at a reasonable price, you can't go wrong with this model. Highly recommend!

I have had a Cuisinart since 1984. Although it was completely functional, this new Cuisinart advertised some additional elements that my old didn't have, so I bought it. It was quite different from my old machine, and it took some time to figure out how to use it. It has a much bigger footprint than my old machine, has many more parts that require cleaning, and the dicing tool doesn't really dice hard vegetables like carrots, which was a main reason I bought the new machine. It's far easier just to use a knife. For the "usual" functions the old Cuisinart performed, this tool is effective, but again, there are so many pieces and parts to clean that I didn't think it was worth replacing my old machine. Storage is also an issue. My old machine fit nicely into a tall cabinet; the extra blades didn't have to be stored in a separate case, so I had to rearrange my cabinets to accommodate the extra tools and I now keep the Cuisinart on my countertop because it was too tall for my cabinet. This was an expensive toy, although I'm getting used to it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
