I researched before making a decision on a food processor. This is probably more than I really need, but the quality is unmatched and the versatility makes it invaluable in my kitchen. It takes up a great deal of counter space, but considering its usefulness, that is fine with me. Cleanup has been easy. It's built like a tank. I look forward to cooking with this for decades to come.
This is my 1st processor - ever. I wanted something that would make my food prep easier. It has taken me awhile to learn how to use it, and I still haven't used everything. However, it is easy to clean. It is also rather large on my small counter, but I'm glad I bought it.
Works great with its functions. Not a heavy user and not used all functions yet. But its a lot of cleaning for little use, like dicing a vegetable just for one meal. Ideal for professional and bulk use.
Being über quite and powerful, with an attention to detail, makes this the ideal food processor. It dices beautifully. I'd never owned Breville before -- it's an entirely different level of good.
