I am an at home cook and better than most, so say my friends and relatives. I just broke my Mother’s original Cuisinart that was most likely 40 years old. I remember her excitement when she brought it home! There is no need to say “Cuisinart food processor” because that would be redundant. It was the only appliance they sold in the U.S. originally.
I was making Pignoli Nut cookies this past Christmas and the Almond paste proved too dense for the old motor. It groaned and stopped and I smelled it burning. I knew it was done. I cried. And then cried and cried some more. 💔 That machine was not only a staple on both our kitchen counters, it held such happy memories of watching my Mom cook and prepare fantastic creations for our family. So many life discussions and decisions took place over that aplliance…
When I cleaned out her last house I found four more versions of Cuisinart food processors with all of their accoutrements in a cabinet. Obviously, the one she passed on to me, the OG in current vernacular, was her favorite. Although I am skeptical that this new one will last 40 years, I sure won’t be around to find out. I am hopeful it is the first and last food processor I have to purchase.
Thank you Cuisinart, and bravo for earning top rank in my family’s kitchen experiences, for all of the wonderful memories, and for being an integral part of making me the at-home chef that I am today!
Purchased as a replacement for my beloved work horse 11-cup Pro Processor that worked like a trojan in my kitchen for 12 years. I like that this one is lighter and that, like all Cuisinart kitchen equipment, it's very easy to operate, clean and store. So far, it feels like it delivers excellently, handled the slightly larger quantities I needed for Christmas catering, and still worked efficiently making soup for two. Highly recommended over a smaller volume machine.
I am super happy with this food processor! It does absolutely everything I would ever want it to do. Everything I’ve put through it has come out on the other end consistent. No jam ups. Each and every morsel is cut, chopped, or shredded consistent. This processor has made life so much easier for me! Thank you Cuisinart!
This is my second core custom processor, I completely wore out the first one. I am very happy to be able to use the dicing blades from my first one with my new one. And with the addition of the blender component I am able free up counter space. I am very pleased with this food processor.
