[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this machine to replace a 20+ year old 11 (possibly 13) cup KitchenAid Food processor. At 20+ years old, my previous KA food processor was still in excellent working order, but it's bowl had broken and was no longer replaceable. I have since mended it, and it is now being passed on to one of the (now adult) children! My mum has owned her big bowl-lift KA stand mixer for 45+ years and had been gifted, or collected on her own, many of the smaller countertop appliances. 25 years ago, while building a new home, they purchased and installed all of the major kitchen appliance with KA appliances (the dishwasher is still operational and used multiple times a day!). As a Christmas gift not long after my first child was born, my parents began gifting my sister and I with our own KA countertop appliances; starting each of us off with the tilt-head stand mixers, which, at the time, only came in white and, occasionally, black. Some years later, KA started releasing them in beautiful, brilliant colors - And I have wanted the red mixer ever since! I could not fathom replacing my well-running KAs with reds ones, though, and I have been waiting for the day my girls could start inheriting my white ones. These machines last FOREVER and are so popular that when mum's white hand mixer finally died, she couldn't get her hands on a new one in the speed she wanted. Our solution was to give her my white one - still running well after 20 years - and, FINALLY, replace it with a red one! This food processor is my second red KA to replace a white one and will shortly be followed by passing down my 23 year old standard tilt-head stand mixer with the Artisan Mini 3.5 qt stand mixer. I have been pleased to find that the new food processor is considerably lighter weight than the original, which led me to research the new Mini stand mixer, hoping for a similar situation - I have become disabled since receiving the original appliances and have had trouble lifting them in order to use them for the last few years. I am so pleased by these machines that I HIGHLY recommend them! They have, truly, become "family heirlooms" in our case!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This handy appliance has been saving me a lot of time! It's great for chopping, grating and perfect for making pie crust!
I purchased this processor over 10 years ago and I believe that the motor will last another 10 years, but the bowl attachment has been replaced 4 times because of cheap plastic parts that break. I never put it in the dishwasher. I really like it but there is a definite problem with the interior workings of the bowl. Motor - good, lid - good, blade - good,
bowl - horrible.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Using 2 months now. Love it. It even works for Keto Fathead dough! I came to this site hoping there were additional balces avaliable like the adjustable slicer. I am unable to find any.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the food processor because I searched for the reviews and I told my husband I want to buy this food processor because the reviews were good. I expect quality but not this quality. It went far away from my expects and I can tell everybody this gadget is perfect. 100% recommended.
