Surprisingly quiet! But it won’t slice full cucumb

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This KitchenAid food processor has a lot going for it. It's a KitchenAid product, so its clever design and quality build are to be expected, and it doesn't disappoint in those aspects. This appliance is very simple and intuitive to use, and all the blades and accessories are easily stored right in the work bowl itself. It comes with a multipurpose blade for chopping, mincing, mixing, or puréeing. It even kneads dough! There's also a cutting disc included for slicing and shredding things like vegetables, fruits, cheese, and chocolate. Foods are inserted into the feed tube, helped along by the food pusher, and they are processed, whether sliced or minced or shredded, very quickly. This machine makes short work of whatever is thrown at it, at least in my limited experience. My favorite thing about it might be how incredibly quiet it is! My Ninja makes an awful racket, regardless of what operation is selected, and I expected this KitchenAid processor to do the same. To my surprise, it's actually shockingly quiet! My husband was standing in the kitchen when I first used it, and he thought I hadn't. even turned it. It's not completely silent, of course, but it isn't loud at all, so you can have a conversation while it's doing its thing, and that's a great feature. I also love that this thing isn't too heavy, and it's so easy to wash that it nearly cleans itself.
Unfortunately, there are a few problems with this machine, at least for me, personally. The first is relatively minor, but will probably be true for many other people, and that is that this food processor is too tall to fit underneath my upper cabinets, so I can't keep it on my countertop. That's not a big problem, but it is something of an inconvenience. However, for me, the bigger problem I have with it is that it doesn't work well for some of the particular foods I most frequently need to chop or slice. For example, I use cucumbers a lot, whether in salads or smoothies or to add to water. For salads, I like to slice them, but standard American cucumbers won't fit through the feed tube in the lid of this device. I have to cut them lengthwise into halves or even quarters, which isn't how I want to present my cucumber slices.
Another vegetable I use almost daily is the onion. While I could use this food processor to slice or chop them, I can't get a decent-sized dice, and that's what most of my recipes require. This machine chopped my onions, sure, but the pieces were kind of raggedy and not uniform in size.
Overall, I think this is a really good kitchen appliance. The design is mostly good, though the assembled machine is too tall to stand on most countertops without interference from upper cabinetry. Its operation is smooth and effective, and surprisingly quiet, but none of that matters if it doesn't work on the foods I use most often. Depending on your needs, I would say this processor deserves somewhere between 3.5 and 4 stars. I'll round up for a generous 4-star rating, but with some major caveats. I hope KitchenAid will improve some of these flaws in future versions.

Super user friendly and easy to use food processor

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hey everyone! Today, I’m beyond excited to share my experience with the KitchenAid 7 Cup Food Processor. This little kitchen gem has quickly become a staple in my cooking routine, and I can't wait to tell you all about it!
**First Impressions and Key Features**
Right out of the box, I was struck by how sleek and compact the KitchenAid 7 Cup Food Processor is. Its design is not only aesthetically pleasing but also incredibly functional. One of my absolute favorite features is the all-in-one storage solution. Yes, you heard that right! All the blades and discs nest perfectly inside the 7-cup work bowl. This makes storage a breeze and keeps my kitchen organized, which is a huge plus for me.
**Making Hummus: A Delightful Experience**
The first thing I made with this food processor was a classic hummus. Let me tell you, it was so much better then store bought! The snap-and-go, easy-clean work bowl made the process so effortless. The bowl's twist-free, one-click assembly with a latched lid is brilliant – no more struggling to align and twist bowls into place. I tossed in my chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and a splash of olive oil, and in minutes, I had the freshest, creamiest hummus I've ever tasted. The flavors were so vibrant, and knowing it was made from scratch added a special touch.
**Versatility and Ease of Use**
This food processor isn't just a one-trick pony. With its multi-purpose blade and reversible slice/shred disc, I've been able to chop, shred, slice, and puree a variety of ingredients. From fresh veggies for salads to cheeses and sauces for dinner, it handles everything with ease. The 2-in-1 feed tube is a thoughtful addition, allowing me to process different ingredient shapes and sizes without pre-cutting. Tomatoes, cucumbers, potatoes – you name it, this machine can handle it.
The controls are incredibly intuitive. With three-speed options – High, Low, and Pulse – I can precisely manage the consistency I need. The easy-press paddles and illuminated LED controls make the operation smooth and straightforward, even for a kitchen novice.
**Cleaning Up: A Breeze**
Cleaning up after a big cooking session can often be a chore, but not with this food processor. The leak-resistant bowl, coupled with the ability to add warm water and a few drops of dish soap, means I can quickly and efficiently clean the bowl and blades. It’s a simple yet effective feature that saves me so much time and effort.
**Final Thoughts**
The KitchenAid 7 Cup Food Processor is a fantastic addition to any kitchen. Its design is thoughtful and user-friendly, making meal prep not only quicker but also more enjoyable. Whether you're a seasoned chef or just starting out, this food processor will undoubtedly elevate your cooking game. Plus, the convenience of storing everything inside the bowl is a huge bonus that keeps your kitchen neat and tidy.
If you’re in the market for a versatile, reliable, and easy-to-use food processor, I highly recommend giving the KitchenAid 7 Cup Food Processor a try. Happy cooking, everyone!

A must have item for homecook, especially if you h

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This thing is really a beauty!! and shes not just all looks (if you know what i mean) Im a home cook that cooks 6/7 days and it help a lot with making my own sauces, nut butters, and not to mention shredding stuff (carrot my nemesis)
This KitchenAid food processor has some heft into them, so i would say that they are pretty durable and hopefully they will last a long time! the 7 cup capacity is a huge improvement from my old 2 cups, so definitely a huge huge love!!
cleaning it is not too easy, you have to be careful with the sharp blades, but i see that it does not stain easily after i make my own red colored sauces which is nice!

the high setting noise is a bit loud, especially with bigger chunks of food or harder food, but same as any other blender/ food processor i think.
overall, 9/10, really hope that it will last me a long time! have other KitchenAid stuff that last me a long time, so not too worried!
