Customer Reviews for Cuisinart - Elite Collection 4-Cup Food Processor - Die-Cast

I recently purchased the Cuisinart Elite Collection 4 Cup Chopper/Grinder, and I must report how delighted I am in its quality and performance. It is simple to use and is just the right size equipment to prepare hummus, pesto and a variety of other recipes with very little effort. Its blades are powerful and has the ability to chop garlic, onions and grind hard nuts and spices effortlessly. I also have the much larger Cuisinart food processor which I cherish and use for much larger recipes. I am so very pleased with this purchase and I'm sure I will be using it for many years to come. For those of you looking to purchase a smaller food processor give this equipment a try, I'm sure you will be pleased with it as well.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I live alone in a very small apartment--I received this 4 cup chopper as a gift from my daughter-in-law at Christmas and it is my go-to food prep tool now, Had your 2 cup which is great but mostly nuts, pesto etc but this 4 cup I use to puree small batches of soup, hummus, fruit smoothies! Living alone, no room for extra appliances--wonderful product.

A great size for mincing small quantities of vegetables, cheese and to make sauce bases. I had my original for about 20 years! Easy to clean. Performs very well. I dropped the bowl on the tile and caused a crack. Thus I ordered a new one.

Love this machine. My first one lasted 40+ years even after using it nearly everyday. I’m sure my new one will last a longtime too. Plus, my children love it so much that I’m getting them one for their upcoming birthdays. Then I won’t have to worry about mine suddenly disappearing to one of their kitchens!!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Purchased two, one for each house. Both of them broke where the plastic meets the metal blade. This happened within a year of purchase. Recommend you purchase a different brand.

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Cuisinart® Elite Collection™ 4‑Cup Chopper/Grinder, model CH‑4DC, and we’re sorry to hear about the durability issues you encountered. To help reduce stress on internal components, we recommend processing smaller batches, using short pulses instead of continuous operation, and avoiding very hard ingredients, which can place added strain on the blade assembly over time. Our Consumer Assistance Center can review your concerns and warranty options—please contact 1‑800‑726‑0190 and reference Ticket #8900582097 for assistance. Thank you for your feedback, as it helps us identify areas for improvement in future models.
