Food Processor Reviews

I've been using this for over two years several times a week without a hitch.

Even batches of pizza dough don't bog this machine down. The grater works well, as do all the accessories. We bought the juicer, which grates the fruit or vegetable while spinning the pulp to extract the juice and it works like a charm.

As I said, we use this item more than any other appliance with great success. I highly recommend it.

just received this processor a few days ago from amazon. bought it for myself because i wanted a food processor but didnt need a big bulky one (i live alone). so far i reallly like it, it has sped up my cooking because i dont have to chop onions (or anything really) by hand anymore. jsut cut it up into quarters, throw it in the bowl, and blitz it a few times. i dont know what the difference between this one and the dlc-2fr is but mainly i chose this one because of the handle on the bowl and the 3 cup bowl. im happy with my purchase, i was very excited to use it the first time!
oh btw, it is a bit loud for such a little thing, but its ok because it doesnt continuously chop/grind, rather you either pulse it or hold the button down till you have a consistency you want. also the manual recommends you buy an extra bowl just for grinding becuase coffee beans or nuts may scratch your bowl. this is a pretty good idea, though im not sure where to find the extra bowl.

I am not new to food processors, I have 5 of them, each with its own purpose. Several years ago, I purchased an 11 cup Cuisinart. I liked it somewhat but found it confusing and too safety oriented. Then I purchased the KitchenAid ( reconditioned). I love it, I love its simplicity, its ease to operate, its power. I use it every day, sometimes several times. I bake my own bread so the processor is right on my counter.I've had it for two years now. I have even convinced my best friend to purchase one and she loves it too. This is by far the best kitchen tool and the best processor. KitchenAid stands by its products too. Have no fear with this one.

After having surgery on both hands I found myself not being able to do the many things that I loved. But after purchasing the kitchenaid food processor I am now but into the race. I was a bit worried about buying a factory reconditioned item but knowing the kitchenaid brand name I knew that I had made a smart choice. My item came just as new as a new one...I just love it!!!!

This re-conditioned item broke after I used it once. (There is a reason it's so cheap.) Amazon has a great returns policy though, thank god.

OK, so what do you expect for $10? Well, a unit that does not MAKE YOU DEAF when you use it. The decibels this thing puts out are totally OFFENSIVE to my ears, I cannot believe that a product that sounds like this would be sold by any company. I called Cusinart and let them hear my unit - they then let me hear one they had over there - the both sounded the same, very loud and obnoxious. My ears are still ringing almost 5 minutes after doing the demo for them on the phone. So now unless I want to spend $7 to ship it back to Amazon to get my $10 back, I just take the loss. :-( I don't think I will consider Cusinart products again in the future.

this small appliance is incredibly handy for small food processor jobs. it is very powerful, easy to use, and fast. it does take a bit of practice to get used to protocols, including beginning with the processing of dry items, and adding liquid materials toward the end of processing. it is great for salad dressings, special dips and sauces, and the like.

it does not replace the full size processor for any sort of big job. it has only one speed, although its handy blade can turn both directions for a different effect.

a real bargain for very small households, and those who like to fancy up otherwise dull presentations.
