I bought this Cuisinart to replace a 30 year old model that was frankly built like a tank but showing signs of age. At first glance, it scared me a little. Not nearly as heavy duty. The blades especially seemed kinda flimsy.
But I have to admit they still can do the job. I used it with veggies and even big chunks of meat and the chopper went through everything like hot butter. No strain at all, on low or high. Very powerful motor and much quieter than the one it replaced.
This is a good simple design with high and low an pulse buttons to handle pretty much every job. And the hopper is big enough to accommodate most recipes.
Yeah, it is kinda pricey but I don't mind that as long is the product is well built and does the job. This Cuisinart seems to qualify on all fronts.

I've never had a food processor before so I'm totally amazed at this thing. It's SO powerful and everything is chopped/diced/shredded in seconds rather than all the lengthy prepping. So far I've only used it for hashbrowns, salsa, bruschetta and hummus but I literally google "recipes for the food processor" just so I can use it more.

I forgot how nice it was to have a food processor. Before my kitchen remodel, we didn't have enough space, so we got rid of our last food processor and recently decided to buy another one.
This product is great. It slices/shreds veggies or cheese with ease. It chops with no problem. I even use it to make ground pork or chicken if I can't find it in the grocery store.
Easy to use and easy to clean. You can't go wrong with this one.

I was impressed with the weight of the unit and the power of the motor. This is a good size, not too small but not so large that it doesn't fit on a shelf. The accessory blades are useful for slicing and shredding. I think this will last a long time.

I love this appliance! It is super easy to use and keep clean and it's quiet. It doesn't take up a lot of space either.

I bought this for Veggie and Pastry Butter Cutting. Makes cutting butter into my flour a quick breeze with just a few pulses and it will slice my veggies with the other attachments. Highly recommend and I love this addition to my kitchen!

I broke my previous Cuisinart processor and I went without one for a little while…I had no idea how much I had really used it before! They are so handy. Besides the obvious help with chopping vegetables and nuts, I’ve made pie crusts, homemade peanut & almond butters, shredded tons of cheese, carrots and other vegetables, mixed batters and ground meats.
The problem is this model is not as heavy duty as my previous model and that’s my mistake.
This model is good for light duty processing. It can still do a lot of the basics and comes with the blades for shredding/slicing as well. It will struggle to do the more laboring tasks like nut butters.
All in all it is a great value for the machine and I would recommend for those basic tasks.

We bought a Cuisinart to replace a food processor whose pieces were breaking or fell out as you carried it to the sink. The two different speeds are really different. The pusher is the only piece that can easily come off of the top. There are two different thicknesses for the slicer too, not just one. So far there are no little pieces chipping off!!

Very pleased with the new food processor. Bowl latches into place smoothly, cuts and grates well, and clean up is easy. Nice upgrade from my 25+ year old Kitchen Aid.

Great processor, I have used it several times and it has not disappointed.
I have put off getting another food processor when mine broke several years ago. Now I don't know why I waited so long.

I bought this food processor to make a vegetable soup and I couldn’t believe how fast and easy it was to use. I couldn’t imagine hand grating all the ingredients. My fiancé loves it so much that he’s been helping in the kitchen more lol

This was a replacement for my first and only food processor. It had a recall on the blade. Cuisinart to care of it pronto. The new food processor is much lighter, which I like as i keep it up very high in my pantry. The power is excellent and the noise is what you'd expect, not more or less. We use it weekly and haven't had a single complaint.
