Quality mini food processor speeds prep and easy to clean
We always cook for family during the holiday and wanted an easier way prepping everything from garlic (mince) to onions (dice) to parsley and more (Italian meatballs for the win). Many food processors struggle to get consistent chop - but this one works GREAT - very good consistencies and at all sizes. Saved us a lot of time and even small cuts we get every year. (Don’t judge). It is easy to assemble and comes ultra sharp, It’s now living out on our counter and a regular part of our prep.

Mini-Prep Food Processor a Great Product!
Really great for small jobs like chopped veggies, salsa, dressings, marinades and dips- easy to use, fast, powerful and easy to clean. Very safe if careful with extra sharp blade when washing. Highly recommend! Great pricing on Black Friday too.

Very easy to use
I have the larger Cuisinart food processor and really like it, but it is much heavier and too large for chopping a small amount of walnuts. I bought this one primarily just for that purpose. It is very easy to move around, very easy to assemble, operate and take apart to wash. It does chop the nuts very well-the size of chopped nuts is determined by how you operate the 2 control buttons. In the past I have had excellent customer service from Cuisinart in case there is a problem while product under warranty. The price of brushed chrome color model I purchased from Amazon was very reasonable.

Sturdy little machine with a couple of cons...
This is a good little food processor. It took me a while to pick one, especially because there are so many out there. Here are my lists of pros and cons after having this little guy for months: PROS: It is light-weight and easy to store as it pretty small, it is easy to clean, grinds up stuff really fast (it is a powerful little machine), and it is perfect size for a bit of hummus, or grinding up beans or nuts for a recipe. CONS: It is SO loud - every time I use it I feel like I need to wear earplugs. This is my first ever food-processor, so noise may be typical. I was just surprised by how piercingly sharp the grinding sound was. Also, It is almost impossible to emulsify anything unless the liquid I'm pouring in is the consistency of water as that is all that will go through the tiny holes in the top. So if there is any thickness at all to the liquid using to emulsify, I either have to revert back to a blender or pour in a bit and blend and pour more then blend again. I wish the little area of the top with the holes was removable to do this. I make little batches of hummus and dressings, and it would be nice to have the ability to pour in consistently and slowly. Even with these cons, I will use and keep this little machine until it no longer works. It was worth the money, and as a "food-processor newbie" it was way easier to use than my blender.

Great little food processor!
I've had a large, heavy 14-cup Cuisinart food processor for years, which I love and have used for everything from making bread dough to shredding cheese, pureeing soups or other blender-type tasks, dicing vegetables, and even making nut butters, oat flour, and more. But it's so large and heavy and was a pain to get out for small things, plus the large work bowl wasn't well suited for some of these smaller tasks, either. So, I finally decided to get one of these. It's great! It's lightweight, easy to get out or put away, and is very convenient for small tasks. In my case, I often use it to make just a cup of oat flour or to "blend" blueberries and bananas into plain yogurt as an easy breakfast. It's so convenient I've used it almost every day for the last month (since I got it), unlike my large model that I only got out if I really thought the effort was worth it. It's also fairly easy to clean. The manual says all removable parts ares dishwasher safe, but I've mostly been hand washing to make sure it's ready for the next day (but the dishwasher has also worked). There are some disadvantages, one obvious: it's quite small, so it's not suitable for larger jobs (or heavier--the motor says 250 W; my large one is 720 W). Even with a 4-cup bowl, I can't imagine making much more than 1 cup of oat flour or similar dry ingredients before it gets to be too much. But that's perfect for me -- it's actually better than my large one for this small of an amount. It's also quite loud. I got ear plugs to wear while using it, which I know sounds excessive but really seems like a good idea with this unit. Other disadvantages include a non-waterproof lid (or really anything-proof): there are two small holes in the top, apparently by design. This mostly isn't a problem unless it's probably too full -- again, you won't really get a full 4 cups -- and the contents are watery; in actual use, this has rarely come up for me. Also, replacement parts practically cost more than the unit itself, which I discovered after I considered buying another bowl, lid, and blade (to worry about washing less) since I'm using mine almost every day. Some may also not like that the unit is gray but is actually plastic instead of stainless steel, though I don't personally mind. All things considered, this is a great unit as long as you're aware of the capacity and power--but it works well for its size! If you're like me and want an alternative to your larger food processor, I'd consider this one (but if you're looking for mostly larger jobs, probably start with one of those instead).

Most important tool in my kitchen!
Best helper in my kitchen. I use it daily. Can’t imagine cooking without it. Saves me time and effort. Great quality appliance. Motor, cup, blade and lid last long time. Only had to replace motor once in 25 years.

worth the money, better than described on website
This is the best little chopper for food like celery and onions, etc. It locks well, blade is sharp, and is easy to use and DW safe. I had same brand that was 10 years old and had to replace it Newer and better

This is a must have tool in our kitchen , the first one lasted 15 years or more and is still going strong , the blade housing has developed a crack and that makes it no longer food safe the replacement blade was almost as much as the new one so we just replaced the entire machine ! MUST HAVE MACHINE EXCELLENT VALUE !

Es un buen procesador prácticamente para raciones para 2 personas, muy fácil de usar, uno presiona los botones el tiempo necesario para dejar el picado o batido de los alimentos según nuestras necesidades. Muy satisfecho

NOT FOR THE EU COMES WITH A US PLUG!!! I can smell the engine when I run it even when using an adaptor. I think the wattage is too high for the EU. Also can’t put the barrel in the dishwasher or food gets stuck in side the handle and it has a special type of screw to unscrew it so I can’t get it clean. Don’t buy.
