 every kitchen needs one October 6, 2008

So far this has proven to be a wonderful addition to my kitchen. I have been having lots of fun with it, and hope to try some new recipes in the future.
Quiet Work Horse October 6, 2008

This processor makes quick work of any task, with very little noise. Three different sized bowls and assorted attachments offer lots of versatility but may require a few uses before getting used to how each attachment and bowl work together. Cleaning the base is a breeze, with it's smooth surface and only three buttons. This is a sturdy (read "heavy") quality product, perfect for the serious cook who can utilize it for all the tasks it was designed to do.
Excellent processor October 1, 2008

We bought this processor about a month ago and have used it a lot. It's wonderful. It is very easy to use.... and having three bowls is just so convenient. We didn't really know why we would need three bowls but when using, it's really easy to flip one bowl out and start using another bowl. It makes cooking easier & saves time! We would highly recommend this processor.
 Fairly good September 29, 2008

The machine is fine, it is powerful and heavy and has a lot of attachments and they look to be of decent quality.
One big omission is variable speed on the drive. There is just off, on and pulse which are all at the same speed. This is mostly pretty good but for chopping onions, for example you have to use very short bursts of the pulse or you end up with a mushy paste.
The only time that this is really a problem is with juice extraction, which becomes something of a violent business and if you leave the cover open to press your oranges by hand, expect to get some specks of juice in your face.
Having said that the machine has otherwise been very good, and if you don't want to do juice extraction it is great. For me, however, the lack of variable speed is such a big omission that I wish I had paid more for a machine that has it.
Excellent Food Processor Line ... from a Cuisinart Switcher September 22, 2008

We have owned 2 Cuisinarts, and my sister worked for Cuisinart. My wife and I know how to use food processors and we have used Cuisinarts literally for decades. When it came time to replace our latest Cuisinart (15 years old), we naturally went looking for another. What we found was cheapened quality and a soured reputation due to lousy customer service. Meanwhile, KitchenAid has risen as a competitor to the point where some of their models consistently rank above the equivalent Cuisinarts in professional reviews. Even so, we looked at the KitchenAids with some skepticism, even though we own and are very happy with two of their mixers.
Comparing the KitchenAids against the Cuisinarts side-by-side, we found the KitchenAids were easier to assemble and disassemble, FAR easier to lock on bowls and lids, and have a much better juicer. The Cuisinart juicer, in fact, is what did our last machine in. I believe its bearings simply weren't designed for the thrust pressure of juicing. The KitchenAid juicer simply drops into the main bowl and has a nice press cover, i.e., you don't have to push directly down on the fruit. The Cuisinart juicer has multiple parts and is fussy to assemble and disassemble.
The KitchenAid (we bought a 760) comes with a selection of slicing blades, a chopping blade, dough blade, a drop-in smaller inner bowl with its own blades for small jobs, and a case that holds all the accessories. Nothing more to buy.
The KitchenAid uses an induction motor, noticably quieter than the Cuisinart, and the unit is heavier. Cuisinart claim a higher wattage rating, but given that the KitchenAid base is heavier (both have plastic covers), I'm suspicious of the worth of Cuisinart's numbers. Motor longevity is directly rated to the weight of windings and motor cores. Reports (some here on Amazon) of Cuisinarts smoking under heavy use only tend to confirm the suspicion.
After comparing the two brands, we wound up selecting the KitchenAid, selecting the wide mouth version of the 12 cup processor over the narrow. While you have to use the pusher on the wide mouth model, and the pusher doesn't engage the lock mechanism until part-way down, the pusher still has a conventional, open drop tube. I.e., you don't lose anything with the wide-mouth version in terms of being able to drop ingredients in, and are still able to take advantage of the wide mouth when you need it.
Performance is superb.
Take a look at KitchenAid's food processor line. These are serious machines for serious cooks. KitchenAid, by the way, enjoys a reputation for superb service responsiveness.
