Food Processor, 14-Cup Vegetable Food Chopper for Mincing, Dicing, Shredding, Puree & Kneading Dough, 720-Watt Motor, Stainless Steel, DFP-14BCNY

I bought used in new condition. Everything looked absolutely new. I think the retail box was a little dinged, but everything inside was perfect. I used it for the first time to slice cabbage and shred carrots for slaw. Super fast and powerful and great results with very little wasted food. I wasn't sure I needed the 14c capacity, but for high volume food like cabbage, it saved a lot of effort. I did two small cabbages before I had to empty the bowl. This is a week's worth of salad starter for just me. You don't need to be feeding an army to justify the large capacity. For veggies, I could clean with just a rinse. I expect it'll be a little more effort to clean up from making sauces, but still probably easier than my old processor.

Reviews are so sketchy these days so it's no wonder trying to find a quality product is anxiety inducing. People do not take the time to look something over before trying to assemble it. The user manual and instruction booklet are in the description in PDF format and are printable. I might add they are also quite detailed. This was a common complaint in the reviews, "no instructions". It's been a number of years since there were user manuals included with a product. We had a Cuisinart food processor in 2019 but was enticed away by the bells and whistles of the Ninja all in one and gave it away in favor of the Ninja. Big mistake, less than 8 months later our food processor bowl fell apart, after they sent us 4 replacement bowls that didn't fit they replaced the entire system with the same one they said no longer existed, it was a 2 1/2 month nightmare. Five years later the replacement Ninja was no longer usable the blender jug and food processor bowl was cracked and leaked. We take care of our things and hand washed the bowl and all parts so the Ninja was not something we were about to re-purchase. We just got this food processor this morning, it is an upgrade from the one we bought in 2019. The bowl is large and will help us in our large batch cooking. Simple and straightforward, quiet and efficient. Contrary to the negative reviews about the bowl being difficult to seat and the lid being hard to put on and lock in place we found that it was an extreme exaggeration. If you look at the base of the machine and line the bowl up with the divots in the bowl you will not have an issue putting it on. The blade goes in after the bowl is seated, not in conjunction with it. The same with the lid, there is a specific way to line it up, and it will easily lock into place and unlock just as easily for that matter if you take the time to look it over. There is no need to wrestle with it. My wife made falafel in it this morning and it worked like a champ! Clean up was very easy as well. We cook 90% of our meals from scratch so we actually use our appliances daily. With our medium sized family of 5 we are always chopping, prepping and spend a great deal of time in the kitchen. I feel the quality and power is here and will keep up with our family's needs. I also feel that this machine will last for years if it is well maintained. Take the time to look at things before you try to assemble them and most definitely before leaving a bad review. When others are looking at making a large purchase like this, hasty reviews are not helpful. With inflation and horrible products on the market that are junk it's hard enough to make an informed decision without having to sort through negative things that are most often user error not the product itself.

Made short work of slicing onions for food prep. Blades are very sharp so the storage box for the blades should be a part of the package. I don’t feel like purchasing it and a dough hook separately as neither were included and that drives the pricing point up closer to fancier brands like breville offer storage, especially as I purchases a fine slicing disc separately as well. The motor is heavy, mind you, but it works like a dream.

This food processor is a workhorse! I used it for a lot of baking all types of dough! It’s great for bread as well. It also did a great job for all my canning needs. And it still looks like the day I bought it six years ago. I’m passing down to the next generation.

I bought this processor to replace a 40+ year old Cuisinart classic that finally gave up the ghost. I loved that machine! Simple to operate, just one button (on, off, pulse), easy to clean, powerful enough to easily make dough. I wanted another one just like the other one, and this is as close as I could get. This one works fine, but I had so much trouble fitting the lid on the bowl every. single. time. I used it that I finally donated it today. For some reason, Cuisinart changed the lid design on a number of their processors so that the bowl handle is still in front but the lid secures on the opposite side - away from the user, so you can't see what you're doing. Sometimes it clicks into place, sometimes it doesn't. And of course, if it doesn't, it doesn't work. Yesterday what should have been a 10-minute job took half an hour because I couldn't get the lid to click. Part of what I was doing was making bread crumbs, and I really needed a processor. I finally switched to a mini, which took much longer and didn't crumble as finely, but it worked. That's when I put this one aside to donate. So if you have eyes in your hands this will be an excellent purchase for you. For me, I just ordered an 8-cup Elemental, which has a smaller motor but has the bowl and lid working together on the same side and is very sleek-looking. I don't cook as much as I used to, so I'm hoping the Elemental will be the last one I ever need. Update: the Elemental arrived and had to be returned because of a materials defect. But on ordering again, I noticed that this model now has a lid that secures on the same side as the handle, so that's what I ordered. And hallelujah, that's what arrived. It's the good ol' Cuisinart simple beast, perfect for my needs. Apparently there are still some models that lock the lid on the back. I guess the moral of the story is, look very VERY carefully at the photos and make sure what you're ordering is the version you want.

Me gusto mucho el procesador, la base es bastante pesada para mover facilmente, supongo que es para estabilidad del aparato, funciona bien, aunque hay que usarla no tan llena, porque luego quedan algunos trozos grande, yo los aparto y los proceso despues aparte para evitar sobreprocesar todo lo demás. Los rayadores aun no los he usado porque tengo otro procesador para eso, aunque me hubiera gustado que tuviera una pieza para almacenar los discos y toda esa parte de los rayadores cuando no se usan, sin embargo son piezas que se venden por separado y a un precio no tan economico. En si el aparato tiene buena pinta, fácil de usar y lavar, y hasta el momento no he tenido problemas, he picado carne, zanahorias, betabel (que son duros), entre otras cosas y todo ha funcionado bien.

It’s simple to use and great machine Had one years ago and bowl deteriorated and I never thought at time to get a bowl

I owned two food processors (a different brand) prior to this one. Neither one lasted more than 4 months. This Cuisinart product is sturdy and reliable. I use it almost daily to make sauces, cream cheese and other cheeses, and baked goods (even those with thick dough). I highly recommend this product to anyone, especially if you are Vegan like myself.

Too small for what I need it to do. I will order a larger one that can accommodate more ingredients.

Me encanta su color, su forma de trabajar , los discos rallan perfecto . Es sencillo de usar, tiene gran capacidad. Lo uso para hacer salsas, picar verdura, hacer pasta. Es un aparato y una marca que desquita lo que vale.
