I Love My Cuisinart Food Processor !!
- Cuisinart Food Processor with Slicing Discs
The Cuisinart Food Processor is my favorite small kitchen appliance and here’s why.
The speed of a food processor can make you a gourmet in a matter of seconds!
Unlike many other brands, Cuisinart comes with several slicing discs.
That’s really nice so, you don’t have to go out and buy anything else.
My Cuisinart Experience
Many years ago, I purchased my first Cuisinart food processor. It still performs just like new today. Since that first purchase, I went on to buy two more of the largest Cuisinarts, the DLC series, each are 20 cups, as we owned a B&B and prepared food for many houseguests daily.
The featured picture is the model that I own. Actually, I own two of this model. It is one of the most expensive, but definitely worth the price. But, Cuisinart has a model and price range for everyone.
And all three of my Cuisinarts are still in fine operating condition, tho I no longer prepare large amounts of food.
In my opinion, Cuisinart is the finest food processor. I can say this as I have had a 30 year love affair with this machine. I have been able to prepare foods that I never would have ever imagined that I could do, simply because of the help from the Cuisinart. It has made me an expert baker in pies and breads.
There are many cheaper versions on the market, but you do get what you pay for.
Cuisinart has the motor strength to let you do heavy or sticky dough without bogging down or “walking” all over your kitchen counter.
After you have read about the rest, then go buy the best!
In today’s economy, you want to spend your money carefully. I believe that Cuisinart will give you many years of great service. It’s like having a kitchen employee, but you don’t have to pay them!
Cuisinart is Safe and Easy to Use
The company that now owns Cuisinart has added many different models, in different price ranges and colors. In looking at some of the reviews of the cheaper models, some people seemed to have a few problems.
It’s always good to read reviews and keep an open mind. Read the reviews of other people who have purchased this 20 cup Cuisinart food processor.
I do not understand people complaining about having to line up the top and getting the bowl on straight or the machine won’t operate–they apparently do not appreciate the safety mechanisms of the Cuisinart.
If they were not constructed in such a way, someone would probably suffer personal injury, as the machine is very powerful and the blades are very sharp. Someone would probably try to put their hand into the feed tube for whatever reasons.
Can’t be done with the machine running. And that is a good thing!
I have used Customer Service a couple of times several years ago, and found them always courteous and helpful. That’s all I can say about that.
I just recently purchased a new steel knife blade for my Cuisinart DLC, it’s the 20 cup, I bought it through Amazon and got it at a wonderful price.
They Are Still Going Strong!!
My Cuisinarts were all used for nearly 20 years in our B&B, which meant that even tho they were not commercial appliances, I used them in that capacity and they performed like true work horses!
They were handled by many inexperienced employees and run thru the commercial dishwasher. Cheaper quality brands would have been in the trash years ago.
I still use my Cuisinart daily, as I bake 4 or 5 loaves of bread a week, make pesto, chop onions, nuts and slice vegetables.
I am no longer in the B&B, but my Cuisinart is always on the counter ready to help with whatever my menu is.
Some of them are very expensive if you purchase them from upscale kitchen stores, but you can find good prices here.
I have always liked the fact that the Cuisinart does not waste food by mangling it when you are slicing. The slicing discs are so sharp and precise that the slicing cuts are cut beautifully.
Some of the lesser quality brands waste food, as they do not cut precisely when using their slicing discs. You can make beautiful appetizer trays with lovely cut vegetables. Or AuGratin potatoes are cut perfectly. Think onion rings! Slicing onions in a Cuisinart elininates tears!
As I said, there is no end to the many recipes you can enjoy cooking.
The Cuisinart will help to speed you along and get you out of the kitchen with less clean up.
There are several models and price ranges to choose from.
Read the reviews and choose the model that suits your needs. Keeping in mind that your interest and cooking skills may grow and you want a food processor that can go the distance. The last thing you want is to buy one that will be obsolete in a couple of years.
Buy a Cuisinart and Eat, Love and Cook!!
