Cons: safety-locks take some time to figure out, expensive, plastic base looks cheesy

I had an Oster 10-Cup Food Processor for about a year and a half before it blew itself up in a blaze of glory. I don't bake and I only used the thing once or twice a week tops to make pesto, hummus, or to shred soft things like kale or yellow squash. ...

Pros: easy release and connect features, extra-large feed tube, auto-on when feed tube is engaged
Cons: price, few extras in the package

I thought I didn't need a food processor. The Cuisinart Prep Plus DLC-2011 has shown me I can make good use of one as a time-saver. At the very least it has shown me that it's a worthwhile extravagance when the price is right. Food Proces ...

Pros: powerful motor, large bowl, good brand
Cons: set up and cleaning time

Cons: expensive, but well worth it

Anyone who has read my other epinions on Cuisinart cookware and appliances knows that I am already a huge fan of theirs. Well this is no exception. I had the privilage of winning this in a contest a few weeks ago. I had been wanting one really bad, but...

Pros: Well made. Quiet. Fast. Easy to clean.
Cons: Expensive. Might be hard to store.

I really enjoy cooking. And I enjoy gadgets. That said, I never would have bought the DLC-2011 for myself. It was a gift from my husband. Oh, I would have visited it in the store and online, and would have WANTED one, but I wouldn't have shelled out ...

Pros: Quiet, powerful, sharp blades, stylish
Cons: Could use more slicing blades

After a terrible experience with a Euro-Pro Quad-blade food processor (see another review), I decided it was time to stop being frugal and look for the best quality machine I could afford. After all, with three children in the house, my wife uses this ...

Cons: Heavy, takes quite a bit of space. High $$ accessories needed for simple tasks.

Pros: Price, Clean Up, Quality, Touchpad, quiet
Cons: Confusing safety feature, price of accessories

Cuisinart DLC-2011N Premier Series 11-Cup Food Processor A few years ago, someone gave me my first food processor. It was utilitarian, but not a joy to use. When it broke, I decided I could live without one. However, the time came again when I ...

Pros: Easy to use and so fast the fun's over before it begins.
Cons: Durability is a problem and it bogs down on a double recipe of bread dough.

My wife picked up a Cuisinart Prep 11 Plus Food Processor just in time for us to make our favorite green salsa to go with the ham she was making for Christmas dinner. The Cuisinart Little Pro Plus we had used forever was undersized and suffering from a...

Cons: Beautiful round base is hard to grip for lifting.

I had wanted a food processor for YEARS, but I was always fearful of buying an expensive kitchen item that I would use furiously a few times then chunk in the back of a closet after a hummus/slaw/shredded cheese burnout. I mean, really, how often would I ...

Pros: Versatile, large capacity and easy to clean
Cons: Expensive, but worth it

I have had mine for a year now and still continue to use it on a weekly basis. It is extremely versatile, from the slicing attachment that will give you paper-thin slices of tomatoes, to the dough attachment that makes perfect homemade pizza dough. The...

Pros: High capacity, heavy-duty motor
Cons: Annoying safety feature, expensive replacement parts

For the most part, I like this machine. It was the one I wanted and it does what I need it to do and I like that (I've never made dough in it, so cannot comment on that feature, which seems to be where people have issues with it). That said, there is ...

Pros: Hard working, versatile
Cons: Very early failure in pusher assembly, and poor customer service

Like another reviewer, I had a Cuisinart for over 20 years and I loved it. It was dependable and when one part developed a crack, the company replaced it at no charge, even though it was more than 10 years old at the time. I was impressed! So when it...

Pros: Powerfully smooth operation, quiet and quick
Cons: Heavy and expensive

My food processor of twenty years finally gave up this past Christmas. Suddenly I was in the market for a new one - and quickly! Funny how certain luxuries become necessities over time.

It was my good fortune to find that a new store was...
