I've been a KitchenAid fan for years and finally purchased this food processor that I've been admiring forever. It is super efficient and makes quick work of tasks that would take forever by hand. Target had the best price of all the gazillion sites I searched [...].
I have used the processor several times now and am pretty happy with it on the whole. I have made soup with it a couple of times and thats when I found an issue. Firstly it says 12 cups, I put in around 8 cups of liquid and found that it leaked,only a small amount but more than I was expecting, in the middle where the spindle sits. If the liquid goes over the fill mark it goes all over the base via the spindle. When I put in the liquid it was no where near the fill mark but once it had began sp
inning it rose almost to the top of the bowl and then leaked through the center. It made a mess and although the consistency of the soup was perfect I only wanted to wash out the bowl and the blade, not have to clean the whole base unit and counter top. The speeds are perfect and very easy to control, its sits steadlily and wont move around which was something I experienced in my last processor. All in all I like it, it looks good, is easy to use but be warned that it may leak.
I ordered this kitchen aid 12 cup processor for my daughter in California. I had it sent directly to her and the shipping was free. She was thrilled with it and has used it alot in the past month. I looked at smaller ones but this one also came with a four cup attachment which is perfect for salsas and humus.
I have only used it a couple of times but it has worked very well slicing carrots. I am looking forward to using all the extra attachments I bought for it.
I just got this as a wedding gift and it never ceases to amaze me. The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars is b/c it is a pain to clean, but I think that is how ALL food processors are. I read a lot of reviews, all over the Internet, and this one got fantastic reviews and I definitely recommend it. The only thing I've done it is so far is onions, and while I didn't cry from cutting the onions, I almost let out tears of joy at how easy it was.
I used to have a tiny food chopper, and this was actually my first nice food processor. It can be used for both large amount and smaller amount since it comes with a smaller cup. Blades come in various sizes, easy to clean, very stable, and the color is just lovely it brights up my kitchen.
