Q: Has anyone been able to safely remove the black ring lid? Is there a specific way to do it? It feels like I'm about to snap the plastic.

    Does Not Work

    Used this once and thereafter it did not work. Should have kept the receipt and the box to return it. Now I am stuck.

    Stick with KitchenAide!

    This small food processor replaced a well known brand. As a baker, many recipes call for cutting in butter. Arthritis makes this maneuver difficult so I started using my food processor. I had a small 2 Cup KitchenAide but I wore it out. Foolishly, I purchased a different, well known brand. Well, that was a horrible mistake! I went back to KitchenAide and I couldn’t be happier - processes foods perfectly- especially cutting in butter and flour ! So glad a switched back to KitchenAide!

    Really the best small food processor I've ever found. Chops veggies in a heartbeat; quiet, very easy to store and clean. Gorgeous in the pistachio color.

    Good things come in small packages

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had my mini chopper for just over a month. Such an upgrade on my last one. So handy and easy to use. Very efficient and quick and quiet. Tucks away easily in my cupboard. Easy to wash. A pleasure to use. I find the Kitchen Aid products to be well designed and enjoyable to use. Great value for money

    Such an amazing product

    Amazing product! Really good and super powerful. Only thing is that you have to be careful to not overload the cup, or food will get under the blade and into the rotor.

    Disillusioned

    I am very dissapointed in this purchase. I was under the impression that this food processor would be long lasting. This is the worst kitchen aid item i have ever purchased. It only last one year and two months with very infrequent use. The motor gave out and smoked up the entire house, now i am left with a junky item that has no warrenty. I would purchase from another brand as it is very short lived.

    So far so good

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We’ve used it a couple of times so far after buying it to replace our Magic Bullet, and it’s been great. The only downside is that you need to keep an eye on the fill level, as overfilling it even slightly can make things messy. On the plus side, it’s very easy to clean thanks to the removable blade. Overall, we’re happy with the purchase and would recommend it.

    Disappointed

    At this price and brand name, I expected better. The pieces feel flimsy, don’t fit smoothly together; I didn’t even wash it to observe how it chops. Back in the box, disappointed.

    Great Little Food Processor

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a work horse. Chops & purée’s perfectly. Doesn’t take up much space on my counter. Easy to use. I don’t have to take out my big food processor. Holds 3 1/2 cups. Love the KitchenAid brand.
