Need New Food Processor.
« on: December 24, 2019, 03:15:36 PM »

Some of you may not have been born when this was purchased.  It served my mother & father well, and has done well by us, but alas 35-40? years maybe asking to much.

So we are looking for new.  Recommendations are needed.  What are the models you all use, and are you happy with them?

I have the exact same processor that has been serving me well for more years than I can remember. If mine were to go belly up, I'd replace it with the same model.  :2cents:

A couple of months ago I purchase this one Cuisinart DFP-14BCNY 14-Cup Food Processor, Brushed Stainless Steel - Silver
by Cuisinart it was on sale for $99.99.  They go on sale frequently.

Saw reviews on a site that conducts testing saying that Cuisinart DFP-14BCNY is the best value.  I am surprised that there are only 2 slicing wheels. Same as what we have now.  I would have assumed we had progressed beyond that, but I guess that is what a mandolin is for.

I have whatever cuisinart they sell at Costco. It works well and game with many different accessory blades.

What do you have besides the slicer, and the grater (little hole one for KFC looking cole slaw) for lack of a better description?

I think I scored the same deal as ofelles. I’ve only used it a couple times, but seems nice. I’ve never had a food processor or a blender worth a xxxx, so still learning what to use it for.

We have a Kitchenaid with about 5-6 assorted blades and it's served us quite nicely for about 20+ years and of course it had to be red. (SWMBO) favorite color.

I have had my kitchen aid for years and it has worked well for me.  However, I doubt you could go wrong with either brand

I got many years of good service from a Cuisinart, but ended up replacing it with a Kitchenaid which I got at a kitchen outlet store. We went with the Kitchenaid due to its high ratings. I think both are good. By the way, my Cuisinart looks identical to yours.

I've had this one for a few years.  I think it's probably a newer vintage of yours.

https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=Cuisinart+food+processor+Videos+How-To&&view=detail&mid=6B25461BD093D87F01246B25461BD093D87F0124&&FORM=VRDGAR&ru=%2Fvideos%2Fsearch%3Fq%3DCuisinart%2Bfood%2Bprocessor%2BVideos%2BHow-To%26go%3DSearch%26qs%3Dn%26form%3DQBVR%26sp%3D-1%26pq%3Dcuisinart%2Bfood%2Bprocessor%2Bvideos%2Bhow-to%26sc%3D2-38%26sk%3D%26cvid%3D48AEA7521D474D18AB140F3F9A2C7B04

I don't dislike it but I'm not comfortable using it.  It's a little too violent for me.  Slicing vegetables is like an explosion.

EDIT:  Added video link.
I have the same model as you. It's a dynamo and should last for many years. I hope my kids fight over it when I'm gone! It's that durable.

I agree that it can seem aggressive. My wife uses it for making dough, so I chose the most powerful model I could find. I sort of got used to its torque after using it a while.

Bent,
I honestly don't know, I don't really use it. It was a present for my wife two Christmases ago and she loves it. I believe it came with the regular chopping blade that spins in the bottom. A grater blade like you said (cole slaw blade), a slicing blade, and then a plastic mixing blade. I will take a look when home. It also came with a little storage box for storage said accessories. I prefer to buy as many things as I can from Costco simply because of the no hassle and no questions asked return policy.

We had a cheap Walmart special we wore out, ended up with a Costco Cuisinart model..  Have been pleased with it, along with Costco's no hassle return policy if needed..   

So far..    :clap:
