Food Processor Reviews

this is a piece of plastic that is cut to fit the Kitchenaid food processor discs. So, it holds them perfectly, on the wall or in the cabinet.

The KitchenAid disc storage holder is a must have for any KitchenAid Food Processor owner! I have found that the KitchenAid storage holder is not only a cleaver means of storing the various discs but it is extremely sturdy as well. I have no trouble picking out which disc is which do to the holder being made of clear plastic. I only wish I had been the person to invent this helpful gadget. I think you will find this item to be a great addition to any kitchen!

I like to cook and I have tried many kinds of choppers. I lose their cords. The food gets stuck or doesn't even chop finely. I can take this in my motor home and have fresh salsa plus chop my onions, bell peppers and many other vegetables to my liking. The blades are very sharp and do an excellent job with little effort. It's great!

If you mainly want to chop onions, tomatoes and herbs, this is a very useful and effective tool. As to salsa, it whips it up in a very few minutes. When your tomato crop comes in this summer, you will love it. (Here's an evil little party secret; even canned tomatoes, hot sauce, onion, and your homegrown cilantro taste better than some bottled salsas and cost a LOT less. It's a great way to use up those mini packets of hotsauce from the fast food taco restaurant)

It's also easy to clean this small bowl. Many people buy mini- processors to avoid cleaning the big, cumbersome bowl of a full-sized food processor. As long as you aren't chopping hard, rubbery stuff like nuts and parmesan cheese, this is an inexpensive, good alternative. And since it is hand-powered, you can make salsa even during a power outtage.

Actually I'm talking about my dad here, he recently had several teeth removed, and didn't want to face the dentist for a while. He has some upper dentures, but he doesn't feel comfortable using them. For Christmas, I told him I was gonna get him one of these choppers. Now, I looked at those things they advertise of TV all the time, they sell for sixty bucks or more, but I didn't see that they were worth the money. There are a lot of good small choppers out there, they perform pretty well until the blades break off the plastic rotors. You can hardly expect a titanium rotor for under fifteen dollars.

I figured at the price of this "Chopster" thing, if it breaks anytime soon, I can just buy a few more. When my dad opened it up for Christmas, he was surprised at how sturdy the thing was. Simple too, you put on the chopping cup, then fill it with what you want chopped up. The last step is to put on the lid, and push the big button. It's a plug-in device not a battery powered one, so it has good power. My dad likes, and uses it all the time. I just got him a Subway sub the other day, and my dad was able to chop his up the way he wanted, and eat it with a spoon.

Just by looking at the picture, I think you can see that it's easy to clean. The chopping cup comes off easily, and it can be rinsed off in the sink, or even put in the dishwasher if you so desire. I'd consider taking it out before the drying cycle, even though it says its dishwasher safe, heating elements may warp it. I've used the Chopster myself a few times, and it works great. If you put in mixed items, like my dads sub sandwich, the lighter stuff like the bread, sometimes just stays on top. If you break it down a little, it chops up fine. While I think this is a pretty good machine, I wouldn't recommend it for heavy use like chopping frozen foods, or cracking ice. Like I mentioned earlier, these plastic choppers are good until they break. The Chopster is for convenience, its not meant to replace a blender or food processor.

The size of this chopper is great. I didn't have the money for a big food processor and I really don't need a big one, so this one was idea. Other Toastmaster products tend to be made cheaply, but this is awesome. I even recommended it to my boss who bought one for the assisted living home we work at to chop up food for the residents who have trouble chewing. This item is great.

Most people expect a blender to blend with a minimum of fuss and a maximum of efficiency. The BOSCH MMB 2000 blender does this, even if the price seems a tad high. One of the problems in choosing a blender is that its function is well, just performing one task. There are much cheaper models that do that, so how can Bosch justify the elevated price tag? First, the solidity of the construction is a function of its utility. Most cheap blenders are plastic things that look, sound, and work on the cheap. Why pay 30 to 40 dollars for a blender that does not do the job as thoroughly as a powerhouse like this one? Further, the BOSCH 2000 is an imposing and heavy piece of equipment that promises years of faithful service. I have crunched ice cubes in quick time and have made puree with no trouble. The cleanup time is minimal and easy. Finally, the customer service is fast and ready to make any adjustments (I had a minor problem that it corrected in only a few days). For those who like fruity smoothies, batter mixes, and wish to avoid extensive cleanups, the BOSCH MMB2000 at $139 is the right tool at the right price.

Sometimes a kitchen appliance has to do double-duty in a single day. Often, you don't want to dirty another dish just so you can empty your blender for a new recipe. If you have a SPARE blender pitcher, you won't have to. Think about those big family dinners where you'd love to store and chill gazpacho or salsa till you pour it easily into serving dishes. Or times when keeping smoothies in the fridge till guests arrived (late, of course!) seemed to save the day. Use one for pancake batter and one for scrambling eggs for breakfast. It's so quick!! I've had the bosch blender for over a year and find it hard to believe this pitcher/blending unit would break (it washes sooooo nicely) so you probably won't need it for replacement purposes. However, having 2 on hand is a life-saver, a time-saver and a HUGE aggravation saver and relieves me from having to rush handwash my original pitcher. You will love having a spare to pop in the fridge!! BUY ONE NOW!!

This slicer shedder will hold two pounds of shredded cheese. It is fast and very easy to clean. One blade grates both medium and course or slices thin and thick just flip them over so you only have to store half as many blades.

This disk blade will make the string shape potatoes and fruits that we all love. The potatoes and fruit will come out firm straight. Not mash or wiggling like a French yellow bowl of ... The potatoes goes right through the disk blade and never backup or bend.

This is a great product! I was given a DCL-7 Series Cuisinart food processer and it was missing the slicing blades. These fit and the savings was incredible. They slice and shred perfectly. I was impressed. I can't wait to get the specialty blades.

My mom has had her classic Cuisinart over 20 years... I decided on this model in hopes of having the same luck. So far so good. I really enjoy the product. It's as powerful as I need and does an all around great job. I got mine at Williams & Sonoma and it came with an extra LExan bowl. Major bonus.

just received this processor a few days ago from amazon. bought it for myself because i wanted a food processor but didnt need a big bulky one (i live alone). so far i reallly like it, it has sped up my cooking because i dont have to chop onions (or anything really) by hand anymore. jsut cut it up into quarters, throw it in the bowl, and blitz it a few times. i dont know what the difference between this one and the dlc-2fr is but mainly i chose this one because of the handle on the bowl and the 3 cup bowl. im happy with my purchase, i was very excited to use it the first time!
oh btw, it is a bit loud for such a little thing, but its ok because it doesnt continuously chop/grind, rather you either pulse it or hold the button down till you have a consistency you want. also the manual recommends you buy an extra bowl just for grinding becuase coffee beans or nuts may scratch your bowl. this is a pretty good idea, though im not sure where to find the extra bowl.
