Cuisinart Custom Pro 11-Cup Stainless Steel Food Processor EV-11PC9
Cuisinart Custom Pro 11-Cup Stainless Steel Food Processor EV-11PC8
I ordered the EV-11PC8 with a bonus pack (pizza pan, pizza cutter and a second 11-cup work bowl). But, the next day I received a phone call from Southeast Clearance Consolidators, telling me that the product was mistakenly over-sold by one!
I was offered the newest model for the same price as the EV-11PC8, without the bonus pack. The price had risen on the new model $40, so I decided to take it, even though I really wanted the second work bowl. I'm very glad I did.
The man I spoke with was very apologetic and accommodating. He didn't want to lose my business. He even credited my account immediately $9.00 for half of the shipping charges, because he felt bad about the error. It shipped the same day and I received it five days later. I highly recommend this company, and will definitely buy from them again.
So, this review is actually for Cuisinart's newest model EV-11PC9, NOT the 11-PC8 as the product link shows.
I gave this appliance a 5-star rating for the excellent DEALER customer service I received, and for its beauty, ease of initial setup, ease of use, and ease of cleaning. I don't have a dishwasher so just I wipe each part with a soapy sponge and run under a spray nozzle to rinse.
An instructional DVD came with the food processor which demonstrates using it to make a variety of recipes included in the user manual. I found setting up and using the machine as easy as it looked in the DVD.
I've been using a Sunbeam Little Oskar for more than 20 years, and it's still going strong. But, it's very small bowl capacity means chopping large quantities of ingredients for fresh pesto and salsa had to be done in multiple batches, which created a huge mess in my kitchen, every time. So I'm happy to be retiring it for the new Cuisinart.
I've already made a large batch of pesto, a large batch of fresh salsa, and banana-nut-oatmeal pancakes, with a cherry topping. In each recipe, every ingredient I wanted fit in the work bowl, so there was no mess from removing the lid and bowl multiple times. The motor is very powerful and processes in seconds. The banana and cherries were still frozen when I chopped them, and the motor breezed right through them. I know I've barely used this product, but I'm thoroughly convinced that it's exactly what I was hoping for. I look forward to using it for years to come. I only wish that I'd gotten it sooner! I could have saved myself hours and hours of labor...
My first food processor
My Cuisinart Custom Pro 11-Cup Food Processor is wonderful! I didn't know a food processor could do so much. The instruction DVD helped me a lot since I am new to food processing. Every recipe I have tried has come out great.
Makes a mess
You MUST add ALL ingredients while it is on the stand. Otherwise they come pouring out the bottom. What a waste a money and a huge mess in my kitchen. Customer service was also useless.
