With its powerful 450-watt motor, this convenient food processor helps to reduce prep time in the kitchen. The unit provides an 8-cup work bowl and a stainless-steel chopping blade for coarsely or finely chopping, mincing, mixing, or pureeing food. It also comes with a reversible stainless-steel slicing/shredding disk and a food chute with a pusher for slicing cabbage to make coleslaw or for shredding cheese to sprinkle over a homemade pizza. Chop, slice, or shred directly into the work bowl or use the continuous-flow side chute to slice up large quantities of food like potatoes or carrots into a separate container. Its user-friendly control dial offers low and high speed settings, plus "pulse" to deliver an extra burst of power when needed. For safety, the appliance provides an interlock system, which prevents the food processor from operating unless the work bowl and cover are properly locked into place. Other highlights include a continuous flow stopper to direct food into the work bowl, a storage lid, cord wrap, and dishwasher-safe parts for quick cleanup. The food processor measures approximately 10-1/5 by 10-1/5 by 15-1/5 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.
Pretty nice machine This machine works great. I love it. I bought it to make a recipe for pasteles (Puerto Rican tamales). I had to replace the blade with one that I bought just to make the pasteles. This machine worked great. I was able to make the dough for pasteles in 20 minutes. This usually takes 4 to 5 hours to make by hand. This machine is awesome! Don't expect much! Lasted just a few months. I guess it couldn't handle cooked pumpkin. Not worth the money I paid. Piece o' Crap I've had this for just 24 hours and it's already broken to where it can't be used. I followed the instructions to the T. I even made a practice run before using it w/food. The first thing I made with it was hummus. Threw the garbanzos in, went to lock the lid and it wouldn't lock. Then, SNAAAP! In locking the lid, a piece by the chute blocker cracked, but the lid still stayed in place so I went to finish my hummus. I gently unlock the lid, inspected it and CRACK! A whole chunk of plastic falls right off the lid! I was hoping I can just hold the lid in place to finish my hummus but it wouldn't work. And since there's a safety feature that won't allow the food processor to run at all until everything is securely locked in place, with the broken lid not secure, the whole thing is worthless, and my hummus sits unfinished. Save yourself the hassle, drop the few extra bucks and get something more durable.
