Cuisinart DLC8S Pro Custom

Pros: Powerful motor; heavy non-slip base; stainless steel blades; 5 year motor warranty

Cons: Poorly designed dual-purpose feed tube

The Bottom Line: While newer versions of the Cuisinart Pro Custom 11 hit the market, my sturdy model functions as well today as it did the day I brought it home.

Review: As a cook with decades of experience under her painfully cinched belt, my brand new Cuisinart® Pro Custom 11 appeared to challenge my hard earned title, “Kitchen Kween ~ Dark Mistress of Her Domain”. This bulky apparatus, with its seemingly simple pair...

Pros: great features, long-lasting

Cons: a bit expensive

The Bottom Line: The Cuisinart Professional Food Processor is the best product of its kind that I have seen. It has excellent features, ease of operation and durability.

Review: The Cuisinart Pro Custom food processor is for those people who are serious about quick and easy food preparation. Your "level of seriousness" is tested immediately when you look at the price tag. At $199, the unit is certainly not cheap but I think...

Pros: Easy to use, easy to clean, and it gets the job done QUICKLY!

Cons: Storage can be dicey.

The Bottom Line: Hate to chop, but love to cook? This is a WONDERFUL answer that will have you trying things you formerly thought were out of your culinary or patience limit.

Review: My husband got the Cuisinart Procustom 11 food processor for me two Christmases ago. It has not left its honored space on my counter since, in spite of a severe lack of counter space. Along with my mixer, I consider it an absolute necessity in my...

Pros: Perfect size, durable, powerful

Cons: None

The Bottom Line: This is something that can turn an amateur cook into a real chef very easily. It makes a wonderful gift.

Review: If you cook at all, you need a processor. Period. It makes the mundane tasks associated with food preparation easy and fun. Why is this important? Well, dinner is one of the few times of day that we can be with our loved ones, and arguing over whose...

Pros: Large 11 cup capacity, simple to use

Cons: Cost

Review: Okay, I must admit, after drewling over the Cuisinart many times I always walked away because of the price tag that came with it...but I finally did it, I bought it and kick myself for not buying it earlier!
In case you are wondering, these are...

Pros: versatile, durable, efficient

Cons: blades can be dangerous

Review: By all accounts, I'm a pretty horrendous cook, but I would be much worse without my Cuisinart Custom 11. Not only does slicing, dicing and julliening by hand take a long time, it's hard to do them well without practice, and quite frankly, I don't have...

Pros: It chops anything. And will never fail. It's the best there is.

Cons: They are expensive. And it tends to leak around the edges.

The Bottom Line: If you wanna process absolutely anything, with no limits, get one. If you don't need that kind of room or power, go with the cheaper/smaller models.

Review: After having murdered many, many a cheap little kitchen appliance, I recieved my Cuisinart from a fellow culinary student who had one and was out of money for drugs. Yeah, cooks are crazy. I have owned it for six years now and I can't even slow it down. ...

Pros: to many things to list here

Cons: the food tube is hard to clean, but if you soak it is not to bad.

Review: I bought myself this food processor for my birthday three years ago. I am one of those odd women who actually love getting kitchen gadgets as gifts. I was looking for an easy way to make salsa, pesto, and puree'd fruits in large quantities. I make large...

Pros: Powerful, easy to use, large capacity, capable of a wide variety of functions

Cons: large (you need counter space), somewhat expensive, may challenge your anti-yuppie snobbery

Review: It all started with the peanut butter.

I loathe store-brand peanut butter and won't feed my kids the goop made with sugar, salt, and enough preservatives to embalm a small dog. So I buy the expensive health food store brands, where the only...

Pros: Powerful tool that saves you time and effort

Cons: None

The Bottom Line: I can't live without my Cuisinart - it chops, it slices, it kneads, it mixes. It is incredible. The Cuisinart makes cooking easy and enjoyable.

Review: I grew up using a Cuisinart, therefore my opinion of its invaluable worth may be biased. However, this is my all-time favorite kitchen appliance for several reasons.

First, it takes the place of grating anything by hand. I choose to grate...
