The Cuisinart Mini-Prep food processor stands 8 inches tall and just over 4 inches wide, but don't let the size fool you. The base houses a motor so powerful that you need to stabilize it with one hand when using the high setting to whip up a strawberry-banana smoothie for one in less than a minute. The clear plastic prep bowl locks into place with a simple twist, while the blades can be set sharp side up for chopping onions or grating Parmesan cheese, or turned blunt side up for making walnut pesto or whipping up chocolate frosting. The set includes a spatula and a cleaning brush to remove coffee grounds.
For best results, cut ingredients into small, even pieces--about 1/2-inch square or so works well. In general, use the sharp-edge approach for low speed and the blunt side of the blades for high speed. If you need to run the motor for longer than one minute, pause and begin again. The bowl, cover, and blade assembly can all be run through the dishwasher, but watch your fingers when dissembling the machine, as the blades are extremely sharp. --Irene Svete

This Cuisinart is substantial - other food processors cheat and use suction cup feet to grip the counter but this thing just sits on the counter and stays put. It feels great to use in that sense. The controls are simple and streamlined, and work very well. There is apparently a technique to properly using this device I am learning it. The blades are heavy/substantial as well, and they are sharp...they work very well. I sliced through a raw sweet potato like nothing and the slices were thin, consistent, and neat and there wasn't residual potato jammed in up top like I would have expected from cheaper machines. I use it mostly with the chopper blade to make bean dips and hummus so far, but I'm also looking forward to chopping veggies with it (this may have a learning curve). I haven't used the grater wheel yet but look forward to grating beets, carrots, and cheese with it. They have detailed instructions on how to cut different things in the manual.
With regard to washing, it's very easy - while there are minimal nooks/crannies associated with reinforcing structures inside the container and lid, they're still easy enough and apparently everything is dishwasher safe which I haven't tested.
Aside from handling sharp blades, there are good safeguards on the device, and even the food pushers include vents or holes so they could do double duty for slowly drizzling in things like oil or water. Just well engineered and a pleasure to use.
So in summary, this is built well, is a long-standing brand which means they offer replacement parts and other parts (thinner/thicker slicer blades, grater blades, and a french fry blade). I'm very pleased with this purchase so far.
Build:
Well into the realm of "I didn't think they built stuff like this anymore." Very high quality injection molding throughout. The motor is well balanced: very quiet in operation compared to other food processors i've used and very little vibration noted. You can see forging and work hardening lines in the stainless steel attachments. No signs of warping in the lexan. Very good loose interference fit at the feed tube plungers. Overall the industrial design and workmanship of this unit is on par with Zojirushi appliances or Kitchen-Aid mixers.
Ergonomics:
I like simple food processors. This one is simple in operation. On and off/pulse with high leverage switches. Perfect. The locking mechanisms work well so far without needless faffing. I wish the smaller feed tube was a little larger. The larger feed tube disengages the motor so operations like adding tahini or other messier items slowly have a higher chance of spillage or require a spouted container. I'm suspicious about how easy it will be to trap gunk around the locking mechanisms. I'm also suspicious that there isn't any sort of loading mechanism to keep the chopping blade in place.
Ease of cleaning: The manual recommends washing all pieces in the dishwasher. I don't have a newer dishwasher with neat little compartments to keep blades from being knocked around so the chopping blade will get hand washed. I'll update the review to assess how the lexan holds up from several months of dishwashing. I'm not a fan of the stainless steel fascia the machine has since I'd rather have white plastic appliances for their ease of cleaning and smaller visual weight.
Power and results: The first thing I made in this machine was a large batch of hummus. Outstanding power and very quiet. The results were extremely smooth. I think I'll be able to knead dough or make a fine pesto just fine. I'll update on milling uniformity, grating, and slicing when I try those.

After my third inexpensive food processor I decided to upgrade to this Cuisinart food processor. I couldn't be happier! Very powerful motor. Even cuts. Makes meal prep a breeze.
And very quiet. I highly recommend it.
Es sencillo de usar, tiene gran capacidad. Lo uso para hacer salsas, picar verdura, hacer pasta. Es un aparato y una marca que desquita lo que vale.
