Review: Great medium sized food processor - I recently received this food processor and have already had the opportunity to use it several times. It's easy to use, cleans up in the dishwasher, and does a nice even job of chopping. I would like to address some of the complaints I've read here in the comments. First, the bowl and lid attach very similarly to all Kitchenaid food processors. I get that it might be different than how others work, and might be tricky if you aren't familiar with it, but one you understand how it works, it's easy. I've had no problems at all getting the bowl and lid to lock into place and to release. Remember -- don't force it! If it's difficult you're doing something slightly off. With regards to the complaints about sturdiness and quality -- no, this is the not same quality as my big Kitchenaid food processor that I bought in about 1985, (which still works, btw, but I can't get a new bowl!). However, I paid somewhere in the range of $350- $400 for that one back in 1985! So, no, I don't expect this food processor to be as heavy duty as the old one. Still, the motor runs smoothely, the base has some weight to it, and it works just fine! I don't expect it will last 40 years like the last one, but for the price, that's ok. I almost didn't buy this one based on some of the reviews. I'm glad I took the chance and tried it. It's a great little machine, works well, and doesn't take up too much room on my counter.
Review: great little product! - I bought this to use in my RV as its small size is easy to stow. Chops quickly and evenly so does the job. I appreciate that it's 5 cups instead of three cups, so I can chop more. They accomplish this with a taller bin. I worried that the tall size would affect chopping efficiency, but it's not an issue. It works so well, I use it at home. Why use this over my full size food processor? With my big unit, all the bowls, lids, and blades fill up my dishwasher, while the parts from this only take up a small space in the dishwasher drawer. Some notes about how this works: You twist on the bowl, drop in the spindle, slip the blade over the spindle, then twist on the lid. A lever on the side is marked "chop" and "pulse" but it's actually low speed/high speed. To activate, you press a tab on top of the handle; hold to spin, tap to pulse. You get two processing attachments which fit over the spindle: a metal cutting blade and a plastic disk (used for emulsifying stuff like salad dressings. It works well.) There's a slot at the base where you can wrap the cord in a tidy way. Overall, a great product.

A: It can finely chop the carrots but not grate it.

**Q: que potencia (watios) tiene?**
A: 240 Watts/watios

**Q: Im trying to decide if this is large enough for my needs,. I make cake pops and use a food processor to crumble the cake.  Any idea if this will hold**
A: This isn't a large chopper.  An efficient crumbling volume would probably be the equivalent of cake for 5 pops.

**Q: Has anyone made Pesto with this Chopper?**
A: I have not personally made pesto with this food chopper, but check out videos abouth the food chopper on You Tube. I believe that some examples of how to make the pesto are there.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 cups is perfect!
*by H***P on March 24, 2026*

Easy to use, easy clean up and is nicely compact and good looking. Smaller sized spatulas are super helpful to get everything out of the canister . Very happy with the purchase and quality of the item. Saw it was on sale and had to get it right away!
