| Kitchen Aid KFPW760 12 Cup Food Processor |
| User Reviews: |
 Written on September 22, 2008 Summary: Excellent Food Processor Line ... from a Cuisinart Switcher We have owned 2 Cuisinarts, and my sister worked for Cuisinart. My wife and I know how to use food processors and we have used Cuisinarts literally for decades. When it came time to replace our latest Cuisinart (15 years old), we naturally went looking for another. What we found was cheapened quality and a soured reputation due to lousy customer service. Meanwhile, KitchenAid has risen as a competitor to the point where some of their models consistently rank above the equivalent Cuisinarts in professional reviews. Even so, we looked at the KitchenAids with some skepticism, even though we own and are very happy with two of their mixers. Comparing the KitchenAids against the Cuisinarts side-by-side, we found the KitchenAids were easier to assemble and disassemble, FAR easier to lock on bowls and lids, and have a much better juicer. The Cuisinart juicer, in fact, is what did our last machine in. I believe its bearings simply weren't designed for the thrust pressure of juicing. The KitchenAid juicer simply drops into the main bowl and has a nice press cover, i.e., you don't have to push directly down on the fruit. The Cuisinart juicer has multiple parts and is fussy to assemble and disassemble. The KitchenAid (we bought a 760) comes with a selection of slicing blades, a chopping blade, dough blade, a drop-in smaller inner bowl with its own blades for small jobs, and a case that holds all the accessories. Nothing more to buy. The KitchenAid uses an induction motor, noticably quieter than the Cuisinart, and the unit is heavier. Cuisinart claims a higher wattage rating, but given that the KitchenAid base is heavier (both have plastic covers), I'm suspicious of the worth of Cuisinart's numbers. Motor longevity is directly rated to the weight of windings and motor cores. Reports (some here on Amazon) of Cuisinarts smoking under heavy use only tend to confirm the suspicion. After comparing the two brands, we wound up selecting the KitchenAid, selecting the wide mouth version of the 12 cup processor over the narrow. While you have to use the pusher on the wide mouth model, and the pusher doesn't engage the lock mechanism until part-way down, the pusher still has a conventional, open drop tube. I.e., you don't lose anything with the wide-mouth version in terms of being able to drop ingredients in, and are still able to take advantage of the wide mouth when you need it. Performance is superb. Take a look at KitchenAid's food processor line. These are serious machines for serious cooks. KitchenAid, by the way, enjoys a reputation for superb service responsiveness. Written on September 16, 2008 Summary: Works great I've used all accessories of the food processor and it works great. Fresh orange juice with the juice press, whipped cream and whipped egg whites with the egg beater, chopped nuts as well as sliced and shredded veggies and cheese. All the parts work very well although the egg beater is fiddly to put together. I don't have a dishwasher and cleaning all the nooks in the handle, accessories, and lid takes a while. The one thing that could be improved is that the lid leaks when one works with liquids. The blade rotation causes the liquid to slosh up against the lid and some of it will get out. That's also a bit annoying when I'm working with the small bowl (inside the main bowl) because it usually gets the large bowl slightly dirty/wet, too. All in all though, the food processor works great and I've been using it almost every time I cook or bake. Written on August 29, 2008 Summary: KitchenAid Review The product came with a rebate, and I sent this as a gift. I never saw the rebate, nor did the person receiving the gift. Written on August 6, 2008 Summary: Wonderful! We just received this food processor last night and used it right away. We are replacing a Cuisinart food processor/blender with this one. I have always hated how insanely loud the Cuisinart is (it would leave my ears ringing). This one is such a pleasure to use - it's very quiet! Written on August 2, 2008 Summary: solid product This is everything that it says it is going to be. I have used this food processor for some very large jobs and very small jobs and it consistently does a great job. Clean up without a dishwasher is a little tedious. otherwise a great buy for the money. |
