i like it, dont get me wrong, but it does not perform as espectacularly as i expected. the juice feature, which was one of the things that made me pick this unit, does not work. the motor needs so much force that it burned the rubber gasket and now i cannot use it. the other attachments are fine.  Read Less

My old food processor finally bit the dust, and I replaced it first, about six months ago, with a top-of-the-line KA. It was in the $250 range, as I recall. It was hate at first sight. It was heavy; it required an immense amount of space to store; it was finicky--really, who has time to pull out the instruction booklet every time you use an appliance? The lid alone had three pieces, all of which had to be in perfect alignment for it to operate. I threw it away to keep anyone else from having to suffer with it Scarred by that mistake, I was reluctant to jump right into another online purchase, but out of desperation, I gave it one more try and purchased this baby. And I am so very, very glad that I did. It is light; it is quiet (everyone has remarked on it); it shreds and chops perfectly; and using it is as intuitive as possible. The lid only has one piece, and because it has a horizontal, rather than vertical, footprint, it takes much less storage (because the bowl and lid can be stored in place, on the machine; with a vertical footprint, that configuration is too tall for most cabinets). I have used it for regular chopping jobs as well as for grinding chicken, and it has made short work of everything. Although price was not my primary consideration, this was also substantially less expensive than many of the models out there. It was certainly less expensive than my Food Processor of Regret that is now taking up space in a landfill.  Read Less
