Cuisinart 13-Cup Food Processor with Dicing Kit for Home Chefs

E. DeRosa: I got this after having cheaper ones for years. At first I was upset because it wouldn't turn on. I had it all locked together. My old ones had the handle facing the back. On this one, the locking safety pin is in the front. Even though it locked together tightly with the handle in the back, it gas to be in the front ti turn on. The picture shows this but it's not stated in the instructions

Thoughtful and Trueful: The value is off the chart. I am a vegan and I make mock meat which puts a strain on most food processors. This one is up to the task it move all over the counter. This machine has the perfect power for this task. I am still in awe the attachments are awesome crazy Yes… You will not fell this product is remanufactured. I add the additional warranty coverage. I got better coverage than if I bought new…. Don’t hesitate good as new…… If can for buy new if this isn’t available…..

Etznab: I bought this mostly because of the dicing attachment. It works great and is much more powerful than I expected. Squash and sweet potato diced much quicker than my knife work. But it is very difficult to clean. There is a tiny groove where food gets stuck in the blade. I had to use a toothbrush to get the food out. This was a refurbished product, but everything was packed like new. There are a bit too many safety features in my opinion, and it won't power on unless everything is aligned perfectly.

Amazon Customer: I purchased a refurbished Cuisinart FP-13DSV Elemental 13 Cup Food Processor and I am very happy with the considerable savings on this very high quality product. I've only had the machine for a couple of months but have already become accustomed to using it for a variety of tasks.

I use the large bowl to make pie dough, various types of hummus, and to slice and shred vegetables for salads and soups. I use the small bowl to chop nuts, mince garlic and ginger, make salad dressings and pestos.

However, I'm still deciding whether or not the dicing attachment is worth the effort. I really wish the unit came with more than one dicing grate size; the one that comes with the kit is quite small.

On the plus side, you can process chunks of vegetables very quickly and it is nice to end up with perfectly cubed bits, but I found I needed to stop and unstick debris on the dicing grate several times while processing.

It comes with an attachment to push through bits stuck in the grate, but this downgrades the time-saving element. The dicer works especially well on onions and white potatoes, but hard vegetables, such as beets or sweet potatoes are really too much for...

Willie Edward Redd: This food processor is quite amazing. One thing I wanted to be able to do is shred my own cheeses, get away from bagged cheeses. This thing shreds cheese so quickly and beautifully! I mean, once you insert the cheese and start the machine the cheese shreds in just 2 seconds or less. Amazing! Of course I’ve used it for cabbage, sliced and chopped onions and other vegetables. Also to process meats for chicken salad, chilli etc. all very quickly and easy. I never saw a use for a food processor. I was wrong!! I will be using this a lot and it will be one of my helpful tools that will remain on my countertop. My dishwasher top rack takes care of the cleaning. Love it! Update! I bought this equipment on June 7, 2020. It died today while I was shredding cheese. The motor would spin but stopped when the small block of cheese was inserted. It has shredded cheese beautifully since I bought it. But now it’s trash. So not even 3 full years later I’ll need to buy another food processor. No more cuisinart for me though. Because of this early failure I can no longer recommend this item. Please disregard my earlier review. I no longer recommend it.
