Cuisinart AFP-7 3-Cup Food Processor Attachment: The Ultimate Kitchen Companion for Quick and Easy Meal Prep

R. Juran: If you have the base this is well worth the investment. I have a thing for kitchen gadgets and I use everything I own. I like to make my own fruit/nut/protein bars and until recently had to hand mix and use a blender when possible. My wife and I already had the blender which is great, and we have a Kitchen-Aide stand mixer with all the attachments, but didn't have a food processor. We didn't want another full appliance to take up more space, so I found this and it is small enough to be put out of the way, but has a large enough capacity that I can make a big amount of bars or guac or hummus and so on.

The only drawback is food can get down into the processor blade and be a real pain to clean unless you have a baby bottle brush of sorts. If you are using stick items like dried fruit, soak the parts on hot, soapy water first for a good while to get the gunk loosened up. Otherwise you'll be fishing a rag or brush in there trying to get all the food out.

Capacity wise it is spot on, although if you are mixing something that will chunk up pretty well and you'll need to hold the mixer down since it will want to buck on high speeds. I haven't...

g626: the blender i bought came with this attachment. i will admit i didnt use it very much at first but as i started to use it i found out how time saving it can be. although the size could be an issue for some i find that i have more control over what i am doing with the smaller batch. clean up is relativitly easy. i was dishwashering my original one but i will do hand washing on this replacement. the original one lasted at least 5 years. the blades stayed sharp enough to chop up garlic for the life of the plastic bowl. now i use the new one for garlic and the old blade for pulverizing oats into flour. since i have two motor bases i will use both sets of replacement attachments i bought. if you dont drop them on the floor they will give you reasonable service for a long time. this is not what you want to use in a comertial kitchen. this is for grating the 3 pounds of hard cheese that you would be swearing at before you were done by hand. i would recommend this attachement to the occasional user that likes the skin to stay on their knuckles

C Smith: When I dropped and cracked the original food processor I thought I would have to purchase an entire unit. So imagine my surprise when I happened upon this replacement. It has been a while since I broke the original so I don’t remember how it performed. I can say this blade is extremely sharp, so please be very careful when washing (I learned the hard way). I find that it slices my veggies a bit too thin, it is also a bit difficult to use with thin items such as a single carrot or a chunk of pepper. In order to slice the entire carrot I had to insert a skewer into the end to hold it vertically as the carrot jumps around and gets caught on the blade thus inhibiting its ability to spin.

Ms. Merkin Rogers: I ORDERED THIS PRIMARILY FOR THE BLADES, AS EXTRAS FOR MY UNIT. IT CAME QUICKLY, WAS TO BE A 'NEW" ITEM, AND WAS JUST COVERED WITH MOTOR OIL!!!!!

AS MOST OF US DO WITH AMAZON WHEN WE RECEIVE A DEFECTIVE, (OR USED, OIL COVERED), WRONG ITEM, WE HAVE TO DECIDE IF IT IS EVEN WORTH THE EXPENSE, HASSLE, OF RETURNING AT ALL, WHICH THESE SELLERS RELY ON, WE READ ALL THE TIME IN REVIEWS, (BILLIONS IN THESE PHONY, DAMAGED, FALSE SALES NOT CHALLENGED DUE TO TIME, AGGRAVATION).

NovaPain: I bought this to replace the 3-cup food processor that I have been breaking slowly for the past 3 years. The final blow came when I needed to shred raw chicken. I didn't chop the chicken small enough & added too much. Before I did that I broke the pusher piece, the lid and dropped the whole appratus a few times. It has been taking a beating from me for years.

I tried to find this on the internet, and had almost no luck. I really didn't want to buy a new food processor, I just wanted to replace what I broke. I found it here & received it in a few days and love it. I am trying not to break it this time. It is a great product that works well & I am happy to have it.
