Cuisinart Food Processor, 14-Cup Vegetable Food Chopper for Mincing, Dicing, Shredding, Puree & Kneading Dough, 720-Watt Motor, Stainless Steel, DFP-14BCNY

I’ve owned the Cuisinart 14-Cup Food Processor for more than 33 years, and it’s still performing as well today as when I first brought it home. That’s one of the highest compliments I can give any kitchen appliance.The first time I used it, I actually struggled getting the lid to lock — I pressed ‘on’ and nothing happened. I’m not usually a read-the-manual type 😂, but I finally checked the directions: you align the lid, push down, turn it left to lock, then turn it back right before pressing on. I did all that… and it still didn’t work. Turns out the real issue was that I hadn’t plugged it in

Reviews are so sketchy these days so it's no wonder trying to find a quality product is anxiety inducing. People do not take the time to look something over before trying to assemble it. The user manual and instruction booklet are in the description in PDF format and are printable. I might add they are also quite detailed. This was a common complaint in the reviews, "no instructions". It's been a number of years since there were user manuals included with a product.We had a Cuisinart food processor in 2019 but was enticed away by the bells and whistles of the Ninja all in one and gave it away

Easy to use, easy to clean, quiet, works like a charm. Great machine, terrific kitchen helper. Blades fit in cup for storage. I love it.

This is a very sturdy, very powerful and very quiet food processor. I think it’s the third food processor I’ve owned. I am enjoying the larger bowl size for sure.So far I have used it to make pico de gallo and shredded cabbage for coleslaw and cut onions for hotdogs. It did a great job for all of it. I used the chopping blade for the pico de Gallo and the onions. And I used the shredding disk attachment for the cabbage for the slaw.At first, I couldn’t get it to turn on, ☺️ but, that’s because I had the feeder tube too full for the metal spine on the back of the pusher to completely engage the

I purchased a new 14 cup Cuisinart food processor to replace a 10-year-old 11 cup Cuisinart. On the positive side the newer model is more powerful and just as sturdy as the old unit; it is simpler to use, easier to operate, and has fewer pieces to disassemble and clean. The one significant downside is the 10-year-old unit included four blades whereas the new unit came with 2. Particularly galling was the omission of a 2mm slicing blade, which is now a $50 accessory. Grrr...

This machine was easy to figure out. I like the safety features. I am utterly amazed at how well this machine works. I sliced cucumbers for 28 pints of pickles today and it took less than five minutes. I've also used the chopping blades and that was also very effective. I like this machine so much that I'm putting away my stand mixer so I have room for it on my counter. It was recommended by America's Text Kitchen, so I had high hopes for it, and it delivers.

I had this unit for 18 months before the motor died. It had been used maybe 3 times in that period and when it worked it worked beautifully. It’s a great product. Despite the unit failing so soon I’m still rating this highly as the product support I got from Cuisinart was simply exceptional. After some basic troubleshooting on the phone, my customer service guy set up a replacement under warranty. I can’t praise their after sales service enough.

This thing.....it's my best friend. Hands down, no joke, I'm in love. I don't use it everyday, and sometimes not for a week or so, but when I need it, it's there. And it never fails, as soon as I use it for something I'm looking around the kitchen to see what else I can slice/chop/shred, because it's fun to use and mind-glowingly simple. I'm upset with myself for waiting so long to buy this. It is the most expensive thing I've ever bought for my kitchen (appliances not included), and I would buy it again in a heartbeat. The only thing is it's too tall to fit on my counter, beneath the upper ca
