Cuisinart Mini-Prep Processor Stainless Steel

The Cuisinart Mini-Prep food processor stands 8 inches tall and just over 4 inches wide, but don't let the size fool you. The base houses a motor so powerful that you need to stabilize it with one hand when using the high setting to whip up a strawberry-banana smoothie for one in less than a minute. The clear plastic prep bowl locks into place with a simple twist, while the blades can be set sharp side up for chopping onions or grating Parmesan cheese, or turned blunt side up for making walnut pesto or whipping up chocolate frosting. The set includes a spatula and a cleaning brush to remove coffee grounds.

For best results, cut ingredients into small, even pieces--about 1/2-inch square or so works well. In general, use the sharp-edge approach for low speed and the blunt side of the blades for high speed. If you need to run the motor for longer than one minute, pause and begin again. The bowl, cover, and blade assembly can all be run through the dishwasher, but watch your fingers when dissembling the machine, as the blades are extremely sharp. --Irene Svete

No complaints about this bowl. The small size is fine for our needs but we don't prepare large or fancy meals very often. I bought a replacement bowl for my DLC-1SS because the bowl became really dingy and filthy-looking after using it to grind some allspice. The texture of the spice acted like sandpaper and scarred the inside surface and it looks dirty all of the time.

I bought this product for making baby food for my daughter and I love it. It is nice and small so I can leave it on the counter and not have to put it away all the time. I also love that it is easy to take apart and put back together for easy cleaning.

I really should have read the title for this food processor a bit more carefully! It says "mini" and it is mini. It works great, looks swell, but it does not have the capacity I needed. Solely my fault for not really perusing the title more carefully.

I needed to replace my old one as the blade casing cracked and once I looked up the price for the replacement part I was smarter to just buy a new one! It's great and is very reliable. I can always count on this little machine to chopped and mince whatever I need it to do. Can't live without it. I liked the new color choices and chose the black stainless steel one...very nice looking! I thought about going just a bit bigger but decided not to mess with perfection! You won't be unhappy. Enjoy!!

I needed a replacement for my broken "Cuisinart DLC-1SS Mini-Prep Processor, Brushed Stainless Steel" since we use it for the baby to mix and blend foods. The seller had send this item fast and with no problems, for which I am very thankful. I will definitely buy from this seller again in the future.
This is a great and indespensible item for all who have babies, by the way.
Thank you.
