I’ve been wanting a food processor for years but for several reasons a full sized machine didn’t make sense for me. After coming across a review for the mini-prep, I decided to try it and have been very pleased. It’s worth the price just for chopping onions!

Simple. Effective. Cleans up easily. Unless you're preparing in large volume, this is the unit you want on your counter. At the price you could buy one every year and be happy. I JUST bought my second in 17 years, and only because i dropped and cracked it. Motor still runs line a champ!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This little processor is great! I've used the Mini-Prep for chopping ingredients for tuna or chicken salad, chopping veggies for chili, chopping cheese, nuts for a pie crust, making hummus / baba ganouj, salsa, pesto, purees, sauces, etc. It can handle anything I choose to process. Looks like I just wore out the first one I used. This is my 2nd Mini-Prep, because the 1st one I had for 9 years finally bit the dust. The blades would spin great when it was empty, but if you put in any food (resistance), --regardless of size--the motor would spin, but not the blade spindle--even a new one; ... so, I now have replacement parts if I should ever need them. Getting such good use for so long from the 1st one I bought, I decided to get another one.

This little chopper is really powerful! I only cook for 2 so seldom use my full size food processor. When my Black & Decker mini chopped broke (2nd one!) I decided to some research on mini choppers. The Mini-Prep had great reviews, and even though it was about twice the cost of my old choppers, the reviews were so great I decided to take the plunge. The very first time I used this chopper I knew it was in a different league! What a great, powerful, fast chopper! It’s perfect.

It’s quite small, but that’s what I was looking for. I have a much larger Cuisinart food processor I love to use when I cook. I bought this small one for my mom, who keeps losing teeth. When I’m serving her a meal she can’t chew, I put her food in with a bit of water and grind it up. 1-2-3 and it’s done, a nice consistency that’s easy for her to eat.

I bought this a couple months ago to work along side of my old DLC8 processor. I love hummus and started doing everything from scratch. Start with dry garbanzos and raw sesame seeds. Specifically, I use this small one for making tahini sauce. The combination blade that cuts and grinds works perfectly, especially when I can slowly drip oil right from the lid. It is great for chopping things like sun dried tomatoes to add into the hummus. Big jobs call for the big processor. Small supporting roles do not work as well in the big machine, so this Mini-Prep really shines for processing small batches. I have had my DLC8 for 30 years, only having to replace the work bowl and lid. I hope to be using this a very long time.

We have a full-sized Cuisinart food processor. It has served our family well for decades. I went vegan and needed something that could quickly chop onions, grind seeds, and make sauces for just one person. (My family still eats meat and milk products.) This little powerhouse does it all, quickly and dependably. And it cleans up quickly and easily. I am thrilled with it.

The inside of the bowl is smooth which makes scraping out chopped product easy. It works flawlessly. So far I've used it mostly to chop onions and garlic. You can stop it at the particular size you desire or grind it down to mush. Love it, and you will too!

I've used this product a couple times since receiving it. It's working very well. Keep in mind that it is a smaller version, so if the recipe calls for a lot of prep, you'll have to so in batches due to the capacity of the cup. But, all in all I'm happy with the purchase, and it stores very easily based upon its size.

This works well. But the blade assembly, being plastic, eventually cracks. I have bought 3 so far, first 2 eventually cracked. Same design each time, same crack. Motor has not given out, still strong. I don't us it on anything hard, But better than what else is out there for the price.
