Won't disappoint...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This processor is a workhorse. I had one exactly like it fo 30 years before it burned out. I was thrilled to find almost the same one. Only difference is the plastic bowl is not as strong as my last cuisinart. Hope this one lasts another 30 years. Powerful machine and won't disappoint.

Purchased diceing kit and spiraling too.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to assemble, use, clean and store. I love it.

Worth every penny!

So happy with this purchase! It stores everything in the bowl and makes my life so much easier!!! P.S. The warranty was amazing for a small appliance! Thank you!! I like when companies stand behind their own products!!

Cuisinart 13 cup food processor

This is the second Cuisinart food processor I have purchased. The first one lasted an amazing 25 years. I love how easy it makes cooking. Thanks Cuisinart.

Going on two and a half years

I use this processor every day - except Sunday, my day "off". I beat the crap out of this machine. Shredding and pulverizing lacinato kale by the crammed fistfuls, beets through the shredder disc and pulverized below - I have actually destroyed a shredder disc doing this in anger one too many times. Must be more gentle. I lose my temper in the kitchen easily and take it out on the machines. I think that Cuisinart - pronounced "Cousin Art" around here to lighten the mood - despite the reviews comparing it to earlier model build quality, makes a fine, robust appliance. I am getting another one, and relegating the "old" one as insurance/backup, because I cannot be without a food processor for even one day. My wife requires daily fresh vegan fare, which I, poor soul, am duty-bound to provide.

The old 11-cup was better

We replaced our broken 11-cup Cuisinart with model. It is significantly larger and that is a drawback as far as I am concerned. We don't need the 13-cup, but wanted the additional buttons.

Culinary is low quality marketed as high end

Terrible food processor. Pulse response time isn't reliable. Difficult to control chop. Sometimes you press and nothing happens. The switches are loose in the unit. Feels cheap. I reported to the company. Sent them a video. They won't do anything. Say it's normal. I had a cuisinart for over 30 years. What I have now is not normal. Disappointed. Won't buy the brand again. Warranty is a joke.

Disappointed

For the price, I expected this processor to be very good. However, it couldn't even process. Added small quantity but it still took forever grounding just a small amount. The food/vegetable wasn't even moving around. The cheapest Walmart food processor does a better job than this. Was so disappointed. Am returning

reply from Product Expert

We’re sorry to hear your Cuisinart® 13-Cup Core Custom Food Processor did not deliver the processing performance you expected. For smaller quantities, make sure the work bowl and blade are fully seated and try using the Pulse function in short bursts, stopping as needed to redistribute ingredients that remain along the sides of the bowl. If the food still does not circulate or process properly, please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 so we can assist. We value your experience and appreciate you taking the time to share your candid feedback with Cuisinart®.

do not buy

I had the original cuisinart food processor and finally need a new one. got this one and simply hate it. the bowl is impossible to scrape, when you blend it makes a mess and you can't use any tool to scrape it all back down into the bowl. i would give it a zero if the web site allowed. really disappointed with this product.
