[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this mini food processor the day before Thanksgiving to make cranberry orange relish. When I tried to use it neither my husband nor I could get it to run. I am unsure if we damaged it trying to lift the lid off per the directions in the enclosed booklet or it was just defective. Actually the lid twists off we discovered. I called the help line and talked wit a very polite and helpful lady. She actually got the same product and went through the steps for use. Our machine would not work and she immediately obtained the info to sent us another processor.. I ended up using my blender for the relish and received a new food processor in a few days. Returning the defective one was very easy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love seafood, but sometimes the vegetable prep took forever since we had to cut it one by one and tomatoes were my woe. Now i chop everything in less than 5 minutes and it comes out perfect every single time. I Love It!!! As a family of 6, It's a life saver for me.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While I stand by the KitchenAid products, this blender is not easy to use. The on/off feature is by pushing down on the lid over the handle. This is awkward and clumsy when removing the lid to empty the bowl. The safety feature of the lid switch has to be very closely aligned that I have wasted time trying to get parts align so it will switch 'on'. Once I got everything aligned, the bender does a really good job! It will chop, mince, and cream anything I put in it, which is what I expect from a KitchenAid.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this as a Christmas present, and I waited till I had a chance to put it through its' paces. I made a double recipe of Irish Potato & Herb Soup. 2Lbs of Potatos, 2 large carrots, and 2 large onions, 6 oz. ham. Normally I would have used a mandolin to cut up the veg, as the old mini chopper had gone through its' 3rd bowl and lid combination (the locking points keep breaking). It gave a nice fine set of chopped veggies and ham. The locking points on the KitchenAid are internal and not sticking out like the old unit, so they shouldn't break. Do want to get a second bowl and lid combo, so I can wash one, and still have one ready for other courses of the meal. My wife likes it because it's quieter than the old one, that was noisy from the get go. Do love the electric cord management, Takes up a lots less space than having a dangly cord.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this roughly a month ago and have used several times already! I have a full size food processor but its kind of a pain to pull out and clean. This mini one fits easily on my counter and then into the dishwasher as well. The reason I gave it four stars instead of five is that I've tried to do a few things on the puree function and it doesn't work out so well. Everything just kind of gets stuck to the sides. Not sure if it's user error or if the blades aren't quite long enough?

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this processor to replace an old Cuisinart model that I had for years and years. I choose it because of its "look" of stainless steel which matches my current kitchen appliances which includes a new Kitchen Aid stove. The mini processor has several design features which make food preparation easier for the home cook. The top a a well place spout through which you can add liquids such as oil and water slowly while the processor is running. It can chop, blend, and puree. The nifty channel that houses the cord for storage is easy to use. The mechanism on the handle for depressing the start button holds your finger or thumb very comfortably. It is easy to disassemble and clean and stores away nicely in the cabinet with no cord hanging down. I love it.

Bought 2 one for the cottage. One did not work had to return it. Chops okay but the start /stop access on the handle is inconvenient and requires too much fiddling around. Look is fine. Slider is annoying to change from chop to mince. Wasn't the least expensive product but not the most either. Overall disappointed. I did keep the working one

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A few months ago my old mini food processor gave out and I needed to replace it. I used it nearly everyday in preparing food for my disabled son who needs to eat food that is chopped. I decided on the KitchenAid because of its nice modern design and the stainless steel look which matched other appliances in my kitchen. I use it daily for a variety of smaller food preparation needs and I am delighted with it. It chops, purees and blends beautifully. I couldn't be happier. I recommend this mini processor without reservation.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this about 3 weeks ago and here is my critique: Straight out of the box it is a little difficult to assemble the food bowl onto the base. There are no handgrips or indents to grasp. So my hands aren't always dry when preparing food. The base keeps slipping in my fingers. Another thing I noticed is that there are no recipes for a novice cook. For example perhaps a simple salsa, or mayonnaise or even Hummus. Just 2 or 3 simple ideas to get someone started. On the positive side: This little baby is perfect for those occasions when you are not prepping for a large group. It chops and purees perfectly and quickly with minimal noise. Clean-up is super easy and it takes up so little space on my work counter. All in all I love this mini processor.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this food processor for Christmas. I was skeptical at first whether this little guy could chop and dice evenly and with little effort. WOW .... uniformed chopped pieces of onions, carrots and other veggies!!! Quick, easy and with little effort on my part. I highly recommend this food processor!! One side note....it does take a little effort to completely close and lock the bowl onto the base but I'm sure that's a safety feature. Thanks again Kitchen Aide for another helpful appliance in my kitchen !!
