I gave this thing a 3 because the puree setting works eventually. Chopping not so good. First it's listed at 3.5 cup processor but anything more than about 1 cup and it's a mess a lot of big pieces and chunks along with a lot of very small bits and if you keep running it to chop it all you get a lot of mush. I tried onion, celery and carrots. Carrots worked best as long as you want a very fine chop. Onions and celery it turned to mush that ruined a chicken salad by turning the mayo into a thin liquid.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used to have a mini food processor and when it died I didn't really miss it. Then I was given this to test in exchange for my honest review and I am so happy I have it! I have a 13-cup Kitchenaid Food Processor, a Vitamix blender, Cutco knives and Pampered Chef gadgets galore, so why in the world would I need a mini food processor? As it turns out, I use this almost daily! To cut veggies for tuna salad or meatloaf, to whip up my blue cheese salad dressing, to scramble eggs for my family, to make applesauce, grate parmesan cheese, make bread crumbs, hummus, and salsa, all done very quickly. It's a great size, and I love that the cord stores easily in the bottom, just wish there was a place to secure the plug. After I figured out how to lock the bowl in place, it's very easy to use. I like that there are two settings, and how easy it is to start the motor by pressing with my thumb on the bowl cover. The bowl has a handle for easy pouring, and the Twilight Blue color is gorgeous.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Takes two hands to get work bowl snapped into locked position. Love the handle and pour spout and fact that blade stays in place when pouring. So far have only used it to chop but am satisfied with performance. Really like that cord stores around bottom.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great little chopper that works well, cleans up great, and doesn't take up a lot of room. Perfect size for making dips and salsas, pie crust, cheese balls, garnishes, baby food... very versatile! I would definitely recommend this for yourself or for a gift for someone else. Thinking of getting another for my daughter who has 2 children and loves to make everything home made!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We like KitchenAid products because of its reliability. We bought this processor because of its size and beautiful outlook. After we used it couple of times, it's really a good machine and the food is processed as expected. We are very happy about it. KitchenAid do a very good job.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought it as a replacement for similar kitchenaid chopper that was no longer functional to clean because apparently the blade welded itself to the base unit after being running in short bursts to chop some cooked meat chops. The lid came apart immediately with use and it seems prone to the same over heating issue as the first one. Have to be ginger with it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This updated design is a great improvement on the other style. I really like the ease of use and disassembly for cleaning. It is a great size for small jobs - I even make small quantities of pastry in it! Love that the cord easily winds around the base for storage. All in all a great little machine.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been wanting a food processor for quite a while. However, storage space has always been an issue. When I discovered the KitchenAid Mini Food Processor, I was thrilled. I used it the first time within a few days of purchase and it did a fantastic job. This is a keeper and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a food processor.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has the quality we have come to expect from kitchenaid. It is a small powerhouse that I keep on the counter for all those little jobs I don't want to use my knife for when the arthritis in my hands is acting up.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had "many" small choppers. None have been able to chop and purée like this one. I put four garlic cloves in without any liquid and it chopped it to perfection. I did run into a problem with the blade (insert ring broke).
