Food Processor survey

I am looking at the Kitchenaid 11 cup food processor and the comparable Cuisinart 11 cup processor. Both come with a small bowl which attaches inside the large bowl.

Any preferences between the two products? Anyone like a different manufacturer better? I am open to all opinions.

Thank you! D~

This year I bought my 2nd Cuisinart 11 cup food processor and a new Kitchen Aid Mixer. I had bought both previously in the 70's. Since I've been relatively happy with both over the years, I've stuck with exactly the same thing.

I would advise buying an extra Cuisinart food processor plastic bowl. There has been a Cusinart at Costco which includes two bowls. I say this because I had to buy a bowl several years ago and it cost A LOT.

If you plan to use your Cuisinart for making bread: I like my new Cuisinart because of the Dough/Low settings. I use both the Cuisinart food processor and the Kitchen Aid Mixer (and a bread machine) to make bread. Ilike them all.

Hope this helps. Dee

I have been using a Braun FP for at least 20 years. It works great. The replacement bowls are around $10. That's one reason I like the Braun. Anytime that I have needed parts they have been very inexpensive.

I've been using a Black & Decker ShortCut for oh, about 17 years. Still chops fine - but the shredder shaft cracked and I can't use that anymore.

That being said, I do plan on buying something new. I want something with a larger bowl and a little more control of speed, etc. So I'll probably end up with a Cuisinart.

Cuisinart is a good machine, but if you are looking for speed control, the Braun models have an infinitely variable speed control. I haven't seen that in any other brands. You can see them here:

Looks like cuisinart is the winner. Thank you for your responses.
