Cuisinart Mini-Prep Plus Food Processor, 24-Ounce Mini Food Processor to Chop Herbs, Vegetables, and Hard Cheese, 24-Ounce Work Bowl, Reversible Stainless Steel Blade, DLC-2A, White

Great little unit when you don't want to drag out the big boy. Minces garlic well 1 or 20 cloves. Good for making emulsified salad dressing. Chopping up panko to get finer.

Mainly bought it for the chopper aspect as our old one broke however it works well in all functionalities. The design is clean and modern and is easy to use as there are only a few buttons. Blade size is good, seems like it will be durable and useable for some time. It was also discounted compared to the other colors which was a plus given that it looks sleek and modern.

I've had a large, heavy 14-cup Cuisinart food processor for years, which I love and have used for everything from making bread dough to shredding cheese, pureeing soups or other blender-type tasks, dicing vegetables, and even making nut butters, oat flour, and more. But it's so large and heavy and was a pain to get out for small things, plus the large work bowl wasn't well suited for some of these smaller tasks, either.So, I finally decided to get one of these. It's great! It's lightweight, easy to get out or put away, and is very convenient for small tasks. In my case, I often use it to make just a cup of oat flour or to "blend" blueberries and bananas into plain yogurt as an easy breakfast. It's so convenient I've used it almost every day for the last month (since I got it), unlike my large model that I only got out if I really thought the effort was worth it. It's also fairly easy to clean. The manual says all removable parts ares dishwasher safe, but I've mostly been hand washing to make sure it's ready for the next day (but the dishwasher has also worked).There are some disadvantages, one obvious: it's quite small, so it's not suitable for larger jobs (or heavier--the motor says 250 W; my large one is 720 W). Even with a 4-cup bowl, I can't imagine making much more than 1 cup of oat flour or similar dry ingredients before it gets to be too much. But that's perfect for me -- it's actually better than my large one for this small of an amount. It's also quite loud. I got ear plugs to wear while using it, which I know sounds excessive but really seems like a good idea with this unit.Other disadvantages include a non-waterproof lid (or really anything-proof): there are two small holes in the top, apparently by design. This mostly isn't a problem unless it's probably too full -- again, you won't really get a full 4 cups -- and the contents are watery; in actual use, this has rarely come up for me. Also, replacement parts practically cost more than the unit itself, which I discovered after I considered buying another bowl, lid, and blade (to worry about washing less) since I'm using mine almost every day. Some may also not like that the unit is gray but is actually plastic instead of stainless steel, though I don't personally mind.All things considered, this is a great unit as long as you're aware of the capacity and power--but it works well for its size! If you're like me and want an alternative to your larger food processor, I'd consider this one (but if you're looking for mostly larger jobs, probably start with one of those instead).

This looks nice. I got a red one. Its all plastic except blade. Easy to clean. It does not seem as sturdy as my 20 yr old 1 cup. I replaced with this one bc the blade in old one is dull. Nothing is made heavy duty or long lasting anymore. This chopper works. Its larger than my 1.5 cup chopper but not able to handle 2 or 3 cups either. I haven't figured out how to make it chop evenly. You are supposed to pulse it rather than steadily holding chop or grind button. I chop carrots and other veggies. Onions, nuts. I can only do one cup at a time. If you think to chop a large amount at one time, forget it. This does chop. The blade is quite sharp. If you overfill, it will spill out. Again, getting it to chop evenly has eluded me. There are always larger pieces that get missed while the rest gets overly pulverized. I wld recommend hand washing it. I dont think the cup or lid wld survive the temp in dishwasher. I kept it bc I needed one with a sharp cutting blade. Im not a daily or big time cook. It suits me for now. I have other Cuisinart brand kitchen supplies. This is not their worst but, not their best either.

Great. Fast. Compact size. Easy to grind n chop for anyone with arthiritis.

I've had this mini processor for some time now and ... thumbs way up.This is one of the best investments I've ever made for my kitchen, and a bargain to boot. While I do have a full sized Cuisinart food processor with all the bells, whistles, blades and other gadgets, and I still use it for big jobs, it is heavy and cumbersome to clean after use. This little machine is perfect for small, quick jobs ... garlic cloves, ginger, spices, nut butters, a quick pesto, and the list never ends. It takes up almost no space in the cupboard and clean up is a breeze with only three parts (main container, blade and lid.) A lot of times I just throw in a cup of warm water, a squirt of Dawn and spin it, then rinse the parts individually.At such a great price, I highly endorse this little time saver. Not sure how I lived without one. I would buy again!!

Great to have a space-saving food processor, one that doesn’t take up the entire kitchen. Can chop or purée food quickly. It’s a bit more noisy than expected, but I love it anyway. Well-packed and delivered quickly. Thank you Seller

Excellent small appliance the perfect size works very well and easy to clean 👍👍
