Cuisinart Mini-Prep Plus Food Processor, 3-cup Mini Food Processor to Chop Herbs, Vegetables, and Hard Cheese, 3-cup Work Bowl, Reversible Stainless Steel Blade, DLC-2APK, Pink

Good price, good quality, works well, very compact, small and handy

Works perfectly! It's very easy to use. I like it for chopping vegetables. The only con for me was the red color I ordered did not match the other red appliances in my kitchen, however that's just cosmetic. It does what I need it to do.

Works well for smaller uses. It is a good value for a compact food processor and seems to handle different types of uses. Easy to clean and store.

The Cuisinart Mini-Prep Plus is a kitchen essential for small, everyday tasks. Its 24-ounce bowl is perfectly sized for chopping herbs, grinding hard cheeses, or whipping up quick pestos and dressings without the hassle of a full-sized processor. Quality & Performance: The build quality is impressive for its size, and it works exactly as expected. The Auto-Reversal blade feature—sharp on one side for chopping and blunt on the other for grinding—makes it surprisingly versatile. It’s powerful, easy to clean, and takes up very little counter space. Verdict: A reliable, high-quality workhorse for any home cook who values efficiency and space.

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).

Always wanted one. Works well. Got it for a great price.

This is my 2nd one, I used it so much I wore it out! I’ve had it for about 7 or more years. The price went up and I needed to wait for it to go on sale. YAY for Prime Days!! I used it when our kids were living at home and now there’s just the 2 of us, use it for chopping veggies, fruits and nuts. Same thing: smaller in size about 3 cups, easy to manage, doesn’t take up much counter space, durable, dishwasher safe (on the top) always easy to assemble, and swift ease to use. The blades were always sharp after all those years. Zip, zip, zip done!! Love it!!!

3 cup size (24 oz) is an excellent alternative to the much larger food processors. Smaller size means MUCH easier to clean by hand — and yes it’s dishwasher safe. Clever 2-button system of “chop” vs “grind” is implemented by a blade which has two cutting edges on opposite sides, so it spins clockwise to chop and counter-clockwise to grind. The two end up being different. Ever have the problem where you start something like basil chopping, and the bottom half of the leaves gets all chopped but the top half doesn’t get chopped at all? I was pleased to discover that if you alternate pushing the “chop” and “grind” buttons, that solves that problem! The “grind” button actually pulls the top half down so you can “chop” it. Note that if you want to continually chop, or grind, you need to hold the button down. There’s no “keep chopping” function like the older mini Cuisinart choppers had. Frankly, I don’t think that feature is worth it at all, and after using this chopper, I don’t miss it. It is no problem to just hold your finger on the button for 10 seconds. And it’s just as easy as before to pulse it. The only (mild) negative I found is that it is more finicky than I expected in locking the bowl onto the machine before it will turn on. You have to put the bowl down with the handle pointing just precisely so (about 7:00 position), then turn it to the 6:00 position, with more precision than previous models, and no clear mark or indicator to guide you. But after a few moments of struggling, you’ll figure it out. Overall, this was a very worthwhile purchase. I recommend.

This is not suitable in our family . To operate this a additional requirement is required which I don't want to buy.

Es un buen procesador prácticamente para raciones para 2 personas, muy fácil de usar, uno presiona los botones el tiempo necesario para dejar el picado o batido de los alimentos según nuestras necesidades. Muy satisfecho

NOT FOR THE EU COMES WITH A US PLUG!!! I can smell the engine when I run it even when using an adaptor. I think the wattage is too high for the EU. Also can’t put the barrel in the dishwasher or food gets stuck in side the handle and it has a special type of screw to unscrew it so I can’t get it clean. Don’t buy.

My cusinart blade is plastic made so got rubbed and not working. Can't grind. So sad

Assez puissant. Solide. Facile et pratique d’utilisation. Bon emballage. Livraison respecté. C’est un outil indispensable dans une cuisine.
