Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I would have given if 4.5 stars if there was a choice for that. Some cleaning issues (see towards end below) detracted from 5 stars.
I've been using it almost daily for 6 months now and love it. I mainly use it to chop all kinds of vegetables, make pesto, chop garlic, and grate cheese. I picked it for is capacity, since I wanted to minimize my choping time by doing more at once. But, found its very easy cleanup and powerful motor a big bonus. I can fill it to the rim with onions, carrots, kale, what ever, and it is well designed to not only chop when the thing is full, but efficiently move the stuff so that it is chopped throughout, and not just at the bottom. You do have to fill it aleast to a minimum level for this action to work.
I though I should respond to that wildly negative feedback:
>1. It's well over a foot tall and very bulky, taking up ALOT of space. This thing is HUGE.
*well, it is not so huge, but it has a base about equal to the size of the container capacity. So, if you want to use less buy something else with less capacity.
>2. The cord is under the machine and wraps around manually underneath.
*who cares? I never fuble with the cord or wrap it around anything.
>3. The suction cups on the bottom sound like a good idea, but they're more of a pain.
*this is true. It would have been nice if the had a quick release feature. They hold very strong, which is needed sometimes because of its strong power jerks on pulse mode.
>4. I've tried pureeing with it several times. Unless it's filled to the max, it just pushes the food to the side and the blades chop air.
*probably an exaduration, but you do have put enough for the blades to work right. Probably midway is right. I puree tomatoes and pesto with no problem.
>5. I've used the slicing and shredding disks on potatoes, carrots and cheeses and am very disappointed.
*I agree. Slicing is adequate, but the shredding is poorly designed, where if you don't do it right you get chucks that whip around violently. It is controlable to get decent results if you work with it, though.
It is also good quality design. My main, if not only, con is there are some moving parts in the lid that are very hard to clean. It is relatively minor, but could have been done better.
For the price, I could find nothing close to this capacity and power.
Thought I should give back a detailed feedback since other's feedback has always been so helpful.
Well, hope this review helps you.
