KitchenAid KFPM770 Food Processor, Brushed Nickel Review

KitchenAid KFPM770 Food Processor, Brushed Nickel
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I received this food processor a few weeks ago and am so pleased! I previously had the Kitchenaid professional 11 cup model and this one is sooo much better! It's amazing what increasing the size by just one cup does! I had this chocolate tofu pie recipe that never quite got blended in my old processer because it was too thick and heavy, but it blends to the smoothest consistency in this one. I no longer have to break it up into batches! Plus, the extra large feed tube is a definate improvement over the older smaller versions.And this one doesn't jump around on my countertop like my older one did a bit. This one just seems REALLY solidly built. Don't get me wrong, Kitchenaids older versions were also the best for their time, this one is just even better!
The design of this model is also very sleek and I'm no longer emberassed having my processor on my countertop.
Please note, this brushed nickel model also comes with an egg wisk, a citrus juicer attachment and an extra work bowl, which don't come with the other models. I noticed this wasn't mentioned in Amazon's description but it should be. That alone justifies the slightly higher price, in addtition to the beautiful stainless finish and larger feed tube.

With its powerful 700-watt motor, this convenient food processor quickly and easily slices, dices, chops, blends, and purees, helping to reduce prep time in the kitchen. Its durable sealed housing creates a sound barrier for quiet operation, while its ultra-wide mouth feed tube accommodates tomatoes, cucumbers, and potatoes with minimal sectioning or slicing needed. The 12-cup-capacity food processor includes three crystal-clear polycarbonate work bowls, which are durable and stain resistant, as well as three precision stainless-steel discs, which include a fine 2-mm slicing disc, a medium 4-mm slicing disc, and a medium 4-mm shredding disc. A stylish chef's accessory case comes included to help protect and keep the blades, discs, and accessories organized. For added convenience, the unit's CleanTouch control pad and base wipe clean easily, and all bowls, blades, and discs are dishwasher-safe. Stylish and functional for today's busy kitchen, the food processor measures 21-1/2 by 17-1/2 by 10-2/5 inches and carries a one-year hassle-free replacement warranty.

I am single and when I cook for one or two I enjoy this Cuisinart Food Processor. It is easy to clean and doesn't take up a lot of space. Excellent for dicing or pureeing tomatoes, herbes, and vegetables from my summer garden for sauces too. When I have extra I just add some olive oil to the batch and instant pesto. I can freeze the pesto for later use. The food processor has plenty of power for those smaller jobs.

Cocktail Cyclone Beverage Mixer Review

I got this for my birthday recently and while it seemed like a cool idea, the gimmick wore off when I realized it was unnecessary. I understand that people want to play god by making small tornadoes, but unfortunately these little tornadoes can also be accomplished by twirling your hand in a clockwise motion. Yes call me old fashioned but I dont need the robots to turn my drinks for me. The batteries die quick, so lets see.. I can save money on batteries by gently turning my hand. They have these things at Bath and Body Works, and all those kind of stores for $10, for $10 I would buy it if you need a shaker, but dont buy it for the gimmick, as it so unnecessary.
One positive note, It can destroy your iphone if Steve Jobs doesn't give us some decent features soon.

Anyone can look like a professional bar tender with this easy-to-use martini shaker--no more rigorous, manual shaking required. Simply add ingredients, secure the stainless-steel leak-proof cap and suction lid, and press the soft-touch on/off switch. Thanks to its clear, 16-ounce acrylic tumbler, the concoction can be seen spinning around inside, a mesmerizing liquid cyclone that will be sure to impress your friends. With the mixing complete, remove the cap and pour the cocktail into a glass from the drip-free pour spout. The unit's portable design makes it easy to take from the kitchen or bar area to the back deck or pool side. Two AAA batteries are included. The drink mixer measures 3-1/2 by 3-1/2 by 9-1/2 inches and carries a 90-day limited warranty.

Cuisinart DFP-3 Handy Prep 3-Cup Food Processor Review

Cuisinart DFP-3 Handy Prep 3-Cup Food Processor
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Having picked this item up on an Amazon special, I must first say that the price-performance ratio is excellent. The machine comes with several blades and a chute attachment. If you have used a Cuisinart machine before, assembly and operation will be very, very simple. That the pieces are dishwasher safe is a boon, as well. I like this little processor; its small size is just right for our empty nest food prep.
There are a couple of things Cuisinart could perhaps rethink. It is awkward to remove the slicing or shredding blade. The plastic used on several of the pieces seems vulnerable to staining. The shredding blade seems, for some ingredients, to "pulverize" better than to shred. It would also be nice to have at least one other size of slicing disc and a plastic chopping blade included. Those refinements would make this machine nearly perfect for me.
Still, this sturdy workhorse is a welcome addition to our kitchen. Those who have smaller amounts of ingredients to prep will find that it is a useful complement to other kitchen tools.

KitchenAid 5-Speed Blenders with Polycarbonate Jars Review

KitchenAid 5-Speed Blenders with Polycarbonate Jars
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have been looking for a blender for a few weeks now. We have started making smoothies at home and burned up our old one. Our girls like the "Chocolate Elvis" recipe from the local smoothie place which contains peanutbutter, bananas, yogurt, ice, and milk. I guess this is really hard on blenders. I bought one at Target 2 weeks ago that had "700 watts peak power" on the box. It died in 2 days. The power spec on the bottom of the blender said 450 watts. I think that is false advertisement. I have seen this on 2 different blenders now.
I have been leery of buying any blender with the little plastic teeth couplers because of all the bad reviews here on Amazon. I also wanted to stay away from anything with only 450 watts.
I was in another store and saw this blender. It has a new design for where the blades couple with the motor. "Commercial quality couplers with 12 interlocking teeth....coated for quiet operation".
We have had it for a few days now and have made some pretty thick smoothies. So far, so good. No burning smell like the one that was immediately apparent with the Target blender. My youngest daughter complanied that her smoothie was "too smooth". I guess she got used to the chunks of ice that our past blenders have left.
Kitchenaid doesn't seem to advertise the actual power specs on their blenders. On the bottom of this one it says that it draws 6 amps. Which is about 720 watts or about 0.9 horsepower.
My only complaint so far is the soft start feature. The blade starts at a slower speed then quickly increases to the speed you chose. This process still throws everything up into the lid, which is what it should prevent. It works fine though as long as you have the lid on. It also works if you start with the slowest speed and work your way up.
Overall this blender seems to be well made and pretty well thought out. The cord storage on the bottom is a great feature. It has much bigger feet than the previous model. So far, I would highly recommend this blender for the person looking for a good blender in the under $200 range.
Added comments:
It is a year and about 300 smoothies later and we still have this blender. I would highly recommend it!!
