3.0 out of 5 stars I'm hooked on my cuisinart food processor, but..., January 20, 2010

I've had a Cuisinart food processor, almost since the brand started to be sold in the United States, which was a lo-o-ong time ago. The Large Pusher Sleeve Assembly used to last as long as the bowl, but not any more. I go through two of these pusher sleeves a year (sometimes 3 if I'm really unlucky). Cuisinart must be making them out of shoddier plastic than was earlier the case. I'm sticking with the Cuisinart brand (I've never had a problem with the food processor motor), but I wish the company had retained its original high standards concerning the manufacture of the machine's plastic bowl assembly.

The little tips that are part of the locking mechanism usually break off first, and I can still get the food processor to work by pushing down on the inner sleeve with my hand, but eventually the whole plastic tab breaks loose, and then I have to replace the whole large pusher sleeve assembly.

You will see cracks develop in the whole sleeve right away, and it also discolors rather easily, but you have to have the sleeve in order to run the machine.

3.0 out of 5 stars Could last longer...., March 21, 2010

The product works perfectly for about and a half until the clips break on the back of the pusher that hold the pusher down and engage the safety mechanism. Then you have to buy a new pusher. I am now ordering my fourth replacement. Each one has lasted about 1.5 years. I am happy with its function, just not its durability.

5.0 out of 5 stars If it's broke...fix it!, March 10, 2010

This piece was the only part to our Food Processor that had cracked and become virtually unusable. The unit itself is about 20 years old, with no issues, so it made no sense to buy another one for $200+. This piece is an original factory replacement part, not some second-hand cheap knock-off. It's the real deal and is just a solid as the original part. We hope to get another 20+ years out of it. For less than $30, it's a bargain, especially with Amazon's FREE SHIPPING. If you are debating, debate no longer. Buy it!Cuisinart DLC018BGTX Large Pusher Sleeve Assembly
