This is a terrific food processor except for the work bowl. The locking trigger jams and eventually breaks, and it's difficult to find a replacement (DON"T order a bowl listed as simply a DLC 2014 bowl -- despite what vendors say, it won't match the lid.). Cuisinart has known about this problem for years, but hasn't addressed it. I notice Amazon and other places have it at a deep discount -- maybe Cuisinart is addressing the issue by discontinuing it.

Amazon Verified Purchase
I have never completely understood why these machines are so expensive, and even though we have wanted one for a while, we never felt they met a price that was reasonable. I picked this one up at the still pricey but much better price of about $150 on an amazon special. I was a little concerned from the 3 star review, but decided to take a chance. So far it has met or exceeded all my expectations.
We have sliced vegetables, fruit, leftover steak (!) for steak sandwiches, and made bread dough. It handled everything thus far with aplomb. The motor is perky and powerful, and we have not had a problem at this time with the container. Cleanup is great--very easy to do, and we have been finding a reason to use this for almost every dinner since we got it. This weekend, I'm planning on making hummus and salsa, so I'll use it some more.
My biggest happiness is with the dough setting. We love to bake, and we will be using this a lot for mixing up dough. The slicing/dicing/processing is a wonderful, but secondary benefit to us. I must say that I am completely happy thus far. If I have any problems, I'll update!

I prepare food for my dog (she has a sensitive tummy and can't digest kibble.) I was batch-processing chicken and other meats in a four cup processor, but I could only make enough food for a day or two. This bowl is fourteen cups, which is very large, and the feed tube is wide, so whole boned thighs, or other foods can be dumped in easily.
There have been issues over the past decades with Cuisinarts since the company was sold and the manufacture went overseas. I had a bowl crack at the lug holes (where it fits over the base.) And I had a dough blade bind to the shaft due to overheating. The customer service however had been good. Since I have no issues so far with this unit, I can't complain, but I am being gentle with the bowl, as the plastic feels thinner in gauge than my older unit bowl.
The blades are nice and sharp, something not true of cheap food processors. This minces meat or chops vegetables very quickly. It also can make up enough dough for two loaves of bread. I suggest if you use the dough blade, you do not run it continuously, but pulse it until the dough is sufficiently kneaded, as I had issues with dough heating in past, and the blade sticking to the shaft. In addition, if making pastry dough, the heating is not good for the dough consistency.
