Great Food Processor
by Janet, NM
August 4, 2008

This is a great little processor and perfect for small jobs. I made salsa with it the day I received it and really loved the results. The blades are very sharp so it only took a few seconds to chop an onion. I have many Cuisinart products and love every one of them.

Not a bad little helper in the kitchen! You need to be careful not to over chop anything as these blades are very sharp and efficient.

I wanted a food processor for small jobs my blender just couldn't do, and I didn't want to spend a lot of money. This was the perfect solution.

Last night I chopped onion and garlic in mere seconds. It's quiet and efficient and clean up really was a snap. Watch out for that little blade though, it is razor sharp.

TRAiFFIC MINI CHOPPER

Never thought i could get a little machine like this to do what it does chops nuts, carrois, apples etc, grinds carrots very very well and i can't say enough about it. Yes I would recomend the Cuisinart to any body.

Having the two options (chop or grind) is great. The last chopper I purchased was only $19.99 (that was 10 years ago). This on is a little bigger and it does have the two options, so I guess it is worth the extra money, especially if it lasts as long as my first one. Easy to clean and use.

My daughter and grandson wanted to take this little gem home with them since it was much better than the "old" one which my daughter has. A great addition to my kitchen.

I did a little research on the internet and finally decided on this mini chopper. I am glad I purchased it as it is everything it claims to be. It is quick and handy and small enough that I can keep it out every day to use. I think the plastic container could have been a little sturdier so I am careful to take it apart to clean it, but all in all it is 100% what I wanted and am sure I will get many years life out of it.

Perfect Little Food Processor
by June, CA
March 2, 2012

This is my first food processor. I didn't want one that was huge, but one that was big enough to make some pesto and other yummy sauces. This looks nice sitting on the counter, but is also small enough to put in a cabinet if need be. I think it's a well made product, and has already served me well for several meals!

cuisinart mini-prep-plus processor
by Sue, AR
November 28, 2012

I have used a large Cuisinart Processor for years and wished for a small stand alone one. This is perfect size for me (3 cups). Will use it for mixing dressings, fresh salsa, chopped nuts, and just about anything that my imagination can create. Wonderful tool.

Cooking Tip From the Food Network Kitchens

Use a mini food processor for small batches of food like pesto, or simply for everday use when you don't want to haul out the big food processor. They're also great for chopping nuts for baking bread or cookies- just be sure not to pulse for too long, or you'll end up with nut butter!
