Recommend your food processor

[laurack]

My cheap cuisinart has served me well for over five years. But I need a new food processor. The lid is leaky so gets flour everywhere, its too small and sounds kindof scary now.This time i want a large bowl, one that can fit enough for a double crust pie. (So it would fit 3cups of flour and some other things)

also preferably not too expensive. 

Recommend?

We have the Hamilton Beach 8-cup and I love it. It works really well, although I did accidentally rip the liquid spout off a few years ago (no worries, duct tape fixes everything). Here's the one we have: www.homedepot.com/p/t/202569976?productId=202569976&storeId=10051&langId=-1&catalogId=10053&ci_sku=202569976&cm_mmc=shopping%2d%5f%2dgoogleads%2d%5f%2dpla%2d%5f%2d202569976&ci_gpa=pla

But I think they may have a newer version, or at least one that doesn't have the liquid spout (which is more annoying than useful anyway): www.walmart.com/ip/Hamilton-Beach-6-Cup-Food-Processor-70450/14320927?findingMethod=rr


ETA: I regularly use mine to make a 9-inch double crust pie, and it fits fine.

I highly recommend my Cuisanart. Though I did not think it was cheap.

I have the Kitchen aid food processor, but I know it is not cheap. I have had it for over 8 years now and it is still as good as the day I bought it....just sayin

I think the Cuisinart is the classic for a reason. I have had the 14 cup for 10+ years, and use it constantly, and it is still in perfect condition. Lots of pie crusts have been made in it, too

The one I have I think was about 80 dollars for the blender food processor combo, not cheap cheap but not expensive. 

Which cuisinart do you have?

I've had it for 5 years, and had to replace the blade once, otherwise it works well.

I think I have that one too. We also have a kitchen aid one (kosher reasons for having two) that was around $150

Get on with it! :-)

I have this one in black www.kitchenaid.com/flash.cmd?/#/product/KFP750PK/

I love it!

Good Luck!

I just looked up the blender processor combo I have and mine is a 3 cup processor. So I feel like isn't a 11 or 12 cup going to be an enormous machine?! I think I need to go look at these in a store before I buy one!

I just found the one charlielove has on amazon for 110 which seems like a bargain, but it says it weighs 17lbs! Holy shiz

Do people use these to make bread? Just curious

[charlielove]

It is damn heavy. I've never made bread in it.

I got a KitchenAid food processor for Christmas and I love it. It came with lots of different blades and slicers too.
