## Questions & Answers

**Q: is it bra free?**
A: Nope, no free "bra".  But my wife said if you head over to amazon's womens lingerie, you could find some good deals. Downside, they aren't free either.

**Q: Is this fairly quiet or is it noisy?  My current machine howls ike a damned soul in torment, which is why it is gathering dust in the cupboard.**
A: Many food processors are pretty loud but this one is fairly quiet. I love this machine because it's not so big or heavy and quiet

**Q: how do you operate it**
A: It is very simple to operate and comes with good instructions.  The main thing is to be sure that the lid is locked in place.  It will only work with the bowl and lid locked securely in place.  There are two speeds: chop and grind.  Chop is for softer items and grind is for firmer items.  You can also use the grind setting if you want to pulse it once or twice in the opposite blade direction.

**Q: Has anyone used this to make something like a pie crust, where you would blend flour and butter into a coarse meal, then add water?**
A: The machine is not powerful enough- in fact if you load it over half way with nuts it starts to bog down- I believe you will burn out the motor if you try pie crust.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect Little Kitchen Helper!
*by J***H on May 27, 2025*

This mini food processor is a total game-changer! It’s super easy to use, clean, and store—exactly what I needed for small tasks like chopping veggies, making sauces, or whipping up quick dips. I have a full-size processor, but this one is way more convenient for everyday use and doesn’t take up much counter space.If you’re tired of dragging out your big machine for small jobs, this is 100% worth it. Compact, efficient, and reliable!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Like the original mini processors...Finally, it works with no issues!
*by C***E on February 15, 2025*

We had a mini food processor like this from KitchenAid we had for 10 + years and it worked great. It went caput and we replaced it with another KitchenAid but the set up was different (improved...not in my opinion). IF you didn't make just the right connections you had to empty and try again. Truly annoying and totally inefficient.So we searched for a replacement and found the Cuisinart and it does not disappoint. It works similar to the design of many years ago with one additional safety feature which is not an issue at all. LOVE it, I feel like I should stock up in case they change the design and they become useless.Pro's: Super easy to attach the cup, turn and lock in place. Center component and blade are all one piece so it is easy to clean and no parts to lose. Chop & Grind features, all I need and works for everything I needed this for. Does not take up much space. Large enough capacity to chop 1 bag of Costco Tenderloins (I do cook and cut them in half before placing them in this. Easy to clean.Con's: NONE, Absolutely not one thing we do not like about this convenient, handy kitchen appliance that does the job well and is easy to use.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great kitchen staple
*by S***S on June 23, 2025*

Mainly bought it for the chopper aspect as our old one broke however it works well in all functionalities. The design is clean and modern and is easy to use as there are only a few buttons. Blade size is good, seems like it will be durable and useable for some time. It was also discounted compared to the other colors which was a plus given that it looks sleek and modern.
