⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Compact, Powerful, and Extremely Easy to Use
This Cuisinart Mini-Prep Plus is a great little food processor that does exactly what it’s supposed to do. It’s very easy to use, powerful for its size, and handles chopping herbs, vegetables, and even hard cheese without any issues. The 24-ounce work bowl is a good size for everyday prep, and the reversible stainless steel blade works efficiently. Cleanup is quick, and the compact design makes it easy to store when not in use. Versatile, well built, and an excellent value—I can’t find anything to complain about.

Quality mini food processor speeds prep and easy to clean
We always cook for family during the holiday and wanted an easier way prepping everything from garlic (mince) to onions (dice) to parsley and more (Italian meatballs for the win).Many food processors struggle to get consistent chop – but this one works GREAT – very good consistencies and at all sizes. Saved us a lot of time and even small cuts we get every year. (Don’t judge). It is easy to assemble and comes ultra sharp, It’s now living out on our counter and a regular part of our prep.

Mini food processor
I previously owned one yrs ago but smaller version . So I upgraded! Perfect for someone who needs small portions. Easy to use and lock . Works well with chops and grinds as efficiently as the larger sized models . Love the stainless steel design and can keep on my countertop for easy access without taking up space .

Sturdy little machine with a couple of cons…
This is a good little food processor. It took me a while to pick one, especially because there are so many out there. Here are my lists of pros and cons after having this little guy for months:PROS: It is light-weight and easy to store as it pretty small, it is easy to clean, grinds up stuff really fast (it is a powerful little machine), and it is perfect size for a bit of hummus, or grinding up beans or nuts for a recipe.CONS: It is SO loud – every time I use it I feel like I need to wear earplugs. This is my first ever food-processor, so noise may be typical. I was just surprised by how piercingly sharp the grinding sound was. Also, It is almost impossible to emulsify anything unless the liquid I’m pouring in is the consistency of water as that is all that will go through the tiny holes in the top. So if there is any thickness at all to the liquid using to emulsify, I either have to revert back to a blender or pour in a bit and blend and pour more then blend again. I wish the little area of the top with the holes was removable to do this. I make little batches of hummus and dressings, and it would be nice to have the ability to pour in consistently and slowly.Even with these cons, I will use and keep this little machine until it no longer works. It was worth the money, and as a “food-processor newbie” it was way easier to use than my blender.

Great product and what I like easy to clean and small enough to store

Very easy to use
I have the larger Cuisinart food processor and really like it, but it is much heavier and too large for chopping a small amount of walnuts. I bought this one primarily just for that purpose. It is very easy to move around, very easy to assemble, operate and take apart to wash. It does chop the nuts very well-the size of chopped nuts is determined by how you operate the 2 control buttons. In the past I have had excellent customer service from Cuisinart in case there is a problem while product under warranty. The price of brushed chrome color model I purchased from Amazon was very reasonable.

Mini-Prep Food Processor a Great Product!
Really great for small jobs like chopped veggies, salsa, dressings, marinades and dips- easy to use, fast, powerful and easy to clean. Very safe if careful with extra sharp blade when washing. Highly recommend! Great pricing on Black Friday too.

A nice processor for learning or for an adjunct unit.
How did we ever get by without a food processor ? As we learn about foods from other cultures we find we need to learn new ways of food preparation. Sometimes we even wind up learning “shortcuts” for food preparation. Sometimes a new device leads to new shortcuts. The food processor is a combination of all of the above. However, even with the best new devices food preparation comes down to the skill of the cook. A good cook can make any device seem great. This Cuisinart is great for 1 – 2 person meals or as an adjunct in the preparation of side dishes. It is also great for learning how to use a Food Processor. It is not as easy as it is portrayed in the advertisements. It does have the power and capacity that you need.

This is a must have tool in our kitchen , the first one lasted 15 years or more and is still going strong , the blade housing has developed a crack and that makes it no longer food safe the replacement blade was almost as much as the new one so we just replaced the entire machine ! MUST HAVE MACHINE EXCELLENT VALUE !

This is not suitable in our family . To operate this a additional requirement is required which I don’t want to buy.

NOT FOR THE EU COMES WITH A US PLUG!!!I can smell the engine when I run it even when using an adaptor. I think the wattage is too high for the EU. Also can’t put the barrel in the dishwasher or food gets stuck in side the handle and it has a special type of screw to unscrew it so I can’t get it clean. Don’t buy.
