This was a replacement for my 30+ year old Cuisinart which produced SO MUCH wonderful food. Now I have extra features and I’m certain that my new Cuisinart will out live me.

I really like the food processor a lot. So far it has done everything I have used it for very well. The biggest problem I have is that because it is made out of plastic, pieces of the cover and the pusher for the food break of after very little use causing the processor to not be able to work. that problem, of the processor not working, is addressed in the manual,but does not solve the problem of parts breaking off thus not allowing the processor to have all parts properly put together so the processor will work.. I have not mishandled the machine in any way.

Love it! I was always a bit intimidated by food processors, but I finally bought one and can’t believe I waited so long. This one comes with a nice storage case for discs and blades.

Makes a lot of noise. My old 11 cup food processor Is quieter than this.

This is my first ever food processor. I am learning as I go about its capabilities. thus far, it’s easy to clean (hand wash, not using dishwasher). I’ve used the dicing feature and have realized that it has to be cleared out as I go, but works well. Saving me time and counter space while doing food prep was the objective behind buying this particular food processor. It does those things.

My first Cuisinart was a gift I didn’t want 35 years ago. It turned into appliance I couldn’t live without. As it aged I taped it together when the plastic broke and just made it work. I couldn’t imagine any product could replace my trusted Cuisie. I found the perfect replace when I purchased my new Element 13 cup Cuisinart. What an amazing tool. Light weight, solidly built, easy to clean, adaptable for small and large usage…PERFECT. So happy I purchased this kitchen tool.

Received it as a gift for Christmas with dicer. Satisfied with the workings of the processor and dicer love the large capacity. Needed to get used to how dicer works and cleaning of unit but that’s to be expected.

Love the dicer. Awkward to use at first but got the hang of it.

This replaced an old and much loved Pro Custom 11 that gave up the ghost after more than a decade of very heavy use. It’s very powerful, and all the attachments make food prep a breeze. That the entire bowl is sealed at the bottom is a gift – no more having to hold the blade with one hand to prevent leaks! For jobs that don’t require the main bowl, the bowl insert is perfect for whipping up smaller batches. The main blade sits very close to the bottom of the bowl, which ensures that no chunks of unprocessed food are sitting beneath the blade. The dicing kit and the tool case were a nice bonus. If you’re looking for a workhorse in your kitchen at a reasonable price, you can’t go wrong with this model. Highly recommend!

The dicing feature has a learning curve and isn’t perfect for all foods. Watch a video by cuisinart and understand the features

This is a wonderful product! I do have trouble when I am trying to slice celery. More often than not, a whole to nearly whole piece will not be successfully sliced. It is very frustrating! I am using the correct blade, also.
Fausto Okuneva (verified owner) –
Love the adjustable slicing blade! My VERY old machine that I was replacing had a whole separate box of blades and this is so much more convenient. The storage box for the extra pieces is great too.

The Cuisinart Elemental 13-Cup 3-Speed Food Processor and Dicing Kit, Gunmetal is the best purchase I could have made! It is very versatile and well made. This food processor does nearly everything you could want. I researched all the major brands and their various models for over three weeks. Reading countless reviews, before deciding on the Cuisinart Elemental 13-Cup 3-Speed Food Processor and Dicing Kit, Gunmetal! Very glad I bought it! I feel I made the right decision! I really wanted a machine with a dicing feature. No matter the brand, many complain about them being hard to use and clean or wasting a lot of food. So I was very hesitate! I’m pleased to say, upon first use, I loved the dicer on my Cuisinart! I diced 6 medium potatoes with it. Stopping after three to clean the dicing grid with the provided tool. As per THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL’s recommendations! It appears to me, many folks don’t take the time to read through it or are illiterate! Yes, cleaning the grid took a little time to do, but it is still way faster than doing the dicing by hand! The diced potatoes where nearly all perfect in size and shape. With very little waste left over. Clean up afterwards was not too bad either. I used a skinny soft bristle brush to assist with cleaning. Let the machine do the work! The blades are super sharp so you don’t need to push down on the pusher with any amount of force! All you need is to apply light, steady, even pressure on the pusher to assist in guiding the food through the feed tube! I have shredded both mozzarella and cheddar cheeses that turned out perfect! I have chopped pepperoni and made almond butter in the included small bowl, that both turned out great! I really like the small bowl, it saves time. And if you’re careful you won’t have to clean the large bowl underneath it, if you don’t use it afterwards. Nice! I’ve also made pizza dough as well as, pepperoni and cheddar cheese spread. The dough and spread turned out fantastic. Everything blended together well, only stopping occasionally to scrape sides of bowl with included spatula. The adjustable slicing disc works terrific for potatoes, cucumbers, carrots etc. And it’s very easy to adjust and use. The food processor motor is powerful enough to handle most anything and is average for noise level. The machine runs smoothly and doesn’t shake or vibrate much at all. I like the suction cups on the bottom of based to help keep it in place. The included storage containers are awesome and very convenient! This food processor has nearly everything you could want. I plan on purchasing the spiralizer kit soon. And hope Cuisinart will come out with a dicing grid that makes larger sized cubes for this model! If you purchase this Cuisinart, I’m sure you’ll be satisfied! It’s a lot of bang for the buck! Plus, it’s backed by a 3 year warranty, one of the best in the business!
