KitchenAid Food Processor~!! Wow!

I had a feeling this item would wow me, but let me say for the record that it has literally taken my breath away. I'm not a stranger to Kitchenaid small appliances, have the Professional 600 575 mixer that sits on my counter with a crown on her head, she's so regal, the small hand held variety. Always been happy. But I was blown away with the sheer size of this (can't call it a gadget) product.

I haven't revved her up yet, but it's just a matter of time that I do. I have all the pieces out of the box and am going to use it tonight....

I wanted this baby two years ago and didn't spring for it. Instead I bought a genius chopper, which for the life of me, I can't get to chop unless I chop the item up before I chop it, otherwise it takes my full strength, my body weight and the luck of the Irish to get the food to go through it! I used to just chop by hand but my hands are not cooperating like they used to and I'm frustrated. I won't be anymore! Holy Potato wedges!

Big Salads all summer long, stews, lots of soups... I'm going to be a Kitchenaid Madwoman!

Have you gotten yours? Whatdoyathink?? {#emotions_dlg.w00t}

Really? No other Wows??

I'm floored.

Look in your messages (maybe in Junk) but QVC sent a video and it's pretty good. Yes, there's a lot of attachments but don't let that overwhelm you, the directions are pretty basic and you just have a lot to choose from.

I'm still waiting. I am going to buy bulk onions in anticipation for it to show up.

I got a KA food processor as a wedding gift in 2000. I just loved it. I finally gave it to my daughter when my husband bought me a Ninja Mega System. Unfortunately i wish I still had it whenever I need to shred or slice something. I was contemplating buying another ine this week when I sliced a piece of my thumb off with a mandolyn, you won't be disappointed, just dont by a Kitchen Aid blender.

That's a good idea... I did carrots and cooked them... but I'll probably get going on something more tomorrow.

It's a gorgeous machine. I ordered Red (my kitchen accent color) ... love it!

Oh my~! That's awful. I hope you're on the mend, those injuries are so painful too.

I bought a Vitamix blender & won't need a Kitchenaid, and Bitamix is an outstanding machine. I've had it for about five years now and it's great, highly recommend!

I was amazed as well! I did not expect it to be so enormous! It dwarfs my kitchen aid mixer! I've only used it to grate cheese so far, I'll look for the video you mentioned. I got those genius choppers too, I'll be glad to get rid of those!

I love my KA food processor too. Next to my KA mixer, it's the best small appliance in my kitchen. I use it almost everyday to chop veggies and even make pie dough. Enjoy!

I am a bit confused..why would you get rid of Genius choppers when the KA only makes one size dices unless you are talking about slicing/shredding ?
