Style Collection Expert Prep Pro | 2 Bowl Food Processor With 3L Capacity | Midnight Grey | FP1300U

I bought this to dice, to variably slice and to make kitchen work easier. I used to have. Breville Sous Chef, and it’s great , but costs x 2. I thought this would do a similar job. It dices well, but only has one size and does waste some. The variable slicer is nice, but cheaper models with two discs do 90% of your jobs anyway. The main headache is , after breezing through some food prep, you need clean a whole bunch of things. The lid, three pushers, the bowl, maybe the inner bowl, the spindle and a couple of blades. It might be fine for large meal prep, but is too much hassle for day to day use. The machine has a good motor and the slicing disc is a dream. The dicing grater is okay, but not very versatile, in my use. The chopping and other plastic blade are just like my 50$ food processor. I think I will stick with my basic processor for now, less stuff to wash up each time…. It’s not a good as the Breville, but it costs half the price. I would either use a basic FP or spring for the Breville, the clean up was easier and the power was incredible. Minimal waste.

I love this machine! Today I've made two pots of soup and a batch of scones and it breezed through the lot with ease. Blending, mixing, cutting, grating. Big enough to blend my entire pot of soup. The storage cases are a fantastic idea, no more missing parts. Be warned though, this machine and all the utensils are big, its also quite tall when together. It takes up a lot of room in your cupboard. I had to rearrange my kitchen, but if you have room it's a great piece of equipment.

This is a brilliant product. It is good quality, easy to use, easy to clean( goes in the dishwasher), performs well and is very good value for money. And I have only just started to discover all the amazing things it can do. I well recommend this food processor.

It's so much fun to use, sometimes I stay in the kitchen for hours playing with it.

Love it!! The range of things it can do is great - so far, I've tried chopping and slicing different veg and grating potatoes and it's been a breeze. Great results every time. Love that it's all dishwasher safe too. Was initially daunted by the amount of stuff in the box but it's surprising easy to use and once you figure out what you will use most often, the other parts can be stashed away.

I had been considering a Magimix to replace my Kenwood but having bought a Cuisinart mini chopper/grinder, I was impressed enough to buy their food processor. My main requirements are for vegetable preparation. The slicing and grating attachments were easy to fit and didn’t leave me with loads of food unprocessed. I sliced potatoes, sweet peppers, mushrooms and onions, varying the slicing size fairly easily. Grated cheese very fast. The. Dicing kit is a separate set up process and method but worked well with onions, potatoes, carrots and courgettes - it is extremely sharp! General chopping in the large bowl is great and the mini bowl is very well sealed. I have not tried the spiraliser blades yet. Obviously there is a fair amount of washing up as with any food processor. The only downside for me is that the lid is so snug that it feels stiff to remove, however, it is unlikely to leak for this reason. There is an effective safety locking mechanism whereby, unless all the lid parts are properly engaged, the motor will not start. It took me a few goes to get the hang of this. I considered removing one star regarding ease of use only because you can’t just throw it all together quickly but need to set up carefully and take a bit of time to learn how to use everything. The instructions provided are easy to follow though.
