Description

The Cuisinart Mini-Prep Plus Food Processor is the perfect little helper for small food preparation, from chopping herbs to finely grinding hard cheese. Its versatility lies in its efficient 250-watt motor and special auto-reversing SmartPower blade, making the Mini-Prep versatile enough to process both soft and hard foods in the 24-ounce work bowl. In addition to the 24-ounce work bowl with handle, this mini food chopper includes a stainless steel blade with sharp blunt edges, spatula, and instruction/recipe book. The Mini-Prep Plus is as easy to clean as it is to look at, with a wipe- clean touch pad and dishwasher-safe removable parts. With a BPA-free design, the Cuisinart Mini-Prep Plus Food Processor comes with a limited 18-month warranty. This little 250-watt workhorse comes in handy when a full-size food processor is unnecessary. The 3-cup work bowl is just right for making pesto or a salad dressing, and two receptacles in the lid have pinholes for one or two oils to stream into the bowl while the processor is blending a perfect emulsion. It's also ideal for chopping and grinding. Pressing the "chop" button deploys the sharp edge of Cuisinart's patented reversible blade to chop onions, herbs, or bread crumbs. Pressing the "grind" button whirls the blade in the other direction so its blunt side can grind nuts, coffee beans, or cheese. Compact at just 9 inches high and lightweight (it has a plastic body), the Mini Prep Plus can be tucked away in a cabinet, and the little spatula accompanying it goes into a drawer. It carries an 18-month warranty against defects. The plastic work bowl and lid are dishwasher-safe, but the stainless-steel blade should be hand washed to protect its edges. --Fred Brack

Great little unit when you don't want to drag out the big boy. Minces garlic well 1 or 20 cloves. Good for making emulsified salad dressing. Chopping up panko to get finer.

    • Great kitchen staple
Color: Brushed Chrome Size: 24-ounce Pattern Name: Processor
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. ... show more

    • Cuisinart Vs. KitchenAid Mini Choppers
Color: White Size: 3 Cup Pattern Name: Processor
When I starting searching for a mini-chopper I was surprised by the huge rating difference between the Cuisinart DLC2 and the KitchenAid KFC3100, so I bought both and did a side-by-side comparison. The only explanation I can give for the ratings difference is that Cuisinart buyers must have higher expectations. For most operations they have nearly identical performance and for some operations the Cuisinart is the clear winner. Onions: Many Cuisinart reviewers panned its performance here, claiming it made onion purée, but most KitchenAid reviewers praised its onion chopping ability. I found almost no difference between the two. Maybe its an issue with the instructions - for chopped onions you must use a few short pulses. A few more pulses and you get minced onion - more than this and both give you onion puree. I wouldn't say either is great at chopping onions, but both are equally mediocre. I also tested chopping nuts, and making breadcrumbs with similar results. Both performed about the same for a course chop, although the Cuisinart produced a more even chop on the nuts, but its when you want a really fine chop that the Cuisinart starts to shine. The first reason for this is the grind feature found only on the Cuisinart. This spins the blade in the opposite direction which allows the flat, back-side of the blade to impact the food. More importantly, it redistributes the food, so if you've got a couple of chunks that refuse to be chopped, a short pulse in the opposite direction helps it drop into the blade. For perfect, fine breadcrumbs I alternate between the normal chop mode for a few seconds, and grind for one second. The other reason the Cuisinart gives a better fine chop is that it does a much better job of cycling the food through the blade. This is a real key when you're working with softer foods like spreads, pâtés or purees. When I made a cream cheese spread in both choppers the Cuisinart did a far quicker and better job of pulling the ingredients down the center and into the blade. The KitchenAid kept larger chunks bobbing on top. If you're making dips, spreads or baby food, the Cuisinart is the hands-down winner. On the practical side, both choppers were equally easy to clean. Both have small holes in the lid for pouring in liquids on the fly, but only The KitchenAid has a slot for dry or thick ingredients - if that's important to you. Overall, I found the Cuisinart easier to use for several reasons. First, the Cuisinart blade drops on easily, while the KitchenAid blade is keyed and I found myself turning it several times before it dropped in. Second, the KitchenAid lid must be removed first before you can lift off the bowl, but on the Cuisinart, the bowl and lid can be detached as an assembly. Finally, the Cuisinart blade has a "handle" that extends to the top of the bowl like a popsicle stick allowing you to remove the blade without getting your fingers in the food. After all my testing, I really can't understand the large ratings difference between these two. Neither is perfect - you'll never get a perfect, even, course chop with things like onions or chocolate, but they do come in handy. For many uses either one will give you pretty much the same results. Because of its advantage with softer foods and its ease of use, I recommend the Cuisinart. ... show more

    • Great little food processor!
Color: Brushed Chrome Size: 24-ounce Pattern Name: Processor
I've had a large, heavy 14-cup Cuisinart food processor for years, which I love and have used for everything from making bread dough to shredding cheese, pureeing soups or other blender-type tasks, dicing vegetables, and even making nut butters, oat flour, and more. But it's so large and heavy and was a pain to get out for small things, plus the large work bowl wasn't well suited for some of these smaller tasks, either. So, I finally decided to get one of these. It's great! It's lightweight, easy to get out or put away, and is very convenient for small tasks. In my case, I often use it to make just a cup of oat flour or to "blend" blueberries and bananas into plain yogurt as an easy breakfast. It's so convenient I've used it almost every day for the last month (since I got it), unlike my large model that I only got out if I really thought the effort was worth it. It's also fairly easy to clean. The manual says all removable parts ares dishwasher safe, but I've mostly been hand washing to make sure it's ready for the next day (but the dishwasher has also worked). There are some disadvantages, one obvious: it's quite small, so it's not suitable for larger jobs (or heavier--the motor says 250 W; my large one is 720 W). Even with a 4-cup bowl, I can't imagine making much more than 1 cup of oat flour or similar dry ingredients before it gets to be too much. But that's perfect for me -- it's actually better than my large one for this small of an amount. It's also quite loud. I got ear plugs to wear while using it, which I know sounds excessive but really seems like a good idea with this unit. Other disadvantages include a non-waterproof lid (or really anything-proof): there are two small holes in the top, apparently by design. This mostly isn't a problem unless it's probably too full -- again, you won't really get a full 4 cups -- and the contents are watery; in actual use, this has rarely come up for me. Also, replacement parts practically cost more than the unit itself, which I discovered after I considered buying another bowl, lid, and blade (to worry about washing less) since I'm using mine almost every day. Some may also not like that the unit is gray but is actually plastic instead of stainless steel, though I don't personally mind. All things considered, this is a great unit as long as you're aware of the capacity and power--but it works well for its size! If you're like me and want an alternative to your larger food processor, I'd consider this one (but if you're looking for mostly larger jobs, probably start with one of those instead). ... show more

    • Just perfect 👌
Color: Brushed Chrome Size: 24-ounce Pattern Name: Processor
Just the perfect size. I was excited to purchase this item to use for my every day cooking. My first use was it to chop parsley and it worked great. The blades are very sharp, so it chopped the parsley perfectly. When I took it apart to rinse and use it again to chop tomatoes, I noticed it was not working. I thought, great it broke already after the first use. I was really upset. So I started the online return. The online return took me to the trouble shooting page (Thank goodness). I realized when I put the Top back on, I didn’t align the tab that goes in the back. Sure enough, it worked 😂. Since then I have used it to make Salsa, Hummus, Breadcrumbs and chopped vegetables. I love this little machine, such a great value for the money. Would definitely recommend. 👍 ... show more
