Overview
Cuisinart's 14-cup food processor pairs a 720-watt motor with an extra-large feed tube, a stainless slicing disc, a medium shredding disc and a stainless chopping and mixing blade, aimed at bigger batches than a compact processor can handle.
The oversized feed tube is built to take whole fruits and vegetables without pre-cutting, and Cuisinart rates the motor strong enough to knead bread dough. Parts are dishwasher-safe, which matters given how often a bowl this size gets used for weekend cooking.
- 720-watt motor with extra-large feed tube
- Stainless 4mm slicing disc and medium shredding disc
- Stainless steel chopping and mixing blade included
- Brushed stainless finish, dishwasher-safe parts
Who it's for
Suited to cooks who batch prep meals, slice or shred whole produce, or knead dough regularly and want one large-capacity bowl instead of a small chopper. Not for anyone short on counter or cabinet space, since a 14-cup bowl is bulky to store.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Long-time Cuisinart owners called it a reliable workhorse, with one buyer on their third unit after years of good service. Other reviewers ran into functional problems: two said the machine stopped working after minimal use or that the lid would not lock down to let it engage, and a few called performance disappointing. One buyer who purchased a used unit received it with a cracked bowl and food residue inside.
