The Cuisinart elemental food processor comes with a 550W motor and the model I am reviewing comes with an 11 cup work bowl.
Inside the box will be a Dicing kit, together with a storage case. I will show you how well the dicing kit works by dicing onion, bell peppers, and also a potato.
There is an adjustable slicing disc which you can manually rotate to the markings by selecting any size from 1 mm to 7 mm.
The Cuisinart food processor also comes with a reversible shredding disc which you can use to shred foods to achieve a fine shred or coarse shred.
There is also a Chopping/mixing blade and a stem adapter which should be used when using the reversible shredding disc, the dicing grid, and also the adjustable slicing disc.

![Best Food Processors 2024 [don’t buy one before watching this]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/ERYN3zv4ze8/mqdefault.jpg)
This video was way more helpful than the instruction manual that came with the food processor lol
Thank you, i'm so glad I could help!
Yes I agree!
Thanks!!
You are so organized and structured in the sequence of the video and the explanations and presentation of results! Thank you so much for a wonderful presentation of info! 🎉❤
Got mine at Cstc Costco. Had storage for all the parts. Your video was better that the ad video!
Your review was STELLAR!!! I was definitely overwhelmed when it arrived today. Mine came with an additional storage case, which is nice but the case is as big as a toaster! It has a lock on it though, which I imagine I’d appreciate it if I had small people in my kitchen. I’m struggling to reassemble the smaller round case that holds the slicing and dicing attachments. I also purchased the juicer and I’m not sure I’ll keep it. It comes with lots of parts and no easy way to put it together for storage. The people who engineer kitchen appliances must think everyone has an abundance of cabinets 😂
Thank you again for an excellent video! I’ll be a forever fan!
Oh, thank you! I'm glad it was helpful! Have fun with it! 😁
Your honesty is greatly appreciated!!
Thank you for pointing out the fine/med shredding plate. Helped a lot!
No problem! I'm glad I could help!
Your demonstration video is very good. Now I understand how to use the dicing grid. Thank you.
Thank you, glad I could help!
I learn more, watching your video and reading the book that came with the machine. I have the one that came with the case for the other disks. Thank you.
Awesome, glad I could help!
Thanks very much l bought a Food Processor/Blender yesterday tried it out today l have more understanding with the flipping of the disc shown in your video Thanks again
You're welcome! Glad it helped!
Great review 👍🏼
Thank you for doing these reviews, you do a great job. Can you do a review of the Breville dicing food processor? I thinking of getting it, but wondering about it’s dicing ability and now I’m wondering if it wonders around the counter! I hadn’t considered that!
11:36 "....I mean, what's that all about?" SUBBED. xox
I like mine, but I like my manual chopper because it was frustrating trying to get the right size to process through the small hole. But it does great for slicing and shredding! Love your review!
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for sharing your experience too!
This was a great video. I just got a different model of this food processor, but I've never used one before and didn't know where to begin. Now, I kind of get what everything does and how to use it. And most of these tips even translate to my model.
Awesome! Glad it was helpful! Happy processing! 😁
i have one like yours but mine has storage for all the parts, thank you for sharing how to use the machine, helped me a lot to understand how to use it after watching your video, thank you so much!
Awesome, glad I could help!
Thank you for your great presentation
You're welcome, thanks for the comment!
Great video, very well explained
thank you! Appreciate the comment!
Great video but I was hoping you'd test the dough making process as well.
Cuisinart offers 3 yr warranty on its electrical products. Your presentation so clear, complete and analysis excellent. And, am impressed with the use of this 11 C Elemental FP with dicer kit. The new Custom Core FP 110 or FP 113 from Cuisinart include storing the blades inside the FP, along with opportunity to add a blender, extractor-juicer and 4 Cup chop and grind to the same bowl, if one chooses. They are a very good company with affordable kitchen utility products making homemakers life in the kitchen easy.
That's awesome, thanks for sharing, I will keep an eye out for the newer model!
great review!
thank you!
Thanks for talking about the cheese under the lid. I have a KitchenAid food processor that has a large gap between the lid and the shredding disk, and there's always a big chunk stuck under the lid that didn't get shredded.
Yeah, no worries, It's always a big factor for me, so I like to include what I see! ☺️
Do you like this one or the KitchenAid one better?
my slicing disc doesn't stay on the number I pick. is there a trick for that? please help me
This was a nice video! Great job I really enjoyed it. . I'm still on the fence with purchasing a food processor. I do like this one with dicing kit. I'm wondering how long this has held up for you.
Thank you, I appreciate the comment! Unfortunately, the motor gave way. It was a shame because I really loved how it processed everything!
Good to know tho! Sorry motor gave away! I m thinking to go with the other cuisinart not elemental. I think its too tall for my caninets!
@@MeemReviews
Hi, I was wondering how long was it before the motor went out??
Great demonstration👍please know that there is a storage case for the shredding and slicing disc. Mistake the storage case I’m referring too is for the 13Cup elemental
Thank you! Yes, I think it also depends on where you buy it from, every place seems to offer different bundles.
Thank you for this helpful video!
I'm torn between this Cuisinart food processor and the Kitchenaid 13 cup food processor (which you also have a video for).
I will mainly use it for dicing. So I was wondering which food processor is better for dicing?
And do both devices dice hard veggies well(carrots, red beets, sweet potatoes, etc.)?
Thank you so much!
You're welcome. They both are good, and they both handle hard veggies well. But here is what I think. Cuisinart has a bulky separate storage case, it's lightweight and the buttons tend to stick, although I did like how it processed food, dicing and chopping, not so much the slicing, it was very awkward.
KA is very sturdy and it's all stored together. The buttons are much easier to use, dicing and slicing is very good. It's just heavy and most likely needs to stay out, provided you have counter space.
If you can get the KA for a few more $, usually around the sales time I would opt for that one.
I hope that helps.
@@MeemReviewsit helped me, because I'm thinking between KA & Breville (has + for many dicing options)
@petermaier3725, I'm glad you asked because that's where I am at, and I want to use for the same reasons you do :-) Thanks
@@MeemReviews Thank you :-)
4:50 - that safety feature seems to be standard now. My existing food processor does the same thing, the large feed tube needs to be inserted a minimum distance before it trips. It's not an issue with the smaller pushers because the large feed tube is fully inserted when you use them.
I imagine it's to prevent finger slicing.
Yes, that makes sense. Thanks for sharing! 👍🏼
Mine came with a storage box for all shafts and blades along with one for dicing kit...hummm
I just bought a KitchenAid 13 cups food processor, thank you for your demonstration on CZcams videos (I am debating to switch it to Cusinard 13 cups) your recommendation ? Thanks
KitchenAid:
Pros:
*Very solid and will last longer.
*Great for storing all accessories
*Buttons are better than the Cuisinart
*Can process longer period and gives decent results
*Easy adjustable slicer located on top, can just adjust without removing the lid
Cons:
*It's too heavy to move around.
*Food gets trapped a lot under the lid
*Hefty price tag.
Cuisinart
Pros:
*Not too heavy
*Good price tag - half the price of KA
*Not a lot of excess food around and under the lid
*Processes food really well, gives good results (better than KA, i think)
Cons:
*Can't process too long, need to keep stopping and starting at least every 60-90 secs otherwise motor will burn out.
*Not enough storage for accessories
*Buttons tend to stick or need more pressure applied
These are my thoughts, I hope it helps. If you plan to use a lot and don't need to worry about moving around the counter, go with KA. If you have storage space and patience, go with Cuisinart!
My great attitudes 💐for your advised about these products, last week I went to Bedbathandbeyond switched to Cusinard 13 cups and paid $249.99 plus 20% discount coupon (KitchenAid was $189.99)
I bought an Expert Pro (UK). Works in a similar way in principle. Your instructions are way better than the really bad instructions they provide. Thankyou🙏
One question - does the shredder and dicer work for the small bowl?
I'm not a 100% sure, but I'm guessing it may not because the diameter size of the dicing kit may not fit the diameter of the smaller bowl...
@@MeemReviews thank you 🙏
Unable to find the product with the extra disks which i need
Hi thank you for your video. I have a Cuisinart 11 cup element food processor and I would like to get the dicing kit do you have the model number for that? Not sure what to get
Depending on where you are located, I found this on the Canada website. Hope it helps. www.cuisinart.ca/FP-DCP1C.html?lang=en#lang=en&start=1
When using the dicing blade are you pushing the food down hard or just lightly guiding it?
No, just push it in lightly, it will do the work, you'll feel it going down.
Nice tutorial..
How much does Cuisinart food processor cost?
Thank you. Depending on where you are located, in Canada I got it for C$140 during Costco sale time, from C$190.
how is this blender holding up..I watched your video earlier ..so was wondering about an update ....thanks
It did give me problems and I ended up returning it. The shredding disc would refuse to spin and the motor just started burning out. 😢 It was a shame because I loved how it processed foods!
@@MeemReviews oh my... I just went ahead and bought it the other day ..I thought maybe you were not responding to questions on this video anymore since it was older.....hope mines holds up ...if not I may get the cuinart ppro custom or another brand ....thanks
Do you feel that it looses a bit of power when you’re shredding cheese? I have only been able to slice cheese once and now it won’t do it
Yes, I did find at times the disc wouldn't rotate. I ended up returning it because of that reason.
I knew it couldn’t just be me @@MeemReviews I returned 2 of them. It turns out the motor is weak. It was only 500w
The one I got has a separate storage for everything else
Plus a few extra excesories
Awesome, lucky you! Hope you're enjoying it!
Is this good for making butter?
Honestly, I haven't tried, If i do make butter (which i've only done twice lol) i use my Kitchenaid Chopper that has a whipping accessory included.
Thank you for the video!, very informative and it saved me from buying it. I actually was a bit amazed or almost frightened about the engine. It seemed to crack down when you used the shredding disks. I want to replace my magimix. The only reason for this is because I can't use the bigger wide feed tube. There is unfortunately a security feature active for EUR versions. Also the storing of the accessories is much better with magimix. SO this Cuisinart is quite a disappointment 🙁
You're welcome, I'm glad I could help, you could consider KitchenAid or even Braun EasyPrep if it's available where you are. Reviews of these are also on my Channel if you want to check them out.
I cannot remove the stem adapter. What's the trick??
It should be easy to slide up and off. Hopefully, you managed to remove it by now, perhaps it just needed a little tug to loosen it?
8:20 for slice disc explaining
yes, I already have chapters marked.
Beans and broad beans comes in different size when using slicing
Ok
How is it holding up after one year?
Unfortunately, the motor started wearing out after a month of using it, so I returned it.
THis video was very helpful. The video from Cuisinart and the instruction booklet are not good at all. Thanks
You're welcome! Glad it was helpful! 😁
I hope you read this comment. I can’t get mine to turn on. 🤷♀️ everything is locked into place, (yes, it’s plugged in) but it won’t come on.
Ok.. I wonder if u need to try another outlet? Also, the buttons are a little stiff? Perhaps apply a bit of pressure?
@@MeemReviews I tried a few different outlets. I try the buttons again. Thank you for your response
I like my OLDER Cuisinart processor better-quieter and better quality-has the lower speed induction motor instead of the noisier geared down universal motor.For the crumbs-older one just takes a couple pulses-DONE!The newer machine sounds like you are running a drill in your kitchen.
Well do you have a time machine to get a new old one?
@@youtubedislikes3756 check for older machines at yard sales and thrift stores.
Same with Kitchenaid...they used to have a quiet induction motor with automatic speed control which mine has now use a loud standard motor with normal speed control. Magimix still have induction motors with automatic control so will be my choice when my Kitchenaid dies..
@@seamusellis1450 looks like Magimix is a holdout-hope they don’t go to universal motors. Those are based on Robotic-Coupe which is the commercial line. Those havevinduction motors.
Disappointed too coz there's no dough kneader.
Right!?
butter Is not just heavy cream wtf...butter is fat globules
