Perfect for small and medium jobsJanuary 29, 2010 slowcookerfrom Los Altos, CA
Pros: easy to store, Functional/Useful, multi-purpose, Performs Well, size
"I use it for almost everything. Making salsa, chopping onions, juicing pomegranates, salad dressing, marinades, pesto. It is very versatile and since I have this mini food processor, I rarely use my larger food processor. I read many product reviews, looked at other brands and settled on this model. I am totally happy with my decision."

Handiest Appliance in the KitchenJanuary 13, 2010 Jeanefrom Sacramento, CA
Pros: Appearance/ Design /Style, capacity, construction, Cord length, Easy to Clean/Wash, easy to store, easy to use, Functional/Useful, Performs Well, quality, size, Value for Money
"I have had a larger appliance for chopping but I use this one the most. The smaller size is just perfect for nuts, fruit, oats, onions, well, whatever. And the ease to clean makes it worth taking out and using. Because of the small size, I am able to keep it in the pantry and not tucked away in a higher cabinet, which means that I actually use it instead of using a knife (for smaller amounts).
Be aware though, the blade is sharp and stays sharp."

"I bought this product about two years ago. In my apartment I stored it on my counter top and it took up virtually no space. I now live in a house and my cabinets have a small shelf inside and it fits perfectly on the shelf. This is great and handy especially if you do not feel like chopping. I would suggest it to anyone!!!"

Pros: durability, Easy to change/Empty filter, Easy to Clean/Wash, easy to store, easy to use, Fast/ Speed, Functional/Useful, multi-purpose, Performs Well, Weight
"I purchased this last year and have found it to be my "Go-to" tool in the kitchen. It makes short work for chopping onions (no tears) and other vegetables. It makes the best salad dressing and really blends the ingredients. It maybe small in size but the quick time makes up for that. You can make a great pesto in no time. And my dressing for Tunafish is a flash. One of the best items I have bought"

Handy food processorJanuary 12, 2010 Anonymousfrom IL
Pros: durability, Easy to Clean/Wash, easy to use, Functional/Useful, Long-lasting, multi-purpose, Performs Well, quality, size, True to Color, Value for Money Cons: the cord design for storage
"This is a really handy mini food processor, yet it is large enough to do serious work. I make batches of pesto, hummus, pate, salsa, and this size is great for me. In fact, it has been an essential part of my kitchen. I received my first mini-prep as a wedding gift. After regular use for 11 years, the motor died, and I missed it so much that I purchased the same model.
My only wish is that there was a better place for the cord for storage purposes."

"I've had a Moulinex Chopper for 20 years and it finally quit working. I was dismayed because I used it almost daily. I saw the Cuisinart on your website and ordered it. I have used it about 12 times. It is wonderful. Very easy to use. Very easy to clean. Onions chop evenly and do not get watery like they do in some choppers. I would thoroughly recommend."

Have been using this for yearsJune 25, 2009 Twygefrom Wilmington, NC
Pros: capacity, Cord length, durability, Easy to Clean/Wash, easy to store, easy to use, Functional/Useful, Long-lasting, Performs Well, quality, size, Value for Money, Weight
"I don't remember when I purchased my current mini-prep, but it was about 8 years ago. Admittedly, it is my second one. The last one, the rotating mechanism died. I think it might have been my fault, as I was chopping rather tough bread cubes and should have used the grind. This is great for smaller amounts that don't do so well in a large processor, or just when you don't want to get the large one dirty. . I use it often for garlic when I don't have time to mince with a knife. I have also processed small amounts of sauces, dressings and condiments. Great for making breadcrumbs, just use the grind choice if the cubes are hard. It takes up very little counter space and the scraper that comes with it is very handy for getting out every bit of food. Very easy to clean and the parts are dishwasher safe. Even if it dies tomorrow, which I don't anticipate, it is a great deal for the price and I would replace it."

Must Have For Small FamiliesApril 4, 2009 vhfvhffrom Hixson, TN
"I used to think, "who needs a food processor" when you just create small quantities. Wrong! This saves so much time, even when multiple batches are necessary such as cole slaw chopping (cabbage). It's easy to clean and store."

All you need for any meals prep'sFebruary 17, 2009 Whtbearfrom Chicago
Pros: no blade changing the one dose it all.
"Having this model for five plus years it has proved to be the right size for day to day lunch to dinner meal prepping. Chop & mince have the power and speed needed to get the food in the oven after a long day at work."

Review 17 for Cuisinart Mini-Prep Plus Food Processor DLC-2A
"This is a great accessory for any cook. Small, but super useful. I use it for chopping nuts, pureeing vegetables, crunching graham crackers (less mess than rolling out), and onions. Be careful though, it will pulverize things in no time, so if you want bigger cuts you have to go slow and watch. Also have a spatula handy, because you'll need it to wipe out the bowl, too small to get hands in there. Also be careful for the blade when you take it out to wash - it is very sharp!"
