| Customer Reviews: Perfect for non-foodies March 19, 2010 fatchancemn 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
Years ago I had one of those 12 cup processors and I rarely used it. It was a pain to clean and it took up too much of my limited counter space. Because the Wolfgang Puck 4-cup has a chute you can grate or slice huge quantities by using your own bowl to catch the material. The chute has a sliding door that closes when you are using the blades. One of the first things I tried to process was lemongrass. I used the thin slicer blade and sliced it directly into the bowl, then the blades chopped it finely. Worked great! The motor on this machine is powerful enough to make peanut butter in less than a minute. I made pesto in 10 seconds. I couldn't be more impressed with both its size and power. It does stand fairly tall (see specs.) which might be a consideration. This is not a cheap little toy. It is well designed and executed. The silicone rubber feet work as suction cups to hold the machine down. It is easy to assemble and rinse. The storage drawer for the slicing and grating blades keeps them handy. If you use a food processor continuously and for large numbers of diners, then you should look at the big ones. I cook for two and I love my Puck processor. And the price was unbeatable.
Hope you read the instructions August 21, 2010 diane717 I hope by now you have figured out that the cord is a pull-out - stored INSIDE the unit.
Sorta-kinda good, depending on what you're doing March 15, 2010 Joanna Daneman (Middletown, DE USA) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Firstly, this is an excellent unit for space-saving. If you want a food processor and you have a tiny galley kitchen, live in an RV, this may be a great choice. But be aware of limitations.
Function:
1. The unit can shred fine or coarsely, chop and mix with a blade or slice. But the metal disks are not as sharp as some premium food processors, so I find the slices or the shreds are a bit mushy. Not as crisp and sharp as I'd like. Also the coarse shreds are short--hard to get those long shreds of cheese or vegetable.
2. The unit has a small drawer underneath to hold the slice and shred disks. You leave the chopping blade assembled on the stem, along with a diverter disk (for continuous shredding/slicing into a bowl for larger than the 2 cup capacity) So this takes up very little space. It is tall-is however, so I put the bowl and assembly separate from the unit into my cupboard.
3. The cord winds up into the unit (neat) but it is short so you need to work on a counter near the outlet.
The unit is easy enough to use. For continuous shredding or slicing, which is the application I use most, you open a door in the lid, install the diverter underneath your disk of choice, and shred or slice into a bowl placed under the spout. You can feed carrots, cabbage, cukes, broccoli continuously into the feed tube and out comes shredded or sliced veg. Great for slaws, which I happen to love. You do have to cut the cabbage down to bar-shaped chunks to fit the feed tube. It's only 2 inches wide.
The chopper is assembled on the bottom of the same stem that holds the disks. If you leave it in place, and place a disk above it, and DO NOT OPEN the port on the side for continuous use, your shreds will get chopped. So either remember to remove the chopper blade when slicing/shredding or else first as you assemble, pull open the door. Otherwise, if you are shredding into the bowl, your shredded cheddar will become chopped cheddar.
I find the shreds and slices are a bit mushy, and the outlet spout clogs sometimes when shredding a lot (cheese gets caught) but on the whole, as a tiny food processor for not a lot of dough, this is a good choice. If you are serious about dough-making, speaking of dough, or doing larger batches of processing, you will want a more capable unit with a much larger bowl--at least a 7 cup. This is a good, quick, inexpensive and functional solution if you don't want to lay out extensive cash for a better unit and it's compact and tidy. Three stars because the shreds are mushy and because the unit requires some thought to get it right (removing the chopping blade and/or opening the outlet spout door.)
get an extension cord out January 3, 2010 Hondo (Virginia) 10 out of 14 found this review helpful
The unit works fine so far, but I have not tried it on challenging foods. The first thing that I have noticed wrong with the unit is the 6 inch power cord. This is the first idiotic design mistake, I hope I don't find any more.
