I spent a long time researching processors in this price bracket and range of features. I homed in on the Cuisinart and had to wait several months as it was out of stock. I am so glad I waited. It has exceeded expectations in every detail and functions. It is very well built. It looks a bit daunting at first with all the accessories but it took no time at all to understand the concept and start using. I am very happy that it’s bread mixing capacity is strong. I wasn’t expecting to be able to make a standard size loaf but no problem at all. No hesitation in recommending.
