I've had this processor about 3 months.  I bought it because it has two lids, I didn't use my other processor much because I did not like washing the lid, this one has a simple lid which is much better. to wash.  Of course, you can only use the simple lid when you are not slicing which needs an opening in the top to add things and push them down., you can only use the simple lid with the spinning blade to either chop or dice or incorporate but that's about all I do anyway.  This lid is much better to wash and the processor is also much better than my other one, you don't have to adjust the speed, you either pulse or use it at its normal speed which is a good speed for everything. you want to do.  It is a very simple processor, and because of this I think it will last a really long time, not much to break.  It also has a very powerful motor.  So glad I bought it, I use it all the time, leave it out on the counter.
