Previously owned a simple, easy to use Cuisinart 6 cup food processor that was purchased years ago plus a smaller processor so decided to go to one unit for space purposes.  Purchased the 13 cup model as it offered both a large and small bowl.  Find it more complicated to use and harder to clean.  Do not own a dishwasher, hand wash/dry everything, so cannot thoroughly dry the enclosed tube areas on handle and cover.  Do not think it chops as well as my old model.
