Um, I hate cutting up veggies or the like. If I can have a machine do it, sign me up. This is a great alternative to some of the other food processors on the market, because it feels like it has a stronger motor than the others and does a more thorough job. Great for food prep and everything from salsas and sauces to dough for baking. Even great for chopping nuts, which is so much less expensive to do yourself!  This has definitely expanded the options for what I can cook in the kitchen and saves me a ton of time, making a lot of normally out of reach meals within reach for weeknights!
