I would only recommend it after giving the information below to a friend. Just beware - it may not be what you want if you make a lot of stiff bread doughs or use it for grinding out your own protein. I love the hinged lid & the click in locking bowl & the different attachments (especially the multi-blade attachment) & the color of red is perfect too. However, I did use it to mix breakfast sausage a couple of days ago, pulsing to mix the ground chicken & ground pork & spices. As the meat got balled up the processor began rocking quite a bit. I was so concerned that I held the unit down while pulsing & even tried to scrape down the bowl, redistributing the meats. It did mix it up (loving that multi level blade!). Right now this is the only thing about it that I am not a fan of. I’ll try the whipping attachment soon.
