So far have made some cookies and a tea bread with it. I am new to the use of a food processor so got some cook books to help me. I did notice a couple of things that might be improved. To turn the pulse dial it is a little hard to grip and turn with arthritic hands. If it was made having a oval shape or less smooth suface it might be easier to turn perhaps. The other thing is the blade may be farther away from the side of the bowl making you need to scape the sides. Once that is done you get nice beautiful dough. It would be nice if there was an app to download for ideas on how to use it making some varied recipies. Overall i feel it is a good product with a stong motor to tackle many delicious dishes.
