I bought my Elite Collection Food processor about 9 months ago, and I am in love with it! I can't believe the power it has! I make a lot of nut-based gluten free energy bars and cookies, and it processes everything without effort. I am used to my previous machines making noises and the motor emitting burning smells when I tried to grind nuts. Not this one! It is really amazing, and I love it! I actually kissed it a few times :)
