Cuisinart DLC-8S is Shoddy Shadow of former Cuisinarts
By A
My 1987 DLC-7 is my 3rd Cuisinart. It has had each and everyday use and is worn and has a little problem. I ordered the DLC-8s only to find it can not compare to my old machine even in it’s state of innovative age and I am returning it. For example the cord is short and light weight. The bowl is genuinely smaller…11 cups is actually an exaggeration. The motor is 5.2 amps equated with the 6 amps of the DLC-7 and the DLC-8S is lighter. The resolving flaw nevertheless is the poorly designed switching arms on the feed tube. They are flimsy and an accident begging to happen. I am going to have my old machine repaired and look at the Kitchen Aid processors. Very sad to lose an outstanding product.

Sad end to a noble name
By Joanna Daneman
Cuisinart is practically synonymous with feed processor. When the French were developing them years ago, you couldn’t touch another blender, processor or kitchen appliance that would do more. But the manufacturer changed, and so did the Cuisinart.

My cuisinart bowl cracked at the base. To their credit, they did replace the bowls. Now the knives, the most critical part of the feed processor, are no longer the same.

In addition, if you do heavy breads (we like to do rye) you will find that the stem may overheat and the bowl may stick on it for a bit (until you figure out how to get it off, not easy, let me tell you.) I once even had the plastic dough blade stick onto the stem.

The bowl isn’t so easy to clean, either. I give it three stars because it still slices and dices with the greatest skill, but overall, I would not buy one again. Sad….

There are better choices.
By A
This feed processor is made in China. For the same amount of cash you may buy an 11 cup Kitchen Aid. It runs smoother, has the slicing blades and a mini bowl. The blades are Sabatier and are excellent. We tried both machines and returned the Cuisinart.
