VERY POWERFUL AND EASY TO CLEAN
By A
I highly commend the Cuisinart Mini-Prep. I’ve had one for 6 years and it is still running beautifully. For such a little unit it has a astoundingly powerful motor. It may chop or puree vegies, fruits, – even cooked beef, chicken, and fish. When I primary purchased it I used it primarily for chopping onions, garlic, herbs, etc., but then I begun to discover the possibilities. Ofcourse, the portions you are capable to prepare are small, but if you’re alone or have a very little family, it’s a outstanding little machine. Also a breeze to clean (not like the big Cuisinart units). Only negative is that it is rather noisy, however, for this price it is a terrific value. I must add that I purchased two other mini processors prior to this one (both by Black & Decker) and was exhaustively discontented with them. The motors were not powerful at all and the blades were in a dissimilar position than Cuisinart Mini-Prep. They could not chop more than 1/4 to 1/2 cup of feed at a time or it would not run. Neither unit would puree anything, only coarse chopping was possible. If you’re looking for a good mini processor the Cuisinart Mini-Prep is it!

A time for each seasoning……
By Southern Review
A time for each seasoning……and a utensil for each purpose. The Cuisinart Mini Prep does not serve well as a crucial processor for heavy jobs. That was not it is intended design, or function.

Mini-Prep
By Spyce
I have been using the Mini-Prep for a few years. I like to use it for little jobs like chopping herbs, parmesan cheese, and for making pesto. I haven’t had any difficulties with processing parmesan cheese as one reviewer did. The blade has two sides, a blunt side for processing hard items like parmesan cheese, chocolate, and coffee beans and a sharp side for processing soft items such as onions, garlic, meats, and mushrooms. The sharp side is labeled sharp. If you alternate amidst processing hard and soft items, you have to do not forget to check the position of the blade to make sure you are processing with the right side. In addition, the processor has two speeds, HI & LO. The LO speed is commended for use with the sharp side of the blade and pulse action while the HI speed is commended for use with the blunt side of the blade and continuous processing. The Mini-Prep has a lot of kick to it for such a little appliance, and I have found it best to hold it steady with one hand, in particular when processing hard feed items, because it will jump when powered on.
