 Knife died September 28, 2008

I bought this knife less than a year ago and have used it about 20 times. It barely works now. Blades don't get through tender meat. I don't recommend this knife.
Exercise in utter frustration August 20, 2008

Where to begin? The motor is so light, that most of the time it cannot even cut through a marshmallow. Good thing it comes with a 3 year warranty, because now - in it's first year - we're up to replacement number three!
Please note that when you do contact the Cuisinart warranty department (and you will!), they will first try to convince you to exchange your purchase with Amazon.
The stand is laughable since it is extremely unstable and the electric cord *always* gets caught at the bottom when removing the handle, which means that both stand and second set of knifes go flying over the counter virtually every time you take out the handle. This could have worked if the stand were wall-mountable. It is not.
Expensive junk January 12, 2008

Expensive junk! It is amazing how poorly made this product is. I used this knife for the first time last evening and half way through carving a large stand up rib roast the blades stopped working and the motor kept running.
Upon inspection, I found that a plastic gear connected to a steel worm gear had stripped. I can't believe some idiot designer would combine a critical steel gear with a plastic one; the unit was doomed from the start. Cuisinart, which made a name for itself by producing quality products certainly has fallen into shoddy manufacturing.
I would recommend this item only to those who want to cut pudding, anything harder is bound to destroy this flimsily constructed product. Ugh!
Needless to say I am returning this in exchange for the Black and Decker EK700 which is highly recommended by "Cooks Illustrated" and is less than half the price.
 electric knife December 9, 2007

I saw electric knives reviewed in the New York Times and this is the one that was highly rated. My old knife was 20 years old and I didn't realize how much improved the new ones are. Thanksgiving turkey carving was a pleasure.

This knife is noisy. Had a 20 year old electric knife that had a better handle and was half as loud. I was hoping for a huge improvement to the old knife but it feels like I have a power tool. The cutting is ok and gest the job done but sometimes I just want to shut if off because it's so loud.
