 Great Small Food Processor~ October 14, 2008
I've had this for a few years and I love it! It is just the right size for 1 person for most things. Once in awhile I do something I would have liked a bigger one, but I don't really have room for one.
The blender is heavy and solid. The plastic base that attaches to the blender and processor are a bit flimsy so I'm careful with them.
The cheese grater and slicer attachment are also great. Wouldn't have minded a dough hook or something useful, but guess with the small bowl I wouldn't need it anyway.
 Don't ever buy reconditioned items from this company September 11, 2008
I bought a reconditioned version of this blender from another online site. It turned out I didn't need to use the blender for most of the summer and the warranty period expired on the reconditioned product. Of course right after that, I had to use the blender. It worked ok for a bit but soon pretty much became worthless. When it did work, it did a poor job of mixing the stuff I put into the blender and the food processor wasn't all that great either. Avoid Cuisinart.
 Flying machine and melting plastic August 30, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have used many food processors before, I do not use them harshly, I was even able to use my very cheap first mini processor for 3 years. Yet, this is by far the worst I had.
Pros: 1.Very powerful machine that this strength cause trouble for you.
2. Being able to use a 2-in-1 machine
3. Several buttons for different tasks
Cons: 1. The machine parts, although supposedly strong and appropriate for dishwasher, is not safe to put in at all. The food processor's clear plastic bowl melted in the first wash and have taken an oval shape in the dishwasher, and I do not even use heated dry. I had to squeeze it to fit the lid on it for each time I use it.
2. Extremely loud. My son can never stay asleep upstairs once I start it, pretty similar to a strong vacuum cleaner in noise level.
3. Machine is so powerful, so when you actually process food, which it is supposed to do well, you have to hold on the machine very tight with both hands, otherwise, the machine can fly (I mean literally) especially if you are processing hard food such as dry bread, onions, or nuts, or trying to make dips.
4. That typical burning smell that all cuisinart processors that I used have. It begins after 5-6 seconds you start.
Just beware and if possible, choose another one.

Cuisinart BFP-703 SmartPower Duet Blender/Food Processor, White
A fine idea, Poor execution! Mine lasted three months. It failed while under warranty. I called Cuisinart, there solution? I should pack it, pay to ship it, and include $10.00 for them to mail it back, after they fixed it. And they offered no warrenty about the repair.
No "we are sorry that our $80.00 item is in fact an expensive paper weight designed to break." Instead, they feel that I should pay more than 20% of the original cost to get them to maybe fix it right. Stay away from this product and this company.
 We like it so far! June 18, 2008
We've had it for a little while now. We've made smoothies and used the cuisinart blades to chop veggies. The blades are super sharp so be careful! The time savings by using this unit versus chopping by hand can be somewhat diminished because you then have to spend time cleaning the unit. However, when doing large quantities of chopping, it's very useful. When using the product as a blender, it seems to perform just as well as any other blender we've owned. We still experienced the smell of the motor as we were trying to get all those chunks of frozen fruit blended. It's definitely not a powerhouse such as the type they have a Jamba Juice but it will work fine for our occasional smoothie making times.
All in all, it's a decent product for the price paid.
