Bad Points

  • Basic instructions.

  • No ON indicator light.
  • OK stability, unit has suction feet that can become unstuck.
  • Very noisy during processing.
  • Possible hand access to slicing / shredding blades through large chute, no safety lock feature.

  • Processor blade performs better than the dough blade for pastry.
  • Bowl is not sealed around spindle so overfilling the bowl can cause ingredients to spill onto unit.
