Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought this processor primarily to ground my own beef from different cuts of steak, and it works marvelously for that job. I have also used it to make mustard. Warning: the plastic bowl easily scratches and stains. There is practically no way to avoid this as anything hard that you try to process is going to grind on the side of the bowl somewhat. Also, I did notice that when I was making the mustard, a good amount of the mix initially splashed up through the seal of the lid. The liquid part of the mustard was well below the recommended line and yet it still made an uncontrollable spill down the sides of the bowl. The processor boasts a 14-cup size, but I can't think of many food items that it would be able to handle all 14 cups without making some sort of mess. Lastly, I did also try to cut some parmigiano reggiano cheese, and it was unable to handle that. Not sure what the problem was, but the manual only warns against cutting cheeses that are too soft. It is one of the hardest cheeses on the market, so I guess there is that, but I would have expected it would be able to handle it better. Instead, the cheese slice that I put in was violently tossed around until it became stuck and started to harm the motor. I used the cheese shredding blade for that, which is exactly what I would expect to work. Some trial and error is expected to be had with this machine. There may yet be a way to cut that Parmesan with it, but I haven't discovered it yet.
