Design by committee
This is my third food processor in thirty years of cooking. This food processor is a whole cluster of bad ideas.
The capacity is limited by the low spindle height in the base. The "7 cup" container only holds 3 cups of eggs or similar liquids before it starts leaking all over the place.
The cutting blade is not properly supported in the center: look at the odd plastic off-to-one-side design in the photos. This means when you put pressure on the blade, like when you push down food to be chopped, the blade stops. Because you can't put pressure on the food, it doesn't shred or slice; it comes out granulated.
The "wide mouth" entry has a plastic cover that raises and lowers but does not remove. Instead of being able to insert large items into the food processor, you have to cut them into three-inch rectangles BEFORE putting them in, and stop the food processor and remove/replace the plastic cover every time you add another piece. Forget about ever putting a potato in this.
There is plenty more to gripe about, but there's no point. Do yourself a favor and find a model that's more useful.
