Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I owned the Cuisinart DLC-10S Pro Classic 7-Cup Food Processor for almost 10 years before the prep bowl started to crack where it connects to the base. I did some research and realized it would be a better value to replace my entire processor rather than just buying a new prep bowl. My boyfriend said he wanted to replace the appliance for me as a gift. God love him, instead of buying me another DLC-10S Pro Classic like I wanted, he bought me this model instead. I feel like the base and prep bowl are made of cheaper materials than the DLC-10S Pro Classic. The mouth is also not as wide as the DLC-10S Pro Classic so I have to cut things up into narrower pieces to fit them through the feeding tube. Also, it feels like the motor isn't has high-powered as the one in the DLC-10S Pro Classic. Lastly, I use my food processor to make pizza dough a lot and flour flies out of this one between the lid and the bowl ALL THE TIME and gets all over the base. This never happened with my DLC-10S Pro Classic. The DLC-10S Pro Classic is still available on Amazon today (1-16-2016) and WELL WORTH the extra investment. To me, the only benefit of the FP-8SV is that it looks better on my counter top.
