Cuisinart DLC-5 Food Processor — 

The Cuisinart DLC-5 Food Processor is one of my favorite kitchen gadgets.

I've used it for salami (ultra-thin!, couldn't cut it that thin with a knife, so it lasts longer), cheese, veggies, purees, salsa's, bread dough...almost anything you can think of in the food department.  I don't like to take a lot of time when I cook, so this has been a great addition to my kitchen.

It has great safety features to prohibit one from accidentally slicing off one's fingers.  These safety features do make it a little difficult to put together if, like me, you try to do things without first reading the instructions. However, even for a do-er, not a reader, the instructions were easy to follow.

One drawback is clean-up.  If you are doing a lot of chopping/prepping, it is worth the time it takes to clean later.  But if you are only doing one or two items, I find it easier to just chop by hand and do less clean-up.

Overall, a good purchase.
