Is the blade low enough to puree small amounts e.g. half a sweet potato (1 oz food)?

Yes! That is what this device does best. Although it is also very good at larger jobs. My daughter purees a large pot of soup with it.

The blade is about half an inch from the bottom - you should be able to use it to puree with no problem.

It is only about 2 1/4 " wide so would probably not work for slicing big vegetables.

Can't say for certain, but the reason I use it so much is precisely because it gets everything--like vegetable purees--out of small bowls, so my guess would be yes.

No. It's not large enough for even a small pineapple. Plus I don't think the blade could handle it. We use this:All Ware Stainless Steel Pineapple Easy Slicer and De-Corer

I haven't used this model, it was a gift...but the previous model called a Happy Bwby Food Grinder, left little to nothing when the plunger reached the blade. If you are doing really tough, dry meat, you might have a little problem. I chopped any meats us tiny and incorporated with a vegetable.

no, the finest blade is not that fine, I think it is 1/8th inch. It is more about creating long noodle shapes from the zucchini that taste great, and are very healthy, that will go with all kinds of sauces. It will not create as many shapes as you would get with pasta machine or dry pasta

I would say probably not. This blade is made for a 1 cup chopper and might be to small.

This is a small food processor. I would not do dough in it unless it's a small amount.

If you want a coarse chop, this won't work. However, it does make very quick work of fruits and berries if you want to purée them. It is a powerful machine with a good-sized capacity.

Nope. The ED of the blade part is about 3.5". You do get a good beaker though and this thing is capable of making great smoothies in it.

Always depends on how long you twist the cover. Short bursts will chop & longer operation will puree. Broccoli, beans, cauliflower consistency would be fine~~I wouldn't try hard carrots, sweet potatoes, etc. That would risk the blades breaking. Also, cashews, pecans OK~~not Brazil nuts. It's a tough machine, but use care. PS Do not put the bowl in the microwave. It will crack...

Yes. For processing raw veggies it takes a little more time, but works great for small batches just fine.

If it is 1/4" opening, yes.I use it for sweet potato's and I half to cut them in 3rds to push them through the cutter.

Up to 1.5 inches it doesn't really help make thinner slices, which was the reason I bought it. I then bought a deli slicer knife that has an adjustable blade that can slice very thin slices. Neither one is as good as a machine of course. The deli slicer's blade is not as sharp though and the wooden one looks nicer if that matters to you.

not sure what a s blade is came with top blade which slices and grates then the blade on the bottom which is 3 curved blades that we used for slaw and sauerkraut. If let run long enough I'm sure it would puree. Had to be careful not to let it run too long for that reason. I was well pleased with the Blender

It will chop it, but not puree it. If want want to puree, get yourself magic bullet. If you want to finely chop, this can do the job. Thanks for shopping with Karenville Mall!

Yes, but within the smaller scale. It's not as powerful, but need not be for a smallish bowl. It also lacks the attachments of a full sized FP, such as grating and slicing disks. If I only require a chopping blade and the job fits in it, I always use this instead of the large FP.
