I was in your exact quandry. I went for the Cuisinart because they WERE better known for their quality in food processors. I loved it until the motor burned in less than 3 months and only with 3 1/2 cups flour. Their customer service is BEYOND horrible. They are rude, unhelpful, and LIE. Even though it's still under warranty, I still have to pay to ship it to them and wait for MONTHS even to have it shipped back. I went ahead and purchased it even after reading all the neg reviews because I thought I never would have to deal with CS people since their products are good and last anyway, but that is no longer the case. They are under new ownership and things aren't the way they used to be. Don't give them a cent of your money.

I owned a Sunbeam Mixmaster for over 40 years before it finally died and thought I wanted a KitchenAid. I purchased a KitchenAid and just was never satisfied. It never whipped frostings as well as my Sunbeam did and this may have been because of the 2 bowl size and beater position adjustment. I always had to scrape the bottom of the KitchenAid no matter how I tried to adjust. I would suggest stepping up to a slightly more expensive model of Sunbeam as the base on this model is plastic and not a sturdy as I would prefer but I absolutely love everything else . . . and whipped potatoes are also creamy and fluffy once again.

I have just bought the KitchenAid 5qt. It works great! I'm not familiar with the series you've mentioned.

I sold mine and bought a Keurig so I don't know. You could probably find the info on their website. Having owned both, I would recommend the Keurig Mini. Same size but makes better coffee by far. Huge difference. That's why I sold my Cuisinart.

We have been VERY pleased with our breville oven. Don't remember the cuisinart oven or why i did not choose it

This is only compatible with the Cuisinart brand. But i think Kitchenaid has one also. It works really well with the cuisinart.

I have been a paid subscriber to Consumer Reports for about 30 years and rely upon their research and ratings for my purchases. The Ninja was at the time of my first purchase and still is at the top of the list, with 91%, as far as overall rating out of a possible 100% are concerned however your other choices, Cuisinart CPB-300 garnered only 62% and the Nutri Bullet 19%. Hope this helps

I don't know the difference, but the KitchenAid coffee grinder that we received is great. It is fast in grinding coffee with a touch of a switch.

I really depends on what you are cooking, or for how many, or do you freeze leftovers. I think the 6 quart isi the best for all three. I think this cuisinart size is best because of the options that it gives you. You can cook for one or a party.

I like my Cuisinart 9 cup it works for me I also ordered additional blades and holders.If you have a large family or do a lot of processing you should consider the 12 cup. check out the reviews and consider the cost of a Cuisinart over other brands remember they all do food processingbut some just do it better. Also some brands don't have interchangeable blades. I hope this helps you.

Just to be sure you can call KitchenAid customer service and ask them. http://www.kitchenaid.com/contact-us/. You might want to double check the cost of ordering directly from them as well.

What about taking your machine to a gourmet cookware shop that sells food processors, possibly Sur La Table, and seeing if the current parts fit your Cuisinart. The internet is great....but if nobody buys stuff from regular stores, they will eventually go out of business, and everyone will lose out on the service that actual stores provide - service like this that the internet cannot provide.

Fager simply because I can slow cook in that too. I had the Cuisinart and sent it back for the fager. My DH likes the design and features of the Fager better also.

This one is bad, too. So is the Cuisinart HM-50. I'm not sure why we have to choose between powerful and slow! :)

Yes Alice, on December I bought the KitchenAid KSM150PS and I bought too the glass bowl and fit in perfectly. It's so heavy but very useful :)

I am not a KitchenAid Rep, you would have to contact KitchenAid regarding your warranty. I can assure you, the New Metro Design Beater Blade is by far the best for mixing dough, frosting etc. I would recommend this product to anyone.
