I want to use it for a small 7 cup food processor. Can you actually process food while it it is extended out.

Yes, you could use this while extending it out to full extension. This is possible because the weight of what sits on the pull out is supported on tiny rollers that actually roll the top out from over the base. I also extended it and applied pressure to test the stability and it seems as if it would hold an even heavier item if you were to use it under a regular counter top mixer. I love having it to fill the coffee pot instead of dragging the unit out every time I make coffee. Especially nice if you have new granite countertops and don't want to scratch them.

It only pulls it out the length of the counter. It will not hang over the counter--the directions say to make sure this is the case. So yes you can process food on it because it is supported by the counter.

Yes, you absolutely can. Just make sure you fill the canner with enough water to compensate for the longer processing times.

I haven't used it in that way. I use it for chopping vegetables and nuts. If needed just drain it by pouring excess off.

Sorry to hear that.....because I do a lot of 'canning' I can guess that you did NOT leave enough 'head' room or space for the unit to create the pressure it needed to process. Most units require that it be filled not more than 1/2 way.....just like a fryer....you need room for the expansion. Hope it didn't make too much mess in the kitchen and you were able to save the contents (what were you making ?) Mine stopped working after less than a year of use (I used it maybe 5 or 6 times) .....returned it.....however, when it was working, it did great. Not sure I'm going to get another just yet. Hope this was helpful.

Not sure, I have a 14 cup processor and there is a little space left above the blades, the stem falls through the container so that should be fine as well as the blade.. Hope this helps.

I believe you can make it just fine, I have made up to 4 cups of any given recipe in this food processor and it works out fine. I really like this one, it takes so little space on the counter top that I just leave it out all the time. I've blended soups in it and it does a beautiful job. So I don't think 2 cups of mayo is to much.

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.

No. Not at all. It is a food processor. If you have too much liquid, it will spill out the sides. Not meant for watery concoctions.

You probably could, but it's quite a process to put this together unless you're going to make a substantial size batch of anything. And there is a fair amount of clean up involved. A food processor would probably work better.

You can cook any smaller amount up to its capacity. This is per my wife who uses it often.

I have not done that yet BUT EVERYTHING I did for our Thanksgiving turned out great. The Food Processor part was GREAT. Sorry I could not answer your question but hope I helped.

no wrong application the food processor attachment is better utilized for this application. You cant get peanut butter from bottom of blender out cleaning would be nightmare

Hi Tom, I did not get a chance to mix anything in this food processor. I use it once to make Guacamole and then it stopped working for good. Sorry I could not answer your question.

This processor is small, only 3 1/2cups, which is perfect for most jobs, as I usually just cook for two. I don't really know exactly what you are asking.

Yes. We have a food processor in it. Hand mixer. Blender. Salad spinner. It is pretty ample space. I measured it and it is just over 10.5 inches of space

This would be for dry ingredients, or a mixture of liquid and dry. The capacity for liquids is less, since the liquid level cannot exceed the height of the spindle in the middle or it will leak out. I use my Cuisinart a lot and this is rarely, if ever, a problem. Soup, for instance, can be processed in batches rather than all at once, and if you're mixing a liquid into dry ingredients, you can do so through the tube while the machine is running and they will combine before the amount is a problem.

I'm sure you can. I used it yesterday to process 8 oz jars. There is no way small jars can slide out. I am planning to buy another so I can stack in canning kettle.
