Besides the size (13 to 9 cup) and the adjustable slice thickness does it has any more differences with the 9 cup kitchen aid food professor.?

I'm not familiar with the 9-cup. Other reasons I chose this are the liquid seal on the lid, the HUGE feed chute for slicing large fruits. This one has a metal housing. Hope that helps.

I had a Black & Decker 7-cup food processor before, so I really can't comment on the 13 cup Kitchen Aid one. I really like the Cuisinart 14-cup. I haven't tried dough yet, but I've made chicken salad, sorbet, and hamburger (from very lean tenderloin beef), and it was very good for that. Unfortunately, for slicing vegetables, it's no better than my old Black and Decker: stuff tends to slide sideways and get caught between the metal plate and the lid. You really have to have the feeder tube stuffed tightly, and large, harder things like potatoes and big carrots work better than cucumbers or softer things.

Mine was the 11 cup and not the 7. I do understand that the discs and attachments fit both the DCL sizes. The numbers on my discs are DCL-8 and DCL 10. If your discs have the same numbers as these, you'll be fine. Incidentally, they fit even better in the new modell. The stem doesn't stick, making removal a cinch compared to the old one. When slicing, narrow slices no longer remain between the slicing blade and the lid. All food slices cleanly and thoroughly. Also, the lid locking mechanism is far ealier to slip into place without having to try repeatedly, as before. It was just a great move to replace the "dead" one with the new Cuisinart. If your numbers aren't the DC-8/DC-10, I'd call Cuisinart to ask about compatibility with what yopu now have. I hope it works out for you, too, as the new one is just great!

I have two - one older (20 yrs) and this newer one you are asking about. Both are Kaiser. Both seem to be the same thickness and cook about the same. I do have to watch the newer one to make sure it doesn't get the crust too dark as it is just a little darker in color. You say your Calphalon is heavier, so you might want to watch the cook time in case it needs adjusting. Also, be careful you haven't bought Kaiser's cheaper version, which looks identical except of the lock; that one is noticeably thinner and isn't worth having. Good luck.

I sliced an onion on both settings. The thick slices were 7 mm (1/4"), and the thin slices were 2 mm (less than 1/8").

I don't have a ruler handy, and also don't have any bananas handy, but the slices are just as thick as the interstitial distances between the slicing crosspieces, which I assume is identical in all the Hutzlers, though the model number "571" may indicate otherwise, that there may be other models with more or less distances. Then too, in more squishy bananas, one gets a bit of a"banana spread" factor, making a standarized scientific figure hard to achieve.

I have the Cuisinart Prep 7 - 7 cup Food Processor. You might be able to use this French fry disc [DLC836TX-1 6x6mm] on your 9 cup. The reason I say this is the 4mm Standard Slicing Disc DLC-844TX-1 is compatible with both models, my 7 cup and the 9 cup. You can verify this on the Cuisinart website: www.cuisinart.com or call their Product Inquiry number at 1-800-726-0190 7a-11p EST M-F 9a-530p EST S & S. I hope I've been helpful. Do let me know how you like it if you use it to make sweet potato fries. Kimberley, Chicago, IL

I own both versions: gave the original to my parents and by the time I went to buy my replacement, the short version came out. Short Jar is the newer version, likely meant to mimic the newer Vitamix squat jar type. With the short jar, it barely fits under cabinets, but it does fit. Personally, I think it looks better too. Base of the units are identical, except in coloring. Short version has red accents. While I have not done a side by side comparison, I get the feeling that the tall jar blends a bit better. I think the blades are identical between the 2 jars, but the more narrow profile of the tall jar seems to suck material towards the blades a bit better. I feel like I've had to use the plunger a bit more in the squat jar, since it's wider and didn't seem to homogenize as well by itself. At the end of the day, however, for me, the short jar allows me to keep it on the counter and actually use it on a whim, vs. stuff it away and have it fall out of mind. So, in terms of living with it, I'd vote for short.

I don't know. BUT I've used older version of salad master and I LOVE my chef's secret, much better. I would buy them again. I use them with low or medium heat, as are supposed to be used. The reason I like these better than Salad Master is because the chef's secret has a gauge on each lid. It doesn't rattle. I know when I'm steaming broccoli on 4(That's with about an inch of water in bottom), it will be ready when gauge gets 3/4 over. They are a lot easier to clean. My stovetop is glass.

I think so. But I much prefer their other slicer...it has more variety in size and shape. :)

It only has one size to slice and that is very thin. I think I would go with a more versatile slicer. I wouldn't buy this again

You can adjust the thickness of the slices by the amount of pressure that is placed downward on the handle. Less downward pressure makes thinner slices.

I didn't notice differences when comparing the description of the two. I use this pizza oven 2-3 times a week. It is great for making pizza, frozen snack items, and reheating crispy foods and pizza to be as tasty as when they were originally made. This is perfect to make food for one or several people without heating up your oven and house. I have put chicken nuggets, frozen shrimp, fries, cheese sticks, and marinara sauce on at the same time and an entire meal for three people was made in 15 minutes, saved energy, and minimum clean up.

The Pizzazz Plus is just the way the manufacturer is branding the newer version of the appliance, indicating that it can cook pizza "plus" lots of other things, like chicken wings, etc. The newer model has an improved timer, in my opinion-the older model that I owned years ago had kind of a touchy timer. Also, the non-stick finish seems to be better on the newer model. Get the "Plus" model, even if it's a few dollars more-it's worth it. You will use it a lot!

Hello, no the slice thickness is determined by the depth the cutting blade is set at - and as this is a basic, plastic product, its pre-moulded therefore not adjustable.I trust this helps.

i cant give an exact size, but I will say that it is a big bowl. it is the same size as the KA!!! I think it is actually better. my mother has the KA and hers does not have a lift in the bottom but the Hamilton beach does which is good in helping with the mixing!! I love it!! I bake a lot of bread on a daily basis and have never had any trouble!!!

Its been awhile since i bought mine, but I remember that there were two that were very much alike. the only difference I could find is that one was a little more "tailored" with nicer lines on the handles and a nice scoop in the lid below the handle so your hand could fit into the handle better. A bit more refined, which is why I chose it. Look closely and you will see. Again, I am going by memory, and not by the model name.
