Review: Love this food processor, slicer, shredder - I got my Cuisinart Element 8 and immediately tried it out in my kitchen. As you can see, I made about 2lbs of hummus and sliced up a cucumber, and red and green peppers. I was able to do all of this in about 10 minutes with no mess or leaks. I like the ease of assembly. On first use, be careful to slowly seat the plastic bowl in the base, and likewise take your time getting the lid to seat on the plastic bowl. Once assembled, next time is a cinch and using the processing blade and slicers is quick and easy, I love it, and am enjoying some of the freshly made hummus in between writing sentences of this review. Seems to work great, and the hummus came out creamy smooth in under a minute. My old little 2 cup Kitchen Aid model took about 5 minutes to make hummus and it was still a bit lumpy- not this baby as it has plenty power and quickly processes the beans to a smooth and creamy consistency. I love it and think the Cuisinart Element 8 is a good value as priced on desertcart and I’ll be using it several times a week to speed up my processing, slicing and dicing tasks. It makes these timing consuming and messy tasks quick and easy. Stop shopping, just buy it and enjoy! Review: Solid kitchen tool - After my very old/they don’t make ‘em like that anymore(Sears)processor broke, I was very sad. But I’d always wanted a cuisinart so after 30 years I decided now was the time. This is cuisinart number two, after I purchased a huge 1000 watt cuisinart elite 2.0 model for a great deal considering the wattage, warranty and options. But, I’m not a fan of the gasket it has... while I see it could be useful for certain things, cabbage got stuck around it first time I used it for coleslaw. I packed it back up and looked here on desertcart for something simpler, less trouble. I found this smaller cuisinart, no gasket. With the very simple, click on the workbowl, insert blade, click on lid and process. Cleanup is much easier than the elite model. I am probably going to send it back and get the basic 14 cup for a larger option to have on hand. But I really like this basic cuisinart and it’s staying right here 😉 Highly recommend...for a good price it still feels pretty powerful, does it’s job(s) and cleanup is easy. It’s not so heavy that you dread getting it out either. Glad I got this one! Ps. The stem is a little wobbly but husband thinks it’s ok. There’s a stabilizing hole in the bowl lid. Doesn’t affect performance, I’m not worried about it. Also, chopping blade is ULTRA sharp, be VERY careful, lesson learned there. ## Features - SUPERIOR FUNCTION: Cuisinart’s 350-watt motor for our 8-cup food processor is for powerful food prep performance.

I usually use my processor when cooking for 6 people or less, and the eight cup has always been more than sufficient to handle that quantity of ingredients. If you usually cook for a larger crowd, you may want the 11 cup bowl, but otherwise the 8 cup should be sufficient. You could always process in batches if you only occasionally require a larger bowl for processing. **Q: Can i buy additional discs for this machine? french fry disc? whipping blade? citrus juicer?** A: Addie must have missed “These are the only blade and discs for this item.” in the seller’s response. **Q: Do the slices come out beveled or of equal thickness on the entire slice? Does this attachment otherwise work well?** A: I don’t use the dicer anymore. It’s a poor design requiring too mush work. To dice , I preslice my vegetables lengthwise and then feed them through the slicing blade. **Q: I want to does this come with a case to hold the blades? From one of the reviews, her pictures show a case, but I don't see this listed specifically** A: Mine did not come with a blade case! Had to buy it separately. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love this food processor, slicer, shredder *by J***B on March 23, 2021* I got my Cuisinart Element 8 and immediately tried it out in my kitchen.

I was holding off from reviewing it before I tried it by slicing or chopping multiple things. I’ve had a small food chopper in the past, and I had that for about 25 years until the top fell on the floor and broke. I’ve used that and in combination with an expensive mandolin. So, I never really felt like I needed a food processor. Fast forward a bit. My husband, Johnnie, got me this as a present. I was absolutely amazed at how fast I was able to slice 3 lbs of onions for French Onion soup. I then used it to slice all of the veggies for a Chicken Spinach lasagna and then I used it slice mozzarella and parmesan cheeses. Tonight I used it to finely chop dried French bread into crumbs for stuffed pork chops. I’ve really put this device through the paces. It’s done a good job other than with the cheeses. It left globs not shredded. It really didn’t like chopping the dried bread. It danced all around the counter. I liked the size of the device the best. It’s only two of us, so I find for most recipes the size works. For the lasagna, I first chopped the veggies then shredded the chicken in it, rinsed it out and dried with a paper towel, and then shredded the cheeses. I think a larger food processor would be too large for what I make everyday. Like with the French Onion soup, I ran it until it was full and then dumped out the onions (about 3 or 4 times). The second thing I love is how easy this is to clean. You can just pop it in the top rack of the dishwasher. Next thing I like is using the pulse function for chopping onions. I think I eat onions in about everything I make. I really love the versatility of this machine. I would definitely buy it again. ## Frequently Bought Together - Cuisinart 8 Cup Food Processor, 350-Watt Motor, Gunmetal, FP-8GMP1 - Cuisinart Food Processor Disc Holder, White, DLC-DH --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/16083253-8-cup-food-processor-350-watt-motor-gunmetal-fp-8gmp1](https://www.desertcart.us/products/16083253-8-cup-food-processor-350-watt-motor-gunmetal-fp-8gmp1) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-12*
