## Questions & Answers

**Q: Just received the kitchenaid 5 cup food chopper and cannot figure out how to remove the lid.  manual was no help.  what is the secret to taking it off**
A: Push up with your thumb UNDER the BLACK part of the pulse/on power button and turn the lid with your left hand to disengage. To put the lid back on, position it to the left side of the handle and push the pulse button back in place until it clicks. Use both hands to disengage lid from the bowl. The bowl does not need to be on the base. This step should have been part of Step 1 in the disassembling the food chopper section in the manual.

**Q: About how long will charge last-runtime? I know it depends on what you are chopping, but just a rough estimate?  40 onions doesn't mean much to me, tx**
A: I think they mean 40 onions gives a poor frame reference for actual run time. If you were to fully charge it and then run it empty, how long would it go?

**Q: Can this use to grind almond flour for macaron?**
A: yes

**Q: What are the dimensions of the machine? Not the packaging**
A: The entire piece with top installed to base is less than 12” tall and roughly 5” in diameter.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great medium sized food processor
*by B***H on 5 November 2021*

I recently received this food processor and have already had the opportunity to use it several times. It's easy to use, cleans up in the dishwasher, and does a nice even job of chopping. I would like to address some of the complaints I've read here in the comments. First, the bowl and lid attach very similarly to all Kitchenaid food processors. I get that it might be different than how others work, and might be tricky if you aren't familiar with it, but one you understand how it works, it's easy. I've had no problems at all getting the bowl and lid to lock into place and to release. Remember -- don't force it! If it's difficult you're doing something slightly off. With regards to the complaints about sturdiness and quality -- no, this is the not same quality as my big Kitchenaid food processor that I bought in about 1985, (which still works, btw, but I can't get a new bowl!). However, I paid somewhere in the range of $350- $400 for that one back in 1985! So, no, I don't expect this food processor to be as heavy duty as the old one. Still, the motor runs smoothely, the base has some weight to it, and it works just fine! I don't expect it will last 40 years like the last one, but for the price, that's ok. I almost didn't buy this one based on some of the reviews. I'm glad I took the chance and tried it. It's a great little machine, works well, and doesn't take up too much room on my counter.
